We’ve reached the "approached" phase of accusations. Sorry, I still believe men are allowed to flirt.<br /><br />Also, I think we should all be very nervous that partisans on all sides have twisted the word "denial" into a synonym for "confession." That's pretty much the definition of a witch hunt. <br /><br />They're gonna kill a good thing by going too far. Everyone involved in the landslide of Hollywood accusations, I mean. Smart people in media understand this, so I can't just assume it's unintentional.tryanmaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881154741574720094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6251675227852122352.post-21238845905525383012017-11-13T09:48:21.978-05:002017-11-13T09:48:21.978-05:00Andrew, all thoughts I've mused myself about t...Andrew, all thoughts I've mused myself about the diversity conundrum. All I can say is that the consensus seems to be drifting away from "we're all the same" and toward "diversity now!" which is terrible. I spoke with my wife at length about this over the weekend, how when we were children, we were raised on a mantra of "difference is only skin deep." This diversity stuff feels like an attack on the very foundations of belief. tryanmaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881154741574720094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6251675227852122352.post-55383284477842430722017-11-11T15:33:42.928-05:002017-11-11T15:33:42.928-05:00Ok.

I have to mention this because it's so pathetic.<br /><br />With all the Hollywood stuff going on, someone started a post at Redit asking people to post things celebrities have done that they think show that the celebrity is nice. The list is less than inspiring (<a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5073043/Twitter-users-share-stories-celebrities-nice.html" rel="nofollow">LINK</a>).<br /><br />Examples: Eva Longoria remembered the name of an intern and asked her/him/it how things were going.<br /><br />Steve Buscemi gives out Halloween candy.<br /><br />Gloria Estefan wrote to a fan.<br /><br />Rapper Common gave a thank you speech to the extras.<br /><br />Antonio Bandares once spoke to a fan.<br /><br />Talk about a low bar. Now, there were some better things (e.g. Vigo Mortenson bought someone a horse and Keanu Reeves takes pay cuts to make sure there are enough staff), but to see these things as special and worth calling out is ridiculous. These are the things the rest of us do every day of our lives unless we're assholes.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6251675227852122352.post-60298932491832509712017-11-11T14:59:14.023-05:002017-11-11T14:59:14.023-05:00So this Hollywood thing is increasingly turning in...So this Hollywood thing is increasingly turning into a gay predator story as the chickies struggle to name more than a couple Hollywood predators despite claims it's widespread... if you call tens guys widespread.<br /><br />Anyways, today's additions are:<br /><br />Richard Dreyfuss (denies)<br />Steven Segal<br />FIFA President Sepp Blatter (denies)<br />George Takai (gay) (denies)<br />Music/TV Mogul Benny Medina (gay)<br /><br />And of course, more Kevin Spacey victims. Apparently, Spacey attempted to molest every male actor in Hollywood and London and failed.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.com
