I’ll miss Jezebel. I’ve been on it since 2009.

Wow. That just hit me like a punch in the throat. Devastated for the staff, their families, and these who genuinely engaged with the site over the years. I’ve been commenting for about ten years now. Jezebel has been part of my daily online life for a decade. Ugh.
The actors strike ends (pending a vote) and Jez gets shut down for good. Thanks for the memories Jez.
Oh great, just give this overly-Conservative court a reason to revisit and reverse Bostock now that Ginsburg is gone. Because that ended so well for Roe.
“Nicole Blackmon—who says she suffered “physical and emotional torture” from being forced to carry a nonviable pregnancy for months—doesn’t have standing to sue because she’s since had her tubes tied”
Republicans: “BANS DON’T WORK, HANDS OFF MY GUNS!”
Also Republicans: Ban Drag Queen, Ban Books, Ban Islam, Ban Gay Marriage, Ban Abortion, Ban Climate Change Legislation, Ban Gender Affirming Care, Ban Free School Lunches, Ban Student Loan Forgiveness, Ban Aide to Ukraine.....
We tired of these people yet?
Vote Blue…
Susan, one more detail about Youngkin. He’s intentionally waiting until after the state elections next month to announce whether or not he’ll run for president. If the GOP wins both chambers, he will use that to push anti-abortion bills AND take that crazy shit to the national level.
I live in Virginia. In the short time he has been in office, youngkin has erased all evidence of the history of the enslaved in the governor’s mansion and changed a commemorative room into a yoga studio. He won on antiwoke and anti critical race theory in schools where of course there was none taught. His democratic op…
Republicans are monstrous, lying fascists. A degenerate party of con men, authoritarians, sadists and the dupes and rubes that love them.
The United States is essentially a developing country nested inside a wealthy country. Or more appropriately, a wealthy country nested inside a developing one. Even thinking of us as one country at this point feels so... antiquated. It’s citizens of a wealthy country and a developing country sharing the same…
Those people convicted of forcibly and violently invading a clinic to impose their religious will on others (terrorism) should have been met with a crow bar to the face. But I’d take 11 years in prison for each of them as a substitute.
HIPAA privacy rules are meant to protect individually identifiable health information. Last I checked Ohio had more than one ten year old.
This is really taxing my 70-year-old mother’s lifelong, unwavering faith in the Catholic church, and I feel so bad for her. Despite being pro-choice, she has spent her whole life actively avoiding having to grapple with the way that the Catholic church treats women. This is a woman who donates a few thousand dollars…
If 18 years of child support isn’t enough to scare men, I don’t think 18 years and 9 months will be any more effective.
I’m standing here on my front porch. This porch kind of became famous through the governor’s run and became famous when I was speaking on nonsense.
Willing to die for his assault weapon...okay you fucking dip shit. Not gonna lie, a HUGE part of me wishes the police were going to go door to door taking away assault rifles.
The problem is that most people aren’t anti-abortion fanatics. Even people I know that wouldn’t personally consider having an abortion still think it should be freely accessible for others. This is going to keep happening because the people that actually want abortion outlawed are just a vocal minority.
Yeah, I think the more clearly they explain their position, the more people reject it. Republicans seem to do best when they lie about their positions.
JFC. It’s time to put this to bed once and for all. There is no such thing as a “religious employer”. And YOUR personal beliefs do not give you permission to trample the rights of other people in any way, shape or form.
