I am so sad about the change to the Jezebel community   Where have the posters gone?  I would love to know how to reconnect.  SNS was a big part of my life, so many smart, kind and funny people. 

They’re starring/ungraying people: A commenter with a history of racist, misogynist, and anti-trans posts was ungrayed when he posted a long, hateful, pro-BDSM post. Literally, up until that point, he had been stalking an openly-trans commenter (he took a version of her screen-name and posted racist shit), is *still*

I’ve been commenting here for 3-4 years and I don’t think any of the original staff, certainly none from the original SNS, are here any longer. Most of them went over to NewGawker which is why the articles are 99% better (the recaps of American Song Contest justified the existence of the show, to which I only made it

Can we just stop with the salivating over ANY and EVERY white creep? Just fab off in quiet and leave the rest of us out of your puerile panting. 

I turned away during the death scene, however I could not stop watching the ass-eating scene. Big props to the knife work on the veggies, Toni, as Colin goes to town on your backside.

Thank you, but I think it’s going to be hard for a lot of, though obviously not all, DV victims to handle hearing the dissenting views of others at this particular moment in time. We as a global society have no idea as to how to manage our anger, to the point where people were accusing Will Smith of murder- the same

I’m so sorry you experienced something so horrific. It is incredible that despite dealing with that, you’re able to speak up now— and I know that people reading this are going to find something they need in your story, thank you.

I believe Amber Heard, and quite honestly I can understand a lot of her reactions. Disclosure, I was also in a mutually abusive relationship. It started out with him berating me, and verbally/mentally abusing me (what an embarrassment I was to him, even down to my southern accent, etc) but I slapped him first. I left

I did move, and it took a full decade of trying and being briefly homeless when I landed. It was also due to an incredible alignment of circumstances that even made that possible. I feel like a lot of people don’t know how much goes into an interstate move.

I think a lot of progressive/liberal messaging is just a circle jerk anyway. The message wasn’t intended for the people being screwed over in red states, it’s for people ‘in the know’ to hear, nod, and pat themselves on the back about.

Lol yeah that was where my rant was supposed to get to but I’m a mess today. 🙃 I need to log off for a bit.

I’m guessing you’ve never had to really had to endure much in the way of financial hardship, as that’s an asinine take on this issue.

I see the headline and get excited. I read the pull quote and I just ...

Yeah, unless there's a Red State Refugee program my broke ass can't move to a less-shitty state (Texan here).

I live in Texas and it’s unfortunate that I cannot star this comment more than once. When I could have moved I was younger and idealistic and had hope that things could change because Obama had been elected! And now that we cannot afford to move, and this state has been further entrenched in Republican terrorism, and

I grew up in a very red state (which I did eventually move out of as an adult), and I always hated that logic. People just boil huge geographic areas down to “blue” or “red” and forget that even in my deep red home state, like 40% of the votes were against Republicans.

While I sure don’t know who telling the truth in this case and I’m waiting for it to near it’s end before I form an opinion. But as to the UK trial, that looked kinda sketch when you find out that Justice Andrew Nicol (judge on the case) son Robert Palmer works for Talkradio(owned by the Sun). Talkraido also employs

Ignore this idiot. The twelve incidents were judged to have met the threshold on evidence submitted to have happened. They just like to pretend otherwise and only hang around to “burn the witch” as it were.

The sudden change of editorial from very pro-Heard to very pro-Depp has been faster than a boy racer coming off of a roundabout and straight into a wall and I definitely don’t put it down to the fact basically the entire staff have changed in the last 12 months or so.

Mentioning that a UK judge ruled that Depp assaulted Heard on a dozen occasions and put her life in jeopardy at least three of those times just isn’t worth Jezebel’s time, it seems. For the love of god, please remember that sometimes imperfect women are victims of domestic violence and still deserve support.
