Yeah. $228,000 is a paltry salary. Sure. Is it comparatively smaller than an NBA salary? Yes. But that’s still six and a half times median earnings in the US. Most people would consider $228k a pretty good salary. Let’s not pretend that a high salary isn’t high by selective comparison. After all, by that logic I could…

I am so sad about the change to the Jezebel community   Where have the posters gone?  I would love to know how to reconnect.  SNS was a big part of my life, so many smart, kind and funny people. 

So everything the reactionaries stand for is repulsive, but we’re letting them win if we ever call them out on it or expect any consequence for bad behavior if it’s coming from a reactionary? Somehow we can only “win” by excusing everything they do...

Except only one party favors racism, bigotry, claims CRT exists where it doesn’t, claims trans people do things that they don’t, and then explains that gay people ‘recruit’ more people into their ranks, oh, and also believes that the entire Democratic power side is made up of Satanic worshippers who use children’s…

They’re starring/ungraying people: A commenter with a history of racist, misogynist, and anti-trans posts was ungrayed when he posted a long, hateful, pro-BDSM post. Literally, up until that point, he had been stalking an openly-trans commenter (he took a version of her screen-name and posted racist shit), is *still*…

Yeah, it seems the new crop of writers don’t really understand the site. The one who posted this has neither starred nor replied to any comment, and she’s not alone. I’m not sure how anyone will become ungrayed.  Prior writers were at least somewhat engaged with commenters.

Women have a higher incidence of miscarriage once they reach their forties. It’s an absolute outrage that her conservatorship denied her the ability to have a child throughout her late twenties and her thirties, and very sad given the fact that she had a limited role in raising her two sons (though I certainly don’t…

I’ve been commenting here for 3-4 years and I don’t think any of the original staff, certainly none from the original SNS, are here any longer. Most of them went over to NewGawker which is why the articles are 99% better (the recaps of American Song Contest justified the existence of the show, to which I only made it…

I would love, just once, when these abjectly stupid arguments are presented, for a journalist or judge or whoever to just take a moment of silence, take a deep breath, and ask the person, “Do you think I’m stupid?”

I’m not really a SNS participant but this was a weird way to lead into it and I’m honestly... I’m just a “what” on this article.

I follow a lot of true crime stuff, but this is like looking in a mirror and hating what you see. Why are we watching coverage of what is either someone’s extremely tragic death or, worse,…

Fucking hell, at this point just put every god damn 4chan piece of shit on a watchlist. Shutdown their hosting, lock them out of financing and arrest the person running it.

And it's not like anything is going to happen to her anyway. There are no consequences anymore. 

If they're grifting on behalf of kids, isn't that a good thing? Like Robinhood for babies or something?

I guess I don’t understand why they’re trying to spin it at all. I mean, she said. It’s a term that means something to her base of support. She’s hardly alone in her use of it to attack anyone who disagrees with her. Why act like it means anything other then how she meant it?

I just don’t see how the optics improve by…

Couldn’t somebody sue her to death for defamation? 

You don’t really get how ideology functions, do you? Is this kinda like when you yelled at me last week because you didn’t know anything about leftist politics in the US?

You know Jezebel has gone completely downhill when 1) this is an actual published article, and 2) one of the most-starred comments is a rant about “fat bitches.” Congrats on taking the bait, dummy.

Congratulations. This comment is even shitthier and more mean spirited than the article. You've achieved the impossible!

There’s over 300 million people in this country.  Who is “we”?

lol u dum
