I mean, maybe you run too fast, but I’ve hatched a bunch of eggs through my runs. Not in NYC, though, and definitely at a pace of 6 mph max.

Given her age? What on Earth are you trying to say? Jobs may be scarce in some places, but every single person I know had a full time job by 22 (NYC) if they wanted it.

Literally sickening. I feel ill thinking about that.

Jia, I followed you and Emma here from the Hairpin. I’d read Jezebel in college, starting when it was only a year old. And at the time, I’d loved it so much - it had felt like everything I wanted to say written succinctly and wittily and with such verve. And then slowly, I started to feel like it wasn’t that anymore,…

So, I listen religiously to the “My Favorite Murder” podcast. It’s wonderful, but it has also made me convinced that in any and all situations, I may be murdered, obviously by a man. I don’t care how misandrist or sexist this makes me sound - men kill women all the time, rape us, taunt us for their own amusement. I…

His answer was legitimate? As in... Deadspin and Jezebel are different sites that hire different writers.

It’s not from the Danish Girl...

Wait wait wait - explain the last part? I have never called a cancer hotline or anything, but I get breast pain semi-regularly. Like a sharp shooting pain that I sort of knead until it goes away. I’ve never had any problems with my breasts any time I go to the gyno, but is this something that I can fix with birth…

Ew. And your defenses down there are also gross. Doesn’t matter that there was one line about Minaj in the article - it was to contextualize the DJ for audience purposes, not to discuss the particular parenthetical - which was parenthetical for a reason. You jumped on less than a sentence and in doing so totally…

A friend of mine swore up and down that Tree of Life was the best film of all time. I saw it twice. I hate it so, so much, and I REFUSE to listen to anyone who claims that you’re unintelligent if you didn’t like it. NO - it was a too-long first-novel/first-film-school presentation stylized project that got made…

Ah yes, the errant penis. I have seen more than my fair share of those (as in, more than zero).

This is literally my nightmare. People think I’m crazy for having an irrational fear that when someone picks up their dog’s shit they might then fling it at me, but I’m a born and raised New Yorker - I know you never know when someone turns out to be unbalanced. (I’m also a former case manager with individuals…

The post is basically about both. You got told off for being rude and off-topic, and you can’t see that commenting on a post to change the subject is inappropriate? So many people love to call themselves allies, and probably really mean and believe it too, and yet continue to make the conversation about them. Even the…

Sure, definitely. I’d guess in this context though that misspoke is code for “threatened” and it’s not so much “weak” but rather “embarrassed/scared.” OR she just lied to get attention and misspoke is her way of saying that. Which I’d guess is more likely because when I read that piece yesterday, I thought, why the…

Um, yes? Misspoke is definitely a word, and a word that is perfectly fine to use. It is the context that you are defining as weak, certainly not the simple word itself.

I know there can be no consensual sex between a prisoner and a guard because of the power dynamic - but in this case the dynamic was switched. Because she had dirt on him (about Nikki), she was saying she could get him fired and thrown in jail if he didn’t comply. I’d say that’s not mutual rape - that’s an instance in…

That was not vicious. Have you ever been on the internet before? Or, uh, existed in contact with other people? This is meaner, but yeah - her comment was nasty and it was followed up by a lot of agreement. Comments are meant for discourse, but as someone who works in mental health, I refuse to stand by and watch…

What a bizarre response. I called someone out for being ignorant and victim blaming, and yet I am intolerant for refusing to sing Kumbaya and pat them on the back for being brave enough to have an opinion?

Good for you. I take multiple medications daily. My doctor has given me the go ahead to drink with these meds, no concern. You have no idea what she’s taking and it is ridiculous that you believe you know better.

Uh, A) you have no idea what meds she was taking - a lot of them are FINE to mix with alcohol, especially when you discuss with a doctor, which you have no idea that she did not - unless of course you think everyone should abstain from alcohol in general. B) Must get windy up there on your high horse where you…
