I just don’t think you’re realizing how contradictory these statements are. What is the correct amount of apologies that would differentiate someone from being inherently bad or inherently good? Who judges those apologies? Who decides how much therapy to do? Whether therapy works and is transformative, or whether it

Huh. So do you believe in capital punishment then? What do you think the purpose of the criminal justice system is? What should we do with these people who you believe are ‘inherently bad?’

I don’t think the argument is that because Masterson is powerful he should have fewer people writing on behalf of his character to get leniency. I think the argument should probably go even people who have less power and resources, should also have people writing letters on behalf of their character to get leniency.

And that is your experience, and you are in your right to take that perspective. I have also been raped, but if I found out my brother was a rapist, I would be heartbroken and searching for nuance to make sense of what I knew about him. I do not feel retraumatized by this. But I also did not pursue my attacker in

But this is the part of him that they saw. Everyone who is in these jails are brothers, sisters, friends, sons, daughters, and cousins. The U.S. criminal justice system is bad and inhumane, even in relation to the bad acts that were done by those within it who did bad and inhumane things. Those people who have

That’s the thing though: Everyone has people who do love them and see these parts of them. And everyone does deserve to be seen in complicated ways. No one is inherently good or inherently bad. And it’s okay to acknowledge that.

Did they discredit victims in their letter? My knowledge is that they tried to present another side of Masterson that they had experienced as part of their friendship. Giving knowledge of that other side of a person is supposed to be part of the ‘justice’ element of the criminal justice system (the blindfolded woman

What if...what if we admit that people are inherently complicated and don’t require that the people who are close to those who do bad things immediately denounce them? What if we say that even people who are on death row – who are a majority black and brown men – deserve to have one or two people who have loved them

Oh my god Jezebel, let it go. You were wrong. Just admit it and stop these shenanigans. 

I’ve loved Jez for years, but they came out and did several very uncritical hit pieces against Depp and pro-Heard that helped to drive this narrative in a very particular direction. And that direction doesn’t actually seem to be supported by any facts. 

I am in favor of masking. I am not in favor of people using kids under 5 (which includes my kid) within their argument because (a) it doesn’t make sense given what we know about Covid-19, and (b) there are benefits to this age-group *not* wearing masks that are not quite matched to the benefit of this age group

Again, are you guys going to apologize for the role you played in this whole thing? Because it was a big role. 

Children under 5 are at the same risk of complications of covid as vaccinated people in their 30s unless they are immunocompromised. So this is not a group that needs to be taken into account when making these sorts of policies. Sorry. That’s just not the science. 

Yes, young children are not eligible for the vaccine. But young children are at the same risk for complications from covid as vaccinated 30-year-olds unless they are immunocompromised. It is still mostly the old and immunocompromised who are at risk. Both of those groups should be cared for by society, but it’s not

I also like masks but I really think y’all need to change how you report on “unvaccinated children.” Unvaccinated kids are at the same risk level as vaccinated 30-year-olds. They are not in the same category as the immunocompromised unless they *are* immunocompromised. 

Uhhhh...so are you guys going to apologize for the role you played in this public drama? Or wait for the defamation case to come for you next? Because I have been a fan of Jezebel for more than a decade now and it appears you guys were wrong about this one. Apologize? 

It just looks like they are on cocaine. 

The U.S. has a big student problem but it also has a lot of different repayment programs that are tied to income. These are very easy to get and apply to. If you’re having trouble paying your student debt, please contact your loan servicer. Payment programs like IBR, REPAYE etc all are tied to income levels. REPAYE

Just a head’s up: That was a pretty bad survey from a survey design point of view. This may be true, but I’d wait for some studies from academic sources before I draw any conclusions about working from home/non-working from home harassment conditions. 

I am one of the people who experienced menstrual changes after receiving her vaccine! Period came almost a week early, was 3 days long (normally 5-6) and was the heaviest one I have had in years.
