Nursing school sucks. That is all.

Hi guys, read this all the time, but first ever time commenting.

Does anyone know about the New York civil service hiring process for office of mental health

Hi Jezebel readers! With all the stories of harassment in the news over the past few weeks, I wanted to ask for some opinions. Let’s say a man has harassed women in the past, but nowhere near the level of someone like Harvey Weinstein or Roy Moore. However, this man has also apologized to these women, and by

This is going to be a bummer, sorry, but I need help.

There are many other characters that are/could have been bigger names that would draw a new viewership in.

You should be directing this at Dunham, not Flow Bee. Flow Bee didn’t make Dunham show her ass here, nor did they make Weinstein attack Lupita.

Maura should have been played by a transwoman from the get-go. I love Transparent, but come on. There are PLENTY of talented transwomen who could have played this role. I usually would feel put off for subbing out an actress part way through a role (Becky on Roseanne, anybody?) but I think Maura’s character is so

Am I the only one who is not at all surprised by this? Jeffrey Tambor has always given me the creeps and this seems like something he absolutely would do.

That part of his statement got to me, too. It was like he thought that was some sort of revelatory and exculpatory statement. Uh, OK, dude. We hear this shit all the time from predators. Of course they don’t think they’re predators. They just think they’re entitled to women, or entitled to exercise power over someone

Actress Trace Lysette has accused Jeffrey Tambor of sexual harassment, for lack of a better word for what to call a man rubbing his boner on you.

No, it’s not wrong of you. It’s an extremely valid concern since crimes against trans women are not taken as seriously by law enforcement and not covered as widely by the media. It’s already an uphill battle to get society to “care” about the welfare of the trans population, and in this case you have to do so at the

Is it wrong/cynical of me to be concerned that this won’t be treated with the same concern as some of the other allegations against famous men because the women are trans and thus viewed as less-than? Like, maybe it’s just residual edginess from reading about human trash-pile Lena Dunham choosing to believe her

Maura’s selfishness and, at time, downright unlikability is an important aspect of the show, but yeah...I wouldn’t miss her if they wrote her off and carried on. Obviously I like many people would have vastly preferred for her character to have been portrayed by a trans woman in the first place but, since this is

Men (and all people in a position to harass): you are not in a position to say if you are a predator or not. Those on the receiving end of your actions are the ones who get to define if you are a predator or not. GET IT TOGETHER.

Yeah, it’s totally black women’s fault for promoting hostility. Totally not systematic racism by white feminists.

So nice it had to be said thrice! :)

this is the best joke of the day.

Saying I went to Safeway when I meant Giant is misspeaking. Jokingly asking a group of people who died when you walk into a room because they all look like they lost their best friend and learning someone DID actually die is having a social miscue. Shredding an original document when I meant to shred the copy is a

Speechless.
