Maybe he wanted to get caught? I don’t have a theory on exactly why he would, but this incident kind of reminds me of something that happened when I was in high school. During my sophomore year, one day somebody posted incredibly racist flyers on the lockers on all of the black students in school. Everyone was…

“______ had a network too. Friends, family, people he worked with. None of them held him accountable,” noting that “He couldn’t have done this without them.”

He literally described himself as an Independent in that press release the other week saying that he was going to give a response to the SOTU in addition to the Democratic response.

For as much as he talks about this monolithic The People, Bernie sure does seem to only view himself as the one who should lead it...

Also he’s 77. He would be 78 by the time he’s sworn in. Trump at 72 is the oldest president we’ve ever had, and I’d rather that trend die with him. 

Nope.

It’s amazing what people will overlook. I was watching that “Abducted In Plain Sight” documentary recently and the brother of the kidnapper blew me away. He was all “yeah, well I always knew he was a pedophile, whatever”. Like, his whole attitude just didn’t care. He watched his brother have a family and access to…

I have a friend who was paid out of a gig with him, after he pulled this shit with her. Courtesy of his manager, who of course apologized profusely for Ryan’s behavior. Fuck Ryan Adams, fuck everyone who enabled his actions and fuck everyone who looks the other way when their friends/family/associates pull this shit.…

I think it’s fair to withhold judgement a bit longer, but it’s definitely not looking good for him at this point. At the very least, it seems highly likely that the attack was orchestrated/coordinated by someone with involved with Empire.  I suppose there’s still a chance that person is not Jussie.

Like I’ve said elsewhere, I gave Smollett the benefit of the doubt when I heard the story, but a lot of high profile folks (Ellen Page being a good example) went a step further and launched into bromides about how this incident basically proves their narrative about the white cisgendered heteropatriarchy.

It’s those…

Well said. I am reserving judgment on who is telling the truth and who is not until the facts are in. I expect that will be shortly.  Until then, this is all so strange and has already taken twists and turns, I don’t know what the hell really happened.

Undeniably the same shape/same amount of stones but somehow Kerr’s ring was 10000000000x better. I must, against my will, admit that I find it weird.

Der Himmel über Berlin, also starring the late Peter Falk. Sniff sniff... tis the end of an era...

The Heiress is a great movie, even if de Havilland was a ridiculous piece of casting as a woman that a man could only possibly love for her money.

She was really fascinating in that she managed to outgrow baby June AND get out from under her sisters shadow. Her later life interviews are really special, full of no-fucks-left-to-give wisdom.

Adams has publicly displayed abusive behaviors from the beginning of his career. With critics (the Jim DeRogatis voice mail?). With fans (the guy he had kicked out of a concert for yelling that he play “Summer of ‘69"?). With other artists (his feud with the Strokes?). With significant others (trashing Mandy Moore for…

The word prejudice doesn’t actually imply hate or race. Prejudice could be formed on the basis of any characteristic, and can be positive or negative, like a stereotype. It simply means pre-judgement, making your mind up ahead of time about a person.

This is the actual Merriam-Webster Dictionary definition of Racism:
“1: a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race

is it so hard for people to say, ‘hey i screwed up, i once did X, im an asshole for it, and very sorry. I wouldnt think of doing this ever again, judge me as you will.’

I personally consider Jackson’s crimes and the fact that he never faced justice shameful, but to each their own idea of “shameful”, I guess.
