I was surprised but shouldn't have been. I went and told my wife, who loves celebrity gossip, and she told me it's been speculated that Sheen did that for a while. I'm apparently oblivious.

Yeah, that rumour has been floating around for a long time.

NBC News reporting that Spacey was groping the gently caress out of 18 year old men last year.

quote:

A former Boston news anchor says her teenage son was allegedly sexually assaulted by Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey last summer.

Heather Unruh, a former anchor at television station WCVB, told reporters Wednesday that Spacey bought her "starstruck" then-18-year-old son "drink after drink after drink" at a crowded restaurant in Nantucket, Massachusetts, in July 2016, and then "stuck his hand inside my son's pants and grabbed his genitals."

When the actor went to the restroom, a "concerned woman" who had apparently witnessed the alleged groping came to Unruh's son's side and "told him to run," Unruh said. He "ran as fast as he could," ending up at his grandmother's house, where he told family members.

Despite Corey Haim being dead there's a pretty clear trail of breadcrumbs where he always hinted that Charlie Sheen was the one who took advantage of him. I'm guessing now we're in the culture of everyone taking this allegations super seriously and it starting to seem like all these accusations are true it's the right time to disclose it and have the public tend to accept it.

The US is finally starting to see what happened in the UK about 5 years ago with Operation Yewtree After Jimmy Saville died and it finally came out he was a massive pedophile rapist all of a sudden the accusations starting coming out of the woodwork and people began speaking up about other people in positions of huge influence and power committing frequent sexual abuse on minors and this time people took it seriously and started massive investigations into it.

Honestly, it's pretty amazing that this sudden surge in people coming forward is due to Anthony Rapp being willing to come forward about a decades old incident and now we're hearing about several of the cast and crew of House of Cards having dealt with Spacey's abuse for years.

Buzzfeed has like 20 different divisions. Trust me, I know because recently I've been hiding most of the pages my friends share poo poo from on Facebook because I want my news feed to be less cluttered and I've hidden Buzzfeed News, Buzzfeed Entertainment, Buzzfeed Travel, Buzzfeed LGBT, etc.

I don't need to see the same stories get reported from a million different sources or some stupid dream vacations for rich people that I'll never be able to afford.

CDAN did a blind (with reveal!) about Mack's involvement with the dude while Smallville was still running and at the time it was like "Oh no, this poor naive girl got caught up in some Hollywood charlatan's scheme." (I think Kristen Kreuk was involved as well.)

Then a month or two ago the "genital branding" stuff started getting traction in mainstream blogs like Jezebel and it went from "Oh no" to "Oh poo poo :stare:"

Same thing that's been happening for decades, I think. Some people are just fed the gently caress up with it and are willing to talk.

Thing is, I still think we're only hearing about a tenth of the poo poo that goes down in that town. At best.

It's also not just in hollywood. It's rich people everywhere. Like, it's getting found out in Hollywood because Hollywood is a place where the spotlight is also on victims.

The people who are coming out as victims in Hollywood are people who had semi successful careers and have imdb pages and poo poo. There are plenty of sex trafficking rings where the victims are just completely hidden from the public eye.

I hadn’t heard about those rumors before, and LOL DAILY MAIL LOL, but if that turns out to be true, then jeez. Probably one of the last names anybody would expect to be caught up in heinous poo poo like that.

This whole disgusting Hollywood jenga tower of sex fiends falling down in slow motion is sure something to behold, and yeah, it’s probably even worse on Wall Street.
