I’m assuming this was the winner of this year’s Jezebel Scary Stories Contest...

Squat and crunch endlessly with her pink kettlebell and yoga ball. These are fun, right? Exercise is self-care, especially when the equipment is whimsical. Keep squatting and crunching until your body aches but your mind is quiet.

For real those are the shoes you use in the shower in jail though

I’m on the west coast and Jeopardy has always been first. As soon as the contestants on Jeopardy start shaking hands at the end, it’s a scramble to change the channel before Pat and Vanna make their entrance.

It’s funny because I life in a Jeopardy-first state (New York) and I’m always like WHY WOULD ANYONE SHOW WHEEL FIRST??

I saw NK close up last year (humble brag) and she was very beautiful. She just had this glow of rich, beautiful uncanny about her- probably heightened by being surrounded by us normal-looking, fugly people. 

Agreed! This is another part of why I’m not gonna jump on the Hate Hillary train, because I’m certain Chelsea will not let her go too far down any shitty path like this.

This is classic TERF/transphobe tactics: find the most extreme possible example, get someone who is casually ok with trans folks to go along with it, and then try to portray them as agreeing with you. Hillary Clinton has actually worked to measurably improve trans lies, I’m willing to give her the benefit of the doubt…

I agree. I think it's a lot better to say "I'm still learning" than to just spout off at the mouth.

I don’t see what the issue is here. This is a new subject for many people, something they’ve never been exposed to before or thought much about. And frankly, it is an uncomfortable topic for many, especially older folks. I say it’s a good thing for those who are confused or don’t feel fully confident in their ideas…

My hatred of Camille Paglia stems from the fact that her arguments are so rhetorically weak and yet she has the reputation she has. I honestly think (hope?) if she’d been born 30 years later, she’d be a laughingstock. I remember having to read an essay in undergrad in which she compared getting date raped while drunk…

Oh, thank goodness. I’m glad this portion of Bloom’s character is receiving mention. I was incensed to read the news first in New York Magazine and nary a mention of the allegations [multiple, not just Wolf]. They seemed more miffed that Bloom dismissed Harry Potter and generally anything new than they did about his…

Camille Paglia

I remember Paglia’s Salon column, only inasmuch as every single one made me roll my eyes a thousand times. I don’t think I’ve ever read anything by them ever that didn’t seem like it was explicitly designed to be as “provocative” as possible. 

I was surprised to see Patagonia on the list, too. Same with L.L. Bean.

Not sure about lululemon, but Patagonia is supposedly all about corporate responsibility and fair labor practices. It will be interesting to see whether they continue doing business with this factory

I found out yesterday that I passed the bar exam.

I love the black kittens! Like having a tiny panther in your home!

I believe it was in an article about Little that I read about one of his victims having been found drug into the woods, with her pantyhose and girdle pulled to her knees and the coroner attributed her death to natural causes. Fuck that dude and all the cops and everyone else that did not investigate that crime.

Thank you for this, Stassa. I made a similar comment under a story a few days ago, and I watched the 60 minutes segment last night. I had a similar reaction. I was uncomfortable with the framing of both the Texas Ranger and of Little. When he spoke in the interviews, it’s clear he’s not a genius, nor did he come…
