Why are you treating this as a competing issue instead of part of the existing one?

This article is vintage Clover Dope.

I have to say, I’m a little skeptical, because I’ve never heard of this. I know photographers put a lot of effort into gaining visibility for their images, like anyone who makes a living from selling their art. I’ve never even heard of an individual photographer going after an individual blogger for stealing images…

Nope. In reality, you go through all your suggested steps in private - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. You file suit once the other side quits negotiating.

Way to dodge the question.

So you admit that you did not know what the movie was actually about until I just told you?

I honestly don’t know what your “broken clock” quip is about. But this is the point that was made (by you) that I responded to:

It’s a period film based on the real-life story of Eddie Mannix, the character played by Josh Brolin. He died in 1963. Explain to me how you tell that story under your conditions.

Pardon me, but are you nuts?

He writes what he gets and feels he can write about. Why should he write about what you think should be art, but might not work for him?

It would be a completely different story then, silly.

So the summary of your argument is that you expect a couple of Jewish boys from Minnesota to write about the Black experience. But if they did, you would be writing about how they have no business presuming to write about Black experiences, because it lacks the authenticity that Black writers would give. There is…

“nonconsensual pornography, defined as the distribution of sexually graphic images of individuals without their consent.”

If someone claims that 1 + 1 = 3, it isn’t being ‘sensitive’ to correct that person and refer to simple math, it’s simply the right thing to do. What you call ‘patriarchal thinking’ I call reality of life. If men acted like the vast majority of women when it comes to dating and who actually is supposed to make the…

You stated that women support men more often than the other way around and that women foot the bill in at 70% of the time in restaurants. I called this as a feminist utopia bc it just hasn’t any basis in reality and makes me wonder where you might live and work. In your opinion women support men more often than the…

Or the female in the equation pays for dinners out, groceries, and a utility bill while their partner pays rent/mortgage and the remaining bills due to income. I know several couples who live together that have a similar arrangement.

I don’t understand why so many people are saying she “deserves” it at 18? It doesn’t matter what you can do legally at 18. If your parent who passed away doesn’t want you to have the money until your 25 or 30 then that’s that. It’s not the kid’s money, the parent made it.

I really don’t see how any of this is the public’s business. Bowie was fairly private and the fact that his last wishes, which he put together in private, would be splashed all over the net is just sad and wrong. Is anything sacred in our lives any more? Does every morsel in a person’s life need to be parsed? His…

I might want to know, too.

I don’t think women should be punished for things done by adult men to whom they’re related.
