Yeah. I mean, I remember when that kid went to Singapore and got busted doing graffiti, and got caned for it. (Singapore still has corporal punishment for things like that.) *That* was a cautionary tale. This is a freakin’ horror story.

This poor fucking kid. And before people weigh in with this: Yes he was stupid. Yes his privilege led him To believe that grabbing a poster would be a fun prank. Yes, no sane person not on a jpurnalism or humanitarian mission should go to North Korea.

It’s a good soundtrack!

I don’t care about this movie.

I saw a commercial on a kid’s network about how to make the Elmer’s Glue Slime. Glue, baking soda, food coloring, and contact solution. My toddler loooooved it. Absolutely loved it. She loved it so much, she tried to become the slime. This happened yesterday, coincidentally enough. I thought I was gonna have to shave

Replace Paul Hollywood with Nicole Kidman on the Great British Bake Off. It could be great!

For whatever its worth, I did not watch game 4 and didn’t tune in last night until the game was within spitting distance at the end of the third. That’s pretty unusual. I am a season ticket holder for my local bad team, and watch most of the playoffs and all of the finals basically every year.

Calling it now: Jost and ScarJo (ScarJost?) are going to get married and have a baby.

I bet everyone wishes they had a Hot Tub Time Machine soundtrack.

right, because it’s not like she has a history of drunkenly throwing herself at men while obliterated........

True, but I’m even wondering what happens when both people aren’t in control of their faculties. So he is drunk, she is drunk, neither are making decisions they would make without liquid courage. Who is responsible when neither party is acting responsibly?

Yup. Men also get blackout drunk, not just women. We don’t know what happened, so we can’t assume he knowingly took advantage of her.

Yeah—I’m confused. It says they were both drunk, but the producer was concerned that *she* was too drunk to consent. I’ve always wondered how others regard situations like this, because I personally don’t believe it’s right to throw the man under the bus if he was just as incognizant as she was.

I hate that all of this seems to only focus on her as if she is the only victim here.

It’s as if no one is concerned about Demario in this situation. Like she is the only one affected by this.

This. It’s also the one aspect of consent I’ve always struggled with: when both people are shit faced, who is responsible? Neither person was in control of their behavior. DeMario’s narrative is that she sat on his face, not that he forced himself on her.

They put people on a set with the deliberate intention of trying to get them to fuck each other and they shut it down when two of them then proceeded to drink lots of alcohol and fuck?

So DeMario says he was too drunk to consent, and Corinne says she was too drunk to consent.

this is the lawyer’s job. I’d be shocked if someone who was supposed to represent a defendant was like “nah fuck it lock em up”

In all honesty, does anyone expect the typical rapist defense to be anything BUT “she’s a liar” and/or “she wanted it”?
