But if you’re “owning up” to having done something wrong, shouldn’t you be owning up to the person you actually did it to, not some random person or group of people who weren’t even involved? Apologizing for something that you did that you now realize hurt someone doesn’t doesn’t necessarily mean you’re trying to

Except it clearly wasn’t better this time because she ended up having to apologize for it on YouTube.

What? Are we monogramming a towel here?

Actually, that’s why she doesn’t remember my name. I got ushered off the set and never got to meet her.

I can’t believe I’m admitting to this, but I did a lot of embarrassing stoner nonsense in my late teens, including putting on an album at the same time as a movie and trying a little too hard to be blown away by how well they matched up, dude.

It was me. I was that kid. I also came up with all the best scenes in House Arrest, The Trojan War, Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit, and the season finale of The Byrds of Paradise. There were a lot of Jennifer Love Hewitt related contests back then.

I’m not totally in the “eat the rich” camp or I wouldn’t be saying positive things about Chrissy Teigen, but how does being wealthy make someone a positive role model? Whether your wealth is self-made or inherited, you need to do something positive for other people to be a positive role model, not just get rich for

Yeah. I don’t follow her, but I’ve never read anything she’s written that I found to be at all objectionable and I think it’s cool that she was willing to talk about her miscarriage. That was likely helpful for a lot of people. “How dare she post a picture of a horse when we’re in the middle of a pandemic!” is a super

True. Mara doesn’t come off looking great either. I’m sure it did genuinely hurt her at the time, but you gotta let it go at some point.

True, but that’s why the “block” button exists. If she bothers you that much, block her on Twitter and don’t click on articles about her.

I don’t follow Lindsay Ellis closely, but I watched that video yesterday after a friend shared it and it’s pretty crazy how the snowball built from such an innocuous beginning. Her discussion about how awful Twitter is was definitely on my mind when I made my above comment.

So many. So many years since we lost our innocence. 

Yeah. It’s not even like the Kardashians. I don’t think they deserve as much hate as they get either, but at least you could argue that they have had a negative influence on the culture to some extent. What has Chrissy Teigen done to harm anyone? She’s a blandly liberal celebrity who seems to be a genuinely friendly pe

True. I do dislike the whole performative “I’m leaving this app” or “I’m culling my followers” thing people do. Just do it if you’re going to do it. We don’t need an announcement.

Chrissy Teigen is such a harmless person. There’s no need at all for the vitriol she inspires. I’ve seen no evidence that she’s rubbing her wealth in anyone’s face. She’s just tweeting things about her life that she finds interesting and some of those things are lavish because she happens to be very wealthy. I see

Yeah. I made my point. I’m done.

So you’re fighting a straw man. Commenters called two people who committed a crime that comfortably fits multiple definitions of terrorism terrorists as a result of said crime and you assume for literally no reason that they wouldn’t use the same label if those people were not Muslim, brushing aside all of the

I’ve written two comments prior to this one. You’re approaching 20. If either of us has shown signs of being personally invested, it’s not me. I called a disingenuous ass not because this topic has any particular significance to me, but because you’re being a disingenuous ass. When I see anyone being completely

They targeted a group of people they had personal grudges with and then stopped
