Daryl’s so popular they wrote him into the comic. I can’t imagine he’d get got. This may be my love of Daryl talking.

Again, it would be different if you were posting a comment half that size or not linking, but you’re essentially using Bricken’s post to advertise your own blog. That’s not encouraging discussion; it’s fishing for clicks because the system has changed and you still want to get the word out about your long form piece.…
Did you even ask Bricken if it was okay for you to post your own would be article and kinja advertisement under his article? It’s pretty poor form.
This episode was 80% filler, and considering all we’ve seen so far from the show, it wasn’t even compelling filler. We know what’s coming. Anyone who’s seen anything advertises all season knows what’s coming. They could have delivered. We know they don’t pull punches. Instead they padded the running time with…
Again, he said that women of that era didn’t want to talk to strangers and therefore couldn’t take on the tough subjects. I don’t know if bolding that would help you acknowledge it or not. That has everything to do with the ability of his contemporaries, and if you didn’t think so, you wouldn’t have spent the last…
It’s fine if you don’t feel like being “outraged.” Honestly, as a woman who went to J school and defected to the dark side of marketing/PR, I feel less outraged and more painfully familiar with this whole thing. But whether or not you are upset by it and whether or not you want to pick at the semantics, he was wrong.…
He specifically said that “women writers of his generation did not like to talk to strangers and that prevented them from taking on tough subjects.” Women didn’t like to talk to strangers and therefore couldn’t report on tough subjects? What would you call being embedded in Vietnam or taking on multi-million dollar…
Let me try to explain this for you: The real issue here isn’t that Talese couldn’t think of a single woman who inspired him artisitically. While that’s incredibly sad, you’re absolutely right; it’s artistic and subjective. The issue stems from this quote from the New York Times (among others): “Talese went on to…
Setting aside those tweets from the people who were there, one of whom is the editor for the Boston Globe, it looks like the New York Times, the Daily Mail and a few other outlets have similar variations of what others have reported. From the Times: “Talese went on to explain that women writers of his generation did…
First of all, just because he’s old doesn’t mean he needs to be coddled or that he and his thoughts are irrelevant. That’s like one step away from saying he should shut up and look pretty or just shuffle off onto the iceburg.
You understand that the real issue is not that he wasn’t inspired by women (unfortunate for him but fine) but that he believes women aren’t capable of quality NF because they can’t talk to people, right?
The OG DC guys were hardcore New Yorkers as well though, which is weird.
I’d argue that the difference there is that those movies were largely before superhero movies really hit their stride, and they were well known to be garbage, much like the older Fantastic Four movies. This time around they’ve been trying to beat Nolan’s style into the ground, and it’s obvious from the reviews and…
The box office drop off was intense, and the problem is, the reception doesn’t boad well for the relatively smaller movies they need to roll out before Justice League like Aquaman or the Flash, especially when they’re definitely not capitalizing on the good will of the CW shows.
Red Letter Media pointed out that they’ve sort of done this ass-backwards in that they came out swinging with Batman v Superman hoping that would build moment for relatively smaller movies like Aquaman, as opposed to Marvel who rolled out slowly at first with Iron Man and Thor. Unfortunately, since BvS hasn’t been…
Don’t forget, the cops were also involved. He was literally under investigation for serious predatory crimes.
Since Title IX. They barred her from counseling services and at the very least academic judiciary procedures to which she was entitled as a student of the university. Stuff like this ostensibly falls under behavioral clauses in any student handbook/contract/whatever and should be investigated so they what action to…
The people and groups I named are active and prominent. The “Rape is Rape” campaign for example was in 2011, and the Feminist Majority Foundation is literally www.feminist.org. As in, they are literally the feminist majority. Incidentally, rape counseling, gender violence, political leadership, plus the fight against…
You should read my other reply.
From one abuse survivor to another, I’m truly sorry that you’ve had these experiences. Please try to set them aside for a moment and consider a few things:
