Groovelord Neato posted:it's super creepy. Have they sorted out the details of that one yet? I've seen people claim that they met when she was 15 but didn't start actually dating for another two years which yes is still terrible but is that still illegal?

It’s probably not illegal to date an underage person, right? Only the sex is.

Could be classed as grooming, maybe? Either way, creepy as all hell.

Yeah, the issue with it is not whether it's legal or not.

I always assumed Dane Cook never aged given that he is time-capsule of the year 2006.

When you think about it, a 19-year-old dating a man with a mental age of 14 is highly problematic.

Oh boy, I do not want to read the comments underneath that article. It's especially hosed up to do this to a kid you've known and worked with since he was like 6.

That's a hell of a story. If the account told there is to be believed, she just straight up jumped the guy. They were going to anyway, but any opposers of #metoo are going to have a field day with that one.

Article doesn't say one way or the other whether Bordain knew about it; it just kind of leads you to that conclusion.

It was 9 years ago back when we were all just signing things willy-nilly. Natalie Portman did too. Also just because Bourdain was her boyfriend doesn't mean he was helping her negotiate this? I mean they were both mature adults with businesses and careers and lawyers and whatnot.

Given how vocal he was about rising authoritarianism and how much of an obvious liberal he was (when he met Ted Nugent he specifically said that he was on the opposite end politically among a laundry list of other moments) that one seems like a particular stretch. But never put it past QAnon psychos to make up the weirdest poo poo....

Finding out that you left your wife/kid to hook up with this woman who then turns out to, assuming this is all true, be a bit of a real creepo could be really destructive to your psyche.

So, Asia Argento issued a rebuttal and... Well I think it has some pretty huge gaps in it. https://twitter.com/yashar/status/1031915552699179009?s=19 The first big question is why any previous requests for Argento to say something before the story broke were met with silence.

That statement reads like one that involves legal advice, so I'm guessing she was advised by her lawyer(s) to keep quiet until they could put together a statement to respond to the article and the allegations.

Maybe? The NYT made it clear they tried contacting her multiple times and got silence in return. Beyond that I'm not sure I really get her claim. The guy just approached them and Bourdain said to pay it, for no reason?

The implication in the statement is that it was an ongoing kind of harassment? and Bourdain told them to pay him off so he'd leave them alone? It's as plausible as any other scenario unfortunately.

Argento says that they were friends and he had money problems and came to her requesting a sum of money, Bourdain sorted it out on the condition that he doesn't bother them again. She doesn't indicate he approached her before that. It's hard to conflate the Bourdain that presented himself as not giving a gently caress to the one in her story who was worried about negative publicity and it seems strange that she places it all on him.

She's trying to latch onto the good vibes from Bourdain's death. It's pretty clear.

I have no idea what Bourdain you're talking about because Bourdain's reputation for most of his career was of deeply caring about a lot of social, cultural and historical issues.
