Legendary Hollywood scriptwriter Robert Towne was BOTD in 1934 & died in 2024 at 89. He wrote & directed the hot lesbian fetish movie "Personal Best" (1982) & allegedly had affairs with both its co-stars, Mariel Hemingway & Patrice Donnelly, ending his marriage. That would do it!

No chivalry needed. Demeaning a PERSON is inappropriate, & anyone of any gender can tell him so to his face. I think you are trying to be noble, but men defending women in this way is part of the same worldview that sees us as fragile & you as stronger in the first place, & no thanks to that

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

Today marks the 80th anniversary of the start of the Nuremberg Trials. In 2018, I spent an afternoon with Ben Ferencz who, at the age of 99, was the last living prosecutor of the Nazis. Here’s what he had to say in “Fahrenheit 11/9” about the dark turn the world was taking.

I wish this didn't feel like a typical feature of rape culture: denying the capacity of women and girls to bear witness, refusing to listen to them, erasing their voices.....
40 minors gave sworn testimonies that they’d been raped & trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein.

Thank you for publishing my latest @medpagetoday.com

Playing semantics over what constitutes a “child” is a gross disservice to survivors of child sexual abuse. Pedophilia isn’t a spectrum, please don’t justify it. #medsky #epstein

I really hate it when they do this.
It makes my feel crazy that even the justices who i like to think are decent and good people, rarely step in to stop an execution and that means, to me, that they are not-in fact- decent and good people at all.
