Here’s a link to Dr. Hern’s clinic for anyone interested in offering support directly to the people who work there, and here’s the National Network of Abortion Funds. The George Tiller Memorial Fund specifically goes to late abortions.

I’m not a crier. I rarely cry. But I cried now. What a brave woman. What a scary country we live in. I just dearly hope it doesn't get any scarier than it already is for anyone who is not a cishet white man.

fuck off

My heart broke into one thousand pieces for this woman. my god. MY GOD. I CANNOT.

Thank you so much for sharing your story with us.

I try to respect that art is subjective and not everyone likes everything

The Olsens both definitely have a thing for vintage. Can’t blame them. Usually worth more.

Um. In this case yes. Because there is no evidence of abuse. There were no charges filed. The victim is saying it was not abuse, just cops overreacting to an argument (considering it happened in a public airport I’m inclined to believe her).

Hey, I don’t know you and I’m sure you are the expert on your own situation, but I saw your comment and I had to say: remorse/sadness/mortification are commonly the reaction of an abuser. It’s actually fairly uncommon for there not to be an immediate change in the mood of the relationship. Tension building, abuse,…

My partner hit me out of anger, and I know that my partner is punishing herself more that I or anyone else could ever inflict.

I read that Hamilton decided to not use muskets in their performance and people are giving them so much shit for it. I think it shows their sensitivity for the gun violence. I mean we all know that much of the Tony audience is going to be LGBT and it is just too raw to see people dancing around and singing with guns.

I want to feel anything other than sorrow and hurt, but I can’t. All I’ve been doing is crying. My community is bleeding, and all I can do is cry.

I’m guessing you have a much older or much younger partner, given how weird, ad hominem and personal you’re making this. You can say it’s about ME all you want, but it’s becoming more and more clear that it’s about you.

You honestly don’t see how it’s potentially predatory for a man in his late 40s in a position of power in Hollywood to date a barely-legal young woman? An older man exclusively dating teens and twenty-somethings is creepy. It’s creepy when Will Arnett does it, it’s creepy when Brian Singer does it, it’s creepy when…

I really couldn’t disagree with you more. The power imbalance in a relationship between a famous hollywood actor in his 40s and a 20-year-old ingenue is massive. If he’s bringing a bunch of 20-year-old girls around set, it’s creepy and uncomfortable for the people he works with. This is the sort of behavior that I…

No, when you bring your girlfriends on set that’s not just your personal life. You’ve mixed your personal and work life and your coworkers just may comment on it.

Considering she started her career as a young girl dealing with old man lech behavior, I give her a pass for calling out old man lech behavior in her colleagues.

Unrelated, but sort of related: does anyone else experience wildly un-Jezebel ads appearing below every article? This is the one that is appearing for me directly underneath the comments section right now. UGHGHHH

USA Swimming oversees all competetive swimming in the US from age group to masters. He will never be able to join a swim club beholden to USA Swimming for life, meaning most all of the coached teams in the US. It’s kind of a beautiful punishment.

I get that sexual assault is a crime and theft is also a crime, but COME ON - can we stop it with the analogies already? (Not you personally, but the guy you were talking to). Newsflash: I’m not a wallet or a car, I’m a human being.
