 It’s called critical thinking dude. They teach it in grade school. Clearly Manson was a monster. This guy isn’t trying to suggest otherwise. But humans are complex, multifaceted creatures; even the ones who do horrible things. And he got to know Charles Manson as something other than the monster the rest of the world

IonizedDare is clearly a little off his rocker himself. Just look at how insistent he is that the grandson is a psychopath purely because he needs some help raising funeral funds. Me thinks IonizedDare feels some uncomfortable mental kinship with Manson, and is lashing out as a result.

Call me when it’s that price for digital. I already have a physical copy, but I’m trying to pare down my library of keepers to digital only.

Are you really incapable of seeing the difference between real children being harmed vs disgusting, but purely imaginary fantasy?

After George Takei, I’m not even sure they’re safe.

You say that, and you can quote resolutions at me all day. But standing in front of two displays and LOOKING at them is a completely different experience. Which is why I think you’re either lying, or completely deluded.

I see all kinds, that kind included. I see the homeless alcoholics that accept and acknowledge what they are, but are quite happy with how they’ve ended up as long as they can scrap together enough for a can of Camo. I see the homeless alcoholics that want nothing more in life than to get clean, but either can’t do

There’s that last word. You’re just angry because you’re wrong.

Spoken like someone that never actually experienced the shift up from SD to HD. How old are you, kid?

Perfectly fine to destroy people economically and oppress them politically. But they better not dare start throwing punches, otherwise the GOP will feel justified in every horrible thing it’s ever done to people.

Genius retort. Not expecting an actual professional to show up in here when you’re popping your mouth off?

Okay dipshit. I only have a family full of alcoholics and work professionally with alcoholics. What the fuck would I know.

You are literally giving the opposite advice of anyone that has ever had to live with an alcoholic. You are recommending that he continue enabling her. This is BAD ADVICE.

I work with homeless alcoholics, and there’s one guy in particular I’m thinking of right now. He’s fresh to the streets. Still has nice clothes, and is well groomed, he’s that new to sleeping without a roof. Every time I see him, I ask if he’s ready to get get sober, and the answer is always no. He’d rather experience

Conversely, my family is full of alcoholics (including both parents), and not a single one of them has ever gotten sober and stayed that way.

I wonder if Louie CK is shitting his pants right now, just hoping the roulette wheel doesn’t come up on him next.

Man, this is another Bill Cosby situation, and you’re a fool if you think Spacey is innocent in this. Rumors of him acting this way, and being this predatory have been around for YEARS. The damn just broke, because everybody is finally feeling emboldened to stand their ground.

Granted, Netflix should have absolutely done something. But characterizing this as a “Netflix” problem is disingenuous, as its actually a “Hollywood” problem that’s allowed him to continue on like this for decades.

“the new film will center on Dora as a teenager (Megan Fox?), who moves to the city to live with her cousin, Diego”

I wonder if this could be considered a velcro/bandaid/xerox thing at this point?
