I enjoy how one of the articles promoted in the banner is about Monica Lewinsky on Last Week Tonight, talking about how painful the media pile-on was when she was a young woman. And then it seems like every other subsequent article is a pile-on of Olivia Jade, Paris Jackson, ect. Good stuff, great self-awareness…

I’m sorry you have to go through that, Tiffany. It’s not fair, but at least you had the sense to distance yourself from the family and that horrible person.
Y’know what? Say what you will about Goop being an insufferable, entitled whatever, but words have power and I can totally get how rebranding divorce can help both parties (and their kids, depending on age) remember and embrace their goal to be as civil and kind to each other as possible. Yes, it sounds like some…
So, a Trump loving guy just happens to kill a mafia crime boss while Trump has allegedly been nefariously involved with the mafia doing shady deals with them for decades all while the Mueller investigation is digging into Trump Organization business dealings.
He was her *boss*. That’s sexual harassment.
no it’s not.
Consenting adults, the blame for the marriage part goes 100% to the one that is married and cheating.
I’d allow a small % of the blame to go to the cheated on, because sometimes they brought it on themselves, but the lover did not take a vow to any magical being in the sky or even a city official.
The more…
The only part that’s wrong about what she did is how everyone treated her for it.
She wasn’t the married, elected, oath-breaking one. She just banged her boss.
I’d argue that there is very little wrong with what he did either (the doing it part. The lying was wrong ^^) but there is definitely nothing wrong with what…
Lindy WEST. Annie EASTon. I see what they did there!
Oh god. I teared up reading that right now. I bought the audio book a while back and it’s time for another listen.
You’ll love it. It’s funny and sad and powerful and very, very savvy. If you already know and love her voice, then the book will feel like it was written specifically for you, or at least that’s how I felt.
He’s not Dan Savage. But he’s also not not Dan Savage.
She says he’s not Dan Savage, and the show is fiction, the characters aren’t all based on people in her life: https://www.thecut.com/2019/03/lindy-west-profile-shrill.html
I first came to Jezebel to follow Lindy West after she left The Stranger (Seattle’s Alt-Weekly). I finally bought a copy of Shrill, I haven’t cracked it yet but I guess I better get going so I can watch this.
I wish the media would pay greater attention to the fact that the Jackson family were Jehovah’s Witnesses. After all, the JWs are a twisted, patriarchal cult that has a history of covering up child abuse. I think it would be illuminating to see the Jackson family’s sordid past discussed within that particular…
I am a very firm believer in “never meet your heroes”, and that I can enjoy performances and art created by imperfect people who are probably not very moral or good, despite their public image. I also think people who stan for celebrities they have never met is weird.

What’s most telling is that R. Kelly was present when those women were being interviewed and would cough at points to, ostensibly, remind them that he was there.
Good for Prince William for working on it! (Side note: I followed the link and would argue this characterization is unfair, sounds like he’s trying to get better, not just playing incompetent dad.)
