My name is not "Gawker." It's Rebecca Rose. (You're not even on Gawker. This is Jezebel.) You can call me Rebecca, "Burt" (my nickname )or Ms. Rose, if you're nasty. I believe those videos play sporadically at different times for different people but I do not know since I am not part of that aspect of our blog that…

Both of my children are internationally adopted, both abandoned in safe places where they were immediately found and taken to safety. I hope that some day they can find their parents and get answers to their questions. We celebrate their adoption days, their gotcha days, their citizenship days, and their birthdays,…

I know it might be tempting for some to judge her mother for abandoning her, but to be honest, after thinking about the facts of the case, I can't even a little bit. She was raped, and had parents so oblivious/neglectful that they noticed NOTHING. No signs of emotional trauma/withdrawal, not to mention her…

I'm gonna go ahead and say he dodge a bullet. Raising 5 kids with a woman you impregnated 1 month after meeting online was not going to end well.

Ha! Well, I'm Australian so in my accent it DOES NOT sound fancy. Also, I'm in a one bedroom apartment and looking around, what I just referred to as the "lounge" could also be described as "the other room in our home that is not the bathroom or bedroom". I have been known to refer to my (tiny) balcony with two pot…

In that case I usually hear: "Date me. I am worthy of your time and affection."

Those smug/oversharing married posts only make me think the couple is in a rocky place. You love each other more than anything? Fantastic. Tell each other, not your feed.

I know Rumsfeld was skewered for that line, but... if you think about it it's actually not that stupid. Especially in the context of intelligence and security.

guys don't usually have good emotional support systems. The facebook post sounds like a cry for some emotional support

The third ingredient tonight....is tears.

You think Deadspin is confused? There's an increasingly ugly thread on Jalopnik about whether a conscious uncoupling can even be performed in a stick-shift vehicle made after 1968 that hasn't been retro-fitted.

This acerola cherry and jerusalem artichoke smoothie is going down with a heavy heart.

So that's what a Pinterest divorce looks like.

I say this with all the love I have for this family (read: lots and lots), but look at her sister, her mom, and her grandma. This is not disdain for a family vacation. This is hereditary RBF.

Really? At no point in the news story where you first heard about the incident or the tv news about the murder or any of the thousands of articles that have been written here or on the rest of the web did you ever read or hear her name?

Exactly. Each of these signs might as well end with, "Stop being so hysterical - my actions are never influenced by cultural expectations of my gender and yours." #irony

Yeah, there's that as well. Saying "it's OK I do the housework because I'm just better at it" without questioning why the man was never taught to sew, or whatever, isn't exactly groundbreaking stuff.

Here to say I wish Oprah had just broken into "Let it Goooooo, Let it GOOOOOOO!" after saying "let it go" those coupla times.

As always, hate reality TV but love the magic that editors can make. "Maybe she doesn't have the tools..." clip of Lindsay interacting with the woman that did not give her the tools.
