Equally puzzling is that when given that chance so few actually take it. O’Reilly just doubles down here and stays awful. Is it so hard to just say “ I’ve learned a lot over the last two years and I know I will be a better man in the future?”

Soviet propoganda held that women were equal with men. They lived up to that sometimes, though not by giving women a lot of real power.

Not many male heroes born before WW2 weren’t sexist.

Two years later, he told the Miami Herald that NASA’s plans to develop a new “scientist-astronaut” program should “offer a serious chance for space women

And yet Glenn supported the black, female mathematicians of NACA/NASA (as overly pushed in “Hidden Figures). He was a forward-thinking guy who didn’t think forward enough for us.

I assumed right away that that was the only reason she would not rule it out. I mean, if we actually found out that Michigan voting was straight up hacked, for instance.

Didn’t Doug Stanhope say it was himself? Jen Kirkman (one of the accusers of the anonymous cad) says it was someone else, not CK. Why do people keep connecting it to Louis?

No shit. I took all of that as assumed and was using it to critique the OP.

Nobody needs a lunch counter either.

She’s dating Chris Pratt now.

Oh, I know it is pointless of me, but when someone distastefully expresses an opinion that even tangentially matches my own (in that I can totally see a corporate entity distancing itself from strong, confrontational language like Bergdorf’s) I like to drop a little call for decency.

You know, it is totally possible to express strong disapproval of someone’s position while maintaining a sense of civility.

This is totally youngwashing. Pass it on. I have been trying to make that a thing since the first Fantastic Four movie.

What if it is Fiji Water?

You leave Flagstaff out of this!

Honestly I am concerned about the starlets, though I took the aggressive part to mean that they came after him and he was a weak ass husband. The other stuff is part and parcel of virtually all cheaters, male or female. If my wife cheated and lied about it she would be doing those things to me and her politics would…

Look, this whole thing is really disappointing and Whedon has definitely lost his “goody two shoes” lustre now, but abuse? Is cheating now the same as domestic violence? People seem to be reacting like this is some Cosby/Polanski level transgression when what he really is is a shitty husband.

Yeah. Cheating sucks. But the “other woman” is just as female as is the wife. Basically all adults get to make their own decisions.

Well, if the modern Confederacy is not glamorous and is the villain of the piece, then I think that you have your answer.

These random girls...will they be selected with dice? Names in a hat? A Shirley Jackson lottery?
