This is what being an ally looks like! Thank you, John Oliver, for using your privilege to hold Hoffman accountable. For any men wondering ‘what do I do’, this is it. You speak up and don’t let abusers get away with idiotic responses.

My guess is that Brock is trying to get off the sex offender registry. Daddy’s friends will always give him a job, but the sex offender registry is its own nasty beast that he can’t buy his way out of.

Good samaritans saved poor kitty. Hey cat! Mayo never do that again!

“I do not mean to disparage Ruggere’s compassion or mock her attempt to help a feline condiment fiend, but how do you let a cat with a jar on its head get away once the jar is in your hand? Seems like as a human without a jar on your head, you have a huge advantage over the cat whose entire world has been supplanted…

Yeah people point to the “fact” that he was never abusive in his earlier relationships as proof he could never be abusive to this one woman. 1) that’s just dumb and 2) even taking into consideration that abusers typically have a pattern, how do they know he wasn’t in fact abusive to other women in other ways?

Or just “he was cast and in contract before those allegations came out”, which I believe is true because they cast him for the first one and probably signed him for all 3 at that point.

I don’t know why Yates just didn’t say either “He was the best actor for the job” or “I had nothing to with casting” or something else innocuous instead of calling Heard a liar. Talk about being tone deaf.

I find it interesting (though not really) that the people who defend Depp by saying that he wasn’t previously abusive can’t manage to take into account that he’s gone through many behavior changes in the past few years that he also didn’t necessarily exhibit before. He used to be a pretty good actor, now he’s a…

I know! Colin Farrell was so great, and then we get Depp? Why?

Colin Farrell was so perfect in the otherwise mostly mediocre Fantastic Beasts having his face be torn away to show Johnny Depp’s was the most disappointing moment in cinema. Fuck Yates for his shitty comments and his shitty casting.

One person claiming abuse is enough.

It’s because they are all about projection. They lie, therefore they are convinced we lie too.

A few months into the Trump administration, a WaPo journalist retweeted a call for the Trump faithful to inundate the paper with fake scoops to prove how easily fooled the reporters were and said basically, “Yeah, you guys have been trying this for months. We just haven’t printed any of your fake news because we…

It’s so cool how the New York Times bends over backwards to give a platform and voice to people who want me dead because of the color of my skin.

It’s called “Whataboutism” and it’s a much used deflection tool in this administration.

Hey guys!

Also disappointing; Black twitter giving her shit for kissing a white dude. Because in 2017 interracial relationships aren’t ok anymore I guess?

I think you bring up a good point, and no, I don’t think it’s inherently wrong to believe the men you love. However, if you’re a public figure like Lena, and you feel the need to release a statement that the victim is lying, even though you have no way of actually knowing what happened, that’s where you cross a line.

Maybe by staying quiet until She had all the facts? All they basically did was make the writer’s situation even worse by inserting themselves into the story.
