Why do I keep seeing this hand wringing over The Punisher glorifying gun violence on the same sites that constantly gush over John Wick?

I will not fault you for feeling that way and maybe you’re just a better person than me (not saying this sarcastically, btw) but I just have too much anger and disgust right now to be able to view it that way at the moment, especially with some of the sick defenses of assault and victim blaming that I’ve been hearing

He hasn’t shown real remorse. He’s shown that he wants to save his career.

Crushed. Angry. Disgusted. He’s been one of my favorite comedians ever and now it’s going to be impossible to ever enjoy his work again when a lot of it feels like a creepy confessional. All of these news stories and especially the #metoo have really hit me pretty hard. Not to act like I’m a victim here, but finding

There is one easy way to judge any situation like this. Think about how you would feel if this happened to your wife/girlfriend/sister/mother/daughter/friend, regardless of how much you admire the person who did the “thing” to them. Take that feeling you have and apply it to these women you don’t know and the man who

Yes, unfortunately it’s a problem of how many men feel about women and what’s okay to do if you’re a man. This has to change. And while Alt-Right assholes and dudebros will say this is the left trying emasculate and “pussify” society, all it means learning that masculinity doesn’t equate to being a monster. If you

No, I’m sure you’re on the right track here as I’ve seen other human garbage on the internet saying this is all overblown and nothing more than some inappropriate behavior because he didn’t actually touch anyone. Or they victim blame the women for agreeing to meet him in his hotel room so they were insinuating

Exactly. When an apology is basically just saying “Okay, you got me” the garbage person can still go fuck themselves.

Yeah, but Jessica Jones and Luke Cage are on Netflix. I’m skeptical that Disney will allow anything like that on their own channel. Hopefully, I’m wrong. Or not hopefully, since I really don’t want another subscription service.

I agree that they probably should have gone with #2, but I’m not exactly expecting Jezebel to be the pinnacle of journalism. It’s really just a blog and they were more concerned about exposing him and protecting sources/friends than being Woodward and Bernstein. Also, I was never defending them to begin with. I was

So, when people are too afraid to go on the record, even though they have multiple sources, Jezebel should just shut the fuck up about it?

Tig Notaro is in the industry. She was friends with Louie. She said that she has friends this happened to and she was probably trying to give her one time friend an out to come clean before people go on the record. Do you seriously think she ended her friendship with him and spoke up publicly because she read a

Oh yeah? Wait until you see my swagger walking into court after I get arrested for dodging jury duty.

Look, I get that no one had officially come forward and named him, but there was enough there to know something was up and some people just wanted to yell about Jen Kirkman’s story and say that every other story was just people talking about her. Some people didn’t ever want anyone to even talk about it and silencing

It’s pretty possible that Kirkman thought she was being more clever than she was when she told the anonymous story, only to get scared and backpedal once people figured out who she was talking about. Of course, no matter what she says now, these people will say she wasn’t talking about him. Just like Rosanne speaking

Thank God. I thought I was the only one.

I’ve never understood the assholes who would vehemently argue that this was impossible every time the subject came up or start insulting people in defense of CK. Look, none of us wanted this to be true, but it’s always seemed to be pretty likely.

I haven’t understood the backlash, either. It’s an ongoing show, so I don’t know why everything needs to have an immediate payoff. It seemed obvious that it was setting up something for the future. Even if that’s all there is, I thought it was an interesting aside that was fine on it’s own.

Did they ever even finish getting Pokemon Go past being a glorified beta release? Might want to finish one game before your release another.

You ain’t kidding, brother. It’s a vile hot mess. It’s such a distilled version of Ennis’ worst impulses that it seem like self parody.
