That’s the real goal behind the impeachment/trial; to prove to the masses that the GOP is so spineless/scared that they won’t indict the man who tried to have them murdered. It’s going to be an invaluable weapon in shattering the party, I think.

A hearty fuck you to all the men who downplayed this when AOC detailed her experience. The videos are all round terrifying. But, the sing song threat to Nancy Pelosi highlighted how men use gendered violence to specifically menace women. “Hang Mike Pence” is chilling. But the death threat is directed at him for doing…

Remember when Trump released that photo of Pelosi standing up in a room full of men and pointing her finger at him while he looked so grumpy and fragile? And he thought everyone would agree that the photo looked good for him and bad for her?

Sadly, there could be video of Trump saying the Capital Mob did exactly as he wanted them to and the majority of Republicans in the Senate would still NOT vote to convict him because he is part of the Republican party.

Hire crap legal team. Republicans get to say that they are voting not guilty because his defense was crap. Then Trump refuses to pay them because they are crap.

While Romney’s family has reached out to thank Officer Goodman on Twitter, perhaps a more thoughtful way to thank him for Senator Romney’s life would be calling for Republicans to pull their fucking heads out of white supremacist voters’ asses and punish treason clearly captured on video.

You’d think this would be straight forward with the video evidence and how terrible the defense is presenting their argument. But the problem is that Trump doesn’t have to worry about a few Republicans who might be turned, he just need to make sure 17 Republicans don’t get mad enough to develop a conscience or spine.…

My best biggest hope is that Trump, while not being convicted by the Senate, continues to churn rage towards the shockingly few Republicans who possess a spine and primaries the fuck out of them.

It’s so fucking infuriating.  I read a few comments from the Senate Republicans.  Some want to blame the mob stating it was their decision to  storm the Capitol, and Trump had no influence on that.  Or just how this impeachment shouldn’t even be happening, because Trump is no longer in office.  Ugh.  I sadly doubt…

Remember that the reason Republicans won’t vote to convict Trump, even when he sent a mob to murder them, is the same reason they enabled him his entire presidency: Fundamentally they agree with him. They may not agree with his tone, or the particular words he uses, mostly because it makes it more difficult for them…

It doesn’t surprise me that Whedon cared more about his Marty Stu than he did Carpenter. I’ve seen Brendan at cons, and even the offhand comments he made about Trachtenberg fit right in with the Whedon ethos.

I knew Nicholas Brendon had substance abuse problems post-Buffy, had no idea it happened while filming.

This is a little extra weird for me. I do love his work- yes, even the truly weird Dollhouse. And my reverence for the work is not dimmed by knowledge of the terrible environment in which it was created, because that’s how they used to make the sausage; jailing Weinstein was well and truly a turning point, that open…

The twin was also his stunt double- handy indeed. But yeah, it was kind of glossed over the few times that other-Xander was sitting in on a scene, and why. 

I liked Fred but it was very obvious she was basically Whedon’s dream woman. 

i had to look up what you were talking about because i had no idea. i looked it up and oh he went full harvey weinstein on a woman. i’m not surprised. my thing was i had friends who worked on bones and all of them said he was a huge asshole including saying something racist. i was told the crew hated him.

I don’t know how Benson got through Buffy with her self esteem intact. Do you remember how she got fat shamed by Oz-Willow shippers who wanted to hate her for any reason, so much so she actually posted on the Bronze message board to stand up for herself? Even though she was an average size for a working TV actress, ie…

God I had such a crush on David Boreanaz and was so upset when I learned about that. He has worked consistently since Angel and at this rate seems likely to continue til he retires. 

Also Darla, to be honest. Every single time they wrote out of a female character on that show, it was a “Woman gives birth, is no longer useful” situation.

I’m afraid Joss glorified the 90 lb waif, and pitted women against each other.  I think you may see the waifs, who are also favs of fanboys, come out with statements supportive of Whedon, or say nothing.  Gellar IMO probably cannot stand Whedon, and she took the hit when there was no season 8.  A lot of rumors…
