Poverty porn is a new term to me but so accurate! I am so sick of the news clips showing the lines of “underprivileged” etc kids/families being trotted out to receive their gifts/turkeys/whatever.

The wheelchair is in case anyone faints at the site of his hotness and he needs to set them down somewhere safe.
I walk with a cane, and I *firmly* refuse wheelchairs at airports. After several hours sitting still in a metal sky-tube, the last thing I want is someone else controlling where I’m going/to be sitting down longer. And they don’t even fucking ASK!
The wheelchair thing happens all the time. My brother is blind and a really fit weight-lifter who works out every day. If he needs help at the airport, they show up with a wheelchair. A few times, they try to insist he sit in it “for liability reasons.” All he needed was a sighted guide to help him get to baggage…
Imagine showing up for work after making a suicidal statement publically, doing a presentation while pretending that you are fine and everyone ignores the problem. Then going home and killing yourself after which everyone questions why the hell your workplace didn’t do more.
Totally agree.I’m not sure how it happened-maybe they were in a movie together and the credits confused me?- but for a couple of months I thought Henry Cavill was the actor called Armie Hammer. When I figured out the truth my first thought was that AH is super bland.
Armie Hammer? Is chiselled? From the sun?
CBS, the network that developed some of the worst television shows ever, handled this better than Google did.
Exactly. He’s not walking away with an extra $120 million but I’m pretty sure that he already has at least that much in the bank.
I agree with you. I’d like to point out how low our expectations are:
Probably worth mentioning that while they heroically found the means to not pay this creep 120 million on top of the 500 million or so he’d already made, they also managed to clear themselves of any institutional liability in what must have been a very happy coincidence.
Can I just say that I am so used to powerful men getting away with terrible acts, that I had to read this twice to make sure I hadn’t mis-read?
Michael Cohen was a lawyer but *this woman* is giving lawyers a bad name?
I wonder how much in the way of grooming that film managed. I mean, I saw it when I was a teenager and, while surprised at the relationship with Tracy, I thought ‘Well, maybe that’s just normal and I live in a small town in AL so don’t know better.’ I loved the film, but watching it now is almost impossible.
I was about 13 when it came out and I thought it was creepy as fuck then.
Spoiler alert: lawyers already have a bad name because of lawyers.
One of the things that I like about #metoo, is that it is pushing society to admit that things like dancing naked in front of someone without their consent or masturbating in front of someone without their consent are not victimless crimes. I remember a high school civics about different types of crimes like…
Wow. Way to see something that isn’t there, but, I guess you like giving yourself reasons to talk down to people online.
