LW1: Holy shit, I actually agree with Jane! But also, look, even if your coworker is in a shitty relationship, he is an adult and can figure that out himself. If anyone does give him advice, it probably shouldn’t be you, a woman who’s interested in him and who he knows is interested in him. You’re not exactly unbiased…

“There’s also a frightened little girl in there.”
Ew. You just know he’d rolled that image around in his thoughts for a while.

Came across these tweets yesterday — years ago, Ellen Barkin (who has recently come out and said it was because she resisted sexual harassment) was smeared in the press as “difficult”. One of the resources they used to smear her was director Blake Edwards, who sued studios over and over for petty shit and once grifted…

Any woman who comes forward, rich or famous, has to put herself out there to be subjected to any number of mentally and physically invasive discussions and procedures to prove what happened. Her body becomes evidence and her life is scrutinized. She has to face down her perpetrator, his friends, family, people she…

So much this!

I know that there are bad cops out there, but if anyone knows what cops have to see everyday, they would give pause as to what their lives are like.

but much worse he talks bad about me to our four year old daughter.

When the world is too much and I can’t stand everyone sounding off on twitter, I think of her.

“And I’m getting really sick of guys named Todd

Oh no, she’s clearly just an awful human being all around. That’s just it- the only thing she has going for her is her looks, and that will leave her too.

Yep, same. But the bad news is is you’re the piece of shit that would violate an elder by posting her naked probably didn’t wake up that day with a newly acquired level of asshole behavior. She’s likely been gaslighting people, flirting with her friends men, cutting in front of people in busy lines, lying on forms,…

Seriously. Is she as fucked in the head as he is or something? He wanted to have sex with a 15-year-old girl. ain’t no coming back from that. And that weird, awful boner pic of him with his son right next to him sleeping? I would’ve torn his windpipe out for that alone. She must be as dumb as a rock— and as amoral.…

I’m incredibly old, and I remember well that my friends and I watched American Bandstand religiously (mostly on my best friend’s TV, which was a huge, clumsy, black-and-white cabinet set, an RCA if I’m remembering correctly—this was back in the day, when TV stations signed off late at night and came back on with the…

Said the (potentially white) male. I found this sign unnecessarily condescending. This is not how you win people over to helping in the fight.

You’re assuming a ton of stuff about people you do not know. Most of the women who showed up are angry. Maybe Trump being elected was a tipping point, and if so then who cares why they came? They were there, and hopefully will do more to protest in the future.

An actress who has achieved a certain “omg I LOVE her!” status which absolves her from any wrongdoing in certain circles of the internet.

I wonder if I swap this out tonight with the original if my two-year old will notice.

Well of course you’re right, but why approach people on your own team who are trying to help with cynicism, sarcasm, and alienation, simply because they are white? 

In second grade I managed to convince a bunch of high schoolers I was psychic. They were doing some kind of psychology experiment, using us a test subjects, and the group that got me was having us predict colored shapes on cards. Well, they were in a specific order, and I could see the answer key. And I really liked…
