There is a whole continent of space between holding something in that’s eating you up, and inappropriately sharing that issue on a goddamn press junket.

Let’s not confuse and cheapen the issue by making it about race.

No kidding—according to the article, Casey Calvert (no small name in the industry, as I understand it) specifically asked to work with Deen, and has been working with Deen. Whereas there might have been some kind of too-short arc with Deen in the rest of the industry, it sounds like Calvert may never have bought it in…

This is the point of “running.” We look at your record and vet you. This is part of her record, and thus we should examine it carefully.

I’m worried about this increasing trend of counter suits when someone reports sexual assaults....

They just released him without charge and cleared him to leave the country.  Like, what are you talking about?

No calls to stop listening to Mariah?

I really like AOC’s policies, but the response of her colleagues seems pretty human; haven’t most of us been annoyed at a new coworker who shows up with grand ideas (that are potentially great and wonderful!) and starts pushing for them without even getting a sense of how those ideas might have failed in the past, or…

No. You don’t share your boyfriend’s dick pics with your friends. I don't care how close friends you are, you just don't. That's weird on so many levels.

Men: Ugh you can’t even say hi to a woman in the workplace anymore without her crying about sexual harassment

I am so down the middle about it, I remember him hanging out with all those famous child stars and thinking it was so very weird, but literally none of them said anything happened. Corey Feldman is a huge advocate for victims of childhood abuse and would be the first one to step up and say something- and he’s said…

Great questions. In our attempt to not ‘kink-shame,’ do we unwittingly condone violence against women? Also, can something be considered a ‘kink’ when it is actually so widespread and mirrors normative disenfranchisement? Is an onscreen degradation of another human being always to be considered innocuous? Or do these…

Do we ever speak of the consumer end of this? The audience for humiliation, violation and abuse? What does this say about us as a whole? How do we change? Where is our responsibility?

This whole back and forth epitomizes why I loathe the concept of forgiveness.

I haven’t been this disappointed since I discovered that interracial porn hasn’t yet healed our racial divisions.

I’m guessing it is that he is black and talks slang.  the old white guy doesn’t like that

This shit is so absurd. The NFL is just like any other corporation.  It's nature is to make money as efficiently as possible. That's it. They are not good or bad, they just are. Why in the world is it their responsibility to conduct criminal investigations?  It's not, and maybe that is why they are bad at it and don't…

I have never tipped at a hotel (other than room service but that’s basically like tipping for food delivery). I never will, tipping is bullshit. Pay your fucking staff.

Because it is not expected?

Wait, we’re suppose to tip hotel housekeeping staff now? When did this start? Has this always been a thing?
