No. We can all improve and grow, and we should all strive to do so for the duration of our lifetimes. That doesn’t mean anyone is obligated to make room for us in their lives, especially if they are among those we mistreated in our pasts.

Yes voting. For President but also for commissioners and judges and sheriffs and magistrates.

Is this the second day in a row where this column has bashed voting? 

Lea Michele started as a child performer and her acting style has never matured.

Is Reese Witherspoon’s comment bad? Seems like a good starter list to me

He had his own citizens gassed
Then made his way toddling past.
He came to a stop,
Held a bible as prop,
And waved it around him, half-assed

It looks like he has no idea how books work.

So true. The correct approach isn’t to say “I’m not,” but to ask “Am I?” Only by continuing to ask that question can someone uncover the many ways in which “they are,” which is a critical first step on the road to changing bigoted attitudes.

I’m not racist and i never have been but i need to speak up about this because just not being racist isn’t enough.

Smoking on the set? WTF? I love GU and am glad she’s calling out the casual racism and sexism that privileged white dudes get away with on the regular, not to mention the fucking stone cold narcissism of knowingly breaking a law and not giving a rat’s ass about other people.

I mean...she COULD, but her 12 million followers and the fact that she is actually funny and entertaining say she doesn’t need to.

Also I’m a fan of famous people talking about the downsides of plastic surgery and the upsides of not giving a shit about being camera-ready. Are you not?  

“I don’t take the aesthetics so…

I hope I’m wrong, but cynical me says the only reason the Target Mossimos finally accepted a plea deal is that they know given COVID19 they will likely get house arrest, probation and community service instead of jail time. I will be genuinely shocked if they actually spend any time in jail.

Yeah that’s exactly what I thought, its always about money not going to the right places.

Someone is on deck for a SCOTUS nomination.

For the moment, I’m going to assume you’re not deliberately concern trolling. But regardless, you’re misconstruing what “believe women” actually means. “Believe Women” is not a blanket statement. It’s a shorthand that we use because the more accurate statement “afford a woman reporting an assault the same benefit of…

#BelieveWomen is a lot easier for people to understand than #GiveAccusationsMadeByWomenMoreCredenceSinceSomeAuthorityFiguresAreOverlyDismissiveButKeepInMindThatDueProcessIsImportantAndPeopleAlsoLieAndWeHaveALongHistoryOfWhereUnprovenAccusationsHaveLedToJailtimeAndDeathForTheWronglyAccused.

That’s not the worst apology I’ve ever seen (low bar), but the bit about her privilege blinding her to the fact that for some other groups the police are not just a benign protection agency is patent bullshit. She makes a point of saying to this guy that she is going to call the police and tell them an “African…

I’m not sure how me using a woman’s name to insult other women is sexist. I’m not obligated to support other women writ large, especially not when they do stupid fucking shit. I’ll take Karen any day to describe someone that’s actually being an asshole over being subjected to listening to people use “bitch” or “cunt”…

It helps to have money but still, that was one heck of an abusive, publicly embarrassing, nasty move in his part. I feel awful that she or anyone else has to deal with a spouse like that.

The responses are kind of weird.  Whether she can afford to live somewhere else or not - and she can 10 times over - does not excuse what Sarkozy has done to her if the allegation is true.  Can we stop doing the “I don’t feel sorry when bad things happen to rich people ‘cause their rich” bullshit?
