Cause it makes the people with the money (mostly white old dudes) super comfortable cause it’s another white guy who shares their viewpoint, or at least look it.

“He hates himself, and he loves himself, a very tense situation... To me, it’s the most embarrassing thing in the world —a man who presents himself at his worst to get laughs, in order to free himself from his hang-ups. Everything he does on the screen is therapeutic.”

I’ve always had an awesome relationship with my parents, especially my mom and I gotta say that if I got pregnant in high school I would have been shit terrified to tell them. 

In what way?  He was never exonerated.  Surely the year 2019 should have taught you something that the lack of indictment does not mean someone was cleared of wrongdoing.

Seriously. He met her when she was a child, and he was married to her mom. Fucking gross. Marrying your former step daughter is creepy enough, and basis for cancellation. Or at least it was for me, since I heard of this long before I read Dylan’s story.

The thing that I think it’s a little difficult for anyone to wrap their heads around who hasn’t dealt with abusers is that they groom their character witnesses just as thoroughly as they groom their victims. Scarlett has no doubt been subjected to just as much gaslighting as Soon-Yi, but it’s directed to a different…

Ugh I freaked out and bawled for days over finding out I was pregnant with twins. I don’t mean like oh shit I mean like oh fuck my life is ruined this is the worst thing possible oh my god I can’t handle having twins freak out. Gasping sobs and all. It took four weeks to quit crying (they are almost 15 now and…

“Naturally, Lim walked away, and a few months later Chiarelli offered her half of his salary to reach some semblance of parity. She still said no, and now she’s my fucking hero.”

What is it about seeing a white guy that makes employers give him gobs of money for no real reason? I don’t get it.

And how is freaking out when you find out you’re THIRD TRIMESTER PREGNANT sketchy? I’d freak out if I found out I was any pregnant and I’m even kinda trying.

I could be wrong, since clearly there is not a whole lot of detail in this article, but the skull fractures could have come from burying the body.

The “troubling precedent” was what stood out to me. Someone typed that and didn’t see anything wrong with it. Why you would ever say something like that regarding someone’s PAY? What’s a troubling precedent is Hollywood’s decision to continue to employ pedophiles and abusers and shitheads. 

If anyone here is a pediatrician or OBGYN or anything, I am wondering — taking into account:

Nah I’m speaking to how women’s reputations are often used against them regardless of what the reputation actually is. The material facts may point to her as a murderer, but emphasizing her reputation as a good girl means nothing because if she had the opposite reputation they’d be saying that’s the cause.

Oh, I agree, especially with her not really being in the right headspace. It seem is also very likely that she did have a stillborn baby, especially since she was most likely not getting enough nutrients due to her eating disorder.

Yes, but they have to prove the baby was born alive, then buried alive (it is possible for a frightened teen to think their baby to be stillborn if the baby was born not breathing and the parent panicking and just burying the baby alive without realizing it) or killed the baby before burying it.

They are expected to use evidence of her eating disorder, her time on the cheerleading squad and track team, and her participation in the National Honor Society—evidence Richardson’s defense has used to paint her as a rule-abiding overachiever

It appears the prosecution got wrapped up in the sensationalism, and didn’t do their due diligence. Or the source reporting didn’t.

As for why they would assume that she killed the child, this wouldn’t be the first pregnancy concealed by a teen who then “disposed” of a live baby. A sad and terrible effect of the…

Even if he’s innocent of the more egregious charges, he still left his wife for her adopted daughter. The things that are facts should be enough. Who would want to engage with someone like that?
