Do you actually care?

Does it need reprinting, or can we just all agree not to be assholes to teenagers online? 

The Baby-Sitter’s Club —> The Baby-Sitters Club

I’m so tired of homophobes. Being a bigot is bad enough, but harassing a teenager is an extra level of shittiness.

I dated a guy who thought we shouldn’t get married because we disagreed sometimes and he equated disagreement with his parent’s divorce.

the aclu donation has already been explained in the comments and the shit in the bed has already been proven in the uk case that the dog did it.

That is just how it is in the UK, they are all an incestuous mess over there. UK judges are generally fairly honest though, family connections don’t mean squat to them. The UK judges would put their own blood in jail without a flicker of emotion if they thought they’d broken the law. Their political friends, yeah,

It’s actually a little frightening how much I’ve seen “justice for johnny” videos/hashtags/captions, compared to anything remotely approaching “both sides are awful.” I didn’t read the NYT article from this morning about “stan culture” in the Depp/Heard courtroom but the thought of it makes me just as nauseous as the

Exactly, defamation is a very limited scope (even in the UK), Depp alleged he was defamed by being called a wifebeater. Literally all the respondents had to do is demonstrate that he hit his wife on two or more occasions. Since he had, no matter the reason or alleged provocation, they were justified in using the term.

When you’re a multi-millionaire actor, the worst thing that you can endure is to (tell your assistant to) buy new sheets.

The only thing that lurid story is useful for is ironically giving away how full of shit anyone who claims to worried about “male victims of domestic violence” is if they’re bringing that up.

And why do they remember and parrot this when the pic looks like dog poop and Depp is the only one on actual record as thinking it’s funny to poop on things?  Easier to hate a woman than to look things up, I guess...

I get that this is what everyone will remember about this case but how is shitting in his bed worse than him trashing her closet and belongings, making threats, physical violence toward her, etc?

Ignore this idiot. The twelve incidents were judged to have met the threshold on evidence submitted to have happened. They just like to pretend otherwise and only hang around to “burn the witch” as it were.

This whole enterprise is absolutely ghoulish. Maybe Heard is history’s greatest monster like all the headlines say, but with every obnoxious “Johnny Depp owning Amber Heard’s lawyers” video that goes viral, we’re giving powerful abusers a road map to destroying their victim’s reputations.

When Tumblr is actually out there covering this mess for what it is: an attack on women and feminism.

I know! Heard had to prove in the UK courts that she was telling the truth. So what if she has had bizarre and/or violent behavior as well? That doesn’t invalidate what was done to her. Like, I have no horse in this race, but this shit is bonkers.

Mentioning that a UK judge ruled that Depp assaulted Heard on a dozen occasions and put her life in jeopardy at least three of those times just isn’t worth Jezebel’s time, it seems. For the love of god, please remember that sometimes imperfect women are victims of domestic violence and still deserve support.

I am familiar with the case; I work in the area of law and know enough about divorce cases, the misrepresentation of mental health issues in the court, and how lawyers present information not to make a judgment until the case is over.

The thing is the entire exercise being done in any instance by either side in a case should frankly be unadmissable in a world where justice matters. You can’t undertake a reasonable evaluation of someone’s mental state and health during a years long relationship that featured known substance abuse as well as alleged
