I absolutely remember the first time I heard “Smells Like Teen Spirit” on the radio....I was at work and everyone literally stopped what they were doing to listen to this song. It’s hard to imagine now I’m sure, but you are totally correct.... Cobain sounded nothing like anything else.

I feel like she’s admitting that the Seinfeld effect dampens her ability to look back on it positively or objectively.

Complaining that other bands do Cobain’s voice, so his voice isn’t unique is like arguing Jimi Hendricks was a mediocre guitarist because tons of people play like that now and most of them suck. It’s historical revisionism. Yeah, lots of people (most of which are worse bands) sing like Cobain, but when he burst on the…

To be fair the head of Cherokee nation is only 1/32 so he could go eat a bag of dicks for giving the gop this softball. They could have easily sent her office a statement informing her how stupid that was. But no let the party that doesn't want you to have any rights get the win. Enjoy the voter disenfranchisement.

Forget it, Milt.  It’s Gawkertown.

I don’t think people want to watch it. Like the professor quoted in the article, it might make people feel angry so they choose not to watch it - rather than maybe learning that Elizabeth Warren is not the garbage heap that Trump and his goons want you to believe she is.

I feel like there is probably also a correlation between moms who breastfeed their 4 year olds and moms who don’t believe in vaccinations. 

I think there’s a difference between telling someone there’s something wrong with them and keeping it to yourself but feeling creeped out about what they do.

She has only ever said that her family’s oral history said they had Native American ancestors in their direct family lineage. Just like she said in the video, saying you have native ancestry is not the same as saying you are a tribal member or have a tribal identity. This is true no matter how much Trump or others…

I don’t really agree with the tenor of the article or with the comments so far. Elizabeth Warren’s oral family history included Native Americans. Documentation that many generations back can be sketchy, and Trump put her on the defensive about it. Yes, she could have ignored him, but taking the high road over…

Thank you, ladies. This is giving me life because female sexual agency is important, and we just can’t protect that or even effectively fight rape culture by treating women like victims every time they have sex we don ‘t like. No to this infantalization. When adult sexual relationships are being discussed, a…

I would tend to agree normally, but does that still apply even if the subordinate initiates (which I notice you ignored in my post)?

The grim comments in pending, justifying this as ‘kink’ without getting dismissed, really prove your point. Especially when in response to commenters who have already said they’re distressed due to abuse. I won’t ungrey them by replying directly, and flagging does fuck all lately on Jez. So gross.

I’ve read some incredibly cogent critiques of choice feminism from both writers and commenters here over the years, and (in general) it feels like an overly optimistic, 90's third wave throwback approach that doesn’t help us understand the sheer pervasiveness of rape culture and how it constrains our choices. After…

Jezebel is one of the few sites I've visited where the comments are actually the high point. 

I know this won’t be popular here, but Republicans have a point on Kavanaugh, and I’m a liberal. I mean, Kavanaugh, a man, SAID he didn’t do it. I mean, now, whenever a woman credibly accuses a man of sexual assault of abuse, do we have to pretend to listen to and care about her story even though the man says “Nuh…

I’m a straight woman of color and my dad sexually abused me. Let me spell out to you what incest meant to me. I can remember only a very few moments of my childhood ever being happy. There are no childhood photos of me smiling. I spent much of my childhood in my bed, under a blanket, crying. I was completely…

Yeah, the perjury should have sunk him by now. That and the bias and total lack of “judicial temperament” he’s insisted in the past is so important.

At this point the constant lying under oath should disqualify him regardless of the sexual assault allegations.

What a big tough dude, yelling at a grandmother and her grandkids. Bet he wouldn’t say shit to her son/their father.
