Such madness. We are living an overly-broad satirical sketch that is passing for real life!

And a Yankee! Hakeem Jeffries is Brooklyn born and bred and if there's one thing they can spot...it's a hustle. Boy, this GOP tax reform has no takers, least of all among its intended targets. Are we looking at another flop bill?

No wonder Sessions and Trump Inc. are on the trot to find something to go after HRC for. Trump campaign has all this stuff to hide and shift focus from.

I just posted an article about the prevalence of sexual harassment in Congress. One would think that in the halls where laws are passed (or at least they used to be) would be a place where there are safeguards in place to prevent people's personal space and rights being violated but nope! Hollywood's (and the entertainment industry) main problem is that it is made up of informal networks (meetings do really take place at hotels-lobbies, most times though) where breaches of etiquette happen daily (as an intern fresh out of school, I was once sent to the apartment of a male actor to drop off a script) but I'm still wrapping my head around lack of regard for the rule of law in government. I mean, it's government that passed sexual harassment laws in the first place, shouldn't they be abiding by it?

Everyone is talking about Hollywood right now but this is so cringeworthy, it sent a shiver up my spine just reading the first few paragraphs. House and Senate Are ‘Among the Worst’ for Harassment, Representative Says

The focus now seems to be on Hollywood but there are a plethora of stories now coming out of Congress and don't forget the Gamergate scandal that came out of Silicon Valley (which continues to have problems with diversity and sexual harassment). It's everywhere.

If/when he gets booted out, I guess he wants to leave a legacy of inequality that will be difficult to erase.

As a Black woman, to me, this stated the very obvious. Still, I'm glad this is something that is being amplified. Perhaps more people will pay attention but I'm dubious. I've never been able to figure out why Chris Brown and R. Kelly still even have careers? Although I have my theories on why the likes of these two have ascended in the R&B/Pop world and very little of it has to do with their actual music.

Thanks for sending @Hunk Chandler Massey. He looks like he's in his element. That facial hair needs help though.

I remember seeing a clip of him with his daughter on Shark Tank a few years ago. Seems like he likes to invent/patent things.

Really? What for?

As an aside, I continue to wonder whether those allegations against Assange might resurface in the wake of the unmasking of sexual predators era that we are living in. Speaking of allegations, I think this one has been floating around for months but here this article details the correspndence between Dummy Jr. and Wikileaks. Has anyone read this article?

Don't remind me. I remember one episode where they had Jack doing a very cheesy rendition of an Elvis-like impersonation. It had no place in there. I was glad when they stopped doing it.

Michael Park was doing theater, even Broadway before he landed on As The World Turns. (see: Smokey Joe's Cafe).

If this Keurig boycott goes the way of the other alt-right/gop boycotts, a lot of other people are going to be purchasing Keurigs this holiday season!

Vlad is mad! Not surprising, given, after all that maneuvering to help a useful idiot ascend to the presidency, only to discover that the useful part wouldn't come to pass. I said this a few months ago, and I still think it may happen down the road. As Vlad loses all patience, we may begin to see leaks coming from the Kremlin, that are simultaneously untraceable to the Kremlin. I feel like this has already begun to happen via that lawyer Veselnitskaya dropping little bits of intel in the past week and a half, or so with her remarks about Dummy Jr wanting a quid pro quo, dangling the possibility that a U.S. law might be changed to suit the Kremlin, in exchange for dirt on HRC.

Seems like Chung kept his head, self-belief and focus. I'm happy for him too. The finals was basically the only match I saw out of the entire tournament. The NextGenATP even didn't get much chatter online overall. It seemed like Coric threw in the towel once he lost that semifinal but I had heard that Shapovalov had injured himself. I'm not sure whether that is true or not though. Sloane's gonna Sloane. I didn't see any of today's Fed Cup rubbers but I saw some pictures of Sloane with a wrapped thigh or knee. I know that lots of other players have won matches, even tournaments while their thighs or arms were wrapped, so I'm getting the same feeling about Sloane that I had when she was in Asia-- that basically she was ready to shut down her season after the the U.S. Open.

And lest we forget that it is not just Hollywood, a reminder. They Quietly Left the Church, but the Sexual Abuse Continued

LMAO

Corey Haim's Mother Names the Man She Alleges Sexually Abused Her Son

So bad for so many reasons! Since Takei is very connected on social media I now wonder what statement he will tweet in response. While I realize he has a large fanbase, I was never gaga over him but I am very disappointed, especially since he cast himself as a voice for so many people. Honestly, when I saw his name trending, I thought it could be one of two things. You can probably guess the first but the world we live in today, my second immediate thought was sexual harassment. Ugh.
