The first time I made THAT observation was when I was still in high school and noticed how cliquish the white girls were in comparison to everyone else. Now, the Black girls (and other girls) kept to themselves as well -- and I'm not saying they were incapable of talking smack behind each other's backs. But the TRUE "mean girls," the ones who set out to make the other groups' lives miserable, were all white.

What were the other parts? (If you don't mind my asking? I'm just being curious.)

It wouldn't surprise me to know that HW was challenging his termination. He doesn't strike me as the type to leave quietly, if you know what I mean. (Which is why I KNOW there'll be a book and "exclusive, one-on-one interview" down the road. Because, if he's going down? He's gonna take a whole bunch of people with him. Count on it.) But I hope his efforts to reverse his firing prove fruitless, and that he's forced to pay through his pug-ass nose. He deserves nothing less. Apparently so, lol. But seriously. People who knew about HW's predilections but said nothing out of fears of legal reprimands never realized that NDAs are non-binding if they're being used to hide unlawful acts. IOW, Harvey, you could make me sign all the NDAs you want, but if I'm inclined to blab about all the times you sexually harassed and molested women without their consent, I'm blabbing. Oh, they're coming, lol. Harvey, I feel, is just the tip of this proverbial iceberg. I mean, we've already seen collateral damage in the form of the dude (whose name escapes me) who was running Amazon Studios. He was shown the door after a producer on "The Man in the High Castle" came forward with her story about how he harassed her at Comic-Con. I think there are more on the way.

Agreed. The election was an eye-opener, not just for WOC (who realized that white women will NEVER have their backs), but for progressively minded white women as well. (As I heard at least one commentator say, yes, white women DO hate each other, and the election proved it.)

In a way, I feel especially sorry for the actors of color who have been raped and/or harassed by predators like HW. It's tragic for ALL the victims, regardless of ethnicity or skin color. But when you remember how Black men and women, in particular, have been viewed in times past by White men.... If the employees "have nothing to hide" by releasing this, then why is it anonymous? (And don't give me the same old jive about "non-disclosure agreements." Those are way past being null-and-void.) Women throughout the industry have spoken publicly about their encounters with him and with others -- and they have done so, I might add, at great risk to their careers and reputations. Surely, Kevin in Accounting could've remembered where he had kept his balls and then signed his name at the bottom of the statement.

If I heard it once from a white woman during the campaign, I heard it one hundred times: "I'm not going to vote for Hillary JUST because she's a woman." Okay. Well, then, how about voting for Hillary (or Jill, or Gary) because Trump has a record of being sexist and misogynistic? That would be a deal breaker for most enlightened women out there, right? The sad fact is that the feminist movement of the late '60's and early '70's had absolutely nothing to do with WOC; and that's primarily because (to put it simply) WOC had to go out and work, because they had no choice. And they had to put up with menial jobs, shitty pay and gross mistreatment by their male, white employers, because no one was out there for marching for THEM the way they were for white women. Ironically, though, I think most African-American women hold more traditional values than even most white women. Because they were largely raised by Judeo-Christian values, they truly believe, for example, that the husband IS the head of the household; that marriage IS defined by one man and one woman; that a woman is not to serve as the head of the church; that things like premarital sex and abortion are to be avoided, etc.

Seriously, I am a HUGE fan of "Annie Hall," but even I felt Woody Allen needed to retain his seat through this.

That sense of fatigue, for lack of a better word, might be the only thing that keeps him from enjoying a second term, if we get to that point. Not a sense that he has failed to live up to his promises, or that his agenda (if you can call it that) has resulted in massive losses all around, but just the feeling that Americans, in general, have had it with the non-stop drama and want him to go away. As I've said on other occasions, after what we have gone through, I won't look anytime soon for another candidate who wants to come in from the outside and upend the status quo. Because, I, for one, see now why having outsiders run things isn't always what's best for the country.

Carrie Fisher was like Princess Leia: neither took any s**t from anyone.

Bubbles would do anything to purge himself of his shame over his sexuality. I'm with Julia. I'm resigning myself (reluctantly, of course) to the possibility that Trump will be there 'til 2024. Of course, I would LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE for God to prove me wrong here.

Regarding how Christopher Holder looks today: 1) it ain't 1982 anymore; and 2) a new haircut and the proper makeup and lighting could do wonders. (Just ask Melody Thomas Scott.) Honestly, I wouldn't expect Holder to look EXACTLY as he did, what, over thirty years ago? I'd just want him to be able to act the hell out of a potentially interesting storyline that connects with a part of Y&R's history.

He went to the WHERE in front of her??? God, I hope it wasn't number two.

Watching the stuff with Kevin and Nikki just has wishing me once more that we could see Christopher Holder return as Kevin and learn he, and not Victor, is Victoria's biological father. That, and not Ashley's being exposed as Brent Davis' kid, should be what's playing out right now.

Yep. I feel like most of the other celebs who are speaking out for the victims and against Harvey are doing so only because they have long relished the opportunity to "get" him but have been afraid of how that might affect their careers.

The media probably isn't talking about the Somalian terrorist attack or the soldiers killed in Niger, because they're much too distracted by the endless (and needless) debate about whether we should stand for the National Anthem and pledge of allegiance.

ICAM, Cat. No one who was complicit in this deserves "golden parachutes." They, along with Harvey, deserve nothing less than criminal prosecution. Moreover, whatever monies they all have should be paid to their victims, or at the very least, donated to non-profit organizations that promote awareness of children's and women's issues. I'm sure others will disagree, but it's just how I feel at the moment. In theory, Emma Thompson's suggestion that we need more women in positions of power within the film industry sounds wise. However, who's to say that some women haven't or wouldn't abuse THEIR power by sexually harassing men or even other women? I just think we need to stop keeping this [!@#$%^&*] under the rug whenever it happens. As the saying goes, "If you see something, say something;" and the rest of us need to rewire our brains so that we don't automatically blame the victims, but instead support them and see to it that the proper authorities prosecute the offenders to the fullest extent of the laws.

Americans LOVE a good redemption story, so I don't know if it's safe to say just yet whether Harvey's reputation or career is kaput. If he shows enough contrition, then he'll back in Hollywood. Or he'll just enter politics.

It just unnerves the hell out of me to read the extent of Harvey Weinstein's damage on so many women. I mean, this [!@#$%^&*] is the reason why actors such as Marilyn Monroe and Judy Garland ended up as drugged-up emotional and physical wrecks.

To me, James Kiberd looks the same, only older. He's also lost some weight, which is fantastic. I just wish he'd do something about his thinning hair.

Frankly, if anything about TKAM were to make them uncomfortable, it would be the suggestion that even an African-American who has been accused of raping a white woman is innocent until proven guilty.

And I hope they follow through with their threats. Trump is sabotaging the ACA for one reason and one reason only: to make "that uppity n****r" Obama look like a total failure as president. He couldn't get Congress to pass a repeal/replace bill with his Dollar Tree mafioso tactics, so he's just gonna cut off the life support to Obamacare instead. What a jackhole.

Frankly, I don't want to hear the recordings, because I'm afraid they'll make me want to punch myself or another guy in the nuts.

Translation: "I hafta check in with my attorney and manager first."

Probably because his ideas for the DALLAS revival were way better than hers. (I still love his idea -- at least, I think it was his idea -- to have had John Ross be the 'Bobby' and Christopher the 'J.R.', rather than the other way around.)
