I really hope that someone starts naming the assistants. I guess we can safely assume all of them did it, though, because I don’t think he’d keep them around otherwise

Years ago, he did a concert film where he performed at small music venues across the country, and there were several times that he just gleefully mocked audience members hair and clothes. It wasn’t even funny,just weird and mean. I remember wondering why he would ever sign off on footage that made him look like such a…
I kind of remember him dating EVERYbody, back then. He was crazy hot. I totally believe that he remained friends with a former girlfriend who later became an A lister
Oh man, my dad played a trick on me when I was a kid, by standing on a sand bar far from shore and telling me to walk to him. I was almost immediately swept under by a wave and couldn’t touch the bottom. I had just learned to swim and immediately forgot everything and was just flailing in terror. He doesn’t remember…
I worked on a show where a union Prop Master was fired for cause. It took all of five minutes. Producer fired him, he immediately called his union, the producer faxed over the memo detailing why he was fired, and the union rep said, “Welp, looks justified. Thanks” ETA— I just remembered I worked on another movie…
I mean, in addition to the payouts, I can think of at least four TV series and movies that had characters based on him. Comedians, sit coms, and late night shows regularly used his lechery and insane behavior as a punchline. Women in Hollywood have said they talked openly about his behavior for decades & warned …
I used to work in the Industry. I don’t tell non-industry folks my stories because they are so utterly ludicrous no one would believe me. And I am much, much luckier than most because on a couple of my jobs, I became good friends with my dept head & they looked out for me.
Terry Crews has spoken out about being groped by an executive as well, and said he was afraid to speak out
Yeah, at least Glenn Close acknowledged that she ignored the rumors for years because of Harvey’s respectful behavior towards her. I find it literally impossible to believe that none of her daughter’s friends or her younger costars in Miramar movies had encounters with Harvey.
Maybe they didn’t assault anyone, but I guarantee some of them helped talk actresses into “auditions” with Harvey or convinced them not to speak out against him. Weinstein is powerful, but he didn’t exist in a vacuum, people enabled his behavior
I’m self employed in health care, & share office space with a man in his early 20's. He constantly lectures me on my “one strike” poliy with aggressive or nasty clients. I don’t engage with anything they say, and depending on how bad their behavior is, either block them from calling me or making online appointments…
Zum oatmeal soap, or Alaffia black soap. Also, most health food stores have a store brand plain, unscented soap bar.
Oh man, not Talenti! Guess I have to switch to a local ice cream brand
In my city, there are special grants and mentorships available for women and minorities. If you’re in a large metropolitan area, there s probably a society of retired businessmen. The one here lists volunteers, with their field of expertise and experience, and you can call or email with limited questions.
She just seems so genuine, and I love that she isnt afraid to just be vulnerable and weird. Everyone is so polished and calculated and worried about cultivating a brand now
Nothing against showier performers, but damn, it takes charisma and talent to mesmerize a huge stadium while just standing on a dark stage.
For me it’s visiting my uncle. Cherry tobacco, whiskey sours and that scratchy, nubby 1970's couch upholstery
I have this weirdly vivid memory of a radio interview he did in the early 80s. He was honest and authentic in a way that struck me, even as a kid, as incredibly unusual for such a big star. Also, a girl called in who was clearly trying to hook up with him, and asked if the band was named The Heartbreakers because they…
Dear Baba Yaga,
You may be pregnant but it’s really great. This one actually made me cry:Dear Baba Yaga,
