Oh dear, perhaps Snark and it's Uses 101 would be time well spent. Seriously though, I was just trying to be funny. I do know my Starks from my Lannisters from my Baratheons, et. al.

I am also an official Old, but I read the books before the show came along, so I was contractually obligated to watch.

Because it's NOT FUCKING FAIR, and yet it's the society we live in, and it's not something you can fix by yourself. It's SYSTEMIC, like racism. So every single fucking day, women must make the choice to NOT have things (like careers) OR to put up with shitty men. Because it's not like society - the police, the courts, friends, family, etc. - will DO anything about what just happened to them. After all, what was she wearing? She went to his hotel room, what did she think was going to happen? He performed oral sex on her - she should be happy! If this still doesn't make sense to you, then congratulations. You have the privilege of not having to make these calculations.

Hi, sorry to be a week late getting to this.

We don't do "some horrible person in the news might get raped in prison, and that's just great and hilarious, hurr hurr" here. Because it's rape. And if you think the prospect of someone being raped is hilarious or a fine idea, you may want to rethink your assumptions on that point.

Yes, even someone as horrible as Weinstein.

Please review the rules.

It's the power dynamic. He's not just any man. He is was a man who can make or break their entire careers. You must see that, right?

Log off of disqus. Power down your computer. Then power up the computer and log on to disqus again. That usually works for me.

Mrs. Peel had a good last act.

Not a Federal case so no Trump pardon.

Unless Trump declares a national emergency, shuts down all state and local courts, and assumes his rightful role as King. I can't imagine that Bill Barr would raise any questions.
