I don’t know why everyone is fixating on the Hitler part. That’s just basic crazy stuff. Her vivid texts about bathing in his blood, scalping him and wearing his fascia were the the key points of her treatises.

“Police discovered a large butcher knife in the passenger’s seat of her car, at which point she was taken into custody and charged with trespassing.”

You fled the US when you found out you would be sentenced for the sexual assault of a minor. Don’t you dare bitch about the law, you unrepentant rapist.

That was actually pretty calm and reasonable for Alec Baldwin. Low bar, I know. But still not very different from what a lot of commenters here were saying here when the story broke.

Polanski should definitely sue. He’ll be made very welcome when he comes to testify in a California court. We’ll even provide him with room and board.

Holy cow- I found a whole Pinterest page of beagles wearing glasses-

I’ll have you know I’m now picturing a dozing beagle puppy with glasses propped on her snout.

It’s also tough with a big collaborative project like a movie. If a painter turns out to be a child molester, you can stop looking at his/her paintings. If a director is a scumbag, you can stop watching his/her movies.

A month into dating some dude admitted to me he was getting divorced. And when he broke up with me (and I can’t believe I continued to see him for a couple more weeks), he broke up with me via Google chat. Garbage, garbage man child.

That’s horrible, though I admire your strong, self-assured response.
And let’s it make it clear to assholes like that everywhere, it an egregious fallacy to equate someone’s weight or size with their athletic or physical abilities. Larger-than-average people can be fantastically sporty and able to do things which…

I don’t know if it’s the worst, but it’s had me seething for the last few days.

My worst recent example is the guy who told me on our fourth (!) date, that he had “concerns” about my weight, basically saying he thought I was too fat to go hiking and such with him. Which: dude, we’ve gone out before and you knew what I looked like that whole time. Also, you don’t have standing to have or register…

Oh, I needed to hear this. I am in finals for grad school right now, and yesterday I got nothing done because I was not feeling well. It’s good that you are giving yourself grace, and time to rest. You are good. Your work is good. Things will turn out okay. And there are always corgi butts.

I leave it up to my subconscious. Basically if I have the opportunity to experience a work and my mind goes to “Ugh, this asshole”...then I try to find something else. There’s no point trying to force it if I know it’s going to be floating in the back of my mind.

It’s your Weekly Achievement Thread! What kick-assery did you get down to this week? Let us know here so we can celebrate with you!

I have been absolute ball of stress for the last few months between grad school, work, and family. At times, I’ve felt truly depressed and like I would never stop being unhappy. Today I finished what needed to be finished and now I get to just rest. I hope that any of you that are feeling the pressure are doing ok and…

What Rude Negro said.

Nah. Not when people are fighting for respect in all aspects of society. Shame her for being a racist, or any number of things she has done that set back progress for humankind.

The backlash against that idea was strong, but she says she only found out about it from friends, since she avoids social media.
