If you knew all the bad things that great artists that you enjoy had done, you wouldn't be left with a lot of art, literature, movies or music. Humanity is messy, and artistic geniuses are often deeply flawed.

No, there's no "duty" to separate the art from the artist but neither is there a duty not to. Why can't you both enjoy their work and acknowledge their wrongdoings? Why do these things have to be mutually exclusive? I understand that some people are more emotional and can't just separate the two, but a lot of us can,…

This.

While it may be a factor, I doubt it's the main one because otherwise how do you explain all the women who stay with their abusive partners even when they don't make a lot of money, and sometimes they don't even make money at all. There are women out there who support their abusive husbands.

If I can jokingly refer to myself as a slut, I can also jokingly res to his exes as bimbos because compared to his wife, they couldn't be more opposites. Lighten up! Not everything needs to be taken so fucking literally.

Shit, I hadn't thought of that. But you're right. Juliette might have told her to eschew psychiatry and replace her meds with vitamins.

not at all. I'm just saying that it you have no problem speculating and showing bias against the police, why not do the same toward the people on her reservation who might have hurt her?

Agreed. But Isha Aran notes this stuff almost in passing, while having no problem blaming the police for stuff that is also based on speculation. And while I have problem blaming the police based on speculation, why not give the same weight to the very suspicious shit that was going on with her enemies on the …

Yes, the police are dicks and care far less when a missing woman isn't white, but aren't you at all curious as to who her alleged enemies on the Reservation were? And why they were hostile to her? You allude to that in your article but you don't provide any information or interest in clearing that up, and instead…

I supposed I should be grateful that neither the three-breasted lady nor Ebola nor Nicki Minaj from the "Anaconda" video, nor Malaysian Airlines, nor anything ISIS related

You're right. But something seems off about this whole thing. Like Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes off.

I actually agree with you and I don't necessarily think Clooney wants to run for office but there's something slightly off about the whole thing... maybe I'm just a big cynic and this is all totally real. But this is weird like Tom Crusie and Katie Holmes was weird. If Clooney starts couch jumping on Oprah, I called…

And what little world is that? Trust me, I knew who she was. But that type of celebrity is nothing like the kind she's experiencing now.

"People like me"? Who's that, exactly?

She's taking to her newfound celebrity status with an ease that is almost suspect. That, coupled with the last name change, is making me give both her and George the side-eye. I bet he's definitely contemplating something in politics, and needed the wife to go with that, and Amal fit the bill way better than any of…

The first requirement of a dress when we started shopping for my sister was that she wanted to 'breathe and eat', and the ladies in the bridal stores thought she was joking.

Not saying it's wise or sensible

the groom getting drunk with his friends and leaving his bride up in the hotel room is a selfish dick. but i don't agree with giving a pass to the dumb bride who can't even eat a plate of food to avoid getting so drunk she spent the night puking. have fun and eat at your own wedding, for fuck's sake! are you afraid…

Sorry but culottes can look great. Not all culottes of course but they can be extremely flattering. I have pretty curvy thighs buy a tiny waist and knee length or longer culottes work like midi skirts in that they emphasize your waist and create a very flattering silhouette. They're basically like a midi skirt with…

It's a stupid title for sure but there's nothing wrong with knowing what shapes and cuts flatter your figure. Instead of focusing on 'problem' parts, it should be more focused in identifying your best features and dressing in ways which emphasize those.
