The owners of the comedy cellar sent a very loud, very clear message to every woman, be they performer or audience member, that they are willing to look the other way on sexual assault so long as you can get a laugh and make us a buck.

Timby posted:There's a fantastic book about Rockstar and the history of GTA. It's a bit outdated, as it came out in 2012, but it's called Jacked and it's by David Kushner. Excellent read. The BBC tv-movie based on this with Daniel Radcliffe as Sam Houser & Bill Paxton as Jack Thompson is a real mess which is such a shame when u have Daniel Radcliffe as Sam Houser & Bill Paxton as Jack Thompson

Ironically, progressive and even social justice oriented communities have a biiiig tendency to succumb to the Geek Social Fallacies, with many having already reached the inevitable endgame where the predators and abusers are immovable fixtures.

Thanks for that term, I hadn't read about Geek Social Fallacies before. There's a lot of progressive voices I think - especially in entertainment - who haven't realised that they're carrying massive blindspots regarding race and gender especially and should just shut up and let better able people pick up the torch. That whole Michael Ian Black shitshow on twitter is one example. Navigating the fragility around not having a relevant opinion on an issue despite having a massive platform is going to be super important for a lot of celebrities.

I guess a history of assaulting fifteen (plus?) different men and boys across a span of decades was a “whoopsie,” and Spacey should be given the opportunity to put the trauma he had suffered in the allegations coming to light behind him, and move on with his life. It’s whats fair. Robin Wright just handially killed whatever modicum of interest I might have had in “her” season of House Of Cards.

There's like a vaguely fair point about it being hosed up that you don't get to have a private life if you're a succesful actor, but her overall message seems to be "couldn't people have just kept quiet "

There is so much introspective Tumblr-babbling in that post that it really does need a better summary.quote:the months following this were mostly composed of me attempting to be a friend while constantly thinking i was doing something wrong, and john generally not responding unless he was having a vulnerable moment. finally, i allowed myself to realize that he was using me. quote:and then, because it was relevant, he asked me my pronouns. i said, “you little poo poo, i told you my pronouns when i met you and you went off on a whole spiel about how i shouldn’t label myself.” he stuttered for a second, then said, “you’re right, you’re absolutely right.” i thanked him because there was something irrationally satisfying about john telling me i was right, about anything. Like, I'm not dissecting this entire thing, but I can just as easily read this as some fan trying to suck up to a singer (?) they like for years who probably should have blocked them ages ago. loving say why he's supposed to be a monster that isn't just screenshots of buddy asking this guy for weed hookups and stuff that sounds like the teen girl dramatics I went through with all my friends in early high school.

Literally one of those 'damning receipts' is that person trying to get John to get them weed and when he replies casually but doesn't immediately give them what they want they try to gaslight him.

Awesome that it fell to Olivia Munn to have to "inform" Fox about this. Something tells me they knew about it before and only made a move because Munn talking about it in the press would've been a bad look.

Guy's undeniably a creep, Shane Black's defense of him is gross and problematic, and to put him in any kind of sexually charged scene with a woman who has come out with her own story of sexual assault is incredibly lovely. But: guy did time for his crime, it wasn't buried and it wasn't directly related to his acting work. Should he not get to work again because he's a sex offender?

davidspackage posted:Guy's undeniably a creep, Shane Black's defense of him is gross and problematic, and to put him in any kind of sexually charged scene with a woman who has come out with her own story of sexual assault is incredibly lovely. Whether he works again is a decision every potential employer has to make their own decision about. So to make some grand pronouncement about whether he "ever gets to work again" is meaningless, he'll work again or not based on how his future employers feel about the fact that he tried to have sex with a child. So if you're so interested in finding out whether a sex offender will get to work again, why don't you answer the question for yourself. Would you want to hire him?

I don't even think it's a matter of whether or not is someone is ever able to work again, Pep Boys is hiring after all. It's more like, why would you cast your friend who got busted for feeling up a high schooler as a tree-jumper for a gag in your movie?

Exactly, when I say "future employers", there is no presumption that working in show business is some sort of entitlement. Get a job if you can, doesn't mean Hollywood is required to keep your career afloat just because you want to be an actor. Not that this guy was exactly lighting the world on fire with his acting jobs anyway.

Fox and Wilder put out a statement about it. Fox claims that they didn’t know due to laws that impede background checks on actors (there actually aren’t any such laws) and Wilder says the girl was a problemed relative he reached out to offer help and ended up falling for her. He says nothing physical happened but the girl says it definitely did.
