Didn’t he cheat on her too? I seem to recall her also falling prey to the Oscar curse.

That was my takeaway from the article too. Who checks to ensure that girls get their periods?? Where did she get the squirrel blood? I’m choking

He was an Oprah once (I beleive it was part of the Making Faces press tour since it featured heavily) and it was one of the most delightful hours of that show that I ever saw.

Well researched and written. The biggest takeaway is that she should have listened to the people around her. Even the song you posted in the article, had she dropped the blaccent and gone with Valley girl ala kesha in the first part of her career that would have been a cute little underground sleeper hit.

Nobody is crying any tears for this poor, beleaguered white girl who was handed a music career based on her whiteness, while a few people tried to steer her away from the cultural appropriation she so needed to commit. Fuck her.

This is amazing — thoroughly researched, relentlessly argued and really compellingly written. Thank you for making my morning with it!

This is cute. You can tell they’re having fun together. Also educational! I remember doing this exact task in my 9th grade writing class. It’s actually a really useful way to teach kids about instructional reading/writing.

A more fitting punishment is to tell them they are getting 5 years probation and then jail them for a year. That would be a great reaction vid.

To me a “prank” is something silly and genuinely funny, not something that sends people into tears before you pull the “just kidding.”

I’m honestly annoyed even by those “I ate your Halloween candy...JUST KIDDING!” videos. I mean, why would you think it’s funny to mess with your child’s trust in their parents?

Look, even if this shit had been nothing but actual pranks, that’s still an evil thing to do to your child. Your kid should never, ever feel tricked by you. On purpose. For your amusement.

And frankly it’s unnerving to imagine how somebody who originally wrote the Oompa Loompas as he did would’ve written a black protagonist.

But Kirkman has clarified that no one whipped out their dick and started masturbating in front of her, that what she experienced was creepy and disappointing but that it rose nowhere near levels of sexual assault or misconduct. It was her initial disclosure coupled with her description of the person that lead people…

The woman who first told the story as a blind item has said it was not Louis CK. Another comic, Doug Stanhope, came forward and said it was him, not Louis CK. So why is he still being tarred with this brush? I’m sure he’s not without faults, but it’s been pretty much verified that this isn’t one of them.

Isn’t him saying...

“So it’s not real? “No.” he responded. “They’re rumors, that’s all that is.””

Yes. They make a weak-sauce condemnation, but then line up to kiss his fat orange ass a few days later. I swear he must have some dirt on these people to have them keep falling in line. Either that or they’re blindly devoted to putting their party before country. It’s really disheartening.

not to put too fine a point on it, but when the beauty pageant contestants and the comedians are the ones calling out the racist and inflammatory rhetoric of our president and not, oh I dunno, OTHER GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS, then there seems to be something deeply amiss with our country

The winner gave a good response too to a question about the Paris Climate Agreement, saying it was wrong for the US to have pulled out given the evidence we have about climate change.

Whiteness has an ignorance that is bottomless”

He responded to a nine-year old: “You won’t be saying that when you’re 40 and you’ve got cobwebs in your box.”
