There must be a board in the office where everyone tries to out do each other with Trump descriptions. Move that one to the top please!

Yes, I enjoy the pop culture posts on Jezebel, including Dirt Bag and Tweet Beat. The MAIN reason I’m here though is for the stellar writing and reporting on feminist issues. The authors here are badass. Please, Gawker, don’t make them pop reporters first and feminists second.

HOW DOES 500 DAYS OF KRISTIN STILL EXIST? JUST PUT IT OUT OF IT’S MISERY ALREADY.

“The emotional effects of his diagnosis may help explain some of his behavior over the past two years”

Wow, Jia. Wow.

The real question is...

Is it Pet Smart or Pets Mart?

It’s not the most concise sentence ever written, but there’s nothing grammatically wrong with it.

I feel like $12-$14 is decent considering the (stupid, horrible, grr) epidemic of no jobs for people without advanced degrees. At least it’s a living wage, though I hate that that’s not a given. I got paid to work my ass off for $13, one of the very few jobs I was qualified for with my 2 bachelors and masters degree.

I don’t think it’s “normal” or “decent” to try to get someone drunker than they might want to be without their knowledge. Not a “funny prank” to play on a potentially pregnant woman, or someone on medication, or the night’s designated driver...

Let’s be honest, Natasha. Can I call you Natasha? You would have written a completely different article were the professor a man. Natasha? Come back, Natasha! Natashaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Absolutely. I read the linked article when it was published and it is ABSOLUTELY clear that she was, even if subconsciously, inventing all of his communication. As his family notes, his “voice” when using her as a writer reflected her interests, her passions, and not his own. There is absolutely no evidence that he is

Why is the headline a question? She had sex with someone who was incapable of consent, has the mentality of a toddler, and who had no capacity to resist. Who gives a single fuck if she’s the “mother of two”? She’s a rapist.

Yes. She is a rapist. She took advantage of someone who is, by professional medical opinion, so severely disabled that he cannot care for himself, cannot speak, and has the mental capacity of a toddler. She took advantage of someone for whom she had responsibility. Whether he has a “healthy libido” or not is a

Did I wake up in some alternate universe in which presidential candidates WANT people to believe they’ve stabbed someone and hit their mother with a hammer?? I’m losing my mind right?? Are we dead??

I too hate to be “that guy”, but I’m disappointed with the encouragement of bullshit stories associating the homeless/ mentally ill with demonic possession.

I think i believe in ghosts even less after reading these. “My entire family is psychic, hawaii is a hotbed of psychic activity. Here’s the ultimate proof: Once, a crazy man on a bus said “oh you can see me”, after i stared at him for 30 minutes. I freaked out, screamed at him and threw up.”

I hate to be “that guy,” but come the fuck on. Let’s be scared of things like Ted Bundy, the Tara Calico story, the German Machuca story, Israel Keyes, that there are Lyle Steviks waiting to happen all around us, etc.

Pagans do that too, from the Victorian tradition of having Dumb (silent) suppers in memory of family and loved ones that had died the year before. I really like it.

Ugh, I get that she was an amusing storyteller, but I don’t understand how anyone could read that story about violent sex trafficking and a mentally ill-person self-harming and attempting suicide and come away entertained. The whole thing was pretty fucking disturbing.

Ughhhhh this man has raped his wife dozens of times. You know it. I’m barely kidding when I say that writing that should be a sufficient confession to get him sent to jail.
