This is indeed some strange shit, when Stern is taking the unequivocal moral high ground.

Yeah, just listen further in the interview to be even more thoroughly disgusted. Tarantino’s defense, when asked why he sides with Polanski’s version of events instead of the court testimony of the victim, and why it is not rape, though it is against the law:

Also, the drugged 13 yr old girl still said no to Polanski, more than once. It wasn’t statutory rape. It was, in the immortal words of Whoopie Goldberg, “rape rape.”

Right now I’m imagining Quentin Tarantino in a cell with ‘Law and Order: SVU’’s Detective Stabler.

Actually, it was both statuatory rape, and forcible rape, He drugged her, He held her down, he anally raped her twice, while she repeatedly said no and begged him to stop: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/file/roman-polanski-grand-jury-transcript?page=27

Is there a word in some other language that captures the feeling “I always hated this guy, and I feel both sad and smug knowing they are the trash heap I suspected they were”?

as much as i’ve frowned and sighed over her fame and surgeries, etc, it was a good reminder that she’s a person, she’s a woman, she’s very young and she has hopes and wants and feelings the same as the rest of us. like, god, i could stop being such a judgmental rag and be happy when people seem happy, regardless of…

I had no idea they were doing this; they were very syruptitious about it.

“Little Velcro sneakers” are you kidding me!? I need this kind of pure sweetness in my life.

My sister worked with someone who had a service mini-horse to help with their visual impairment. That thing was awesome. It wore little velcro sneakers inside. It was smart as a whip and so well-behaved.

Not fighting with you, but with all due respect, I can think in at least one scenario where that “mother” should totally have ever kept that kid: she gets the help she needs - and its an obligation of the State to provide! -, hopefuly recovers, and go on becoming a good mother. You call it “insanity”, I call it…

Peacocks are freaking MEAN. I wouldn’t want one on my flight, honestly.

Well, we would have a president devoted to abortion rights and passing the ERA and whose infrastructure plan involved getting lead out of paint, water and soil and switching the us to mainly renewable energy, who wasn’t engaged in a nuclear pissing contest with North Korea and didn’t torpedo peace between Palestine…

But he still did it in a public place so he could traumatize more people.

God, it is SO easy to get the Santa Ana Winds song stuck in my head, and I NEVER hate it.

Although it doesn’t make narrative sense, after seeing this instagram photo all I want now is to see White Josh settle down in domestic bliss with the Santa Ana Winds:

Wow - I thought you guys were never mean, just *sassy* !
