Michael Imperioli left Queens at 17 with just $200, often sleeping on floors while trying to make it. A small role in Goodfellas helped open the door to The Sopranos, where he became Christopher, wrote episodes, and eventually won an Emmy. Later, he got sober and made a conscious choice to prioritize discipline over fame.
“Taking back London”
Meanwhile this was London today. Put your daddy into a care home and check yourself into an asylum for your schizophrenia, you mong
Can we just take a second to really take this in? How on earth has it come to this? Where a man can performatively ‘admit’ to sex with a child on an international platform but then couch it as some form of reflection or responsible accountability exercise - whilst deliberately leaning on our terrible, useless, outdated sexual offences act and age of consent?
This man was 30 years old, and at the height of his fame - when he made an active choice to have sex with a child. I would use much stronger language here but he’s deliberately leaning on our consent laws, that a 16 year old child can technically consent to sex - meaning that he could technically have ‘consensual sex’ with a school age child.
His admission and his disgusting performative ‘progressive’ ‘reflection’ that he is ‘exploitative’ makes my effin skin crawl. If this is not a predator in full swing, I do not know what is.
This man is admitting to sex with children and no one is going to do a thing about it. Absolutely atrocious. Our laws need urgently updating to ensure no adult can ever have technically consensual sex with a child. No adult should ever want that; and no child should ever be exposed to it.
End.
CATLAND

You see why respectability politics is bullshit, if they were hooded up it would be an issue yet them man can’t even be nerds in peace. Young black boys do/dress how you want. Your existence bothers racists so how you dress/present won’t change that
