Griffin Newman Apologizes for Acting in Woody Allen Film, Donates Salary to Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network

 

Leave twitter... Then what next? Leave Instagram, Leave every other social network?

 

for what it's worth I'm eight thousand percent in favor of this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

I’m looking for this article a man wrote about the ways toxic masculinity is communicated to men as an ideal throughout their lives. It may have been addressed to his sons or something or just boys in general. I have no clue how to start looking for it but figured I’d post here in case anyone remembers it. I think it was published like 2 years ago.

 

So I just heard about the "women facing defamation case for speaking up" Crowd Justice thing. Anyone care to fill me in on who this is about?

 

I hope he feels like shit for the rest of his life.

 

yeah Quentin's gross in general so not surprised

 

Me either tbh.

 

Ugh, as a huge QT fan I had a feeling he had to have known and his delayed response hinted at that.

 

I pretty much expect that all of the people who have been in the business a longtime know he's shady as fuck and did nothing. It's infuriating which I know you know, I just needed to say it again.

 

I'm as impressed that this exists as I am upset that it's needed

 

Only problem with this is when the more threatening type of dudes call the number right after you give it to them. I once bailed from a gas station without getting gas I badly needed because it was 6 AM, nobody was around and the guy basically said if the call didn't go to my cell phone I should be worried about my physical safety - so I bailed when he started to dial and walk away.

 

And now that this is so public, they're going to know that's not your number heh... They could just write down the number and be like "I know that's not your number"
IDK. Not convinced ;(

Really good article.

Opinion | Brave Enough to Be Angry

 

The third paragraph from the bottom especially resonates with me.

Only recently have I realized that anger is a valid emotion/response and not "irrational/illogical/hysterical."
