"Now, at the height of her power as an artist and businessperson in full ownership of her art, the woman who blurred fans into friends can’t control the gay universe they’ve created in her image..." - Caitlin Cruz

"It's unclear what there is to be learned from Depp v. Heard. That the internet can be vicious, sexist, and terribly stupid because people can be vicious, sexist, and terribly stupid? No shit." review by Audra Heinrichs (she/her): jezebel.com/depp-v-heard-n…

Frankly, all you really need to know about Depp v. Heard is that N*ck Viall's trial commentary is featured more than once. But if you're curious, here are my thoughts on the new Netflix limited serious for Jezebel:

With Laura’s departure, there are just 9 underpaid, overworked Jezebel staffers left to cover issues like abortion, LGBTQ rights, and feminism writ large. Traffic goals and output requirements have not let up. x.com/LEBassett/stat…

“If you feel icky about it, you can feel icky about it… But that doesn’t mean you have to be mad at someone else." A maddening story from Kylie Cheung about Title IX admins downplaying women's sexual assault claims...because they feel bad for the guy. jezebel.com/college-title-…

One survivor described “himpathy” as a reaction to girls failing to just be girls: “There’s this puritanical aspect of it that tells us ‘good girls forgive’—that if you are filing complaints against him, you’re not a good girl,” she told Kylie Cheung jezebel.com/college-title-…

BREAKING: A Nebraska judge sentenced a woman to two years in prison after she bought abortion pills for her teen daughter and helped bury fetal remains in early 2022. Self-managed abortion isn't illegal there, but the case shows a desire to target helpers jezebel.com/nebraska-abort…

Male fight clubs: gross But women's fight clubs? Much cooler. As one source told Audra Heinrichs (she/her), "[Women] do it because they’re seeking a strength—a physical strength, but also a strength of ego that you can protect yourself and you’re worth protecting." jezebel.com/women-fight-cl…

NEW for Jezebel: Fight clubs for the girlies, gays + theys are so much more than throwing fists. They're performance art and a political response and proof positive of strength--both physical and psychological. But more than anything, they're a place to go when everything sucks.

NEW: The Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) has faced criticism from advocates who say Republican politicians could weaponize it to target LGBTQ content. But ACLU EFF and Fight for the Future told me state AGs could also use it to censor info about abortion.

Jezebel died because G/O mismanaged them but also because there is an entire industry dedicated to making sure brands don't advertise on articles that make people sad or angry as defined by black box algorithms 404media.co/advertisers-do…

Palestinian Americans spoke with me about working while mourning death on an unfathomable scale. My first article for Guardian US theguardian.com/world/2023/nov…

“Am I enabling – with my tax dollars and my career and my contributions – the dispossession of Palestinians and worse?” Palestinian Americans talked to Lorena O'Neil about trying to work for the US govt and US corporations while grieving immense loss theguardian.com/world/2023/nov…
