I only started commenting on Jezebel recently but I'm pulling the plug on commenting in the future. It's so disheartening and dispiriting to read these disparaging and extremely shallow comments. It really doesn't make sense to me at all. I know this website isn't supposed to be a feminist website first and foremost,…

Cultural movers and shakers have always, ALWAYS been an intrinsic part of social justice. They have a voice and a platform that connects with people the academics and long-time activists could never reach on their own.

Thanks, I called L&I and they already have a complaint about this building so they'll be out. 68 degrees, everyday? All the time? Wow, my landlord always turns the heat off on weekends and most nights. The apartment manager has it set to come on when she comes to work in the morning but not even that today. I'm so mad

It's only been six months. It took longer for Chris Brown to mess up again too, but he was immediately and rightfully vilified after only one incident. He also had to face actual consequences. I don't condemn the couple for staying together. My dad choked my mom and he got help and they are still together and I love…

There are minimum heat requirements on the east coast? It's 5 degrees in Philly today and there is no heat in my entire apartment complex. We haven't had heat since last week sometime. I know in New York City there are rules regarding heat but I've been looking on the net all day for anything for Philly because I am…

"Documented" being the operative phrase. Until the incident with Rihanna, Chris Brown did not have a "documented" history of violence either. You don't go from zero to bite marks, not unless you're three years old. But since men are profoundly discouraged from reporting domestic abuse or from taking it seriously it's…

Yeah, I'm with you, what exactly is the clear difference between Emma Roberts and Chris Brown? This woman left teeth marks...

This is how an apology should be done, I like you.

I'm new here too, I understand. My mother was raped by someone who was part of the same organization as her and she chose to pursue disciplinary measures through them. She would have trusted their judgment and it would have been much less stressful for everyone involved. She didn't necessarily want to ruin his life…

I...I'm kind of new here and I'm not sure but you seem like an MRA troll the kind I'm not supposed to feed? Anyway, I will answer your question.

Since you've never even heard of RAINN (the most famous anti-rape organization in the world) I am going to give you the benefit of the doubt. I will assume you ask in good faith. I don't think it's a crazy question, why go to the college and not also go to the police. You're getting deserved pushback because asking…

Hey, hold up, wait a minute! This is absolutely not what causes men to dismiss rape claims and accuse women of crying wolf. Centuries-long misogyny is to thank for that, and a patriarchal system that frames women as unreliable by nature and incapable of actually being raped except in the most limited of circumstances.

Reading this interview was the first I've ever wished I was a teenager. Only briefly, I know better than to go back to that place and so far 30s are awesome for me. But I connected so strongly with this and the teenager I was could have really used it. I feel inspired now.

Oh you said the magic words, Philip Chbeeb. Now I gotta watch! I have such an intense crush on him and the watery way he moves. He also won on abdc with his crew.

Is it just me or is NASA not really saying anything at all with this statement?

I'm with you. I don't even think she was apologizing. It's not a faux-pology, it's not an apology at all because she doesn't seem sorry she did it. She's just explaining her rationale.

No it is not audio of people dying. Have you heard it? It's audio of a news announcer, not the explosion itself. It's world-famous audio at that.

It's not random. Nearly every song on the album begins with some kind of clip that is personally meaningful to her. The Challenger disaster was a national moment of shocking loss. Maybe it was meaningful to her same it was to millions of other people who have never forgotten. She and I are the same age and I can still…

Your comment isn't making a lot of sense to me. She says the song is about how quickly you can lose someone you love so you need to hold on to every moment. You are calling this a lie although the lyrics are certainly in harmony with what she said and also, it's her song ("kiss me before they turn the lights out"…

Oh I'm so sorry to hear that!! That is devastating.
