Yeah I mean her profile is still up because it’s just a ban for Jez, not all the sites, and she has nearly 100 followers..!

I genuinely don’t. It wasn’t a name I recognized.

Yeah that was actually my initial reaction as well. Like doesn’t everyone know her? I feel like everyone knows her. And if they don’t, they should.

So chocolatechipcookiesforbreakfast was banned today. I wanted to start a thread because while I sincerely can’t imagine how difficult it is for the editors/mods to manage the influx of actual trolls around Jez, I also really wish there was some kind of system that allowed longtime community members to be given a…

Holy shit that is a lot of money. I’ve always wondered if you have that kind of money, why would you choose to live in a studio? Like get a one-bedroom - at that same price, it would still be super “luxury”!

Yes that’s what I heard! Like I saw a few headlines over the years about “luxury” condos being built, etc. And about the rental market being drastically affected. I’m glad you’re stabilized, because that kind of thing happens so suddenly. And buying in NYC sounds so daunting!

I was gonna say this, too. That comment was very telling, considering she apparently lives in Park Slope. Like is she actively trying to avoid people of color? Because that’s they only way I can see her really believing what she said.

“Plus she’s (Winfrey) a billionaire which, y’know, kind of naturally puts her class interests at odds with the other 90% of the population”

Yes. My personal tipping rules from working in the restaurant/bar industry for over a decade:

Yeah I think that might be twitter-reply-embedding issue and not a Jez issue? Not totally sure. But here’s how it should look:

I’m surprised they aren’t all wearing matching red MAGA hats a la:

Nope, it’s not really an intern photo. See how white everything is? That’s a Tide ad.

Basically if you click through to see “pending” comments, you can only see the first five responses in every thread (the “show more” button doesn’t appear). If you stay in the “community” comments section, it lets you see the whole thread, but with none of the greys.

Thanks for mentioning this case, was looking for it in the comments. Diallo, who was approached by four yelling plainclothes officers, likely thought he was being robbed, and tried to give his wallet to the four yelling men aiming guns at him. The officers who murdered him were of course acquitted of any crime. Almost…

I mean the #1 question I would ask myself before deciding whether to kill as many of my peers as possible is definitely “but will the guns both fit and be neatly concealed in my school-issued backpack?” I would just hate getting written up for breaking an important rule like that.

YES I’ve had this problem for weeks - it only happens if you go under “pending.” Under “community” it lets me see the whole thread. So it’s basically a choice between seeing more than five comments in a thread or seeing only five comments per thread including the greys. If you comment after the fifth comment as a…

A new one just popped up today: https://kinja.com/1111110/discussions

I think at minimum, the artist alone makes 10% from the sales of a song (the rest goes to the record company I guess?). We Can’t Stop apparently sold over 3 million copies. At $1 per song/download, $3 million x 10% = $300,000.

Let me recommend the book Female Masculinty by Judith Halberstam, which can definitely shine some light on those questions for you.

An EPIC tantrum where she alleges discrimination using her white people logic:
