France put out some really good and extreme horror movies in the aughts. I recently watched Raw on Netflix. It’s not as intense as that earlier French horror movement but is pretty solid.

It’s not that I ghost, but I just mirror the level or engagement. When I sense things are getting too one-sided, I pull away. I stop reaching out, waiting for the other person to say “hi” first. They have never said “hi” first, so the relationship fizzles naturally, by attrition.

Drag me to hell is good, I haven’t watch the strangers or exorcists III, I have watched the original. Audition is gore scary, not my thing. I like dismemberment movies but things with a lot of blood doesn’t do it for me.

I also hate horror films, but I did enjoy ‘The Others”. I would recommend.

Next up, Scary movies for people who doesn’t get scared easily.

Fun bit of trivia... It’s not “Chhh chhh chhh ahhh ahhh ahhhh”, it is actually “Ki, k,i ki; ma, ma, ma.” It is meant to resemble Jason’s voice saying “Kill, kill, kill; mom, mom, mom.”

If you know about the xkcd comic, why do you think it’s illegal for Twitter to decide who can and can’t use its private corporate service, like any other site? Twitter blocks spammers, of course it can block Nazis too. Until they do, muting abusers is a way to deal with them.

A racist, sexist, ignoramus with early-onset dementia gets elected President of the United States.

A lot of companies don’t rely on a labor attorney until it’s too late. They should consult with one regarding guidelines and publish an employee handbook, but a lot of business owners don’t do it. Some of them don’t want to spend the money. Others think they know everything they need to know (I mean, look at the…

It always has been. Men condescend disproportionately to women. Now that young women are, on average, more educated than men, and men are still explaining stuff we already know to us on a regular basis, this is getting named and called out.

Yeah, that July-to-November timeline for engagement to wedding is a huge red flag. That kind of turnaround is for an elopement, not something you’re expecting other people to arrange, pay for, and attend. If the LW made it clear that it was something they both pushed for, I’d shrug and say “Well, they’re too excited…

Wait, STB’s her best friend, who she asked to officiate her wedding, but they hadn’t met her fiance until after they were engaged? Unless they live far apart, that seems sketchily fast- saying that people are concerned she’s moving too fast might not be ill-received, especially if they can think of a tactful way to…

Exactly. And you have to wonder if Roseanna feared not only the repercussions against her, but if he would lash out against her entire family.

not to mention Rosanna Arquette, who’s entire family is in the industry

“In September 2009, Weinstein publicly voiced opposition to efforts to extradite Roman Polanski from Switzerland to the U.S. regarding a 1977 charge that he had drugged and raped a 13-year-old, to which Polanski had pleaded guilty before fleeing the country.^[22] Weinstein, whose company had distributed a film about…

Paltrow & Jolie are from Hollywood families. If Blythe Danner’s daughter and John Voight’s daughter didn’t feel comfortable speaking up for fear of repercussions, what does that tell you about the level of power Harvey Weinstein had over the entertainment industry? I hope this illustrates for people how deep this…

What a disgusting fucking pig.

When you lie with dogs you get fleas. It’s nobody fault but her own that she’s gotten this much hate. You can’t expect to be able go from having a very public career as an advocate for victims of rape and sexual harassment to repping one of Hollywood’s more prolific predators without having people comment on it.
