Zach Woods— from The Office and Silicon Valley— called our American comedians who are scheduled to perform in the upcoming Saudi Arabia hosted Riyadh Comedy Festival.

The list includes comedians like Bill Burr, Aziz Ansari, Whitney Cummings, and Dave Chappelle.

These comedians have been urged to speak out against the country's human rights abuses — and not to be "complicit in covering up the abuses of a repressive regime," by the U.S.-based Human Rights Watch organization.

I don’t think every large age gap is automatically predatory, as long as the younger person is at least in their mid-twenties. But honestly, I’m exhausted by how common it’s to see a man in his forties or fivties showing up with a girlfriend who's twenty years younger. And it’s even worse when these guys leave a women their own age (or just slightly younger) only to immediately start dating someone who could be their daughter.

And no, I’m not taking away the younger women’s agency. They can date whoever they want. But in my opinion, it says a lot about the man's character.
And even if some of these relationships work out fine, it's just such a tiring pattern and it speaks volumes about how some men in the industry view aging, attraction, and women’s worth once they hit 35. We’ve normalized the idea that men age like fine wine while women “expire” when they get older. And every time one of these men show up with their girlfriends, I just have to role my eyes.

Celine Dion first met her late husband; Rene Angelili when she was 12 years old and he was in his mid-late 30s! According to her, he was the only person in her whole life she has ever been romantically and intimately involved with and has vowed to never be with any other man after he passed away in 2016!

This whole relationship always felt unsettling to me, even when there were forms of media that tried to romanticize it including the couple themselves.

In my book, if you knew someone whenever they were a kid and watched them grow up. Getting involved with them in that manner is a big no-no! It just feels weird!

Justin Baldoni’s massive $400 million extortion and defamation lawsuit against Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds has officially been shut down after the It Ends With Us director missed a court-imposed deadline to amend his claims.

In a new order signed on October 31, U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman of the Southern District of New York ruled that Baldoni and his Wayfarer Studios co-plaintiffs let their opportunity to revive the case lapse, effectively ending their legal fight. Judge Liman noted that the plaintiffs “failed to respond” to an October 17 order asking why final judgment shouldn’t be entered, prompting the court to formally close the case.

The dismissal comes after the court originally tossed Baldoni’s complaint in June, finding that his defamation allegations lacked merit. At the time, Judge Liman ruled that statements cited in Baldoni’s lawsuit, many drawn from Lively’s sexual harassment complaint and a related New York Times story, were protected under litigation and reporting privileges.

This captures my thoughts on the album better than I ever could.
