Lucky Breaks
From just about any way you look at it, the three years I’ve spent at Jezebel and the six years I’ve spent at Gawker Media have been a continuous series of calamities ranging from the minor to the severe.

What Should We Do About Anthony Weiner?
Disgraced politician Anthony Weiner reportedly cried in court today as he pled guilty for sexting a 15-year-old girl in 2016. He’ll now likely have to register as a sex offender, another line on a once-promising resume that also includes “volunteer fucker-upper of the 2016 election.” → Read More

Welcome to Jezebel's Senior Week
This week marks Gawker Media’s final few days as an independently owned media company. Next week Jezebel, along with the other sites in this fine network, will be sold at auction; after that, we’ll continue to publish under a new owner. The sale shouldn’t affect you much one way or the other as a reader, but we’re still going to take advantage of the situation to rock the boat and make a mess.… → Read More

Report: Jezebel to Continue Blogging
Hi there. You may have read in the news today that Gawker Media, which owns Jezebel, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

We’ll continue blogging here every day with the same, excellent staff, and we hope you’ll continue reading and commenting here every day. → Read More

Trying
In the final few weeks of what was, for me, a pretty bad year, a phrase has hung around in my head. I say it to myself sometimes: “Babe. Neither of us r the same.” It’s a seven-word excerpt from a Twitter story that captivated the internet for a few days this fall, and it’s only as deep as you want it to be. About six-and-a-half months ago, my cousin and I were crushed between the passenger side… → Read More
