The family of Caleb Logan, the 13 year old youtube vlogger who died suddenly last week from an "undetected medical condition", livestreamed his memorial service on the internet tonight. A source says they are doing it to "create closure for the fans".

Jenna Cole, struggling to understand JavaScript, has managed somehow to figure out Manic Panic. Now that I know I can do a passable job putting it in myself, I can have pink hair all the time! As part of her Mumspringa journey Jenna has been doing the usual radical hair changes and alcohol. The nose stud piercing and Pinteresty feminism tattoos are sure to come next, probably around the time she finally makes HELLO WORLD appear and declares herself the millenial Grace Hopper. But first she needs to pout about how hard coding is and then lean in to some feminist...

Saint Glennon, of the mystical lap healer tribe of Bloglandia, attended a conference Friday, during which her special powers were called upon. I spoke at the Momentous Institute conference today--to a room full of mental health professionals...Afterward, this precious reader came over to my table and laid her head in my lap. She was just having a hard time and needed some comfort. We sat like this for the rest of the morning... This story was accompanied by a picture of Glennon showing that silly Pope Francis how healing is really done. The moment is being hailed as "beautiful", "brave", "kind", and...

Sadie Jane, some mom who lost weight, is doing a lot of thinking this weekend. I feel like the entire world is under attack right now. Millions of sad and precious children in Syria sleep in streets alone, young college students are being executed for believing in Christ, and cyberbullying is ripping us mothers and women apart one comment after another on all media platforms. Now read it again. She just ranked mean comments about mommies up there with being executed for your faith and the atrocities of the refugee crisis. Add to this that the message comes to you...

Happy Friday hamdizzles! It's time for another dramatic reading of a blog book. This week we will be reading the second book by Young House Love, and if it's as exciting as their first book I'm going to need to move into the Franzia factory to make it through. So blazer up, because it's time to make our way through 'Lovable Liveable Home: How to Add Beauty, Get Organized, and Make Your House Work for You' by Sherry and John Persik. (more…)

Amber Fillerup, the barefoot and pregnant blonde, put up a sponsored laundry detergent post yesterday that caused quite the drama. It seems her baby was wearing a shirt that resembled the concentration camp uniform Jews were forced to wear during the Holocaust. After being alerted to the issue Amber responded in a (now apparently deleted) comment that if the "photos are invoking horrific feelings upon you then I am sorry and I will not be offended if you do not come back to my website". Meanwhile her fangirls defended her with remarks like "the real truth is the holocaust was...

In news that shocked pretty much nobody with a brain, Australia's new Children's eSafety Commissioner has warned parents that their innocent social media photos of their kids have been found on deep web photo sharing sites. Tens of millions of photos of children doing everyday activities and posted on popular sites such as Facebook, Kik, and Instagram have been found by investigators looking into complaints about child abuse material online. The stolen material is organized into groups named things like "My daughter's Instagram friends" and "nice boys play in river". Commissioner Alastair MacGibbon says "photos of children originally posted on social media and family blogs account for up to half the material found on some...

Is Emily Schuman, elevating everything, now elevating your home with elevated bedding and decor? Her instagram certainly seems to be hinting that a Cupcakes and Cashmere home goods line is on the way. Her bizarre fashion line allegedly sold like crazy (while simultaneously causing sizism controversy), so it's obvious there's a market for anything Cuppy peddles. Fangirls on instagram are already slobbering things like "omg I need this now this is such big news" and "if she's doing a homewares line I will fly to LA" so clearly there are gals out there who want to home it up like Emily....

Jordan Reid, still waiting for that second book to come out, has apparently hooked up with another blogger to start some kind of store. It's called "glam | camp" and on their rambling, wtf filled About page, they say it's "the kind of place that you go into hoping to find something for your best friend or your co-worker's new baby, and then end up kind of wanting to buy everything for yourself". You've met us before: we're the proprietors of that store down the alley who talk way too much, telling you stories about how those candles were hand-dipped by a...

Aunt Becky, of Mommy Wants Vodka and Band Back Together fame, is back with a new personal tragedy. After her claims of being attacked by phantom stalkers resulted in her being charged with filing false reports she continued to say she was in danger. Then she went sort of quiet for a while. Now she's back with new physical injuries. A friend then updated all of Aunt Becky's "pranksters" on The Facebook. Becky is out of surgery, hasn't spoken to the doctor yet but is doing ok other than being in agonizing pain. Keep her in your thoughts--she's got a...

Here's a few meh news bits while the internets is being boring. Camp Patton has set her blog private. It looks like her instagram is still up, and she says she has "shut it down for the time being" and is "just taking some safety precautions, hope to maybe be back one day". Fashion blahg fanpoodles are flipping out over Jane Aldridge's new hair. Since the flaming mop was sort of her signature it will be interesting to see if she remains the recognizable Sea of Shoes icon that shot to pseudofame after going from dirty blonde to red all...

Hey Natalie Jean, totally lives on a farm now, has announced her acquisition of chickens. oh my gosh i love them already. so much that the guy at the tack + feed store already knows me by name. I've been in there at least three times since i brought my girls home, asking the silliest questions. The chickens apparently spent their first night running around in the yard because they tried to "wait for the chickens to figure out how to get back into their coop, because #chickennoobs". She claims the "tack + feed" guy "told me i was a...

Dooce, still talking, is still talking. She was apparently a speaker at some "XOXO" conference. I guess she was there to yammer on yet again about why she left blogging. She is now claiming that despite her amazing sponsored content, she's basically being forced to retire-except-not because brands now want approval on sponsored post content. (more…)

Young House Love, still around, has put up a post about what they've been up to the past year. Except not really, it was basically just a post telling you to go listen to "The Lively Show". The podcast interview is pretty much just an excruciating hour long ear assault of Sherry's usual manic staccato nonstop blathering. They explain Sherry's been doing copywriting work and product naming, and John's been doing contract junk also. They also say they had to walk away basically to get their family life back in order without having to document it all the time. John added that setting...

The Freckled Fox, producer of a yearly baby haha, announced back in April that her husband Martin had "aggressive Stage 4 Melanoma Cancer". Since that time they apparently spent a few weeks in Mexico getting "alternative" treatments, having a "little operation", and posting selfies after which the couple returned home where Martin immediately resumed his workouts. He claimed to have "inflamed tumors" at the base of his spine, and his wife hailed him as a "warrior" covered in stitches and  tubes coming out of his chest. But suspicion began to grow as the patient, allegedly riddled with tumors in "multiple spots on...

Dooce, irrelevant, evidently went to the Problogger event and "told the audience how soul destroying it was to do sponsored posts". She told people who had paid to come and wanted to hear the "Queen of Mommyblogging" talk about how to monetize a blog that the "only way that you can make money in the States is through sponsored content". She then proceeded to call writing sponsored posts "a gruelling experience" and declared personal blogging dead. While at Problogger, where she complained about doing sponsored posts, she bravely confronted the soul sucking task of posting what appears to be a sponsored Target instagram. She then went...

Pioneer Woman, shucks y'all, has a new cookware line that went on sale yesterday. I can’t tell you how excited I am to share this collection with you, and I am over-the-moon thrilled that Walmart will be launching it. The quality of the pieces is amazing, the prices are fantastic, and every single item is a reflection of the things I love in life. The collection seems to be a lot of enamelware style stuff, mason jar glasses, and "rustic" wood handled kitchen tools which are all very trendy on The Pinterest Machine. The flatware and dinnerware is not really...

TGIF hambaskets! Today I want to share a few awesome things that will help you kill some time. Because why do actual work when you can look at cats on the internet, right? First we have Breaking Cat News. I have been lmao at this site for days. It's a twice weekly panel comic with cats reporting amazing news like can openers being used and empty boxes in the living room. If you're more of an instagram person you might enjoy Drunk Cats. If tippling felines isn't your bag maybe Bodega Cats will strike your fancy. If you have any...

Veronica Partridge, the blogger who refuses to inspire lust in men with her yoga pants, is apparently being sued for cutting down some trees. Evidently she bought some property in Oregon, and according to the lawsuit proceeded to chop down six "ancient" juniper trees on someone else's property in order to get "unobstructed views" of some mountains. Nash kept about 20 acres of undeveloped land to the west of the property that she sold the Partridges. Some months after closing the sale, however, Nash was visiting her property when she discovered at least six large juniper trees had been cut...The...

Pink Peonies, the Million Dollar Blogger, posted a super fun vacay pic to instagram yesterday. Yes, that is indeed her newborn baby in the arms of her husband, who is driving the jet ski with one hand. The post was online for hours while Rachel allowed her fangirls to defend her good parenting decisions. In the end, despite taking to snapchat herself and getting all sassy to her "haters" about what a safety obsessed mom she is, and omg you guys they were going really slow and her husband has driven jet skis for 25 years and she knows how...
