Wawa is just Sheetz done badly.

And with a 10 year expiration on your passport you don’t think a country or two might change their laws?

Former Comcast Technician: I can assure you, there is no such things as “Tier 1 customer.” Trouble calls come in, trouble calls get answered. Line issues are escalated to system Engineers who drive the bucket trucks. Likely, your neighborhood (or larger area) was having a problem and they fixed it.

“Is there a calculator for people who don’t live permanently in the year 1990 and do actual modern contract work as a sole-proprietor LLC?”

I guess, but it definitely panned out that the focus was put on Kirkman re: the allegations. It wasn’t just jez but it still sucks for Kirkman and my sympathies are with her. I could be misreading the tone of the article, but to me it reads like “ok we didn’t blame kirkman at first but then she was a real bitch and it…

I mean if you’re going to link anything, you should be linking to this:

I guess I don’t get how you can play the “we’re doing real journalism” card when the NY Times busted the story wide-open with 5 sources in what, a few weeks since the Weinstein stuff broke? And you’ve supposedly had it for years?

I don’t think I’m going to be crying over Kirkman’s treatment of Jezabel, sorry. Sounds like ya’ll sicced the flying monkeys on her and then said “well we didn’t tell them to bite you!” when she got mad. The fact that she screwed up the exact particulars of which monkey bit who, when, while recounting it in a heated…

People have the right to tell their own stories when they are ready to tell them. Reporting those stories without their permission, reporting them as rumors or “open secrets” is unfair to the victims and can even undermine their story when/if they’re ready to tell it. It may actually cause harm to the victims. Why…

No, as I’ve said before, if there is a rumor they should have jumped in with both feet. They should have gone to female comics and male comics. They should have talked with workers at comedy clubs and festivals. They should have made the fact that some rumors have been disavowed by women while stating that the fact…

Personally I’m uncomfortable with the “it’s our responsibility to report it” angle though. While I agree that it should be reported, Jen kirkman *really didn’t* name CK. So I don’t think it was Jezebel’s responsibility to name him in the article about her podcast. I just don’t know. If I were kirkman I’d be pissed…

I’m sorry. I like this site. But to be clear, you have been horrible to Kirkman (including linking to a rumor she specifically denied several times when writing about CK) and you did go about journalism the wrong way while the NYT did it the right way.

I dunno. When I was growing up, it was just no means no. In the last, oh, 7 years or so is when I remember enthusiastic consent being talked about. And weird shit went down when I was in college and kind of everyone was OK with it or glossed so much of it over. I think not knowing about consent, but waiting for a no…

It literally started 8 years ago, not during WWII.

Apparently Las Palmas players were wearing Spanish flag decals on their uniforms today. How that would have gone over if their had been fans in the stadium is a frightening thought experiment.

Who cares? I mean that honestly. Say Russia ran some Facebook adds to try and convince people to vote for independence. The Government fired rubber bullets and assaulted people for just voting. They threatened sedition charges against newspapers that published poll locations. They mass arrested people sympathetic to…

No, it turns out that my time in Bottle Hell was only beginning, because now my family is firmly within the clutches of Big Sports Bottle, and I cannot escape.

He started shooting people in 2007, two years before he was drafted.

So, maybe he just forgot that he killed those people then?

I didn’t get to the gender studies in college, either (community college), and that’s actually where I come in to conflict with others who have - I’m not coming at feminism from an academic angle, with discussion groups and thought exercises and scholarship. I really hope that if not the fourth wave, than the fifth,…
