Came here to say much the same. Twitter and every blog out there is going crazy with #FreeKesha and trying to frame their argument under the guise of the Judge making a bad decision or favoring Corporations over People, etc, etc.

See, the “ever again” at the end of the first sentence of that excerpt is what got me. I hate extra words.

Count the motherfucking clauses in that sentence. Forget the horrifying shit show that was the topic, any editor who let that damn clusterfuck out the door should be fired on the spot for that alone.

The teeth of the comb are like the branches of government over his hair. There are too many of them and they hold too much power when it comes to shaping his coif.

But can he see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?

I think as far as Len and his investigator were concerned, Brendan was an inconveniently sized couch that wouldn’t fit through the doorway. Do you ask the couch what it thinks? Nah, you twist it and turn it and consider it a problem and a challenge until you get it in the house.

My third grader could absolutely read that book, if he had access to it. I can see Brendan being able to read it, I think he was reading at a 4th or 5th grade level. I also think, based on them living in Rural Nowhereseville, WI and being a teenager, that he would have the motivation to read something, especially if…

Yeah, I’ve pointed this out and have been branded on liberal facebook pages (that I otherwise agree with) as an apologist for the prosecution. People here are behaving exactly like they would if Nancy Grace was their first encounter with this case and she said he was guilty and ignored all exconerating evidence. It’s…

I think people are wrongly entangling police frame up job with the police ACTUALLY doing to the crime. While both can occur, police frame up job can happen without them actually committing the crime. Steven Avery and his feud with the sheriff department was well-known in the county. The Avery name—as told several…

I feel that Jasons message is an important one. A lot of people, especially here in the US have a “shoot the messenger” mentality. Working in customer service I see this kind of behavior on a daily basis and it really starts to get to you. We are all upset at whats going on at Konami, especially since they have been…

Congratulations — and I sympathize. Our little boy is just about a year old, and the nine months getting to him consisted of fear, terror, tears, nausea (So. Much. Nausea) and more tears. Followed by an unplanned c-section at the end.

Kevin?

You’re not alone in this, Kevin.

People, it turns out, like to be deceived into thinking they’re getting a sale, even when they’re really not.

Sometimes the person I’m pissing off is my editor of course.

As a newspaper reporter (yes, we still exist) I always tell people that if I didn’t piss someone off today than I didn’t work hard enough.

Pissing people off isn’t doing good journalism. Informing people is doing good journalism. Going for information and appealing to smart discussions instead of clickbait is good journalism.

High Five to you for making decisions that work for you!

My wife and I are in a similar situation - she works full time and I work part time when she isn’t working, and take care of our son.
We did the math and one of us (most likely me, since I earn less currently) would have to take another job just to afford child…

I used to comment regularly on Jezebel for years (under a different name) and stopped because of the feeling the author describes when someone she assumed would be an ally made her feel unwelcome.
