Today, we chat with our resident straight guy, actor, and writer, Joey Palestina, to help us figure out how we all became addicted to the internet and why internet dating is a blessing, a curse, and endlessly fascinating. Are we all just mindless mutants who should have their phones thrown out the window or do we truly deserve love?

We Will Stop Femicide
This Istanbul-based organization tracks the number murdered of women in Turkey based on news reports and accounts from family members. They keep records and collect data to shed light on femicide facts in Turkey and share it with the public on a monthly basis. They monitor femicide cases in the country and alert the authorities about the relevant developments. Its mission is to stop "femicide and [ensure] protection from violence. It fights against all types of women’s rights violations, starting with the violation right to life." Many women in Turkey who are being abused seek — but never receive — proper help. Melek Önder of the We Will Stop Femicide initiative says that Turkish police, the government and state officials must do much more to protect women at risk: "There were cases where women who were being violently abused asked for help, but nothing happened," she says.
