So the same agency that was able to track the menstruation of minors somehow just lost hundreds of those kids?

My brain wen to a worse place. I thought maybe they were tracking periods because they wanted to find out out when they were least fertile, and thus, less likely to get pregnant if officials raped them. I hate that I even had that thought.

That sounds awesome.  I’ll have to check it out.  There’s some sort of irony in having to pay a monthly fee in order to create a budget.  haha. 

Yeah I was thinking this as I read the article. Like - what is the author’s voice here? The title suggested ‘La Toya was right all along and maybe we should have listened and isn’t that a little bit sad’, but the content of the article is much bitchier, snipier and cutting, still basically alluding that La Toya still…

I swear, if ANY of the Trump family comments on this revelation I’ll lose it.

It sounds like the abuse happened before her mother died. 

The public labeling someone speaking about abuse and airing family secrets as “exploiting a personal matter” is why so many people stay quiet about abuse, rape and incest. Who wants to open themselves up to criticism and questions about one of the most painful periods of their life, especially when they feel they…

Being designated as a recruit is not the same thing as receiving a scholarship and thus does not require actual participation in the sport at the collegiate level. Plenty of college athletes, including those in revenue-generating programs at large schools (i.e. big time football and basketball programs) but…

Can you imagine what is going on in his head right now? He probably thought this was a great idea at the time. He might have even thought of it as something fairly harmless and “victimless” (it wasn’t). I can’t imagine how it would feel to get smacked in the face with reality that hard as a result of your own terrible…

I’m 0% defending what he did, but it’s wrong because he wasted police resources and could’ve gotten his friends wrongfully locked up, not because he’s hurting other victims.

“so unfortunate because her face betrayed her age.”

I am completely and totally against the criminalization of truancy. But I also don’t think this means she isn’t a genuine progressive. Harris was genuinely trying to fix in ill and believed it benefited students who are often under-served and overlooked. I get criticizing it. The system doesn’t work and should be…

I was a prosecutor in Upper Marlboro for around eight years, several of which were in Juvenile. I didn’t do adult truancy much - the Juvenile Chief handled them, primarily - but I handled some of them when she needed help. My time in Juvenile was the saddest in my career, watching these young people who desperately…

If Jezebel becomes the daily Blow Job for Bernie, like Gawker was in 2016; I’m out.

Honest question... how is Lyft or Uber supposed to prevent this kind of thing?

Yeah, i’m pretty sure the “real tragedy” is Michael Jackson raping children.

Apparently Florida is more transparent with it police reports and the like, so that’s another reason there are so many articles that detail Florida. That doesn’t mean it could be something specific to the place (I  think so, for one), but that was a thing that I learned recently that amplies the coverage that state…

Interesting, but not a single number in the article. What percentage? How many? Etc. . . while interesting, I don’t really have the ability to understand how large the presence of women is in defense from this article. Without the numbers the article really seems meaningless. Can we see some stats?

Because then they’ve sold you TWO shirts.

All I want is a top that doesn’t require me to wear ANOTHER top underneath so that my bra doesn’t show. Why is everything so see-through?!
