Well it hit over the weekend for one thing, and for another avclub covered the basics pretty well. So they’re probably either digging deeper or coming up with a thinkpiece on how it fits into broader issues.

It was published yesterday. AV club broke the story and Jez cross posted.

Nothing against anyone mentioned in the above article, but as someone who worked as a long term temp (almost a year) at Groupon...that place is a SHIT. SHOW.

Hey diabetes! Just stop it!!

I can’t read these comments any more. They keep moving the goal posts:

But even when we do say no, many think we’re being coy. They counter with “really?” “you sure?” over and over and over until you just let in happen because it feels like a losing game.

“She’s a ‘gender equality t***. She’s obsessed with race”.

I wonder what it would be like to be rich and famous but had to deprive yourself in order to be so thin? Not saying this model necessarily, but just in general. I know they have other worldly pleasures to enjoy but I think a good meal with friends is one of the most enjoyable things in life, and I’m not fat.

That model. Damn. I get the same feeling looking at her as I do Giuliana Rancic doing red carpet for E! Skeletal is too much. And not especially attractive, to me.

There are many healthy, naturally skinny models. No question, Victoria.

and what about all the women who do say no and get raped (or stabbed or shot for rejecting the guy) anyway?

Do you really need to ask if the obese looking man who wears baggy suits to hide his massive girth is really in “excellent health”? He tries to hide his obesity, but there’s a ton of pictures of him in his golf attire. That is not the shape a man of “excellent health” has, no matter the age. Then you throw in the fact…

I hope you find something in a better environment - we spend so much time at work and life’s so much more pleasant when you enjoy the company of your co-workers, the work…

Conquering Your Fear Thread

It’s frustrating and aggravating that despite the numerous times this has come up-it came up again yesterday-the worst offenders refuse to be mindful of how much oxygen they are taking up in a space specifically for women (it’s in the tag line even!) and continue to manspread on every post, including those posts about…

Look girl, no one here wants to see Don Jr! We wanna see those perfect boobs!!! No, but seriously congrats and I’m glad you love them!!

I’m sort of bummed with Jez currently. The commentariet seems to be taken over by a lot of dudes who get in first to mansplain all the sex shenanigans, give their hot takes on Trump etc., and generally dominate the threads. This really used to be a place for women to give their opinions, reveal their stories, and…
