I just heard her tell this story on Matt Bellassai’s podcast, “Unhappy Hour,” and I felt deeply compelled to wash my own hands multiple times afterward due to reciprocal horror at the whole thing. AAAUUUUGGGGHHHHH.

Nobody tell her about the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918 which killed between 40 and 100 million people. And everyone knows 1918 was way before gay people existed, so it’s not like it was sent as a plague for our sinfulness like modern plagues.

No, but he pulled off being a nutsack really well.

“Marciano propositioned her by inviting her to meet him in Scottsdale.”

I sincerely hope 20-something years from now this little girl, now a full grown woman, has an eureka moment and say to this guy “You were a police officer, a figure of authority with the task of serve and protect. You had my mom right in front of you, in desperate need of help. And your answer to that human being,…

I hope this shit gets smashed over and over and over again. The school’s attempt to sanitize the situation and turn it into some optimistic bullshit is disgusting. Women don’t need to be memorialized, worshipped, turned into super heroes or pillars of strength they need to not be fucking raped, beaten or killed. Fuck…

It *was* jarring. I think for a lot of us it was cathartic as well. The things this man did, the persons of authority who allowed it, the sheer volume of it all... We are not so far removed from our ancestors who murdered and enslaved our way across the hemisphere, and treating him to this language *feels* right…

It’s just you.

Thanks to both jez and deadspin, esp, for staying on top of this coverage.

i honestly never understood his show

If I’ve learned one thing in life, it’s that nobody gives worse advice about “men”, than men. I have no idea why we’re like that.

I feel like this is an issue thats greatly exaserbated by the patriarchal bullshit of Christianity. Obviously men of all faiths are generally worthless but I feel like Christianity adds an extra layer of knuckle dragging to the equasion. Theres no other institution that goes to such great lengths to disguise sexist…

White women, put your money where your mouth is. Since you are the most “coveted” by men, and hold the most ‘pussy power’, you need to use that power to voice and enact change.

Or the fear of being alone

Show public support, amplify the needs and the voices of people of color, interject when someone like you gets their goddamn panties in a wad because someone implied your race elected Donald Trump (it did).

Here it is: white women NEVER want to be blamed. Ever. I can’t count the number of times I have heard white people argue that one black person represents all black people. But somehow you are exempt from this methodology? The division is not false, it is super real, and your comment shows exactly why we still live…
