Man, it’s not Jezebel without Jerry Netherland, for real.

this guy is likely some agent for the people who actually call the shots, i imagine a conversation like this happened 

Not only did he sign up during peacetime, he would have washed out of the Naval Academy if his dad and grandfather weren’t admirals. And before he was shot down for good, he crashed three other planes. If not for his family, he’d have been grounded after the second crash (if not fired) and thus never had the…

I’ve read some other commenter make this suggestion before and I think it is a good idea: Trump loves putting his name on everything — so let’s do just that. These border camps should be rebranded as “Trumpcamps” — forever linking him to this act of abominable cruelty.

For real. I didn’t vote for JT (voted green) and I'm not even a big fan, but when you look south and see women and trans folk literally getting their rights repealed, black people getting shot by police for no reason, kids murdered in school on a damn near weekly basis while corporations and the NRA try to spin it as…

But according to Politico, Warren’s “disciplined style, populist-infused speeches, and perceived ability to win over suburban female voters” has “raised concerns” among Trump advisers.

Everyone loved a pop-cultural phenomenon and has let everyone know why it was so great, and what the right and wrong takes are, so now begins the scramble to find faults with it.

His assignment from Overlord Mitch is to cover her with his slime and thus take the shine off of her.

You know what, I think men WOULD touch other men in this way if it wasn’t seen as weak/effeminate/GAYYYYY or some other manifestation of toxic masculinity. Men can show that affection to women, and women show that affection to women, because women are a safe space for showing tenderness and emotion. I’ve seen and…

One of my co-workers was walking down a San Francisco street when she tripped and nearly fell into a row of motorcycles. In that weird time slowing thing that happens in crisis moments, imagining the wave of tumbling bikes as she fell, an arm reached in and caught her while the other hand grabbed the first bike.

Men: you have no business in deciding if a woman can get an abortion.

As much as I love the capabilities of the current generation of smart phones, my two favorite phones were my LG enV, which flipped open along the long edge and had 2 screens and keypads (one traditional screen and keypad on the exterior, one larger screen and full keyboard on the inside), and the original Motorola Droi…

So they always know where their towel is?

If that’s what you think is the issue, then you are missing the point. Using methods to screen and having a low entry point makes it easier and safer for full service sex work. Most sex work is legal full service sex work is no legal or decriminalized in most states in the US. So for sex workers this more than just…

If I showed up to a first date showing tons of skin, that would set a very bad tone for the date.

I think we need to approach a world where “respecting yourself” means dressing in the way that is appropriate to the situation, not to how much skin you’re showing. It’s one thing to show up to an interview in clothes that don’t represent you’re a professional, but if it’s hot and you’re walking around outside, your…

They’re not publishing my book either, do I have a case? They’re not publishing a lot of people’s books, anyone else thinking class action?

They should hire Wile E. Coyote to paint the wall. Then we can all sit back and laugh as the Mexicans ram into it.

all fashion is a made-up thing.

In the context of my rape, I was lucky. It was gentle — a hand on my throat, not a knife or a gun. It left me unscathed — only bruising on my face and the urge to self-harm, no PTSD or anything that required the emergency department. I was too young to get pregnant. I was able to hide it, so only a lifetime of…
