Okay. And every time the book is reported on, it’s stated it’s goal is to tell the story from their perspective and to treat them in a positive light. Regardless of whether Harry and Meghan participated in the book, from the excerpts I’ve read, it doesn’t make them sound good, it makes them sound entitled. I’m not…

That makes more sense; the article made it seem like there were no bathrooms at all. 

It is really weird. I read the excerpts from the book that were published a couple weeks ago and he comes off more as a hothead than anything.

Literally talking about the excerpts from Finding Freedom, not trashy tabloids. 

I read the excerpts from Finding Freedom which make them which make them sound like brats. But thank you for jumping to conclusions because you lack basic reading comprehension. 

Didn’t they stay in $1,000+ per night tent? If I was paying that much for a tent, I would definitely expect a bathroom. Also, I know this anecdote is supposed to make Harry and Meghan look relatable and cool, unlike the stuffy Cambridges, but from the excerpts I read, they both (especially Harry) come off as petulant…

I’m going with it’s a side effect of his Faustian bargain to get and keep power at any cost.

I’m so glad Zendaya is getting recognized for the talent she is! Other than Chris Evans’ super sexy outlaw beard in Infinity War, Zendaya’s MJ is the only good thing about the Marvel Universe- her performances are comedic gold and have convinced me that MJ and I are kindred hater spirits. 

Seriously- who the fuck is styling her? She has way too much money to dress like the bargain bin version of Sigourney Weaver in “Working Girl.” I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again- Ivanka is living proof to never piss off people in fashion and beauty because no amount of money can make up lack of style and talent…

I would absolutely love Warren as VP or Treasury Secretary (then those billionaires will really cry) but it’s too risky to put her in the cabinet with a Republican governor in Massachusetts. If there was a way to guarantee a Democrat would take her place, I think she would be better as Treasury Secretary because there…

That’s wonderful to hear. Prosecutors’ offices need more progressive people in them otherwise there’s never going to be any changes made to the criminal law system. 

Thank you for being a teacher. Any time I have a child client charged as an adult, the teachers are consistently the ones supporting client, providing records, information, showing up to court, advocating for them. The commitment and love they have their students is astounding and makes a world of difference when…

The MoCA is one the tests administered to determine if a person accused of a crime is competent to proceed to trial. It’s basically a rubber stamp from state doctors to imprison people who often have severe mental health issues and cognitive disabilities. I’ve had clients with severe schizophrenia and bipolar clients…

As a Latina immigrant, there is only one word to describe this utterly stupid and trashy family- pendejos.

That is so upsetting. I used to hate how protective my parents were as a kid but now I’m so grateful they were. People don’t realize how being abused as a child- sexual, physical, emotional, verbal, psychological- impacts the rest of your life. I’ve been a public defender for over ten years and so many of clients…

Ugh, I’m so sorry you had to work in that type of environment. I hope you were able to escape as unscathed as possible and have found an abuse free work environment.

Absolutely- look what happened to Katherine Heigl. Looking back on the smear campaign against her, even though she did make some ill thought out comments, at the end of the day, she was blacklisted because she was a big star after Knocked Up and she was demanding what she deserved and a woman demanding to be paid what…

My only experience with pageants is watching a couple episodes of Toddles and Tiaras and it was so upsetting. It’s definitely a scary world where mothers are living out their dreams through their daughters, the same way sports dads do with their sons. 

I don’t know if this is at all helpful, but since I’ve started posting on Jezebel a few months ago at the beginning of quarantine, I have found (with the exception of a few obvious trolls) the Jezebel comments section to be a supportive environment which fosters robust debate. With the exception of the trolls, I have…

Agreed. I also wonder how much of it is blackmail- people afraid to come forward because skeletons they don’t want expose even if it’s not anything as awful as pedophilia. For example, fear of being outed even as recently as 10-15 years ago, or having substance abuse or mental health issues exposed. I also wonder how…
