How the fuck is David Hogg “selling his personal brand”? This isn’t Kim Kardashian advertising crap on her Twitter feed or Alex Jones hawking doomsday crap on his TV show. This guy is saying “don’t buy guns” and “don’t invest in gun companies” and holding politicians to the fire for accepting donations from the NRA.

“launch his personal brand”

What are you talking about? His brand of “let’s make it a lot harder for people to walk into a school and murder 17 people”? Cuz if that is a personal brand, then it is also mine.

His personal brand of “massive gun violence survivor doing whatever he can to stop it in the future” ... is one I’m fine with him promoting. You’re a cynical nightmare if you think he’s doing this for himself.

Meanwhile, us South Asian people are out here in whatever old clothes feel most comfortable asking, “yes, what even is yoga anymore?”

Someone who was ACTUALLY THIS SCARED of Donald Trump would find a way in a 51/49 senate to fuck his, and by extension his enabling party’s, bizness up. That Flake is unwilling to do this in any meaningful way means that he is just grandstanding for future historians. Thanks alot buddy, but America could use your help,

fuck “class”. she’s trying to make real change in the industry. expecting women to be “classy” while they work hard at things is just another way of policing them.

Megan Kelley is making 20 million dollars?

Thank you for writing this and the When Can I say I’ll be Alone Forever article! People are continually sold the lie that if they just try A,B,C then everything will fall into place and they’ll meet someone. The reality is too scary. It’s hard, love is fucking mean. And really great people sometimes never partner up,

I am so tired. I feel like I’ve been shouting into the void for years that a lot of these cultural touchstones for cool, hip youth (Vice, American Apparel, etc) are the same old toxic and misogynistic tropes wrapped up in a new aesthetic. I’m tired of women’s bodies being commodified and used to reinforce the money

Are you serious?

Just reverse the genders and ask yourself how this story by a guy would be reviewed by jezebel

Definitely. They are part of the Urban Outfitters umbrella, which excels in having frequent foot-in-mouth moments over bigoted, puerile designs.

Agreed. Work parties suck. Get a catered lunch if you must, but don’t have a goddamn work party.

HR. They only do something once the board decides the financial risk of sweeping complaints under the rug is greater than the cost of firing a harasser. HR people do whatever they are told to do, and write fine memos about commitment to respect and safety

If they fired people for being horrible interviewers Matt Lauer would have been out years ago.

Shout-out to Ann Curry!!! I hope you are celebrating wherever you are, hon.

I’m fine with bad people going down and I think that the celebrity culture we have been building was very unhealthy to begin with. Bring it on! I’m down with idealisation meeting reality. The more people understand that we are all mere humans, regardless of profession, the more likely it is that we will all learn and

I have a few childhood friend’s wives and husband’s cousins ( I don’t think my actual friends) who wear these fugly outfits. I have seen them get really fucking excited over limited addition print leggings. It’s super bizarre to me that they don’t immediately recognize that these are the exact same matching outfit

My SIL sells this garbage. My wife and I refer to it as “clothes for the suburban mom who has given up.”
