"People. It's time to reassess whether or not you really want to go and see the Fifty Shades of Grey movie."

Making her actually show her age is not shaming. She is 10. She should be 10. This is a problem that at 10 years old she is trying to date "older" guys and lie about her age online to do so. So I don't think "embarrassing" her is a big deal. Kids don't respect the power of the internet. She does now I bet and will…

Give it up, you might as well be arguing with your wall. But, I feel you. I used to be a little fucking thief as a kid, until the principal called my mom. My mom made me stand in front of my class and teacher to admit that I stole and apologize to my classmates. I was shunned by my classmates for a month, but…

I received shame-based punishment, it was enough to deter me from doing it again! Some might not agree with it, but it sure as hell worked for me.

Why is everyone acting as if this punishment is physically harmful or THAT emotionally traumatizing that she'll never recover?

Maybe not you as much but this is completely ridiculous

That would be me. I was made to do a couple things growing up that were REALLY embarrassing to me as punishment but in retrospect taught me very important things.

Those things have nothing to do with what she did, besides restricting her access to the internet. Maybe I was just raised old school, but you eat crow when you do wrong at my house. This is different because today it can reach an infinite amount of people but I think the intention was not for it to be seen round the…

I guess if the dialogue between them was only that shallow then probably. I imagine he explained to her the dangers of her behavior along with it breaking their house rules. This is no different then expecting time out to solve a behavior problem in a toddler except her punishment directly correlates to the bad…

YAS.

• Tina Fey shared some lovely words about the recently departed Jan Hooks:...Jan deserved a big movie career, certainly as big as Rob Schneider's fucking [career].

I was watching a cosmetic surgery show once , the woman was getting liposuction, skin removal and breast implants all at the same time and they had her whole torso cut open. Nipple sliced half off for implantation. And they blurred the half sliced off nipple. mutilated body ok, but don't show that nipple

Koko named the cat! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Ball

I watched a documentary on Koko and the other gorilla who could sign (who's name escapes me) and when Kok's cat All Ball died, she cried. Like, break your heart cried. I believe that Koko watched Robin Williams movies before she met him. I think I remember from the video she had the VHS and pointed back and forth from…

Yeah, his involvement in all of this does not bode well. He's a professional creep.

As the child of someone with severe mental illness… they can sound pretty coherent a lot of the time. My mother used her voice to tell me when I was about six that I was the product of rape. By the time I was 15 it was up to three men gang raping her when I was conceived.

Given that Bynes also stated that the microchip in her brain made her accuse her father of molestation, I'd say that it'd probably be prudent to remember that she is very unwell and that those accusations are not coming from someone who appears to have a strong grasp on reality right now. She may indeed have been…

You thought "@amandabynes: My dad never did any of those things The microchip in my brain made me say those things but he's the one that ordered them to microchip me" was a coherent tweet?

Thank you for articulating what I failed to. Serious compliment.

It's a combination of the centuries-old tradition of imposing a socially-constructed idea of hypersexualization onto Black women (often to justify rape at the hands of white men) and that Serena's body both draws more attention than most tennis players by virtue of how it combines curvaciousness with strength…
