Wholeheartedly agree. I know it was originally used by POC to describe a certain kind of racist woman, but it’s just evolved into a synonym for “bitch.” Now, everybody’s using it, including right-wingers, and I get an uncomfortable feeling that it holds so much power as an insult because people really loathe…

This is gross and irresponsible, Jezebel. It's not okay to normalize breaking quarantine for such a stupid reason, thereby potentially perpetuating the spread of covid to god knows how many people.

Are you this goddamn fucking stupid?

Multiple organizations have come out to say her sanctuary really IS doing good work, but no, we're supposed to trust the opinion of the nutjob who tried to murder her. 

I suspect law enforcement has a strong sense that he did indeed run away and is just humoring the public.

That was Good.

(and by the way, if that was his written documents, how does someone with such poor literacy skills get to be a multimillionaire?)

The apparent affinity for Joe just makes me think “This is how we got Trump.” Some people can look at a malignant narcissist and think, “Well, at least he’s honest about it,” while ignoring the countless times he’s lied and abused others for his own gain.

Did she kill her husband? Maybe, but there’s no way in hell the case against her would fly in court. Her husband’s lifestyle was highly reminiscent of a drug smuggler, and if all the details came out, that would create a wealth of reasonable doubt. On top of that, no body? No blood? No physical evidence whatsoever?…

Well, it’s hard not to misgender someone when we were never told in the doc that he is trans.

It kind of annoys me that some otherwise well-meaning people find this raging narcissist endearing. I guess they sympathize with him being gay and getting rejected by his father and just dismiss all the horrible abuse he inflicts on everyone around him.

He needs to personally demonstrate that coronavirus is nbd. Put your money where your mouth is.

Now he’s hateful and astonishingly stupid, a fine combo.

As we’ve seen before, being competent, well-prepared, and well-versed on policy does not do much to help women win.

If I were a children’s book author, I would use a cute Golden Retriever as an excuse to write about morbid shit in a heartbeat. Rock on, Kate.

It’s hilarious that Bloomberg is starting to compare Sanders to Trump. Projection at its cringiest.

I agree, and I think it’s telling that several trans people in the comment section of this article have said that these arguments are harmful. I don’t mean to presume, but I highly doubt many trans women would be happy if the presence of trans athletes ends up seriously undermining the integrity of women’s sports.

Would you agree that trans women have become more common in recent years and that, as society becomes more accepting of trans people in general, there will likely be more trans athletes competing at all levels?

It continues to frustrate me that the writers of Jezebel seem to believe there is no nuance whatsoever regarding this issue. It seems Jez’s readers recognize that athletics is an entirely different matter from any other issue of trans inclusion, yet the writers just cannot see it. 

I remember A Farewell to Arms being resoundingly hated in my high school English class.
