It must be awful to be so scared of looking weak that you can’t even show your mother/wife/sister/daughter that you support and love them. This is what we mean when we say feminism is for men, too. It defies these rigid gender roles that keep both men and women from living their lives the way they want to.

It’s actually long past time, but better late than never. Thank you for your service, Mr. Spires.

Kind of off-topic, but just occurred to me:
How many other crimes is, “Well, the victim didn’t say ‘No’...” a justification for? You don’t see a lawyer defending their client saying, “Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, Mr. Johnson never told my client he didn’t want his car stolen, so Mr. Johnson assumed it was OK.”

Can’t go myself, but knitting pussyhats and hosting/producing an anti-Trump burlesque benefit show (all proceeds to Southern Poverty Law Center) on Inauguration night.

Fat and old is the best. They will totally not even notice the middle-aged white lady until after I’ve thrown the molotov cocktail.

Wow. That’s some judgemental bullshit. Why would she talk to people who felt that her life was ‘ultimately less fulfilling’ than theirs because she doesn’t have a plus one for major holidays? I want my friends’ empathy, not their pity or their platitudes. Thanks for confirming that you’re just as obnoxious as Aimee’s…

Why can’t she be both happily single and still sad that she doesn’t have someone? I don’t believe that feelings are an either/or. Maybe when she was surrounded by seemingly happy couples she did get sad about not having that in her life. And maybe the next day she was eating cheetos in bed naked watching Real…

Agreed. Even if they had done a background check before his admission, it wouldn’t have shown anything since the indictment didn’t happen until 2015, which is after he was already attending the university. Certainly an accused rapist could lie on an admissions form.

As for the scholarship, why would Loyola do a…

Depends on the scholarship. He didn’t have the scholarship to initially attend Loyola; article says he got a scholarship his senior year at Loyola. He could have gotten a small amount, which is not worth the time for the administration to do a deep dive into his background, especially if he was already a student in…

No, she doesn’t have to perform, but it’s probably something that gives her life meaning. If performing gives your life purpose, you can’t quit performing because of depression; that just leaves you even more depressed.

As a performer with depression myself, I often think, “Maybe I’ll feel better if I get out and do…

Why does that matter? I repeat:

The point is that whether the butter went in, on or around her naked or clothed anus is moot. Using the butter as a simulated or real lubricant was a sexualized act that she did not consent to. It’s a violation and a crime.

Yes, my goodness. The oppression of this poor man making millions of dollars directing a major motion picture.

I know I’m using logic where it doesn’t apply but... if government is the common enemy, why is Clarke a Sheriff? A sheriff is part of the government.

Doesn’t need to be an actual religion, as long as it’s a ‘sincerely held belief’. (I’m in HR, using my powers for good.)

Reminds me of the holiday parties at the software company I worked at in the late 90s. They rented out the Field Museum in Chicago. There was an open bar about every 20 feet. You couldn’t take liquor into the exhibits, but you could get hammered and go visit the mummies. This was right when Sue the dinosaur came to…

If you are on your phone during a movie or worse, live performance, you should be shamed repeatedly.

Well, he’s a white guy, so I’m going to go with “mental instability”. (Only white people get to claim mental illness when they commit terrorist acts.)

NYE Hercules marathon.

We know Kanye is bi-polar? This is news to me.
