Totally. Same. I’m happy that these conversations are now happening.

Agreed. I don’t see a court enforcing any of these NDAs because trying to prohibit someone from reporting a crime or violation of statutes such as Title XII goes against well-established public policy. I was also going to add that if the NDA is tied to a settlement/release agreement, the company could arguably try to…

Long, slow clap. Thank you.

This all day. If my non-modeling ass has known that Terry Richardson is a serial sexual assaulter, OF COURSE Conde Nast (and every magazine publisher and modeling agency in the world) knew about him. This is all about the fear that, now that this conversation is finally happening, there will be financial blow back.…

Whenever I stop and allow myself to truly absorb the reality we’re living in right now, this is my exact reaction.

Yep. Got it. I guess I just know that they aren’t.

Well, damn...thank you for making my night, Elbow.

All of this! (Most) babies aren’t that hard and they are really resilient. As Brene Brown says, “babies are hardwired for struggle.” I had my kids a long time ago but I give myself props for being pretty laid back about everything. The parents you’re babysitting for might be neurotic about things, in which case I’m…

Thank you for that. It really does suck, right? It’s been like a cloud over my head all day today. Not that this is about me - at all. I actually polled my kids today - 18, 16 (boys) and 13 (girl). I left out the details, such as “it’s your preschool teacher” (I mean) and I just put it to them as a “what do you think…

It is eating at me, you’re right. I woke up thinking about it. I think it’s because she is constantly posting pictures of their kids and their family together. I get that the images people post on social media is often times the complete opposite of their reality, or at least I tell myself that, but I’m always so…

It’s 100% him. The thing is, it’s SO BOLD that at first I did think, hmmmm, I wonder if someone stole his picture. But everything about it - including the SECOND picture he put up, plus the college and 2 grad schools, plus the location (it said he was within 1 mile of me), tells me it’s him.

True. She’s a bible-thumper so I think I just assumed I didn’t have to factor that in, but that’s sort of my sentiment, too - not my business.

So I’m sure I’m not the first one to run into this problem, but I could use some quality group think...Against my better judgment, I allowed myself to get talked into trying Tinder this weekend. Suffice to say, I lasted about 14 hours. OUT. But while I was perusing the wasteland tonight for one final spin, I saw the…

(This thread is so cathartic and validating...) I was 17 and was working as at a science museum that also had an Imax theater. I decided to play on the work softball team because, you know, I liked playing sports and thought it would be fun. The team would all go out for pizza and beers after and they always insisted…

Could I? I would be all over that. I promise I would have your best interests in mind in exchange for me just never having to work again.

Right? She makes him sound like he’s Larry Fucking Tate. Give me a fucking break. Megan Amram (comedy writer) tweeted something like, “I came of age in the 2010s when you could treat women any way you want. That was just the culture then.” Even if he was 85, he would know by now that he’s a disgusting, angry predator…

I volunteer once a month as a clinic escort and one of the loons who was there today was trying to foist some bullshit pamphlet in the window of a car that had pulled up in front. I went over to not-politely-at-all hip check her away from the window and as I was telling the passenger that I was with the clinic and…

Having sex must result in having a baby when it’s someone else’s baby. If their side cookie gets pregnant, then they will shut that shit down.

So I have 2 different sources for knowing this guy is an absolute menace. My tween daughter is an actor and though we don’t live in LA, we’re there quite a bit. I have to be on the set with her at all times but there is so much down time, especially when she’s off doing a scene and I’m just sitting there for hours.…

I’m sorry to read what happened to you and your family. It’s unimaginable to me and I now have second-hand rage for what you went through. I was coming to write something similar to what you just did: if CPS goes into an investigation assuming an injury was caused by a parent, rather than going into it with a truly…
