Work isn't supposed to be good or bad. It just shouldn't suck absolutely. What do I know? Nothing.
The Bustle guy acquired Gawker and got it running again
Everything on there is psychobabble or celebrity gossip. That brilliant sort of editorial writing where someone parrots a conversation they had in therapy and uses a TikTok "trend"* to make it topical. An article that is ostensibly not about them but instead, about every single college-educated woman in New York and L.A. Something that died with the first pivot to video
Gawker sucked the first time, also
Writing for money online is lame and pays shit. Hence, lame people who can afford to be paid shit write for money online. Every guy is a drunk nobody or a cryptofreak or a freddie de boer. Every girl is an indoors person who buys things she sees on TikTok as a 33-year-old because she is afraid of not being cool to the people who bullied her in 2007
Gawker's masthead is mostly women
I am one of those misguided fools who thinks one can engage with different forms of bigotry "ironically"
I called the Gawker Girls lame
I was rightfully humiliated by a strong, stable, regular person who searches her employer's name on twitter to show her friends just how good a job she must be doing if some frigging dweeb guy hates her dogshit website
I defended a helpless middle-aged man from 8 teenagers who were jumping people on the 6 train. They chased me two blocks and I narrowly escaped.
