“At the time, people talked of inciting a minor to debauchery, or indecent assault...But nobody ever spoke of crime,”

Some of the people below are trying to make a case for his innocence because the woman he raped has kept silent about it. Well, 1, it was almost certainly part of her settlement that she could NOT talk about it and 2. after watching how reporters and journalists are attacked just for asking a question about it, what

Bullshit, a real Canuck would have apologized after that rant.

Well written, smart, fair piece. Hope you don’t get roasted for it.

I find youth pastors to be extra manipulative pieces of shit.

Something about cynically/deludely bullshitting the same large group of people every week, just seems to attract a certain type.

I don’t want to say that anyone deserves aggressive lung cancer, but if it had to be anybody then I’m glad it’s Rush Limbaugh. I can’t wait for him to enter the bad place and experience butthole spiders and chainsaw bears.

Is it wrong my first thought about Rush was, “Good. Karma is working.”

Aaah! Thoughts and prayers for me because I have to go to a birthday dinner for my narcissistic, selfish, angry mother, who I just told a few days ago that I’m moving to Central America. You know what’s for dinner tonight? That would be me. She’s going to be insanely angry that I’m leaving her, that’s how she’ll see

Cisneros encouraged everyone to read the book and should they find that they don’t like it, “put it down and do some serious introspection about why you really don’t like it . . . find out what you’re really upset about.”

I read the first half of it (pirated, not looking to give up any royalty money). All cultural issues aside, it’s just bad. It’s clumsy and poorly written.

The book may or may not be good - I’ll never know - but what caught my attention the most (in a bad way) was Cummins’ tone-deafness in getting a barbed-wire manicure and having a “cute” barbed-wire wrapped themed book signing party, etc. Like, HEY, I just wrote a book on Dachau! We’re going to have fake arm tattoos

Yeah...this is some next-level implication right here. 

Wow. It’s a black coat dress and not a blue dress, but this is getting odd here. Also, our President is a full on rapist. No question.

thrust “his penis halfway—or completely, I’m not certain—inside me.”

Stormy pointed to the one on the far left...

Kelis ruined Nas for me, and that’s okay. I’d rather not support an abusive POS’s music.
