This conflation of appearance and work prowess could go the other way as well. “I remember looking at people that we were going to interview for the project and [Morgan and Jeremy] kind of making an assessment based on what they looked like,” a former producer who worked with the company in 2009 says. “Like, oh I wish

Man, I feel like this has been the month of That Guy.

Liked for the first half of your comment.

Had more Bernie supporters come out and supported Jill Stein...

That’s your take? A guy voluntarily sticks his head in a microwave, fills it with an expanding, hardening substance, and then films it with the intention of profiting from it... and you come away from all of that saying that the FIRE DEPARTMENT should be ashamed of themselves for calling out his idiocy?

Justin Timberlake is also not getting the heat Kate Winslet is for being in the new Woody Allen movie.

But he was allowed to get away with it when he did it on the Superman Returns set. A film that was both a critical flop and failed it’s projections. He didn’t just get away with it either, he went on to do multiple comic book movies. Mind you at some point in that period, two different men sued him for molestation and

Part of me thinks this ‘health matter’ could just be a cover for Singer laying low ahead of even more damning harassment/assault allegations.

Sure, perhaps they should have known better. Perhaps it was naive for any of these women to go into Weinstein’s hotel room expecting to be treated professionally and respectfully there. But then what? Just give up, leave their careers, and go home? Part of the problem is what Weinstein did to those women in his hotel

There is a difference between advising women not to let their guard down and saying that women who ostensibly have let their guard down are making excuses for fucking up when they get raped while their guard is down. Will I advise my daughter to be careful and not drink too much at parties lest she end up incapable of

Look, some women can be the most ardent supporters of an oppressive patriarchal system. Pam has survived in spite of/by virtue of her physical attributes all her life and can’t see the forest for the trees.

See, it’s good, to me, that we’re in the habit of asking every A-list actor who continues to work with Woody Allen why they’re doing that.

I see where you are coming from. I really do.

Congratulations, you have contributed to why people don’t come forward!

You don’t need to know the context or the entirety of the conversation to know that ‘Did you fuck all your sources?” is inappropriate question. Fuck’s sake. If someone is ignorant, it’s still harassment.

One fun context clue to figure out if this question wasn’t appropriate is that the woman who was asked the question is saying that it wasn’t appropriate.

Right? 20 people are shot and we dim the lights and Hallelujah is plucked out on the harpsichord and the brave late-show host stands up with one tear glinting in his eye and solemnly reports the news and, while choked on a sob, tells the nation that we should be better than this. (And we really should be! No arguments

I cried almost all night last night because a coworker did/said 2 inappropriate things to me in the span of 2 weeks. He was someone I liked, I found harmless and nice and still don’t feel threatened by, just disgusted and humiliated. I took a mental health day today to figure out how to report him. He’s been with the

No, see here’s the thing. When you have power in a workplace and you “ask to consensually masturbate” someone can’t actually give proper consent because they risk losing their job if they say no.

Holy shit, Uma Thurman’s fury is everything right now.
