Yes Jez has decades of celeb mistreatment in its archives. Not saying that every story was necessarily unfair, but I’ve been around Jez long enough to read quite a few incredibly bad takes. So DM posts stories that aren’t that earth shattering - so what? They’ve obviously found a niche that people enjoy reading. I…

You know this woman is a terrible tipper. Everything about her screams “five percent tipper”

Agreed and as a Gen X’er I’d like to add that Millenials were never cool so I don’t know why they’re all upset about the hate for skinny jeans etc. They have literally spend decades proclaiming how nerdy and dorky they are.

This so much. Every time some scumbag is revealed, for some reason a ton of people shift their gaze to whoever else might have been in the room and start piling on them. It’s a great way to shift the blame away from the abuser. 

The comments on here about SMG’s response are lame. It’s not on SMG to corroborate anyone’s story - abusers pick and choose victims and it’s entirely possible that she didn’t experience what another coworker did. Or on the flip side she may also be a victim of Whedon’s abuse and just wants to move on with her life and…

Yeah you’re wrong - in that you don’t know what you don’t know about SMG’s experience and career. The burden is not on her to corroborate things that she may or may not have seen or experienced. It’s on the entertainment industry to believe the victims and respond by not working with Whedon in the future.

Yes to this a million percent. Like leave the lady alone already. The NYTimes creating this documentary is just another greedy bite at the Britney apple all dressed up as highbrow journalism. Also, Justin Timberlake is a dick, but bad relationships and revenge songs don’t give another person a mental illness. That’s…

No no - this is that neat trick where we get mad at the woman who PUT UP with the shitty behavior rather than the person who actually did the shitty behavior...

Why are we shitting on Shailene? Jezebel continues the tradition of tearing down women on a “feminist” website because (checks notes) they just don’t like her for some reason... Like if she wants to eat dirt, who really fucking cares? Until she starts telling people not to get vaccinated, she’s just doing things that…

I will concede that Justin Bieber’s choice of religions is not one I would choose (problematic church culture), but millions of people credit God in some form for getting sober around the world every day, so if that’s what helped him not drink himself to death, I think we could do the bare minimum of not snarking on…

The pin is totally Mockingjay!

Thank god someone else commented on this. Like yeah Tom Cruise sucks for so many other reasons, but this rant is pretty legit. Also, to the people who are like “but he didn’t have to yell” - apparently he did, because people weren’t taking shit seriously. To the person who quoted in this thread that yelling at people…

As you will note from my original post, I am fully aware that it’s an unpopular opinion. So yeah.

This is the very best response to this letter, including the article response.

Yes thank you! I know for sure you’re a Gen Xer because this is the exact reasoning I have! We’ve been around long enough to remember when it was rebellious.
I also have friends who are tattoo artists, and I don’t begrudge people for having them, it’s just like “ok (shrug) cool - you got a tattoo. Mmhmm.” And if I’m…

I second this so hard. At this point in the pandemic, if people aren’t following protocol I feel there is no apology necessary for someone flipping out on someone who isn’t doing the right thing. 300,000 Americans dead and so many more out of work and facing homelessness. Fuck anyone who isn’t taking it seriously by…

Super unpopular opinion, I know (gen X’r here - literally everyone I know has tattoos), but as a tattoo UNenthusiast I kinda hope this catches on haha.

The fact that there was anything longer than one sentence in this story is baffling. This is all it needed to say: “Jeffrey Toobin masturbated on a Zoom call with co-workers. He was fired. That is all.” Would any non-famous person be afforded any sort of analyzation or hand wringing over this act? No.

I don’t find it surprising at ALL that this was self reported data, either. Because I guarantee you that men who participated in this survey 100% believe they were doing SO MUCH when in fact they were doing less than the bare minimum.
