I’m close to that age and have many friends who are that age or older and many of them look wonderful and still have banging bods. While she’s a lovely looking woman, Julianne Moore is not that much of an outlier for her age. Loneliness (by which I assume you mean not having a romantic partner) is not a reality for…

The thing is, we’ve had literally hundreds of these movies- a white person (usually, though not always a man) recognizing racism and becoming a better person through a relationship with a ‘special’ POC. Rarely do we see this approached from the pov of the POC. They are always special in some way (even magical) and…

Just as Jones’ words matter, so do Jezebel’s- it is not accurate or adequate to write, “Jones repeatedly pushed the idea that the tragedy—in which 20 children and six adults died- was merely a hoax” Let’s use the accurate language here, it was a mass shooting and 20 children and six adults were murdered/slaughtered.

That’s stupid- it’s not a competition, it a father-daughter relationship which is clearly toxic and the toxicity is coming from his end as proved by his constant negative comments and leaks to the press for money and attention. Besides which, Meghan is the ultimate underdog: biracial, American, middle (lower?) class…

His comment that her husband must have fed her the line about ‘down the rabbit hole,’ was particularly weird. It is, as you noted, a perfectly well known expression in the States and if it hadn’t been, why wouldn’t she be discussing this with her husband? Her dad and sister are creating a media circus smearing Meghan…

I asked a Slovenian friend when the slogan came out if it was a direct translation that makes more sense in Slovenian- she said, “Nope, we don’t get it either.” 

Manon Lescaut begins with Manon meeting the Chevalier on the way to a life in a convent. That novel needs a serious feminist re-reading as the standard read on it is SO off. 

Even more importantly, this is about a media empire trying to force the owner of a major newspaper to drop an investigation into corruption /collusion between the president of the US, a foreign power, and said media empire.

They need to include ‘health’ as if it’s only when a woman is going to die, you’d have doctors waiting too late to try to save a woman as she’s not actually at the ‘dying’ state quite yet. See: Savita Halappanavar. Also, life wouldn’t include many situations is which a woman’s life long health and quality of life…

They are commonly used meanings being used in exactly the correct way. Honestly, pick up an economics book- they’re not shy about calling socialist elements socialist. 

We may be talking at cross purposes. I am arguing that socialism already exists in the US and the only people who freak out at the word, don’t know that. All of the things you listed can be and often are private, money making enterprises. 

Open up any economics book or page (literally any) and look up ‘mixed economy.’ The US has a mixed economy. What is mixed up in it you say? Socialism and capitalism. This is commonly known.

No, no you are not.

I used to know a woman who said Ted Bundy tried to hit on her in the 70s. She said she found him off putting and weird/potentially dangerous and went to lengths to avoid him immediately. She asked for the help of an authority figure to get away from him. She recognized his picture on a wanted poster a few years later…

Come on, everyone was aware of at least one of his victims- there was a lurid trial. 

There is no question that dead or missing white women get more attention and get a higher conviction rate on rapes- the overall rate is still 3-6% depending on how you count it. And Aaliyah.

I’m not saying there’s no point there, but when exactly have the rapes and murders of girl children or women led to what you describe? Women are doubted as much and often more than boys and men. Women do not get greater conviction rates or are treated better. There’s even more stigma around boys who are abused, but…

Yeah, being born and raised within miles, having many, many friends and family in the industry, having been in it myself for a decade or so, and living and breathing it my whole life, I probably don’t really know how it works. Look, he was attached first and he isn’t a huge star. The director was attached later and he…

It is a lie and he’s not exactly a kid- he’s 37. But we do need to be looking higher up the totem pole when blaming people on hiring. 

I find it VERY difficult to believe that in this day and age when people are googling first dates and their goddamn uber driver that any actor in the biz is not at the very least doing a google search on their director before they get attached. If you don’t know anything about the director, you don’t know anything…
