    Why has their been so much turn over lately? I'm guessing no one would actually answer that question. However, it feels very disconcerting to me.

      Not gonna lie, I wonder if it has to do with the leadership change. A staffer here was quoted "anonymously" but it makes me wonder if she was speaking for more than just herself... http://www.capitalnewyork.com/article/media/…

      That's what I've been thinking. So do we hate the new editor in chief now, or...? Cause Lindy is gone now, and I am not ok. And everyone else is leaving, too. If Erin leaves AGAIN, I don't know what I'm going to do with myself.

    Callie, you are one of the funniest, brightest people I know. Your work added so much to the site and I am really bummed that we won't have you around anymore. I don't know who I can talk to about Tish or mpreg now and, tbh, I feel so lost.

    I will miss you, but...

      I mean, I am also into mpreg. I'll volunteer as a lesser tribute.

    WHAT?! CALLIE NOOOOOOOOOOOO.

    I live for your Dirtbags. They get me started in the morning. No matter what shit I know I'm going to face each day, your hilarious writing make me laugh, and laughing helps me feel like everything is going to be okay. I am genuinely sad about this. I will definitely follow your career at Vice but... but... :( :( :(

    If Dodai leaves next my head might explode.

      GOD I KNOW. I FEEL BAD FOR EVEN SAYING IT NOW.

      I was just so overcome by emotion... but now I am panicked that I have jinxed it into being. If it does happen... you all can hold me personally responsible :( :( :(

    Callie, I will miss you so much!!! You are one of my favorite writers ever and I look forward to reading Vice on a regular basis because you and Tracie are over there. Thank you for being so awesome and for laughing at all my dumb jokes over Gchat. Your dirtbags were always my inspiration for Saturday dirtbags.

    Ms. Cleo also wanted to say goodbye. She wishes that she could hang out with your buns in real time, but this will have to do for now.

    ::cries sadly at computer:: (Only partially because Ms. Cleo scratched me for making her sit by the computer.)

    EDIT: Those are Callie's bunnies on the screen.

    If you guys keep doing this I might have to start reading Vice, and I really don't want to do that.

    Callie, I'll miss you dearly, and I'll never forget that time you freelanced for The Hairpin.

      Who will give me urgent bunny dispatches and crack me up with the quippy Shakespearean references in Dirtbag each morning? I will miss your hilarious story-telling and wonderful fashionista outfits that I could never pull off. May you stare longingly into the faces of your new Vice co-workers as you stared at mine all those months ago, they'll be the luckier for it. Also ...

      A PLAGUE ON ALL YOUR HOUSES!

        Hillary, I have two bunnies and I majored in theatre. If you really need rabbits and Shakespeare, I'm your gal!

      From our last two gchat conversations. Clearly, you will be missed.

          "I would tell concerned adults inquiring about my future plans that I hoped to become a professional feminist with a sponsor (which is like a professional skateboarder with a sponsor, but instead of doing tricks you yell about the patriarchy in logo-branded apparel)."

          I am going to miss you so damn much.
