It’s certainly operating in the red.

“The only thing that makes sense in my head at the the time was whole Obama thing with forcing transgenders to use bathrooms.”

I’m in grad school right now, but otherwise I’d be living with my parents. To be quite honest, I love my parents and love living at home. I guess it should be embarrassing since I live in the US, but oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Very much the norm in Brazil. I see no reason to move out unless I get married or when I go away for my PhD!

That started with the WWII generation. They came home and the economic push to get them back and earning, while building the military industrial complex. This is why the 1950s has the earliest average age of marriage. My mother was one of them. She was married, the first time, at 17.

Yep. I’m 31 and consider myself the oldest side of the millenials, because social media/internet was a huge part of my coming of age years. Got dialup when I was 14. I know that remembering dialup makes me a relative old-timer, but my young adulthood was also dramatically influenced and shaped by the dawning of…

It's still the norm in many developed countries. If you get along with your family, then why not?

*sheepishly raises hand*

I paid off my student loans by living at home. I tried living in the city for a year after college, but half of my paycheck was going to rent and I wasn’t saving any money at all, so I moved back to the suburbs and commuted to work instead.

I’m 35 and sometimes get lumped in (when they say “born in 1980 or later”) and I just don’t see it either. I think a big distinction is growing up pre-internet/ post-internet.

I and my boyfriend both work full time. We both have BAs. Together, we can afford a one bedroom apartment. Alone? Not a chance. Many people have to have housemates, one way or another. Having your parents be your housemates is a smart decision.

Living with your family was completely normal before the baby boomers were all like this isn't American we need to spend spend spend everyone in their own 2.5 bedroom with vinyl siding!

It’s amazing how many sites I had to check before I found one that didn’t have “From my reading and research” excised - I suppose because it’s more salacious without it. It disgusts me that so many outlets, including this one, would work to make a statement about possible child sexual abuse more salacious.

Good context; thank you.

Oddly enough, here’s the full quotation, not reported by Jezebel:

Being a fake martyr for a cause seems pretty insulting to the people who actually have been molested.

I agree it’s a bit disingenuous to just focus on the receipts when previous coverage has highlighted how radioactive this film was for distributors in the first place. They could barely find anyone to release it and, of course, it played in only a few markets with little fanfare. When your subject matter is so…

I feel like it’s a bit uncharitable to call An Open Secret a bomb even if yes, technically it was a total box office failure, but how many screens did it even open on? And how much money was available for any type of promotion? And how many people go to see documentaries in the theater in the first place, especially…

I never thought his original statement indicated that he was personally molested, only that he was aware of it and it was, unfortunately, a common occurrence.
