This whole Johnny Depp/Amber Heard thing makes me stomach turn every time. I’m capable of seeing nuance and how this could have been a mutually abusive relationship, but I believe Amber overall.

I get the strong sense he’s doing this trial in the US so he can try to sway the jurors with his roster of famous friends who say how awesome he is, which seems actually like a plausible strategy, but ultimately he seems like a very rich guy bullying his bitch of an ex-wife into submission with litigation, a move…

He has a real issue about women’s weight, based on his texts. Not particularly surprising since he previously dated ultra skinny Kate Moss and his ex-wife Vanessa went from a healthy looking weight to very skinny after getting together with him.

I am genuinely confused as to who is telling the truth between Amber and Johnny. I’m not really Team Anyone, but yikes, having a long, close friendship with an asshole like Manson is chilling.

Alexis to me has the greatest character arc of any TV character ever.

Oh man, I missed that fact when the Schitt’s Creek cast was doing their media blitzes but it makes SO much sense and I love it. I just watched a TikTok this morning based on the concept “What if Alexis Rose suddenly found herself in the Bridgerton world?” - that character was brilliantly written and I hope it sticks…

Annie Murphy based a lot of Alexis’s weird, affected mannerisms on Schitt’s Creek on watching youtube clips from the Kardashians’ show. She couldn’t stand to watch full episodes. That really made me relate to her & admire her performance even more.

You know he’s going to stop showing up for work one day because he never thought the show would have so much murder and mayhem.

This headline feels so dismissive for a very real case of abuse

If she was white, would she be referred to as a “woman”?  She was only 16.  She was a girl.

“I wonder if she ever considered turning those roles down in the first place”

Instead of apologizing for “taking roles” from darker-skinned actress, I wonder if she ever considered turning those roles down in the first place and suggesting one of her equally qualified, darker-skinned peers take her place instead.

One of my closest friends died suddenly of a brain hemorrhage. Sure, this could have been a suicide or an overdose, but why don’t you let them do an autopsy before you notarize it?

All I can really say is thank you for the writeup, Ashley. She was wonderful and a tremendous force and her loss will be felt.

TBH, she’s a tough read. Especially the work geared toward the academy. I think the slog is worth it. RIP and thank goodness she got her flowers while she was alive to appreciate them. 

Oh for fuck’s sake. Very few people would tell their brother to own his behaviour or seek counselling, or they might tell them to get counselling while ALSO doing everything in their power to help their brother not lose their job or go to jail. Especially when said brother’s fall from grace would also inevitably…

From, the article, it looks like the prosecutors did argue that the defendants’ lawyers were deliberately striking black jurors, which would be illegal. This is known as a “Batson Challenge”: https://definitions.uslegal.com/b/batson-challenge/

Would we be writing this article if the toy in question was inspired by a female celebrity? There's a line between Jenna Jameson making a mold and a company making a mold inspired by a person...
