Persky made a controversial evidentiary ruling which allowed the jury to view seven photographs of the alleged victim “partying about a year or so after the alleged gang rape. In the photos, she is scantily clad, wearing a garter belt and what appear to be fishnet stockings.”

Yeah, that line needed to end at “Nah, I’m broke AF.”

I agree with you eccept for the part about specifically saying “if you want to cover it, cool”. I don’t think it’s OK to ask your friends to pay for you. If they offer, it’s OK to accept, but to suggest or ask them to pay for you is poor form and could make them feel guilted into paying for you.

It can certainly help you figure out who your real friends are! Anyone who would be angry at their friend because they were honest about not being able to afford to go to the Vegas bachelorette party or to be a bridesmaid is a self-absorbed cunt and doesn’t deserve friends anyways.

It’s strange how easy it was for Rita to get out of her contract compared to Kesha.

I’m amazed at how fucking selfish people can be around their wedding.

“But I’ve dreamed since I was a little girl, that at my wedding I’d have 12 bridesmaids all outfitted in Vera Wang dresses!!!”

I’ve seen friendships ruined over this, particularly in regards to weddings. The bride or maid of honor are well off, so that means a Vegas bachellorette party, weekend spa for a shower, $300 shoes for bridesmaids. It can run in the thousands. This is planned without any regards to their friend’s finances. In fact,…

For real. This kid is getting evicted in 2 weeks though and then mama is having herself a drink.

See, fellow dudes? Women DO acknowledge a nice guy when he’s a GENUINELY A GOOD GUY!

I feel like this plus his father's letter should be used as textbook examples of rape culture and how it persists.

It sounds like he is surrounded by a bunch of asshole enablers who have always told him he can do no wrong. So shocking that he ended up as a remorseless rapist.

You know what, I like you, you seem like an awesome human being. You seem to understand the situation in a very objective manner and as a victim of childhood sexual abuse myself, I really appreciate the way you are looking at the situation. :)

can you tell me what the next powerball numbers will be?? Because I sure as fuck don’t know if anyone knew about her history. The story doesn’t mention it but you seem so positive. If she had only been in the school for two weeks who would know. How many people had cameras? You speak in plurals but the story speaks of…

You might wanna reread. I did not say she was probaby lying. I asked if it was plausible.

In this one case I’m curious of this as well. I found it surprising way back when they even started dating, since as far as I “think” she said, she was a lesbian. But suddenly Johny Depp from on high rolls along and she’s not.

So I admit I’m biased in that I thought she was sort of opportunistic from day one.

Also, and…

Either scenario is plausible. And since only the two of them were there and a shit-ton of money is at stake, both legal and mgmt (and Disney, in Depp’s case) teams are working overtime to win in the court of public opinion. They know all too well that the narrative is up for grabs, regardless of the truth.

Thx for giving a non assholish reply. Sometimes when you show even a hint of doubt, you’re accused of victim blaming. When all I wantedto do was discuss the possibility of someone lying.
