“Start on your well-being journey stay the fuck away from Massage Envy” is some common sense well-being wisdom posited by the national spa franchise Massage Envy. In an exhaustive report which reflects what amounts to the premiere strip mall employer of sex offenders, Buzzfeed News’s Katie Baker reveals that over 180…
On Wednesday morning, BuzzFeed published a thinkpiece publicly revealing the fleeting existence of a list that began circulating among women in the media Wednesday afternoon, and was gone by Wednesday evening (a copy seemed to reappear late Thursday afternoon). Put briefly, the list, called Shitty Media Men, had…
On December 24, 2016, a 16-year-old named Reagan tweeted something no teen had ever tweeted before (probably): she had decorated an entire bible for her boyfriend, using excellent teen handwriting and brightly colored illustrations. The tweet begat faves; the faves begat retweets. The faves and retweets begat a bunch…
It’s very easy to put yourself in a cozy position on the couch, flip your cable box to HGTV, and waste one to 10 hours watching nothing but HGTV’s Fixer Upper. The show, hosted by real-life couple/business partners Chip and Joanna Gaines, is a wonderfully structured and comfortingly repetitive bit of home improvement…
On Wednesday afternoon, Jonah Peretti, the founder and CEO of BuzzFeed tweeted the above series of words. Why he did that is unclear to me, and to everyone else.
I know you will find this hard to believe, but shaved bear Donald Trump, still dealing with the fallout of a tape of him being gross about women, is facing more allegations of being gross about teenage girls. Four former Miss Teen USA contestants told Buzzfeed News they remember Trump strolling into the dressing room…
At the start of the Republican National Convention—the ceremony in which Republican leadership will officially declare Donald Trump, the contents of a dumpster behind a Roll N Roaster, as their nominee—men are beginning to feeling introspective about their complicity in Trump’s rise.
It’s honesty week at Gawker Media, and if there’s one thing we’ve learned here, it’s this: Never forget not to not NOT judge a book by its cover. Inspired by BuzzFeed, we’ve put together a list of the most wrong and cruel things people think based on our appearances.
Last year, Sophia Vergara’s former fiancé, Nick Loeb, garnered media attention (including a controversial opinion piece in the New York Times) when he sued the actress over two embryos the couple had fertilized during their relationship. The lawsuit, which was not particularly unusual, but notable because it involved…
I have never had a period. Not by choice, mind you, but because I am a man without a uterus who doesn’t menstruate. I know the fundamentals—the top-level biological functions, the commonly-used products meant to contain the flow—but not much more. When friends and coworkers discuss the details of their periods, I have…
Former Breitbart News reporter Michelle Fields has been run out of her apartment after BuzzFeed and Fox News apparently accidentally published her personal information in unredacted copies of Corey Lewandowski’s police report.
On March 6, Buzzfeed published a news report on Uber revealing that the car share service had received five rape claims and 170 claims of sexual assault between December 2012 and August 2015. Uber quickly, and vehemently, refuted this claim. But now they admit that the grounds for their rebuttal were false because,…
Every once in a while, BuzzFeed releases an LGBT-centric video that just oozes with sticky pink tolerance for the queer community. They’re about all kinds of things—coming out, misgendering, marriage, and LGBT refugees—and are generally well-intentioned and well-made. And though I might think videos like this one,…
A recent poll conducted by BuzzFeed reveals that not enough people are swapping nude photos.

In March of this year, the most popular free STD clinic in New York City was shut down. BuzzFeed reports it was the third closing of a major NYC clinic in five years, and one of the many “discreet changes” to public health services made since 2010. Turns out, when you spends less money on STD prevention, STD rates go…
My first email address was ernest1960@aol.com. It was my dad’s account and I spent a great deal of my time at 13 looking at gay pornography and then chatting with teenage girls to make up for it. The first email I sent was likely to a girl who went by JessyM13 and it was “this is my email address. Do you have an email…
BuzzFeed tweeted out this little nugget of internet content and it sure has me mighty confused. For some reason, they decided to post side-by-side pictures of Lil Kim and Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande. The problem is that they left one important thing out.
In this week’s Shade Court, we have a rapper feuding with a Kardashian, a beauty editor giving her fond buh-bye, and E! Online continuing to troll me with their misuse of English.
