Complicit in the sense of NOT taking any “leadership action” to address these issues either through action (start trying to filter those with access to guns, or reduce the flow), or words (even a sympathetic “we’re sorry for your loss”).

Mike Hunt got trimmed. Sloppy scheduling.

Because as a country we’ve become completely desensitized to mass shootings.

You aren’t wrong.

I intend to put myself out there one day as “The Salty Walrus.”

I look forward to the consternation suffusing the commentary surrounding my social media presence: “Is it a walrus? Is it a person? Is it suffering from high blood pressure due to an overabundance of sodium in its diet? THE WORLD MUST KNOW!”

Just because you have weird sexual hang ups doesnt mean *no one likes the idea of being sexual with another person*. She was filling the Femme Fatale role of a…

“ultimately the movie ends with him and his wife happy and in love together like nothing ever happened”

Why do you think it’s your job to speculate as to missing puzzle pieces? It’s not like news isn’t coming out regarding famous people all the time right now. Maybe wait for more details to actually come out rather than halfway accusing him of enabling rape because you didn’t like a scene in one of his movies. You don’t…
