I'm sorry, that all sucks so much. But holy shit, no offense to her but that manager lady of yours sounds absolutely bonkers and there are so many tiring and shitty parts to working retail, but adding to that a batshit manager? Eeeesh. I hope you didn't have to be there for too long or work with her that often.

No. You don't have to wonder.

I'm also fairly willing to let it slide until I see more than a 2 minute clip- Pixar has done a good job with rounded characters before and I'd be willing to be this characterization does not reflect the entire movie.

Can we just get over the whole stereotypical Mom/Dad characterization because this is a CHILDREN'S film and it looks CUTE, DAMMIT.

As a dark skinned woman, not only does this NOT surprise me, but I can relate to it. I've never been suspended at school for anything, but I've been punished for petty shit. When I was 14 my friends and I were playing with markers at a grocery store. This white lady who works there was asking us what we were doing

Or maybe suspend fewer black girls.

I'm betting there's a vicious circle that happens. So some minor incident garners a kid a one-day suspension. Then the next incident, they look at her discipline history and see "uh-oh, already suspended once!" and the punishments get harsher and harsher for stupid things because they've created this self-fulfilling

This whole thing reeks of a crappy publicity stunt to build buzz for the inevitable release—err, "leak"—of this evil evil edgy controversial video project that will soon be released from the salt mines of Nevada to many stifled yawns and tortured thinkpieces.

Eli Roth would never make a film like Hostel.

"The first time everybody saw the first cut, we all went, 'No,'" he said. "We did the first screening of of the cut and then they're like, 'That's gotta go in a vault in a salt mine in Nevada, and nobody's going to see it.'

"You are a motherfucker aren't you?"

Many of the other woman who've come forward were white. Janice Dickinson seems widely regarded as an unlikeable attention seeker, though I think most people who've heard her believe she's telling the truth about Cosby. As far as I know, Beverly Johnson is a highly respected, groundbreaking African American model. For

I don't think Hannibal (who I've met and adore) started this. The first woman to come forward did. And the second. And the third kept that ball on rolling. And so on. He's helped, but he didn't start this.

Man....real shit. This is like learning that your favorite aunt or your mom was raped. To me, Beverly Johnson is every bit as iconic as Cosby in how groundbreaking she was for black women in fashion and modeling. I already believed that he was doing this but g-ddammit, man! I hope her coming forward makes those older

"You are a motherfucker aren't you?"

I think there are a couple of things going on here.

The problem is that the way in which she "gets really, really into her research" is apparently to stick to the dark corners of the internet full of hypochondriacs who don't trust mainstream medical science. It's an echo chamber where otherwise normal people can end up anti-GMO, anti-vaccine conspiracy theorists.

The unfortunate problem is there's virtually no way 20 medical professionals are incorrect, where as she feels "When I research something, I get really, really into it." is a justifiable medical license to diagnose yourself.
