Grooming a vulnerable adolescent into a lifelong pleasure companion has been his dream from the outset. He’ll never see her as a complete person— it’s all about his influence and ownership over her life. And in a dash of orientalism and a heaping spoonful of incest-y drama and it’s hard to imagine how she…

omg that video is perfection. “I was so thorally disappointed and sad... You have represented yourself as a restaurant, a community, a lifestyle of people.”

Leaving aside the arguments about the inherent sexism that you won’t accept, I’m still confused by your proposition. “The best possible people” is not an objective, quantifiable measure that we can point to. It’s a subjective decision made through a combination of so many factors that they’re ultimately impossible to…

Well, that stat wouldn’t really account at all for a rise in unfulfilled requests for labiaplasty from teens. I’m sure the “problem” is fabricated for the most part, but any trend like this that’s identified by physicians should probably be addressed by their professional organizations. I just wish we wouldn’t report…

I find Bernie so unlikable. Which isn’t that damning; Hillary is obviously far from likable for many. But I also think Bernie is just a bad representative for the principles he espouses.

I think the really difference is that Cholula was first introduced to the US in Texas, whereas Tapatio originates in California. As a TX->CA transplant these distinctions truly haunt me.

Let’s not forget: ignoring suicide, perpetuating indentured servitude, forcing out students with mental health issues, and exploiting poor students for diversity stats while failing to offer them adequate financial support.

You’re saying that people shouldn’t feel the ache to be close to celebrity and should grow up and get a life. But then you’re also saying repeatedly that this long-time friend was cool with the Vogue interview because she was so desperate to brag about having Taylor at her wedding? It sounds like she already was…

I really thought this might go somewhere. I didn’t even mind the writing style all that much. It just didn’t have much of anything to say...

So many animals living out their dreams! What a world we live in.

Nah, the real queen of mumblecore is Lynn Shelton. Not only is she a great filmmaker, she’s maneuvered mumblecore filmmaking into an awesome career in TV directing that’s really informed by those sensibilities.

So, I’m mad that the voyeur is profiting. And bothered that Talese of all people is the person writing the book.

Zorro...Something... Ducksauce?

It is, and also I thought he was black for a v long time. So I guess it worked.

As a scholar working in porn studies, I see videoing and taking photos of people in restrooms as a major issue. Specifically because stalls are so open. That would be my primary “safety” concern, which is really more of an invasion of privacy issue and one that has nothing to do with the gendering of restrooms. But I…

Every time an article about trans bathroom usage comes up, particularly the idea of gender neutral bathrooms, I see fewer and fewer expressions of fear from women here in the Jezebel comments. I’m so glad we’re moving away from the mythology that gender neutral bathrooms are unsafe.

Sure, but once you’re a parent you’re a parent. People try to do their best to cope with responsibilities they were sometimes never prepared to take on. If parenting “isn’t for you,” is it so bad to sacrifice some of what you’re meant to provide (like absolute efficiency of movement and thought in case of emergencies)…

Of course it is!

What a fabulous piece. It took me a long time to realize why my dad was so into helping with school projects. Dude would get high af and just zone out on it.
