It's in his self-interest at this point though, isn't it? And he's not committing suicide or — say — resigning from a Senate seat like Al Franken. He has the power to come back when it suits his interests. This is his best hope to get people to buy his book, better at this point than going around telling people buy my book (with some whining about how he's apologized). It's better for him to lie low. Yes, there's something horribly beta about it. Moby is mopey. But I'm guessing that fits his overall self-presentation, so it just might work.
The book is called "Then It Fell Apart." It's all so poetic.

Gives a whole new meaning to "Thar She Blows"
There actually is a whole wide world outside the bubbles of social medial. Or put another way, if a mob eviscerates you on twitter or Facebook and you don't read it, did it hurt?
If he had more backbone, he'd be less Moby.
Who wore “Goodbye” better — Moby or Mueller?
I need SO much popcorn these days.
Moby's going to take this time off to reflect, and then have gender reassignment surgery to become a man.
""[T]here's something horribly beta about it." I thought Althouse was against gendered insults. Althouse's reaction, though, does evidence how women react to men who present vulnerability."
There are beta females too. Look it up.
This seems to confirm Steve Sailer's observation that we are ruled by actresses.

Of course this fits his self-presentation. He'll lie low. Do some public Self-Flagellation, then reappear as a repentant and better version of a Beta male than ever. This is the most self-flagellating generation ever. Makes Black Death era monks seem like pikers.
Interesting that you should bring up Al Franken, because there is an article in the St Paul MN newspaper this morning: "The Al Franken question: Who gets a second chance, and how do you earn it?"
I wouldn't be surprised to see him running for political office again, and would not be surprised to see him running for U.S. Representative for Minnesota's 5th congressional district now held by Ilhan Abdullahi Omar the Somali woman.

“It's in his self-interest at this point though, isn't it?”
No, it’s never in your self-interest to grovel to the gobshites. He could sell far more books by going large, claiming he used to make Portman dress like a nurse and blow him in the back of taxis. She wouldn’t reallycare, he’d get to keep his self-respect, and they’d both be A-listers for a little while. Hell, they’d probably ask him to develop a Netflix series or something.
In these Social Media times we just can’t trust that people do what they do out of honesty and honor. We must view every action through a cynical lens. Sad.
P.S. I possess a lot of Moby’s music, which I like very much. Atmospheric and soothing.
Years and years ago, I took my high school-aged daughter to a Moby concert. I liked it much better than I thought I would. He ended the show with a Ramones song, either Cretin Hop or Blitzkrieg Bop, I don't recall which. That was the best part.
"Sorry the gun I pointed at you went off when I pulled the trigger. I'll put it away for a while"
In high school, they are called Queen Bee. I don't know what they're called after that. Suburban Housewife, maybe.
Managers from hell.
He should seek out comment sections that are anti-Moby and impersonate someone who is anti-Moby, writing things like what Moby did is not so bad and we should really all just forgive him so Moby can have his life back.
He either talked to a lawyer or got a lawyer letter from someone (maybe a couple).
Just another in the long list of examples, that the loopy left has no desire to accommodate, accept, forgive, get along. They only want to destroy. There can be no apology ot or forgiveness from these thought police, that is sufficient.
I’m still held captive by the image he induced in me, with the publication of his pasty-white-chested nipple photo, of her milk fed pert teen titties put into the service of his 30-something sweaty rocker sex. Let’s not lose sight of the fact that was the purpose of the exercise...and it still is. And, as Laslo pointed out, he had her when she was still hot.
Is it rape if you can induce the image in anonymous third-parties of beta bad boy penetration many years after the event? Over and over?

Moby is a gamma. So of course he wimped out, when fighting a fellow SJW.
Fuck You Portman! has a nicer ring to it, frankly.
He's Pajama Boy with musical talent.
This whole thing is sort of weirldy fascinating when you think of the apologizing as a tool or strategy. It's difficult to hate a person who shows a great deal of contrition and self deprication. But it can be difficult to respect someone who is overly apologetic too. Trump hardly ever apologizes. Mostly because he knows full well it wouldn't do him any good, only harm.
"I wouldn't be surprised to see him running for political office again, and would not be surprised to see him running for U.S. Representative for Minnesota's 5th congressional district now held by Ilhan Abdullahi Omar the Somali woman."
Great point. I think you're right. Of course, electing a bad NY Comedian to replace a Somali women could only happen in Sweden or Minnesota.
Don’t care.
Making Natalie Portman upset over a decades-ago event -- that isn't even a fucking misdemeanor -- has caused enough of a righteous social-media firestorm to reach this point?
It seems like the safest way to navigate now is to adopt the mental construct of a sociopath:
I don't care what you think.
I don't care what you feel.
Whether you live or die does not matter to me, unless you make me prefer the latter.
I could do horrible things to you and not lose any sleep.
I could do horrible things to people and things you love and not lose any sleep. Indeed, I might masturbate just thinking about it.
I see no reason not to skull-fuck you at a time of my convenience.
Perhaps Moby could set this to music.
I am Laslo.
It's in his self-interest at this point though, isn't it?
Sincerity and self-interest can coexist.
AND THEN IT ALL FELL APART!!!
There are Beta Females. Look it up."
Snort. I did, and the first 3 hits sound like this one:
"Betas have less of a need for control, and they may have less interest in a leadership position than an Alpha would. In a group of women, the Alpha is the one who exerts power and influence through her ability to take charge of the conversation, while the Beta will tend to listen and support. In the extremes of both, an Alpha may be too confrontational; a Beta may be too passive. Fortunately, people are malleable, as you will see, and you can modify some of your behavior for a better balance.
Can you be an Alpha if you’re not a big earner or powerful out in the working world? Of course! Lily, a physician and a mother of two, works between fifteen and twenty hours a week to her husband’s seventy-hours-plus. She puts it this way: “I’m an Alpha in disguise. I don’t wear my Alpha on my sleeve.”
Get back to me when you're serious
Whether intentional or not, this is a great career move. We're all talking about Moby!
Eminem was right.
I don't understand how anyone in the whole world could possibly be interested in this even a tiny bit, even one freedom's molecule worth.
I feel sorry for this guy, a not very attractive guy had the good luck to date a young pretty woman when they both were younger, however in his later years, he basically bragged about it only to have the still pretty but older and wiser woman reveal for all to see that she is ashamed of having once dated him and to add insult to his injury, he has been forced to apologize and apologize to no avail.
@Laslo - I was cheerfully checking off all your boxes. Then we got to the masturbation. I guess I fall a bit short of the platonic ideal.
This is how all SJW book promotions should end.
Would Natalie have freaked out if it was Brad Pitt or George Clooney doing the bragging? I feel like when women are around 40, they get pretty ashamed of the ugly musicians they liked when they were 20.
Poetic? Maudlin.
Is Moby just wailing?
"The problem is, Americans care more about saving whales than saving males" --Warren Farrell
"I don't understand how anyone in the whole world could possibly be interested in this even a tiny bit, even one freedom's molecule worth."
None of us care about Moby, but the kerfluffle gives us something to talk about. It's an easy issue, the facts aren't in dispute, and we don't have to parse, for example, Alan Dersh's evisceration of Mueller.
Or, which would you rather talk about, Dersh/Mueller? Or the semiotics of Moby banging/not banging Natalie Portman.
He needs a rehab exit.
Maybe claim a relapse.
The moby dude didn't realize that in a world where the personal is the political, then there can be no private spaces left, and nothing that isn't eventually a matter of public record and discussion. Slowly but surely the world is changing. In the future, you won't need to tell the world (in a book) that you lied down on a bed next to Nalatie Portman. It will be filmed and audio recorded by some apple or google or huawei machine, and put into the data banks. You and Natalie don't need to suggest competing versions. The Go Pro gods can tell us.
How can we not all cry out in unison for this glorious brave new world to arrive faster? Who doesn't want to know, say, for certains, the Truth about what happened on a hot summer night sometime in the early to mid 1980s, somewhere not sure where, when a young Blaisey Ford and a young Kavanaugh may or may not have been at a party with maybe four people after a day at the club pool?
Many people were anxious for weeks last fall. I know I wondered what song would have been on the stereo.
Kanye West wrote a song that included lines that were not nice re Taylor Swift. Ma Swift says she's unhappy. Mr West suggested he had talked about such prior to release with her. Ms Swift's people contested. Mr West's wife produced audio. Ms Swift said not right context.
Welcome to the new age.
Bam bam bam bam bam bilam bam bam.
We're still in the dark on whether Miss Natalie sucked Moby off in the dorm room.
And now we'll never know.
He would not have these problems if he went
