I have come to terms with this current season being it’s last.

Longtime Jez fan, first time poster. I created this account just now because Jackie was a casual friend of mine and I’m the one who sent the story into Jezebel. Just wanted to say thank you so much for using my tip and posting her story. Jackie was a funny, charming, kind young woman and we are trying to get her story

I certainly didn’t do anything to deserve that fucker.

I’m really, really scared, you guys. I just read a poll that says Trumps numbers have gone up around 17% in the past week—AMONG BLACK PEOPLE. Whaaaaat. Who are these people? What are they thinking? What is wrong with people and this country? Our culture hates women so much that any man, even this man, is better than

What can you do to change people’s brains?

I’m still running into people who are voting 3rd party in Ohio because “Trump and Hillary are equally bad.” We’re a fucking swing state, and people’s constitutional rights are on the line, but they, in the immortal words of Sam Bee, insist on remaining “morally pure” (have have the fucking PRIVILEGE to do so).

If you are a traditional Democratic voter who chooses to vote for Gary Johnson or Jill Stein or just not to vote, because you “don’t trust” Hillary Clinton, please go ahead and consider yourself my mortal enemy.

white people didn’t burn all of them; only almost all of them.

Sweet! This is actually a very exciting trend if it keeps up. Reexamining allegedly fake evidence is important, as, for years, archeology has been passing expert opinion off as fact, and then building cases on false assumptions. Now that we have a greater breadth of tests that can be performed, it’s critical that we

EXCEPT, if you use a service like AirBnB to do it, you’ve agreed to their terms and conditions.

I think she occupies the position directly between a rock and a hard place. She may be contractually obligated to do promotion for this film and she’s chosen to do so in a way that doesn’t dismiss or ignore Parker’s actions. Perhaps she’s implying that both the film and the controversy it generated because of Parker’s

I can’t imagine the psychological position of having filmed a rape scene informed by one’s own experiences and then to find out that the writer and director who helped create it were also accused of rape. Moral vertigo.

Yeah, speaking as a person who always comes up with the great comeback about two hours post-incident, I would like some of those skills, please.

People who heckle comics must be suckers for punishment.. picking a fight with a person who is literally there because they are funny (and often incisive and quick thinkers), in a setting where literally 99.9% of the people present like them and are -at best- indifferent to you.

She really handles herself so confidently. When I saw her perform live she did a bit about Hillary Clinton and some guy yelled “Who cares!” She immediately had the spotlight on that guy and told him to come down to the stage if he really wanted to talk. She even used some condescending baby talk on him. Not another

Why the *cringe*? My 7 month old is named Greta. My husband and I love it and always say that we nailed it on picking her name. No regrets! I haven’t come across another child Greta since having her. Plus my mother in law is German, so it sounds awesome when she says her name with her thick accent.

Tammy Duckworth is awesome. I will never forgive the Human Rights Campaign for endorsing Mark Kirk.

Taking Caster out doesn’t get you a medal, but thanks for being a sore loser, Lynz.

As I age it becomes clearer and clearer that the law and justice are two very different things.
