People were talking about in chat last night, but it's a pretty big deal.

Ren and Stimpy creator is outed as child predator. I really don't think the article needed to add the photo of the underage girl in the bathing suit that he took, but whatever. Anyway, it comes as yet another addition to a long line of artistic and creative individuals who are slowly being de-throned for being pieces of shit. Out of many of the examples of abusive and coercive behavior i've heard in the whole #metoo movement, this one strikes me as especially heinous and familiar. The aspect of the underage girls is bad enough, but his tendency to suddenly stop talking to girls who he deems too old or boring or whatever is especially troubling. I was never this huge Ren and Stimpy devotee, but a lot of people I know really dig it and I know this hits them pretty hard.
