You're conflating two separate things. You cannot consent to sex if you're intoxicated (which is not the same as if you have been drinking) because you are not of sound mind to enter into a legal decision and it's too easy to coerce you. You also can't sign legal documents, for example, while under the influence of…

man, i feel bad for barry. like, he's kinda conservative for my taste, and could have pushed harder on some things tbh, but god fucking D A M N if he didn't have the cards stacked against him.

We're going to lose control of Congress completely. Obama's approval rating is in the toilet.

Celebrity Edition!

Such lovely and kind words. It's moments like this that I wish I knew how to do the whole gifs thing. For this comment, you deserve one with cute baby animals eating ice cream and skipping.

I'm surprised by how great she looks. The photos of her face after the attack were awful and stomach turning. I would have expected for there to be more swelling and/or scars even this long after. I'm really glad she's doing better and hope WM is locked away for a long time. I hope she heals as well inside as she…

I will not address the awful comments. I'll move on to something else.

My mum was a SAHM. She was awesome at it. And she gets super annoyed at people (usually friends of my older sister) who use that line. Or as she said - "Yeah, I did all of that stuff too. I just didn't talk about it all the time. Because it hurts my back to kiss my own ass that much."

A real apology? I don't... I can't.... I've been so engulfed in celebrity, I'm-sorry-you're-offended apologies, I didn't know that real ones existed anymore.

My husband bemoaned my tipping practices, because I tend to overtip. He was all "The store is less than a mile away, you don't have to give them $5." But then we had a pizza guy that just about started crying when I told him I didn't want any change, giving him a $5.75 tip. He hadn't been sure he would make it back to…

In 2nd grade, my sophisticated palette was addicted to PB & Yellow Mustard sandwiches with wheat bread. Don't know why but the sweet and tang just worked. However, it apparently worked for that one year only as I've never wanted one since.

You were ahead of your time:

one of my toddlers was pulling hair out of the drain the other day. Part of me was like "omg, that's disgusting, I should stop that." And part if me was like "well, someone's gotta pull that stuff up and he's having fun, soooo..." Long story short, the drain has now been declogged.

So you're hypervigilant and apprehensive of every situation and then you get "God, all men aren't rapists! Why are you so paranoid?!"

I love how he glosses over All That and Kenan and Kel, easily two of the greatest shows of that era that also happened to be not square-dancing-snowflake white.

Hell yes!!! Finally Jez has someone on the rolls who sciences. Welcome, Caroline!

YAY!!! A real, honest-to-God Science writer! Jezebel, you have answered our collective prayers!!!

A wonderful PhD comic illustrates this problem: http://www.phdcomics.com/comics.php?n=1…

I think I could edit an entire book on understanding the modern world curated entirely from webcomics. I'd draw primarily xkcd and Sunday Morning Breakfast Cereal, with some Hark, A Vagrant! and Sinfest thrown in for variety.

Damn she looks fine as hell. But I'm still so mad at her for what she did to Christine Daae.
