“These weren’t conversations we wanted to have, but they were necessary.”

#teamweiner forever and ever, amen.

I don’t know where the line is between holding people accountable for things they’ve said previously and forgiving past digressions, but I do know that Tyler does not sound like someone who has learned anything, and instead is insisting that his past actions be ignored because “he’s not like this”.

Baby Birdy stood up all by herself today! I just stood there screaming “Oh my god! Holy shit! Oh my god! Holy shit! Oh my god! Holy shit!” So if her first sentence isn’t “oh my god” or “holy shit”, I’ll be really surprised. Anyway, here’s Wonderwall... Just kidding, it’s worse - baby pictures. SHOW ME YOUR

Similar to Bill Cosby, then. I wonder if, years after his death, people will forget about all those women who bravely sat for a magazine cover to list themselves as Cosby rape victims, and there will be a Saturday Night Social celebrating his work? It feels so odd. Am I the only person who brought up the child abuse

This is my very first post on Jezebel even though I've been reading this website for maybe about two years now. I've never commented before because I've never thought I had anything interesting or worthwhile to add. But after reading the comments sections for so long, I feel like I know so many of you and thought that

Now playing

Have seen lots of great suggestions, but I’ve not yet seen The IT Crowd, the one good thing that came out of a very awkward dating situation for me.

Every Jewish holiday can be summed up in 3 phrases:

I know. I have a lot of questions too. Why do crocodiles and penguins basically walk the same even though one walks on four legs and one on two? Why are macarons and macaroons two different things? If evolution is real, why has my cat stayed the same the entire time I’ve had her? Why are bees dying and why are all

This seems like an appropriate time to say that I didn’t think her acting on OITNB was very good and I didn’t understand the hype. Sure, she’s pretty, but I don’t see the “OMG MUST BONE” factor.

Um, can I please have these, Jessica?? I would use the SHIT out of them. I make all kinds of savory pies and stews and french onion soups that these would be perfect for. I am coveting your tiny creusets.

I hate this song cause it ain’t no girl crush, more like “I’m insanely obsessed with him and I’d wear your skin to get him if I have to”

I just commented elsewhere along the same lines! I was like wow, it’s like a murdered Vegas prostitute was found in the desert and suddenly she sat up and was like “not quite dead yet. In fact, I think I’m getting better. I’m happy....”

On a semi-related note, help me out here. Okay, I was primarily raised in Virginia, so I consider myself a Southerner. Still, I don’t get “Southern Pride” in the Confederate flag/Civil War way. To me, the Civil War wasn’t just about a war fought over slavery, it was a long con made by the plantation owners and the

Oh, I remember this guy! He tore Janet Jackson’s top off on live TV and left her holding the (fun)bag(s) in the morality-police shitstorm that followed. Fuck him.

I’m kind of shocked that they missed the point of that front page so much.

Hillary, can you stop showing his face? Seriously, it’s like you’re trying to program us to remember him and not the victims.

“Why not publish a photo of Dylann Roof, the racist shooter of those nine victims? Don’t bury the lede.”

I actually agree with not publishing his photo. We should let him be nameless and faceless. Don’t make him famous. Keep the focus on the victims and their families.
