Caveat: even if Weinstein was somehow in a “consensual relationship” with the accuser that accuser is still allowed to say no at any time for any reason and disregarding that choice is still considered sexual assault. Saying yes once doesn’t mean yes forever including retroactively. I know plenty of people who were…

It’s a common consensus. Also, my love of R.E.M. pointed back to Lou Reed as well considering how Reed-esque Michael Stipe was. That said, my love of both Metallica and Lou Reed couldn’t get me to look past how bad of an album “Lulu” was.

I’ve been trying to find an article that shows the breakdown but it doesn’t name any Dems who opposed it. The closest I found was this:

I’m 35 and I do, but admittedly I only got into her through a roundabout way where I liked David Bowie, discovered Lou Reed, went back to check out Velvet Underground, and then found Nico. Also, I couldn’t stand much of her work post-Factory (and honestly preferred Reed solo).

No, cuts all the way to the soul. That hurt is deeper than marrow.

See, people actually CAN’T handle being told they did something wrong. It’s a classic narcissist trait. You call them on their shit and instead of changing they either play victim or they lash out.

I may have to read that whole interview at some point, but the fact that she reported the rape and nothing came of it is... well, it’s not surprising actually, but it’s got me wondering if she could take another crack at saying his name in the current climate. Or, maybe she’s done with all that now. I can respect that.

RE: That pic, it looks like exhibit A, B, and C that there’s a phylactery somewhere which we must destroy with fire in order to prevent any more of this brood from escaping and corrupting mankind.

Other than his Golden Globe for being on “Happy Days”, most of Ron Howard’s awards came from being either a director or a producer. Maybe Gopher Trace is the next Opie?

To me, the biggest sin of the third movie (aside from shared sins from the first two of being almost entirely green screen and very little practical effects) was that they took a wonderful actor like Billy Connelly and instead of putting dwarf makeup on him they just used his voice and created a CGI dwarf in his…

I grew up on old NES games. Even just the intro GIF of that turbo tunnel level made my sphincter pucker with anxiety though.

Here’s the thing, man. I don’t disagree with anything you’ve been saying. At all. However, you took what I said and assumed I was against you or something and put words in my mouth. It’s like you picked apart one little semantic and decided to dig trenches when I’m over here not saying “no” but just “yes and” to your…

Wow, I agree with both the point and the counterpoint. Very reasoned debate, chaps. A true Kinja unicorn has just been found. Kudos to all.

Wow, that escalated quickly, person who knows absolutely nothing about me and yet felt you could assume not only an amount of laziness, entitlement, and a lack of both education and responsibility on my part.FTW, dude? Way to take things completely off on your own tangent too, like you were just itching to bring up…

Politicians who will nerf the power of money and corporations are an endangered species being starved near to extinction as their competition grows fat on those same veins of power and money who will continue to vote to bloat the status quo and consume more and more. Personally, we could learn a few things from France…

Sure, why not let them?

This isn’t really news (but it bears repeating anyway since it hasn’t received much press). There have been many who corroborated that Trump attended parties hosted by not-yet-convicted-pedo/billionaire Jeffrey Epstein. Some of it is mentioned among other points in this Snopes article.

I worked at McDonald’s at around the same time (99-01). The place was only a half mile from my house, so I could walk to work. They were also super understaffed. I worked there for two years.

Props for the WAD memories
