I can’t with these people. They need to fuck off and go to hell immediately. They failed all their children, including Josh, who should have gotten real help for his attraction to children. And it goes without saying, the girls he molested. It’s possible that they weren’t deeply traumatized but the parents sure as…

I suppose this is what happens when a person is brainwashed. I wonder what her five-year old self would have had to say if given a chance.

The idea that he spent 6 months with cops preparing for End of Watch, a movie that literally nobody saw, is just amazing to me.

I’m actually so happy she gave a specific number for how much she weights. I know the number isn’t supposed to matter, and two people who weigh the same thing can look very different, but I feel like I’m constantly hearing about women who weigh 135 and want to lose 5 or 10 more lbs and it makes me sick. I just saw Amy…

“Oh, can we hold this plastic dick over your head? “

Oh yeah, the obvious stuff.

There’s things about him I think are creepy and problematic. Mostly just a personal revulsion to him, but I made a comment further down about some of it.

Yeah, he’s lucky he’s a good concert buddy/my husband’s friend too/my cat likes him. It also helps that we live in different states and usually communicate via text/IM.

Cover it up? Half his perverted sex stories go into his act, and quite a few have ended up on his show. His first movie was about a man turned on by older ladies and sitting on ice cream. He’s admitted to being a compulsive masturbator. This is not a surprise to anyone who pays attention, and considering the levels of…

I mean, the way that a lot of creeps work is that they only creep on people who are vulnerable - in this case, female comics who are not established and could have their entire careers ruined if they said anything. This means a creep of this nature would never even show a bit of creepiness around someone like Amy…

In my experience, comedians no skeevier than writers.

Marc Maron keeps creepily coasting on down the comedic road to success???

Uh, I DID NOT remotely say I think Maron is a good person. I flat out say he is a misogynist, and I am troubled by a lot of shit he says. I listen to the free eps only and fast forward past his self-indulgent bullshit in the beginning so I can get to the interview. That said, I totally think you’re right about…

At a certain point all the self-awareness in the world is worth a flaccid dick in the hand if there isn’t real progress on not being a shit. I read that post by a guy who critiqued Maron on a message board and Maron obsessively went after him and started talking about him during his set. He seems like the kind of guy…

Comedians are incredibly self-interested and paranoid.

Kirkman’s been doing comedy for at least a decade; her first album came out in 2006.

Just wanna second this/try to bump it up. I detested her essay, but yeah it in no way shape or form merited a title IX complaint.

I read her second essay and thought it was problematic, in that it bought into the myths that women cry rape when they merely regret sexual encounters and that women on campus have too much power to ruin the lives of men with rape accusations. But being wrong as fuck is not a Title IX violation. As for the first…

I think the students who made the complaint should be penalised for wasting everyone’s time and for causing Kipnis undue harm. And also for being fucking morons and an embarrassment to feminism but unfortunately that isn’t against the law.
