Also, apologizing under duress only after you get caught and your reputation is up in flames and everyone is treating you like you were poking Alien Goo and have eyeworms now, just doesn’t mean very much.

Who wants to ask them if they know where the B12 in vitamin supplements comes from...?

Good luck preventing cats from eating grass - they don’t want the old blades (from a mouse’s stomach or not) either, they’re quite fussy about it being young shoots, and they definitely prefer certain types over others. Some will even prefer it to catnip.

Probably too afraid of a more appropriately-sized steed...

Nobody thinks he’s undesirable - he’s got a tremendous fan following - but he’s very obviously a Friend of Dorothy!

I don’t think even Roger Ailes had a Remote Rape Room button...

Flashers aren’t a new thing.

For them, it was Tuesday...

A lot I think, going by comments. Ignoring totally that this apology only came after he 1. got caught, 2. started facing serious career consequences for it.

This is a man who lied and gaslit his victims right up until the NYT splashed his lies to the world. Who threatened their careers until his own career blew up in the backfire, and ONLY THEN said something. This is not an apology, this is a last ditch frantic weasel-scramble to escape justice.

How about you be honest & accept that this ‘apology’ is just more gaslighting from a hypocrite who literally lied about this until it was splashed on the front of the NYT? Sorry he got caught & is being punished now with real financial & reputational consequences - the karma for the career-killing he and his manager…

Narcissist’s Creed ‘apologies’ -

Shades of Joss Whedon’s excuses for taking advantage of young actresses there...

There is virtually identical discourse about ‘modesty’ down to the same memes and exact turns of phrase, amongst conservative Catholics and Evangelical.

Nonsense! Obviously the sensible thing to do is keep giving them giant v-twins until they learn to like it!

Be careful: a lot of companies now hiring have started demanding to know what you’re being paid at current/previous jobs so that they can lowball you in the new one, too. Because having a budget to get the best person for the job by paying them what they’re worth is so mid-20th century, apparently...

You seriously didn’t understand that was referring to being paralyzed from a broken neck?!

It’s a boast - no, really, that comes up in the Atlantic article, that he dresses like a hobo just rolled off the latest train in the yard as a way of showing his ‘genuineness’ that he’s not like the other Hollywood CEOs who dress to impress - because he doesn’t HAVE to, he has the power to shlub about in public like…

You’re only supposed to sympathize with the Evil Overlord’s henchmen IF they’re morally conflicted AND that signals they’re about to make their Face Turn to help save the day. Otherwise, it’s just self-indulgent angst at best, and being a Minor Villain themselves, at worst. The assistant - and your ‘serial killer’s…

Also corporate power, industry gatekeeping power, celebrity, any number of other social power modes...but for some reason I don’t think any of these are the ‘right’ answer that poster was looking for....
