This is the first, and I’m guessing last, time I have ever said to myself, “Good for you, Shia Labeouf!”

My county (Montgomery County in MD) is staying a sanctuary city no matter what and I’m so damn proud of the people representing me right now. I will say it’s a wealthier county so it won’t be hurt as much as some others from the lack of federal funding.

The churches are now going to have to become literal refuges, again. I know the Catholics are ready, now everyone else has to get their asses in gear.

Did you see the interview with Masha Gessen on Samantha Bee’s show? Gessen was imputing some fairly arcane motivations to Trump, and Samantha Bee basically wondered whether he was intelligent enough to devise such advance plans.

You’re really giving him a lot of credit by suggesting anything he’s doing is part of anything even remotely resembling a plan.

Trump’s plan is to tie us up all in court for the next four years? So nothing proactive can be accomplished? How many arbitrary Executive Orders have been mandated?

That article doesn’t cover every detail despite being informative. Mandy was a major content editor at the time and helped get the piece published on xo. She was involved in a way among others. They do mention Mandy appeared on tv in a segment related and used the opportunity to promote her and Pat. She was…

I am so sorry that happened to you when you were starting out. Thanks for sharing your experience. I have friends with very similar stories. Awful, exploitative site. Glad you overcame.

Thank you for sharing your experience and I’m so sorry you got stiffed. I have a few friends who wrote great pieces beyond the site’s caliber as well in recent years who got stiffed too. Thatd beyond crap.

Holy shit Maaaaaark

There was a really great piece about someone being hit by a bus once. Forget who wrote it, but it was really good!

Nearly forgot my fave Mandy moment! When she came after 9-year-old Quvenzhané Wallis because she would have LOVED to have been called a c*nt by the Onion! She’s a real prize that one! 

Yeah, I have the new disqus bookmarked ;) I commented VERY rarely but seems like the good ones stuck around there. She’s very worthy of hatred, IMO. Killing dogs and mocking rape and DV victims is pretty lowest of the low. To pretend that she was above it all during her time at xo now is a laugh.

I hate her.

Killed a dog for her awful SO’s sake. She could’ve re-homed the dog, BUT SHE KILLED HIM. (ETA: Also, take good care of Ser Pounce. The Realm needs him!)

I am glad it is going. I always thought it was unfair that garbage like xoJane (see: this article) survived while the beauty that was The Toast (see: one commenter donated a kidney to another) did not.

Exactly. Sure is easy to be on her high horse now but a lot of this shit is on her. She’s hugely culpable for a lot of what she’s now decrying. Plus she shits on other women professionally with her dickhead “comedian” husband. She was all over Cumia’s domestic violence victim calling her a slut and liar.

Yeah, Stadtmiller’s comment were rich considering that she was a huge part of everything that was wrong with xoJane and she directly benefitted from it and still does as she has failed upward into the nymagCut.

Okay so only explanation for the complete snub of Amy Adams in Arrival is because her votes were split between Nocturnal Animals and Arrival, right? Because I will not stand for this if they just didn’t vote for her.

Which 2016 movie insulted jazz more?
