"privileged american white women"

Some would argue that's not just Jezebel's target demo, but feminism itself's.

Yes! Just yesterday someone told me they've lived in NYC for many years and while they went to a fancy liberal arts schools there were often parties with zero people of color, like Girls, so Dunham was correct in leaving out people of color.

I'm blue collar/poor white trash and the class differences are glaring. Nothing says "privilege" like a bunch of educated people over thinking every last fucking thing in the goddamned world.

I think if Twitter threats were being made via phone calls to your house, they would be taken at least somewhat more seriously, and law enforcement would have at least some reference point in how to deal with them. Why should this be any different, legally speaking?

I had a similar experience on an overseas flight. I was condemned to a middle seat between two large people. I'm trying to say this as diplomatically as possible: there wasn't room for me. These two people should have shared three seats, but they were forced to sit for 10 hours with another human squashed between…

The point I'm trying to make is that a regulatory agency has to step because at some point we're all going to be unable to squeeze into those seats. And the airline does have a duty to ensure the comfort of all its passengers instead of prioritizing profit all the time. That's the underlying theme here.

Lindy also filters out the comments that don't agree with her, so there's that.

Given that the customer can be a complete raging, spoiled asshole, I don't think he should be king, but yes that's the gist of my point.

Yes this letter is disgusting and shameful. And I completely agree with your points. This is truly indicative of gleeful fat-shaming and sanctimony that are so prevalent.

she's demanding respect for her shitty books and thinks critics don't like her because she's a woman? puh-leeze. critics don't like her because her books are drivel. they're the literary equivalent of mindless rom-coms. you know who else gets shit on by critics? dan brown. last i heard, he has a penis and writes…

I brought my camera and now there's not one goddamn thing the least bit interesting happening at this game.

A Venezuelan here. This kind of crimes are fairly common here, but this time the victim was a well known and beloved actress/ex Miss.

Its always tragic when a hot person dies.

Williams could not taste anything ... his mother, Ozepher Fluker, said, so she advised him to go to the hospital

If you absolutely must tell an unfunny rape joke, just whisper it to your dog.

Because (add snarky noun here) is a stupid use of English and I wish Gawker would stop using it... Please...

Don Julio: Tequila for those revolutionaries who just don't give a shit anymore.

"Look at me, look at me! LOOK AT ME LOTS! I'M GOING TO INSPIRE THE WORLD BY YOU LOOKING AT ME!"

It's unrealistic to think that people will only look at you online and it won't crossover into real life. This woman is trying to create a brand for herself, and being recognized is part of that brand. She doesn't deserved to be mistreated or have her privacy violated, but it's silly to act like you're able to choose…
