The whole Hanoi Jane thing was a setup. She was a pretty naive peace protester who jumped at the opportunity to show the North Vietnamese as human beings who wanted peace as much as people in the US did. The North Vietnamese exploited this by cajoling her to pose on a anti-aircraft gun. Read more
None of the people I’ve ever heard call Jane Fonda “Hanoi Jane” were veterans. Read more
Luvvie Ajayi had a great take on this story—there’s a pay discrepancy in play here, and Sykes and Mo’Nique deserve a lot more that what they were offered. I’m not sure they should have Amy Schumer money simply based on box office power—a little different than a resumé—at this point in time. But they deserve A LOT more… Read more
If Netflix doesn’t use resumes* to determine pay, then WTF else is there to use? Happy feelings when they meet the person? Read more
My friend and I watch this show together on Thursdays and we always are like “Remember when Abby got blackmailed because she thought she could be president?”

I just rewatched seasons 1-5 (I am pretending season 6 never happened) and while I didn’t love Quinn all of the time, I will take Quinn every time over Abby. I can’t with Abby and she was worse the second time around. I also lost my love for Cyrus the second time around, but I also learned that I will miss Susan Ross… Read more
The thing is they’re claiming the Church is behind the release but they talk about it being extracted from the guy during that e-testing nonsense. So effectively it could be that the allegations are true but they’re using the bad image of the church as smearing by association themselves. Read more
Yeah, this is a pretty...unique situation. Read more
They build entire websites making false accusations against former member who speak out about them. Seizing the moment of Women vs. Hollywood in this case against Haggis surprises literally no one who pays attention to CoS and their misdeeds. Read more
I knowwwwwww... I feel torn too. This feels like the kind of thing they would take the opportunity to exploit. I don’t know what to think. CoS would go that low. Read more
I made the mistake of not realizing it was satire (I think I read it drunk), and making a legit comment about it. So every year, without fail, someone comments on my fucking 2011/2012 comment and is like “DON’T YOU REALIZE THIS IS SATIRE???!!!11!!” I want to state for the record now - GUYS, I realize now it is satire.… Read more
I liked it except that I think they chose the most boring story they could have told for the interesting universe they created. Will Smith spouting one-liners is boring. Read more
Yeah, typically when you tell someone you don’t want to have sex with them you have a reasonable expectation that sex is off the table until further notice, not that they’ll wait a few minutes and fuck you anyway. Read more
A dude in my friend group at uni told almost the exact same story. The girl didn’t want to have sex, they had sex, she cried, the dude was all wtf? What the hell is wrong with men? Read more
The amount of times I’ve encountered guys on tinder who complain about women who say they don’t want to hook up then hook up on the first date is astounding. Like I’m sure some are being coy but how many are being coerced? Read more
Men know rape is a bad word, but think the action of rape is just fine. They refuse to admit otherwise.

I’m fascinated by the line “She said she didn’t want to have sex, and then we started to have sex.” He doesn’t say “She told me she changed her mind and really wanted to sleep with me,” or that she went to tyr bathroom for condoms , just that they started having sex, and considering she started crying it certainly… Read more
