On the other hand, he’s telling you up front that he’s terrible. Any woman who still chooses to get with him is dumb. He’s over here festooned with red flags! 

I once read some interview with one of the show’s writers that said Doherty was the writing room’s favorite because she was a pro who would always inflect the line exactly as written, and that a lot of the cast hate for her was founded in petty jealousy for how good she was at her job. She had a photographic memory,…

Katy Perry does. Didn't you read the article?

Oh sure it looks bad, but that's only because you put exactly what they said into print with the appropriate amount of context around it to get across exactly what they were trying to say!

I get your point, and while I dont 100% agree with you (I think there is something revolutionary about this former Mormon coming out), this article is just very poorly written. Your comments about her relative safety in coming out is much more poignant then the half-snark above.

But then you’d just end up with a Brontësaurus. 

I just want this trend of everyone putting pictures of their naked bodies everywhere to stop. You’re never going to fix comparison and self-esteem issues by putting more things to compare people to out there. For every skinny girl, there’s an average girl going “ugh I’m ugly.” For every average girl, there’s a fat…

You’re right. That opinion is unpopular.

You’re right. That opinion is unpopular.

(In other words, it’s not like the news was out there, and because the press didn’t make it a bigger deal, Smollett felt that he needed to ratchet things up.)

“Believing the victim” means exactly what you just said: a crime has been reported, we will investigate it fully because we believe a crime has been committed, and we need to get to the bottom of it.” As facts emerge, sometimes, so does skepticism, but if you first reaction is to say, “well, he might have been making…

have you SEEN Jesus’ abs?

I wish this included info on how many children have recovered from the paralysis.

No way, he’s too old for this shit!

Do you not realize how that is socially expected of women, and not because one gender is inherently something? Also, yes, you are being sexist and gossipy about women here too.

Im sorry, but fuck her. She’s no different than any of those assholes who murder their wife and kids then turn the gun on themselves. Throwing your seven year old child out of a window is the most severe act of abuse you can commit. She was an abuser.

Direct action gets the attention of the entire community, which is what gets politicians to care. And more than that, it tells the kids who are traumatized and need protection right now that 1) they have agency and 2) people care about them. Actions like this promote community and prevent PTSD.

You know what really bothers me? When people bug out about kissing kids on the lips. Not everyone does it but when people do, IT IS NOT SEXUAL. People cringing like there is a sexual element is icky. It’s icky! That’s a father and son, clean your head. Damn.

Unfortunately up until this point he has been super good at breathing.

I agree with what you said, and im all for holding someone accountable, but...it doesnt look like he’s touching her in that photo. Childish? Yes? A little pervy? Yes. But we cant keep painting these scenarios with the same brush. And really, the #metoo tag? Id be embarrassed to lump myself in with people who had been…
