I’m not sure how they haven’t murdered all their husbands because they all seem to be THE WORST.

You could say the same thing about taking out the ‘white’ part and leaving it as ‘rich straight men’ though. Multiracial women and women of color get a lot of crap from both white people and other poc over misogyny. It’s exhausting. There’s so much pressure on us to always put what hurts our men first sometimes, with…

Even for Jez, this piece is pretty petty.

This site has a bad habit of building a woman up to a certain point then once someone on staff thinks she’s too big or had enough publicity, they write a hit piece using flimsy evidence to tear her down. You mention in this piece that you don’t have the e-mails she sent while she was at HuffPost and you didn’t name…

Lauren Duca (maybe) got drunk at a work party and did some stupid shit in 2015. It (probably) led to her moving on from HuffPo.  Since then, she’s gone viral and moved up in the world, but “everybody” (the media cliques running around on the east coast) still subtweets about her stupid shit. Jezebel’s tired of the…

Lauren Duca sucks, but is this really 4,500 words of “someone online was meanie to me”?

God sometimes I’m like this whole internet thing was a huge fucking mistake.

WAIT A MINUTE, YOU MEAN WOMEN WANT SOMETHING OTHER THAN MARRIAGE?!

Not just him, but all the way up the chain of command.

Great job giving the Right what they wanted dickwads.

They seem to be the scourge everywhere. Hardcore Anarchists and full on Bolshevik style Communists love to turn up to big events and try to hijack them and start a fight with the authorities.

Dozens of anti-facists protesters, known as antifa, pounced when Joey Gibson, founder of the right-wing group Patriot Prayer, showed up with his crew. Antifa protesters beat one man with a shield and another person wearing an American flag.

I don’t really listen to country music. Haven’t heard most of their catalog. All my knowledge of their catalog came from my roommate in college, who I lost touch with. But I respected the way they handled themselves through all of that, and thought their “not ready to make nice,” video was bold, brave, and powerful.

The hammer came down on them so hard it was excruciating to watch. But I think it went deeper than their outspokenness re Bush. It was also about their lack of interest in kissing the right (of course, male) asses in Nashville. Their music reflected a spirit of rugged, American individualism that threatened…

I’ll never forget watching the Dixie Chicks burned at the stake in 2003, in the lead-up to the Iraq War. They were one of my favorite country groups– I loved their vision of American freedom. It was horrible seeing all that creativity trampled under the boot of jingoism.

What a coincidence! It just so happens that there’s virtually always something objectionable about the voices of women who speak up in public. I’m sure it has nothing to do with internalized sexism. Just like how women are criticized for every vocal trait imaginable—saying “like” too much, upspeak, vocal fry—while men…

“in a fucking “right-to-work” state. If I wasn’t expected to “make up” the time I was taking a lunch break, believe me I’d fucking take it”

^^THIS. The erosion of unions is a bunch of medieval bullshit. The 1% have *all time record profits* and productivity, yet they want more, are greedy f*cks and will ride you to…

I don’t take a lunch break because my asshole company wants me to stop the clock while I’m lunching, so a “9 to 5" is really either an “8 to 5" or “9 to 6.” I have a family and other parts of my life that I like a lot, lot more than my job, and I have a commute through some of the worst traffic in the country. I grew…
