Don’t you see? Ali Larter is the Victim here. Also how dare you question women’s idea o safety and how comfortable they are feeling safe? ( I might have confused my white liberal women defense for their prejudice).

This baby boomer generation is truly the worst generation in the same way their parents was the Greatest Generation. I don’t understand why so many 80 year olds want to stay in their jobs. They’re rich enough to retire. Feinstein could’ve gone out on a high note in 2018, but chose to run again. Read more

They don’t want to tell you that they are arguing that Moby Dick should go away entirely, so instead what they do is pick out the rantings of some inane moron YA writers (redundant as that may be) to cloak their argument in “BUT RERCERSTS LIEK MERBER DERCK!” Read more

Not important! The important thing here is a white woman with an ego had a twitter meltdown on a person of color and hurled childish insults.

All discussion of high school reading, the value of old(er) books, motivating students, and updating syllabus (what’s the plural?) is moot!

“Considering that at least two prominent Roman politicians fell in love with her I doubt she was “Nubian” as some people claim” Read more

So he’s punching down by criticizing white women? As if white women in particular are some protected class that should be shielded from criticism. Read more

Were they all “Not All White Woman” like tends to happen in cases like this?

Apropos of nothing... So what did end up happening to the naked ally lady who sat down in the middle of the Portland BLM protests? Or was that Los Angeles?  Or was that.... Never mind.... 

thank you for sharing this!

At the same time, Gloria Gray, who heads the West Alabama Women’s Center in Tuscaloosa, said she couldn’t afford to give her staff raises or pay for a $20,000 fence to keep the daily protesters off the property. Her crowdfunding effort produced about $4,000. Read more

I am going to sip over here with the black women. We voted for the qualified woman.

Hey third party voters/Susan Sarandon/people who didn’t bother to vote because of reasons aren’t you soooooo glad you didn’t vote for Hillary Clinton? You have to keep in mind that in every election the fate of the SCOTUS is at stake

Populism. Read more

I’ve read Jezebel for awhile and it seems like the writing has really gone downhill in the past few years. It just lacks nuance (and attention to detail in this instance) and some of it verges on self-parody.
