Growing up, both my mom and dad used Dry Idea, and they bought it for me as well when I hit puberty, so I didn't even realize deodorants were usually gendered until I started buying my own.

What kind of fucked world do we live in that we have to worry so much about our career track that we're afraid to put the needs of our family first? I don't have kids and don't want them, and even I am bothered by this mindset. Work shouldn't be so important, unless someone is working on the cure for cancer.
Welp, I freely admit that some of my jokes over the past couple of years may not have been in the best taste.
And THIS.
Disqus is the fucking worst.
Between the troll-fest and the "My relative made $1.5 bajillion dollars by sitting on their ass and picking their nose" posts, it's become less worth it to read the comments, which is too bad because they used to be a great place to learn and gain more insight on the topics discussed in the articles.
Indeed, IP restrictions are too easily bypassed. I'm not sure if a report button (directly on post) would make moderation better (identify offenses quicker) or worse (troll-reporting and/or confusing report with a Reddit-like "downvote"), but it's the more practical long-term option I see/saw on various platforms. A…
Did you guys have to run this post past higher-ups before it went out? Or at least the idea that a post like this was forthcoming? Either way, here's hoping that you don't get too much (or any) shit for it.
Sorry you have to deal w/ this on a regular basis. I don't know why Denton is so insistent on his belief that the same type of person that posts rape gifs is the type of person that will lead to a news story/scoop. It's clear that person is here out of malice, why would he (yes I'm gendering it ) also send in scoops…
Honestly? Get rid of inline images in comments. Sure, we all love cat GIFs, but if that is the price for being able to have a discussion without being assaulted with violent pornography then I think it is worth it. That or going back to the greys are the only effective solutions. At least give authors the option…
Hey M, this is a sucky sucky situation.
If IP anonymity is so huge, would it be possible to arrange like a Kinja trade on them? Like if someone wants to post a picture, they have to uncover their IP addy to do so. If they just want to comment, burn away anonymously. (I totally get this sounds like an…
Wow, thank you guys so much for writing this. To be honest, the mods have been dealing with this on and off for years. It's never been as bad as this. But back when we had main page abilities, we were able to remove the content alongside authors and tech. It helped protect our readers, our writers, everyone. It's…
Working at Gawker Media is a dream job for many of the women on staff here at Jezebel. This is a place that takes…
The last thing I want to do is give this giant and troubling waste of our goddamn time the acknowledgment that is clearly so desperately craved. But the fact that I must suppress my pride and bring attention to this in a plea for support from my own employer makes it all the more ridiculous.

Feces is a deal breaker.
We were beta testers for this ankle monitor and it was a mess. It seemed really uncomfortable (could you sleep with an ipod strapped to your ankle?) It also had a bright blinking light. My baby lay awake in his bed, screaming in horror at the blinking lights until we took it off.
