I wonder if the appeal of this horrible writer and her even more horrible books is that when someone reads them they are genuinely able to think, “I could be a writer, too.” 

It would have been nice if Jenna Bush acknowledged that ectopic pregnancies have to be terminated which is also called an abortion, and that abortion probably saved her from bleeding to death because it kept her Fallopian tube from rupturing. She had an opportunity to educate the Faux News crowd with real life real…

There aren’t many, if any, men who have firsthand memories of all male workplaces (like say newsrooms or comedy clubs) but that doesn’t seem to have stopped an awful lot of men from trying to harrass women out of their careers.

This isn’t about sex. They could watch porn on their computers or phones for that. This is about harassing women who have dared to enter what is considered a male space. This is intimidation and intended to humiliate and bully women. 

George was cuter at that age, but I think Louis has the kind of baby face that will turn into a handsome adult. 20 years from now, Louis will likely be the better looking brother. Although I think both will be handsome. 

Other Daughter is either gleeful at being relatively anonymous or seething with jealousy that she’s still just Other Daughter. And I still remain doubtful that any of these rich white people will face any serious consequences beyond a fine that they can easily afford to pay. Then the inevitable forgiveness PR campaign…

I agree. When two non-related adults share a house or apartment, no one bats an eye. Let an adult child live with a parent and suddenly it’s weird. As long as they each have their group of friends and aren’t each other’s sole social network, it’s fine. If my widowed mother and I had to live together there would be a…

I generally just ask people where and what they ate because for me the food is generally the best part of any vacation. Also, for pure relaxation, staying home and doing nothing is the best vacation. I know not everyone can allow themselves to do nothing when they are in their own home, but I am NOT one of those…

I think so, too. A quick guilty plea would have put this to bed fairly quickly and quietly. 

Laughlin and her husband are betting a LOT on being white and wealthy. Sadly, it is probably a fairly safe bet. Not to mention that White Woman Tears are easily weaponized and they’ll have three crying women testifying. Those tears are further enhanced by the fact that they are all attractive. I don’t expect much…

Trump does remind me of the divorced dad of a schoolmate I have known since we were five. He tormented her mother until she left him. Then he pulled every dirty trick in the book to gain custody of my schoolmate. One such trick was painting the mother as an alcoholic (and after years with him she probably was) although…

Good for Anna! 

If only these people who hate abortions so much that they are willing to kill women would take a fraction of that energy and direct it toward making sure all women and men had access to free birth control. But it really isn’t about preventing abortions, is it? 

I’m white so I want to ask all the black and Latina and Asian readers on Jezebel, is it my imagination or are all these white YouTube girls making themselves up to look bi-racial? I’m sure in their mind they are trying to look “Kardashian/Jenner” but it seems super offensive to me. It almost crosses into blackface…

I do agree that an actual prison sentence in a real prison would be an actual punishment for a wealthy person in a way that fines are not. Fines mean nothing to these people. Trouble is even when rich people go to jail, it’s a rich person’s version of a jail. Now if I thought any of these people would end up in a…

This was actually a thing you could do in the Medieval past. I’m not sure when it was outlawed, but a rich person could hire a poor person to serve his jail time and/or military service, and I think even confess to his sins. I think part of Martin Luther’s movement was based around stopping this. Again, I’m not sure…

This administration has no bottom, no depths to which it will not sink. And the Senate Republicans, knowing there is a very good chance they’ll be voted out of power there, too, are stacking the courts with their loathsome judges as fast as they can. Those judges will not only rubber stamp the cruel immigration…

I am a lot more superstitious than I am proud of. As a result, I would NEVER in a million years use one of those carts to shop with as long as I am able bodied, even at four o’clock in the morning. I would fear instant Karmic retribution from the universe. I know some people who think it’s fun to go to Walmart at 2 am…

Oh, Florida, you’ll bury us all.

I agree that it would be pointless for her to be in prison, but there are a LOT of people pointlessly in jail right now for non-violent crimes simply because they can’t pay their bail. And these people stay in jail, sometimes for YEARS, simply because they’ve been arrested and charged with a crime - not because…
