Not sure about the gender divide. In our household, I refuse to keep more than 4 tabs open at a time, unless it’s vital for work. Too many tabs are like too many items on a to-do list that haven’t yet been crossed off. My husband, however, keeps all the tabs open all the time. He’s also a pack rat and a slob (sorry,

Given that I’ll never be able to afford a new home, boycotting those companies is pretty easy for me to do. ;-)

I am now convinced to boycott Home Depot just as I do Walmart. But does anyone know if Lowes treats its employees better?

Seriously. I assume this is meant to be somewhat satirical, and/or maybe the author means “ghetto” as an adjective meaning “poor” or “jerry-rigged,” but come on. I know: Let’s start a column titled “Two Brainy Balabustas” and a post in which we list 20 words and phrases that shaygetz and shiksas can’t use.

Fwiw, I agree with you. Just as I think Jezebel’s post about the copy who adopted the daughter of the addict mother—which was never corrected/updated to show the efforts that the adoptive parents made to help the birth parents, efforts that the birth mother has lauded—undermines liberals’ efforts. Why get offended by

When will you be updating/correcting the story to note that the adoptive family started a fundraiser for the birth mother, who is now in rehab and fully credits the officer? By failing to correct this story, you’re not only practicing bad (abhorrent) journalism but also playing into the hands of every right-winger who

Having cut the cord, I am unable to watch the Puppy Bowl this year. If I’d realized this before we ditched cable...

Great article—thank you! One question for Jezebel at large: Would you consider replacing the “pro-choice/pro-life” terminology with “pro-choice/anti-choice”? It seems odd that a feminist publication would stick with the biased phrase “pro-life.”

Maybe if the Palestinians didn’t continue to attack the Israelis, Israel wouldn’t have to treat them like shit. Maybe if Egypt hadn’t blocked Israel’s shipping routes and mobilized forces along its border in 1967, Israel wouldn’t have had to respond with force that led it to capturing Gaza. Israel is far from perfect,

“that some viewed as ‘anti-Israel’”: who are those people who do not consider statements such as “Israel is an illegal state” and conflating Israel with child murderers as “anti-Israel”? Oh right, those who think it’s okay for Palestine to continue attacking its neighbor. Anyone who thinks the media have a pro-Israel

Sushi and sashimi for lunch and dinner most days to help make up for the continual noshing on jelly beans and Twizzlers throughout the rest of the time. Oh, and a private stash of Diet Coke (though not quite 12 cans a day).

No picture of the puppy? (The older dog looks so sweet!)

Actually, all dogs start as puppies. ;-)

I’m sure he’s a regular commenter on Reddit’s Incel threads

I had to do something similar for my husband, but his cyst was near his anus. It was 16 years ago, but I still periodically remind him when he gives me grief about something.

“I also believe all dogs under 30 lbs are assholes”

If only we could (let the South be its own country, I mean). I honestly can’t think of a downside for those of us in the Northeast.

If he really is the co-writer and it says as much in the acknowledgments, then why shouldn’t he state as much, especially if he has a business to promote? Let’s say a black woman co-wrote a book by a currently hot white male and did not receive a cover credit for it. Wouldn’t you be cheering on the black woman for

Are there any stats that compare suicide rates, per capita, by ethnicity and gender? The only stats I found (https://www.sprc.org/racial-ethnic-disparities) show that whites and Native Americans have appreciably higher suicide rates. Has there been a significant rise recently? Is race/ethnicity more of a factor than
