I started reading Jez in 2008, a year after I started my personal blog. Somewhere down the line I wrote abt my period & obsession with the change in OB Ultra tamps. My friend said, "You should really send this to Dodai." I immediately said I was not worthy, but I nervously sent an email. A day later my period &…

Dodai, your posts are the reason I have continued to read Jezebel throughout the last several years. The site simply won't be the same without you. Lots of luck at your new job!

Thank you for being just the most wonderful, talented, encouraging, and real. Also, I thought you would enjoy these search results.

I was going to post a bunch of sad gifs but it was making me sad looking for them so in your honor I'm posting hot dudes:

OMG I can't believe I forgot to mention LOLVogue.

IMPORTANT

You need to do catalog reviews SOMEWHERE. Those were my favorite.

Dodai, when I first started at Jezebel, I felt so fortunate to work alongside you because I had long been an admirer of your work and now, three years later, I feel even more fortunate because I get to call you one of my best friends. Thank you for everything. But also F U for leaving.

Dodai, thank you for all of your contributions at Jez. Seeing you as a WoC leading one of the most popular sites while including feminist and womanist content helped inspire me to increase my knowledge on feminism and womanism, and participate on the kinja network. I wish you all the best.

Dodai, when I happened upon Jezebel from Gawker, I was AMAZED at the early articles. I keep saying to myself "it seems like women of color are writing these articles? Could that be possible? You are the internet I was waiting for. Good luck in your new role, and Thank you , thank you so much for your articles, your…

Here's a shot of what I see when I search my "personal" email for "Dodai@jezebel.com."

THANK YOU!

I worked in restaurants through high school and college. One time I went in for some minor surgery and when I woke up, the nurse asked me, "Do you work in a restaurant?" and I said, "Yes - why?" She said, "Just as you were going under, you shouted 'You can't seat 8 people at table 42!" Still to this day, whenever…

Wow, I'm surprised (pleasantly!) to see the EC-DA hullaballoo reported here. Thanks, Kelly! As a romance author with a digital press (not EC), this has been blowing up my FB and Twitter feeds since last week. We authors are all watching this VERY closely, and most of us are horrified at EC's lawsuit. It's frightening…

I like the fact that Dear Author's contributors range from academics who work in cultural studies/queer theory to smart people who just read romance as a hobby. It's a great site if you are a feminist who likes romance. They certainly don't deserve a frivolous lawsuit, especially since I doubt any of them are making…

No obviously it's two lawyers who were married for four months when she was 21 but then there was a Big Misunderstanding and they separated but the paperwork was never finished and their passions become ENFLAMED

You would be amazed. I have seen people stand in the middle of a crowded restaurant pointing out table possibilities while the poor 16-year-old hostess just stands there mortified vainly attempting to get them to just freaking sit somewhere already. Some people are ridiculously picky about their table location. Like,…

You know, rarely do I feel the need to ask for a different table then the one I've been given. Maybe I'll ask to be near the windows if the place isn't crowded, but I can't imagine what could be so wrong with 4 different tables in one restaurant.
