Conan launched a ton of careers lmao
He also wrote the best simpsons episodes
Yeah I’m aware conan was involved in simpsons and snl and shit but hey he’s not that funny on his talk show. He’s kind of annoying
Jimmy’s just a coke-riddled travesty and needs to be removed to a mental home
As for the parkland dad: it’s a rich white guy who gets to co-opt gun violence and it’s working.
Now’s the point where you guys tell me I’m doing to these talk show hosts what I criticized others for doing to those accused of rape
Public figures really are the biggest victims in our society aren’t they fellas (aside from the victims of rape that is)
You’re you lmao can you help that?
Watch his documentary about being on tour after NBC and you get to see how much he’s under the microscope
Have you had consensual sex yet
Do you think any talk show hosts are good
Today? Or this week?
Letterman was good early on. I like older late night Conan episodes and I thought Colbert report was ok. I also liked arsenio hall and some of the early comedian driven hbo talk shows. My favorite is the Larry shandling show which was a fake talk show
I hope you fuck, jing

@iafr probably just make it easier and less shameful for them to report at the time it happens
Notice how all this stuff comes flowing out when it’s brought up unwillingly - Dr. Ford talking about it because he’s being appointed to Supreme Court, #MeToo happening because women see other rapes being put in the spotlight
It’s clear this stuff is being bottled up and that’s a problem. Probably a childhood training problem. Like young people need to be taught to tell someone if they’re abused and taught that they aren’t to blame and they don’t need to be ashamed, etc, etc. I’m really not an expert on all this emotional shit but there are experts out there who are very good with this stuff.
In terms of old accusations coming to light probably do away with the circus and political nonsense. It’s really hard to get any truth out of a situation like this because the Republicans are going to be persistent in their political obligation to defend the guy and the Democrats are going to be really vicious in their attacks (attacks, not attempts to reach truth).
Unfortunately, as I mentioned, in old cases like this it seems like the victims usually would rather let it lie than bring it all up again. Even if they did bring it up again, it might not have any impact or go anywhere if he’s not a public figure who can be dragged through the mud. So in a way it’s the fact that it can have such an impact which makes it possible for the crime to even come out.
Good use of the hamburger method
One thing I’m really curious about because I don’t understand it at all is the male (or perp - perps can be female) side of things.
You’ve probably noticed I try to be empathetic in all things and understand people whenever I can. But I really just don’t understand the perpetrator’s mentality in doing the act and in the years following and thus it’s hard to make some suggestion for how we can solve the root problem: people raping.
It’s hard to find the guys to talk to because you see all these women coming forward sayign “i was raped” but relatively few men out there making equal and opposite twitlonger posts saying “I was a rapist.”
I figure they probably convince themselves they were justified/it wasn’t rape or just aren’t aware of the extent to which it has negative consequences on the victim’s life. But then again I’ve heard some, when confronted, just show no concern for how it affected the victim whatsoever. So clearly I’m just making shit up.
So I guess what I’m saying to all of you is if you’ve ever raped or sexually assaulted someone I want to talk to you. Send me a PM. Let’s chat.
not intentional but thank you
A lot of abusers were abused themselves, getting the perpetrators brought to justice and removing the stigma of surviving rape is tantamount
Whew...
No one wants to listen to perpetrators. Why would you care about the opinion of someone who has done wrong? Basically what society does.
Better than waiting 20 odd years and then only getting closure by being a raper yourself
