Gawker Media is facing internal revolt after its women's site Jezebel revealed on Monday that the company has failed to address a series of violent, rape-themed images that have been directed to its staff and readers. In the post , which was titled "We Have a Rape Gif Problem and Gawker Media Won't Do Anything About It" and which was credited to the entire Jezebel team, the site's staff wrote that "an individual or individuals has been using anonymous, untraceable burner accounts to post gifs of violent pornography in the discussion section of stories on Jezebel" for months. The staff added that Gawker executives have refused to block any IP addresses and have dragged their feet on taking other action to stem the flow of disturbing content from appearing in the Jezebel comments section. Gawker's CEO, Nick Denton, has long placed an emphasis on making comments sections a high-profile, free-flowing part of his websites. But the Jezebel staff accused him of getting the balance wrong, writing, "In refusing to address the problem, Gawker's leadership is prioritizing theoretical anonymous tipsters over a very real and immediate threat to the mental health of Jezebel's staff and readers. The Huffington Post recently moved from a homegrown, moderated commenting system to the Facebook commenting platform. Jezebel's post also highlighted, yet again, the kinds of threats women on the Internet can face merely for engaging in public discourse.

By Thursday, I'd feel like he disappeared. It's typical to not hear from him for weeks. Mormons are one of the few remaining groups with healthy women. Thank you for this. Honestly I'd let things keep going. Our communication is almost gone to none, he needs a lot a lot of alone time to achieve his career while i am really worried that how much longer i can live like this!!. I've told her that but maybe she doesn't believe me. It is coming close to the time where I will be preparing for the MCAT and it is going to get a lot more hectic than it has been.
There will, in fact, still be churches besides our own. I think she sounds great but she won't be able to not bring it up. Word to the wise, wait a day or two. What you are potentially choosing is certainly not the easiest path. Doesn't leave many options here though but better than constantly having them push the church on you until you either give in and convert or break up. Long story short, everyone is dead on. He gave me a very clear answer that this was right.
