I think Agent Orange is actually proud of his many illegal accomplishments. He’s never been worried about that pesky emoluments bullshit. It’s obviously just another stupid law specifically created by the Democrats to harass him. They are just envious of his skill in the art of the side-hustle to score himself some…

I really miss the weekly Pissing Contest (it was on Friday’s I think?) with grossest story or whatever. Those dropped RIGHT when Trump was elected. Barf Bag started and seemed to take that spot. I could sure do with the escapism and interaction of the Pissing Contest type posts again. They were always really…

A lot of great commenters left before that though. I think people just kind of move on. No particular reason, except maybe for the fact that there are a lot more dudes on here lately, and many of them are annoying.

Do you notice the community participation posts have completely gone away? I think the scary story post was still there, but it used to be about monthly where a jez writer would ask for your grossest story or some other theme and everyone would contribute. The first time I got ungreyed was on a Prom themed post. I…

Hell, Poodletime got banned! It was ridiculous! We rescued her but I haven’t seen her around much and can’t blame her one bit.

Totally agree with you on “putting out articles that aren’t funny/interesting.” Jezebel used to have a voice and an angle, a sense of editorial purpose, and I feel like that has been missing lately (last year or so, maybe more?). I look back at some of the writers who have come through here—Lindy West, Erin Gloria…

Kinja is a fickle bitch lately. I’ve been having trouble getting stuff to post. Also, it’s been made harder to see the grey comments.I’ve been grey for 2 years but I never minded. I’ve had some good conversations when people actually could see my comment. Now, between the technical issues and the “second classing” me,…

It’s a vicious cycle I think. Everyone has mentioned kinja and the greys, but I think also people are sick of the trump articles and also they are putting out articles that aren’t funny, interesting or anything really. They still get a fair amount of comments on some articles, that are more interesting, I just don’t…

I think people have gotten frustrated by being in the greys eternally. Some consistent commenters were out of the greys and then got banned for petty reasons and they left. I feel like very few new people are out of the greys lately so people get bored of commenting and never getting any interaction with anyone due to…

There was a time when I was pretty sure that she was not going to be able to move past herself to get to this point. I am proud of her, more than she knows, probably more than she will ever know.

Once upon a time, Big Foot was a kid with undiagnosed mental health issues, wildly misplaced anger issues and a broken heart over the sudden loss of her father. She was a behavior issue, a safety issue and an emotional time bomb in one seething package.

WTF?!? What is wrong with people? That’s just horrible and crazy. I hope your good girl is ok and you can continue making her life wonderful.

2/10 Not Shitty

I just need to vent. I recently adopted a puppy who is such a sweetheart, but she is very timid and shy. I live in a city and immediately next to the fire department, so being shy and afraid of loud noises is not an option. We have made a lot of progress in the last month, but she still runs away from strangers.

everyone has a crappy/shadow side

nowadays, we kill all the heroes midflight.

tangential example - a lot of airline pilots are total arseholes - what matters in your interaction with if can they fly the damn plane

obvi - degrees, gray areas and all that. but great artists are often wretched as people.

Good evening, all. I’m heading off to Colombia in a couple of days. I’ll be in Bogotá this coming week and then a few days in Cartagena. I initially decided to do all of this a couple of months ago, but I’ve been struggling so much with depression that I seriously thought about cancelling the entire thing. I’ve always…

Not attacking those things, but recognizing that someone with the privileges of being wealthy and powerful is not going to be harmed by jokes. And let’s be clear here, talking about how she makes eyeliner out of lies does not constitute joking about her physical appearance, so fuck off with that.

Christ, these journalists are just falling over themselves to defend SHS, latching onto a throwaway joke about eyeshadow in their eagerness to keep their places at the Trump feeding trough.

...what the fuck are you even talking about?

People really need to do their homework before deciding that something so broad is appropriation. Certain styles and fabrics should absolutely be avoided, but if you look at old paintings of European women you will see them wearing a variety of headscarves. Women from all parts of the world throughout history have…
