There’s probably someone right behind you taking it out of her hand.

This is insane. Salon jobs are not generally hourly wage jobs and they sure as hell aren’t sub minimum wage jobs. You either rent a station or work commission. A bad commission split is one where the house takes more than half, but I have never seen it worse than 60% house 40% employee, with employee keeping all tips.

Or that we require the enforcement of labor laws so people are paid just wages. Tipping is a hugely problematic system that does not improve worker treatment. Every evaluation of tipping indicates it’s racist and sexist as hell for workers and encourages racist and sexist treatment of customers.

Yup. I live in a building constructed in 1918, I have hot and cold water out of different taps. Dishwasher ain’t happenin’! The clawfoot tub is quaint, though.

Yeah, my building is almost 100 years old and the plumbing is tricky enough as it is. We’re not allowed to get a dishwasher as much as I want one.

I don’t know about the rest of y’all, but in NYC dishwashers are only for the ballin-est of ballers. It’s not like I LIKE to wash dishes by hand, I just have no other choice.

No mention of how kissing strangers is wholly inappropriate, regardless of the gender of the perpetrator? That is sexual assault, and we would be enraged if the tables were turned.

Kissing is a dance. It works best when two people are doing similar things, at a similar pace, in a similar way. A bad kisser doesn’t pay attention to their partner and what they’re doing. This tends to hold true in sex as well, in my experience. Bad kissers are almost always also bad at sex.

They Conservative Right already thinks we’re a bunch of Satanist baby killers anyway so might as well give ‘em a show.

I would give ANYTHING for you and your friends to finally get that fucker’s name.

Blurry bar photos in dim lighting are the single person’s equivilent to baby photos.

Exactly! I mean, I think it’s okay if someone who normally doesn’t spam their IG gets a little excited once in a while having a good day and posts a bunch, but the constant ones... GAH. I don’t need to see more than 5 pics/videos from a single event, cube selfies, or daily affirmation quotes. Oh, and people who like…

Reminder: Dr. King was a preacher who wore a suit and tie while preaching nonviolence. Despite that, he was still arrested, beaten, and ultimately murdered. Being “respectable” doesn’t guarantee that you won’t face police brutality and systematic racism. In fact, being “respectable” guarantees exactly jack shit.

I think we all have that one friend who is terrible at Instagram and you just can’t actually tell them.

Did Jezebel ever feature the Shit People Say To Women Directors (& Other Women In Film) blog? Women in the industry share their stories and images and things that piss them off.

Yes— they invented the term “mirrortocracy” to refer to Silicon Valley, but it definitely also applies to Hollywood & any other aspect of business. They want to hire bros who remind them of themselves & whom they’ll enjoy hanging out with outside of work.

I once had a boyfriend who, while holding a container of metallic gold eyeshadow, said in all seriousness, “So... this is eye shadow. It must go under your eyes, right?” As if it was some mysterious new term that he had to figure out.

To be fair, we’re the only species that does lots of things.

Every continent in Africa.
