That’s a defender’s job. That’s a noble calling. I mean he gave us the Kardashian’s and all, so I’m not putting him up for sainthood and he married Kris, like how messed up was he. However we need people to defend the innocent, the guilty and the we don’t know, other wise what is the point of law?

You kid, but I’m the same age as Rory and found great solace when she didn’t get her dream NYT fellowship because I didn’t get into my dream PhD program.

Neither the Vogue staffers nor Jezebel staffers are really “relatable,” though. It always seems odd when Jezzie staffers try to dissociate themselves from other people who make their living blog or magazine writing. They are among some of the most privileged people on the planet, whether or not they choose to vacation…

bingo. it’s a way to poke fun at yourself, not actually self-congratulatory. it’s like ironic use of “yolo.” ex: “invested more money in my 401k today! #yolo #adulting.” it makes the everyday mundane business of being a responsible adult slightly more entertaining.

Exactly! I use it to basically mean “Holy crap I did the thing that everyone else does so easily but it took me ages to accomplish and I’m so proud even though I know it’s stupid and I’m bad at being an adult, but fuck it I did this one thing right so yay!”

The best thing about Jez lately is how progressively grumpy Madeleine Davies has been getting. I love it.

I’m not afraid of heights, per se, but I am terrified of bridges. Ever been at a dead stop on the middle of the Mackinac bridge during a 60 mile windstorm? Pants shittingly terrifying.

Gosh, I needed a little faith in humanity with my coffee today.

So the funny thing about this, is that Holly actually was poor and working class too. She went to college though—-but she was “lower middle class” I guess.

I remember when I liked Garden State when I was in my mid-teens. Reflecting on it now, I don’t necessarily dislike it, but is a cautionary example of the short shelf-life indies have. Anyway, I gotta stand up for Braff here. I’m expecting some heat, but it depresses me that we’re scoffing at people who openly express…

The word “White” refers to descendants of a whole buttload of nations and frankly even their American offspring usually keep more of their parent cultures than a lot of people on Gawker would like to understand. I’m whiter than a sheet of paper, but was raised by an intensely Irish family. My grandmother spent most of…

New Study Shows: No One Likes a Person Who’s Too Hard to Read

Excuse you but do you have any idea how difficult it is go get a job with a criminal record? Especially if you’re a POC merely brushing off the very real concern of being able to actually be and remain employed due to the criminal justice system is a legitimate concern.
