This statue was always a publicity stunt, and the fact that people bought into it as such a “powerful pro women” message was so cringey when it was simply an advertisement.

Since when do colonizers wait for an invite?

He hasnt been accused by any of those people or Bubbles. 

I have not read a single thing that stated the victims will be puppets. I dont see how its possible to have a musical in this way respectfully address the allegations of abuse. But I also see the point in making up things up either

But defense attorneys don’t merely guarantee that a fair trail is held and the defendant’s legal rights are not violated - indeed, that’s primarily the duty of the trial judge and appeals courts. The primary duty of the defense attorney is to advocate his (usually guilty) client’s (usually false, or otherwise…

Defense lawyers don't defend their client's actions, they defend their legal right to have their case examined and tried by a court of law. It is one of the foundations of democracy, everyone has the right to a fair trial

With all due respect, why does that matter and why are your bringing this here? This article isn’t about Michael’s children, so there’s no reason to parse their parentage. Further, even if the truth is that they were adopted from pure Aryan breeding stock hidden away in a hermetically sealed utopian biodome, they’re…

John Legend and Kelly Clarkson have presented us with the first entry: an updated version that considers the notion of consent

She also had sex with a subordinate ... we keep forgetting that one. She resigned for that reason. The revenge porn is a separate and distinct issue, but she should have resigned for fucking a subordinate ... it’s 2019, you don’t do that shit. The legality of what happened to her because her husband found out is truly…

No, she didn’t, at least not to the tune of a double digit billion payday.

Thank you for this, Stassa. I made a similar comment under a story a few days ago, and I watched the 60 minutes segment last night. I had a similar reaction. I was uncomfortable with the framing of both the Texas Ranger and of Little. When he spoke in the interviews, it’s clear he’s not a genius, nor did he come…

Part of it was that the director didn’t choose him, one of the female performers she hired chose him.

Not to defend this, but if I recall correctly, it was more about the female performer in question. Casey Calvert, at least I think it was her, had requested to work with Deen in a rough scene because he was one of the few she trusted to the degree to consent to what was being done there. So I imagine that from their…

Are we going to cancel the mainstream movie industry as well, because basically all of those things apply to Hollywood as well. And finance, and tech, and the restaurant industry...it’s almost like abuse, sexism, and racism touch every facet of society.

Democrats: “Bernie is bad on race.”

Well, anyone who’s ever spent time in Philly knows the horror of the bathrooms at Dirty Frank’s. After banging in both of those, I decided to top myself by banging a guy in the alley out back. (Mind you, these bangings were spread out over several years, obviously I’m a very classy gal). But I don’t think it gets much…

On top of my ex? He hated showering so only did it once or twice a month. He liked it when I would lightly scratch his back (not as part of sex, just as a relaxing thing) and I would end up with gunk under my nails afterward. My explanation is I was... going through a lot.

So because random internet commenter “Harry” isn’t capable of doing any better, that gives Jalopnik a pass?

Remember her Charles Taylor testimony? This ain’t her first rodeo.

Wait, is she saying she didn’t go to the ER after the “wreck?” What, did the nice ambulance drivers just taxi her to her house???
