But you don’t think the Green Wave would approve of the use of their symbols for this cause? Did you contact them to ask? This point is extremely pedantic. 

The attention grabbing symbols they’re using at their protests aren’t nuanced enough, you say? They’re protesting in major media markets where they can more easily recruit people to show up instead of smaller ones you say? They disagree on strategy with groups you favor more but not on any goals you say? Well, to hell…

Was this article necessary?

We went through that here in the States. People were graded like produce or animals (quadroon, octaroon, etc.). Very painful, very dehumanizing. I think we’d rather not go back to that.

There are plenty of people who identify as biracial, mixed, mestizo, Creole etc. in the States. But descendants of American slavery have a common culture and history that people across West Africa do not. As racial minorities in the U.S., there are advantages to organizing under the “Black” umbrella for political and…

The same discourse has not repeated itself, despite a complete lack of content warnings.

This sounds like an excellent book, but it seems a little disingenuous to have this conversation on Jezebel without acknowledging Jezebel’s history with White Feminism, choice feminism, and the exact sort of Sex and the City sexually liberated feminist perspective that the author critiques.

So,

I mean. You’re kind of burying the lede here. His wife was NOT frantic, and she believed he would never hurt them.

The likelihood that talcum powder is related to ovarian cancer is so close to zero as to not be observably different. The claim is it only affects the ovaries and not any other part of the body it is directly applied to or might encounter on the way to the ovaries.

Yoshi-P addressed this in a post this morning. It came down to that because of the shortage, even throwing more money at this issue isn’t really a possibility because it’s such an issue for everyone. They already did a small upgrade to NA servers earlier in the year, so things could be worse, but it’ll probably be a…

Kinja’s not any better. There’s no mechanism to report or block followers, and my attempts to get admins to clear out the garbage went nowhere. I’m fortunate that it’s just spam in my follows and not harassment, but it could easily be the latter and there would be no recourse.

I don’t see why it’s a problem for a study to confirm and quantify a phenomenon that we already know is real. We all know that society values women's thinness over men's. This study confirms that it holds true among heterosexual marriages as well. Just because the phenomenon being described is gross, that doesn't mean…

Wish there was a way to guest op these blog posts. There’s a lot to be mad about, but disparaging a study without actually reading or understanding it just creates confusion around academic inquiry for folks who don’t or can’t read scholarly articles and dissect the methodology and results... :-/

The Gates Foundation and other anti-Malaria groups have HALVED the annual death-toll from Malaria since 2000. These groups are currently saving about 400,000 people a year and climbing.

Yeah, not knowing what the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation is, is not something to brag about. It’s one of the best charities in the world. They’ve done more the near eradication of malaria than any government or charity in the world.

This. Whatever he’s like personally, his foundation - which, Jesus, Jezebel, do some research before you casually dismiss the Gates Foundation - has done an incredible amount to transform living conditions in the developing world.

I think you underestimate just how little the video game world has truly progressed in the last 20 years. 

Preventive Vet has a short checklist to help you select safe toys to try out.

As dietician Jamie Nadeau recently pointed out—on TikTok, where else?—1,200 calories a day is not enough to sustain an adult human, even a delicate little female.
