Welcome to Thunderdome

My one dollar bet is "trust fund babies who don't need the money but like being tangentially related to famous people.". They can afford.to.just quit and virtue signal and not.lose anything.

Nobody who needs the money would quit over that.

That's a whole lot of assumptions.

Yep. But my dollar is.good.

Well, we have zero way of verifying.

Pictures surfacing of James Gunn attending a pedophilia themed party.

Even more stuff in that article too.

I don't think Gunn should have been fired for jokes, but who attends a pedophilia themed party?

In other news, why does "Kid Love Productions" produce Bill Maher shows? Check IMDB, it's true. I only point this out because I see other people on Twitter pointing it out.

People a little detached from reality.

The name changed 10 years ago. But no explanation of the name that I could find. Maybe it was Kid Rock's cousin? At any rate, I'm not going to jump on the pedo train there without more cars.

That's fair, but it's hard to ignore the smoke.

This all reminds me of a moment from Preacher (the books). Jesse Custer, while looking for God, finds a sex cult of rich and powerful people.They had, literally, fucked their way through every species on Earth because it's the only way they could get off. Getting laid because of their fame, power, and wealth was too easy and didn't excite them.

Given the lack of morals in Hollywood (pedo parties, 1000 Americans killed in the Middle East parties, etc.), applying this logic to all the smoke around pedo stories out of Hollywood isn't exactly a stretch.

Altered Carbon has a similar story line.

I found that story glorious.

In a turn that rivals Academy Award Winning Kevin Spacey's "I've been accused of these things, oh by the way... I'm gay", Asia Argento says, "I really wanted to fight these false accusations, but my beloved dead boyfriend payed him off instead."

Well, the texts / pics sure show it was pretty consensual, rather than assault, aside from age of consent laws.

Too bad for her that's a pretty big "but".

Think we're headed toward a new Puritanism?

I truly think we're headed towards this:

Or, maybe, a world where women are less harassed.

We are, and that's a win. The problem is we all know the scales won't stop at equality. They never do...

Wow you really care about the issue way more than me. Nice.
