i dont buy for ONE FUCKING SECOND the studio bought the movie without knowing about the allegation.

Fuck him, his rapist co-writer and the his supporters online. Especially his online supporters who are trying to guilt Black women like me into supporting his unapologetic, rapist-ass just because he’s Black. Guess what, a-holes? I don’t support rapists of ANY COLOR, full stop. So you can get the fuck out and miss me…

he BROUGHT HIS DAUGHTER ALONG to the Variety interview and then objected to the questions about the rape pointing out that he couldn’t talk about it in front of his daughter

My sister just told me that he BROUGHT HIS DAUGHTER ALONG to the Variety interview and then objected to the questions about the rape pointing out that he couldn’t talk about it in front of his daughter.

“The timing.”

Yeah, the timing comes from the publicity push. Gang-rape isn’t a good look on anybody. The sentencing of the original trial was bizarre too; How could one member of a gang rape only be committing rape?

The timing is suspicious indeed. I remember when Ava DuVernay came out with her movie and suddenly all these rape accusations popped up. This happened to Steve McQueen when 12 Years A Slave was about to come out. Also vividly remember Spike Lee being accused of heinous crimes before the release of Do The Right Thing.…

Let me lead with this: I will continue to watch OC, just like I continue to watch Atlanta and NJ. I am shameless.

I have PCOS and, thus, higher androgen levels than the average woman.

I don’t know if you’ve ever listened to the This American Life piece, but they actually play parts of her phone conversation with her troll. It’s incredibly affecting.
(If you do end up around This American Life’s page, there’s a much more recent episode called Tell Me I’m Fat, which excerpts the Dan Savage chapter…

he’s like the cicadas. he has to come back every 17 years to haunt us for the summer and then he dies off again.

I think it’s the fact that she’s still emphasizing that he’s her friend. In the grand scheme of this whole clusterfuck it’s pretty trivial; I doubt she’s gonna be inviting him to movie premiers or casting him in other roles after this, so if they still want to be friends it technically doesn’t matter.

If you think non-ionizing radiation is harmful to you, stay in a dark faraday cage at all times and you might have hope. Otherwise, wi-fi is no different from all the radio and TV signals that go through you every moment of the day and have since we started broadcasting radio over a century a go.

Real talk: isn’t it obvious that any number of things in our environment are probably causing us harm? If someone in 1950 had said “plastic bottles are probably dangerous” they would’ve been laughed out of a room. But petroleum manufacturers have known for years this was the case,a nd only recently are we attuned to…

So Uber will use all the money they sucked out of the “sharing economy” to basically stop sharing the economy by switching over to self driving cars.

Can we not blame Amy Schumer for the assholery of men she may have employed/known? Let’s stay focused on the true jerks who deserve our anger.

If this story is true, Katie Holmes deserves all of the applause, credit, and mom awards on the planet for extricating herself and her child from her powerful husband and his overbearing cult and then continuing to protect her from them.

I just...there really aren’t any words. I will not be supporting this man or his career in any way, for whatever that is worth.
