Laura, the girl who lost her friends when she came out as “conservative”, shows how the internet has really been instrumental in radicalizing people and bringing horrible people together.

I am tired of men defining real rape as “the level which I haven’t done to a woman”. The rape definition changes and doesn’t get believed because these men feel guilty as fuck because they knew in their hearts they’ve crossed lines and boundaries. Tarantino sits at home at night and lies to himself he’s not a rapist…

Yeah, agree about the reaction to his words and attitude.

There are no fucking words after that, none. He’s finished, done. I’ve heard some attempted defences of people over the course of the post-Weinstein saga but never anything so extraordinarily disregarding of what actually happened as this with Tarantino wanting to be a pedant about the legal definition of rape all of…

Haha I’m a similar age and one of my colleagues just went on mat leave and she’s the same age as me. When I found out she was prego my (inner) reaction was “oh no what is she going to do?” and then I remembered that she’s an adult in a long term relationship with a full time job and this is what people do.

Does it matter when she was forced to be institutionalized and not allowed to go home? She was still imprisoned.

You can lament the state of your life without it being disrespectful to people who have it worse. The fact that you are even aware says a lot of good things about your character.

Uma Thurman was brilliant in the Kill Bill films and in her one and only Oscar-nominated role in Pulp Fiction, but it’s a shame so many of her other films have been so mediocre or downright terrible, like The Avengers, Batman & Robin, My Super Ex-Girlfriend and The Producers remake.

This is absolutely worth celebrating but don’t let the rage die down. She should never, ever have been punished in any way for this, to start with.

“the NRA should be thrilled by these cases of women using guns to defend themselves against abusers”

This. I have no great love for Tom Brady. In fact, I think he’s a pretty shit person overall. Stabbing at him for something like this is insane. It’s his kid. Should we really be knocking affection between a father and son?

I don’t know, I’m kind of conflicted about Mark Salling. Sad for his family and friends. Sad that he was so desperate that he killed himself. Sad that it was only 4-7 years and I am sure with good behaviour most likely released early. Sad that he could have been someone who had the fame to talk to others about this…

I think the solution is that the definition of an emotional support animal needs to be more specific and rigorous. My step brother and his girlfriend adopted a cat, and it’s a sweetheart and I love it. But they live in an apartment that doesn’t allow pets, so she got her uncle, who’s a psychologist, to write an ESA…

I hate your (former) fucking psychiatrist btw.

oh yeah absolutely...i should clarify my statement.

I find the whole “we can’t joke about what’s happening in the world with people getting offended!” line so disingenuous because there are countless comedians making a living joking about what happening in the world in a thoughtful way. What they really mean is “no one find ME and MY casual bigotry funny anymore, and…

If your religious or “moral” views prevent you from providing service to a patient who doesn’t fit within your moral framework, you (1) have really shitty religious/“moral” beliefs and (2) should find a line of work that doesn’t require you to come into contact with people you find morally objectionable.

I became a member about 15 months go. They truly do God’s work against bigotry and intolerance.

I live in Boston and I would enjoy seeing this pupper at the MFA almost as much as I enjoy seeing Keytar Bear around the city (Keytar Bear is a person in a bear costume who plays the Keytar and spreads happiness to the world with his melodies).
