I love her response. It captures perfectly my feelings re: Franken. I do believe forgiveness and repentance are possible...but first there has to be the reckoning. And always, the victims should come first.

Ugh my dear Pamela! This idea resonates with me. Yes, women can become complicit but we can’t drag women for the actions of the men around them. We all do things that we’re not proud of to get by in this world, just put your head down to survive. It is up to the perpetrators to stop, we shouldn’t place the burden on…

She reiterates throughout that nothing criminal went on, only that it was, in her opinion, rude, gross and compulsive.

This felt more honest than all of the Michael Che, John Oliver, Stewart, et al statements combined.

Maybe she feels as if she’s reached a level of maturity and as a female rapper, can speak on this. Or maybe she needs ratings for her new show.

Thank you - I’ve been so torn on what to think about Sarah and Pamela and Tig. They don’t get a pass, but they don’t deserve full scorn because don’t we as women always choose sometimes not to fight because if we fought all the fucking time it’d be exhausting?

Are people just watching porn right up until quitting time and then going “Welp, I’ll have to finish up during the walk to the car.” ? What is happening O_o

Because it wasn’t criminal in her case. If you look through her twitter feed from Nov 9th, she is apparently relaying a story about how she and CK dated briefly and broke up while in the midst of a cross country trip. For the rest of the trip, after they’d broken up, she said he masturbated naked on the bed each…

The hell do you work?

If Anna Merlan knew, I can guaran-fucking-tee you Sarah Silverman knew.

She had to have known. Tig Notaro knew and had a massive falling out with him and she and Sarah are close friends. I’d find it hard to believe she was unaware.

That was a great statement actually. She doesn’t have to disown someone she cares about but she DID own the fact that he did something awful and she needs to do some soul searching on how this nets out for her and where her place was in all of it. The avalanche is still in motion....

Silverman doesn’t specify whether she’d known about the allegations before Louis C.K. confirmed them.

Ugh. Only thing that’s worse is when someone makes a vague statement like “Please pray for my baby rn” and then disappears as everyone frantically asks what’s wrong. I’ve been off Facebook for years but I assume people still do this.

Im siding with the verbose cheater because social media pity-fishing is so obnoxious.

I don’t know who he is, but he looks like all three Hansons melded into one.

This is worse than watching After Earth or Man of Steel. I had to pause this five times to get through thirty seconds.

We as a society really need to get over the idea that there are two equal sides to every story. No, we don’t need to have a “dialog” about everything. The world is round, climate change is happening, humans are a product of evolution by natural selection, and racism is wrong. Period. When you treat these people like…

There is a class of people on the Internet who have decided they “win” by upsetting others. They’re the ones who decide that having reasonable, unoffensive discourse is like a minefield... so have decided “fuck it, I’m just gonna start lobbing grenades and hurt everyone around me because I’m a fucking child with no…
