what’s been going on at jezebel

I find Hoffman’s childhood endlessly fascinating to think about. She’s on an episode of Finding Your Roots and I love hearing her talk about her childhood and even find her to be very thoughtful and fair towards her father, with whom she had a tenuous relationship. I think she’s a really interesting and bright actor…

“I hope you choke" is a death wish, not a death threat.  A death threat would be "I am going to choke you." It's not a nice thing to do, but it is not the same thing. 

I’m mad at myself. I knew before I clicked the link that this would be some bad faith bullshit, and I was right. Just peak gossip-rag shit-talk for clicks.

(at the time, Gyllenhaal was 10 years her senior).

Slow news day or this blog is finally dead?

Oh for fuck’s sake. Squid Game costumes DOMINATED Halloween this year, are you going to go after every single person that wore one or are you just singling out Chrissy because she’s the bête noire of the moment?

There are many things one could criticize Teigen for, but throwing a party themed around the biggest television show of the year is not one of them.

I think it would help if Jezebel (and most other “news” outlets) would stop calling them anti-police protests, and anti-policy BRUTALITY protests. They are not the same thing. People are not protesting the existence of policy - they are protesting the mandate that police can kill and maim with impunity.

I don’t give a shit if Wal-Mart burns down either. The problem is, neither does Wal-Mart, really — they just pass whatever it costs to rebuild/replace the store on to customers, so we all end up paying for it. And the 300+ people that Wal-Mart probably employed? Yeah, best case is they’re on uninsurance for a while,…

“Off camera,” she added. “I never broke. I stayed with her.”

Yup, lots more.

Could she be any more pretentious? 

Is Gaga trying to convince us she can act???

The internet has to accept that Chris Evans is single, attractive, and he fucks. He doesn’t seem interested in monogamy right now. And that is fine.

RIP James. I always thought that the show missed an opportunity to give Gunther a bottle episode. Something that follows him as he gets off work and then reveals that he’s an MI6 operative or a base jumper or a driver on the F1 circuit. Something like that.

Union workers are much more comfortable saying, “This is not ok, I am not doing this, do I need to call my union representative?” Non-Union workers are much more easily pressured to just do what the boss says even after pointing out unsafe things.

Right. I was going to comment about this.

To be clear: I feel terrible for Alec (and I hate the shit out of Alec Baldwin, that’s irrelevant here). This is horrible, horrible, horrible and I feel bad. Of course he never meant to kill anyone or hurt anyone.

But he’s not just an actor here as I thought this morning. He’s…

New Mexico is by no means a red state. If you look both senators, 2/3 congressmen, and the governor are all Democrats. The film industry boom there actually started under Bill Richardson’s governorship. However, it has always been one of the poorest states, has a fairly low population, not a lot of natural resources,…

If any part of you is “grinning,” I think you’re the complete asshole in this situation.
