“She Said” shows how some figures who have presented themselves as allies of victims have profited from financial settlements that silence them.

The attorney Gloria Allred is one of the most vocal crusaders against sexual harassment and assault. Privately, her firm helped negotiate a settlement that muffled one of Mr. Weinstein’s victims in 2004, taking a 40 percent cut. (The firm has also worked on settlements that silenced victims of Larry Nassar and Bill O’Reilly.) In an interview for “She Said,” Allred defends her use of confidential settlements, arguing that clients are not forced to sign them and often prefer them for reasons of privacy.

Allred’s daughter, the lawyer Lisa Bloom, a prominent victims’ rights attorney, was working behind the scenes with Mr. Weinstein — at a rate of $895 an hour — to quash the journalists’ investigation and thwart his accusers. In a confidential memo to Mr. Weinstein that Ms. Bloom wrote in December 2016, which is reproduced in “She Said,” she offered to help him damage the reputation of one of his accusers, Rose McGowan, and portrayed her background as a victims’s rights advocate as an asset.

Tee hee! "My fee fees are hurt, so I'll get a lawyer capable of national attention! Wahhh! My fee-feehs are hurty again! This time my fee-fees about fees! People should represent me for FREE for my vag hurts!"

Great article on the Epoch Times.
I think this is my new favorite news site! Pretty balanced coverage with a slant towards traditional values.

Thanks @CornPoptheOriginalGangster That's a bible verse I don't remember, though I did read the whole book at one time.

@Booger, that pretty much sums up what took me a long-ass post (here: https://patrick.net/post/1327741/?c=1620999) to describe. Good job!

BTW the "cuck shed" is when you are divorced and you paid for the house and she gets to live in it with her new BF.

"A Celebration of Vulva Diversity"

Anything with the word "diversity" in it is an automatic win.

I only like chicks who want to fuck, cook a good meal and know that family is the most important thing in life. Liberal urban white chicks need not apply.

I got scoped once as a teenager. Some men were messing with the kid and bet me I couldn’t shoot this white rock way up this mountain with a .300 Winchester. I hit it, but I was sporting a nice circular shallow cut for a couple weeks.
Not nice.

Good one from that Twitter account:

Yes. it only 78% as full as the male glass.

If women worked for less than men did and were equally productive in engineering, there would be all women engineering companies and there aren't.

If you want - I can explain the math of the problem if you like. Seriously. I can show you, mathematically, that a diverse group of engineers will almost always make the best team.

Left: There is no such thing as girl brain, all brains are same.
Left (Same people): A boy can be born with "girl" brain.

Both cannot be true at the same time. Just pointing out the crazy train.

Let's get it over with. Just like 4 chan, AS A JOKE, promoted the idea that the "OK hang gesture" is a "WHITE POWER SYMBOL", let's promote wearing this jacked as a way to show your solidarity with tolerance, other cultures, multiple genders, and non traditional sexualities:

We agree. My statement that the "glass was 78% full" was a ding at that common propaganda phrase. "Pay gap" is crap, because like you said, businesses would hire women over men in every case if women did the same work for about 3/4 the price.

And in reality male and female brains are physically different in shape, and females brains are slightly larger. My guess is that larger lobe is for storing (with total recall) any bad thing a male ever said.

I'm curious about the 60% control over the US wealth. Does that include 50% of their husbands assets for womym married (esp. to high asset/net worth men)? I mean I belive most of these points are accurate, but not sure if women control more money than men unless you include potential divorce settlements (which is legit to include).

I'm an engineer work in this once utopia, now craphole, of Silicon Valley and once was talking to a former friend about "the wage gap". He's an engineer too and he TRULY believed in the wage gap, so I asked him the same exact question about why there aren't all female corporations here, because we DAMNED well know somebody would do it.

He called me a sexist for pointing this out, I knew I had lost him, and a few months later, I just terminated the friendship. He's gay, which is no problem, but his boyfriend is the most superficial liberal asshole I've ever met. I figured it's pointless to try to save him.

His boyfriend was incensed that I dared to ask "just exactly what was so great about Obama?" - and the only thing he cares about is gay marriage - even though he's not married, he doesn't mind a bit that Obama caused the refugee crisis in Europe, brought back slavery to Libya, or almost destroyed Syria. I'd known the asshole for 10 years and put up with almost all his gross ignorance and blatant selfishness. It was at that point, I decided I didn't need to deal with this shit.

I'll tell you, not hanging around crazy liberals anymore, just giving up on them, I'm less angry in a conversation, I'm more open to being wrong, I'm less insulting, I sleep better, I work better - best decision I ever made to stop dealing with them. I don't put up with crazy conservatives either, who tell me that although I'm an atheist now, I'll come to my senses some day, and stop worshiping Satan..

This craphole was cool when the internet was still for rebels, free speech and music sharing and we used to run mp3 servers on the back of lab machines while doing our job of innovating. I expect this to last a few more years then SV will falter, likely slowly though. Because one thing you cannot underestimate is the innovation factor BECAUSE the area is so fucked up and dysfunctional. Uber and AirBnB would have never been born if it weren't for the cab/taxi mafia, shitty (literally) public transportation and the hotel mafia charging $500 for a shithole room per night.

We'll get back to it. Don't forget what the internet really is - it's a series of tubes invented by Al Gore :)

HTTP is just one service. What we were doing in the back of the lab on a pretty hefty computer back in the 1990's - we can do sitting on the kitchen table, on a raspberry PI 3, consuming all of 10 watts. The whole of Google would back in 2000 would probably fit on my desktop next to me. The next stage is decentralization. We don't need any fucking Facebook or Twitter or Youtube.

The whole of the internet was designed specifically to be decentralized. That's the next step but I think that's the final step. Dumbfucks trying to control this, censor it, dictate terms just don't know who the fuck they are dealing with. They don't even understand the technology, it's limitations, or the potential.

Planning to dethrone Facebook and Google using blockchain are you?
Good luck!
