The persistence of unsafe tampons fits into a broad pattern of apathy on the part of American politicians regarding women’s problems. Can you not see that?

Unsafe tampons are a BIG problem. What has been done about it? Nothing. Always we women cry out to American institutional power centers for rectification, but every time our overtures are brutally rebuffed. My patience is at an end.  A political system that does not value women’s health is unworthy of respect and I…

Facebook is the real Freedom Tech.

So what? Visionaries are difficult to work for. That’s been true since the dawn of time. Do you think it was easy to work for Ken Kesey? Or Joni Mitchell? Or Che Guevara? Or Mao? It wasn’t.

Removing the act of payment spiritually elevates the shopping experience. As you exit the Amazon store without paying, a door opens in your mind and you glimpse the possibility for a more humane system of living than heartless Republican capitalism.

Amazon Just Walk Out stores are fantastic. They are exactly like the Diggers Free Stores in Haight-Ashbury back in 1966 and 67. The communal spirit is the same. Anyone who was in the Haight in the sixties will tell you that. Everyone who comes into the Just Walk Out store takes only what they need. And there’s no…

Courteney Cox turns 60 in June. Gizmodo is making all the right moves to become more senior-friendly.  This is welcome, if overdue. We seniors are the most loyal audience a media company can have and advertisers crave our views.  The computer tutorials have been really helpful and I’m telling all my senior friends…

Don’t forget to wipe the keyboard with isopropyl alcohol after your grandchildren have used the computer. Seniors are vulnerable to COVID-19 infections and children are potent germ vectors. Also remember to get your booster shots.

We seniors know about Google. We prefer having the best computer tutorials collected in one senior-friendly website with a helpful community of commenters. These skills may be basic to you but to us they’re not.

Thank you for this amazing well-explained tutorial. I have some Joni Mitchell CDs that I’ve wanted to record but I didn’t know how until now. I’ll recommend Gizmodo to all my friends. They are seniors like me. I can’t wait to hear my recording of Court and Spark in my car.

It would be awesome if Disney were to host a pediatric sex change clinic on park property just to stick it to DeSantis. That’s what I would do if I were the CEO of Disney. Also the warm weather and cheerful amusement park atmosphere would help the children recover from their surgeries.  Everybody wins, except bigots.

Since the 1960's Russia has had enough nuclear missiles pointed out at America to wipe us off the face of the Earth several times over. The possibility that there is an EVEN WORSE Russian threat is terrifying.  Congress must act NOW.

Elon has really stepped in it this time. The fact that the dead Tesla driver Han von Ohain’s blood alcohol was 3.5 times the legal limit and STILL he could drive better than Elon’s software is ironclad proof that the software is faulty and killed him. Yes, Elon, even blackout drunk people can drive better than your…

So that’s it then. I’m assuming Splinter will also be on WordPress if and when it’s relaunched. The Dream is over.

Summer of 2024 will see the tenth anniversary of the creation of tomato trolling by TomatoFace. My aspiration as a TomatoFace scholar was to keep the art form alive on the Gawker successor sites for a…

Kylie is turning into a watered-down version of Crystal Jewell. What was the point of banning Crystal if the staffers were going to adopt Crystal’s shtick? Do they regret losing the reader engagement that Crystal brought? It’s undeniable that commenter traffic declined precipitously in the wake of Crystal’s departure.

So many brilliant American women, dishonored and devalued. It makes me SO ANGRY. That’s why I’m considering not voting in this year’s election. How else can I hit back at America’s sick misogyny?   I can see no other way.

Going by that math, actually voting for Trump is TWO votes for Trump.   Amazing.

I was at the rally. I took the opportunity to speak to female American graduate student Crystal Jewell. Crystal is convinced there’s no point in voting. American democracy is broken and she won’t waste any more of her time on it.  That’s what she said.

Trumpists are so dumb. They think highlighting Nikki’s similarities to Hillary Clinton will decrease Nikki’s mass appeal. They’re WRONG. It’s just the opposite. Similarity to Hillary Clinton is exactly what moderate voters crave. That’s why Nikki’s popularity is surging.
