It's been a long, long while since GOMIBLOG mentioned Caroline McCarthy, OMG BEARS, internet fixture, blogger, and writer person. Since that time she has joined and left Google, and then joined Quartz, "a new kind of global business news outlet" (translation: yet another blog talking about tech and business because the internet doesn't have enough of those). Now, amid rumors in the NYC media underground of what one source called "an office outburst", Caro has announced her departure from the company: As of last week, I’m no longer there. The reason: After a lot of conversations with our leadership, the...

Jenna Cole, the super great mom running That Wife blog, apparently convinced That Husband to unlock her cheese. After a brief spell of dairy enjoyment, Jenna discovered her perfectly normal weight was not dropping rapidly enough. Yes, instead of practicing portion control or simply not buying cheese, That Wife has turned to the only reasonable solution: lock the cheese back up and wistfully stare at it each time she opens the fridge door. I don't want to be That Person, but this is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I know losing weight is hard and people do some very...

Julia Allison, can't believe I'm typing her name again, spent a week making a BFD about how she is leaving the internet and waddling off to an ashram. I assume it's to do yoga, find her center, spirit something, has nothing to do with that divorced chick doing yogie and finding a hot young guy to bang after she got fat on pasta? I seriously cannot imagine her motivation here, unless Emily Ghoulllld convinced her she needed to do it for her writing. Anyway, we have heard nothing on twitter or her tumblr business for I guess about 5 days...

Jordan Reid Berkow, expert chef and lifestyle guru, has a super easy tip for those of you not aquainted with GladWare or dollar store plastic store and serve Crap: Love this picnicking tip from Real Simple: To prevent crushable munchies (chips, cookies, etc) from disintegrating en route to your destination, place them in a Ziploc bag, and then slide a straw into the top of the nearly-closed bag. Inflate, and seal the bag: the air will create a cushion around the bag’s contents, ensuring that they arrive in one piece. Yeah, I just can't on this one.

MOB Society, a website for "moms of boys", wants to remind you mothers that you shouldn't chide your son for getting dirty - you should encourage it, because men are supposed to do all the dirty work. What are men made of? The ability to handle dirt and hard jobs. Jobs most of us women don’t want to do...In Genesis I’m pretty sure that while Adam was off getting messy with the animals, Eve was getting a tan—after all no tan lines! Saying "your future daughter-in-law will thank you some day" if you cheer your sons for "getting too dirty,...

This picture is cute, except my bag is HUGE.  My new skin-care regimen to help my skin look less shinny is working though, right?  Mark my (well, Nick’s actually) words, the face on the left is going to be a meme soon. "thatgirlallison", in her relentless quest to prove to you and others that she is in fact an important and famous part of the NYC social scene, has added yet another Nick McGlynn picture of herself to her blog. Look, that's awesome but seriously, wtf is "random night out"? These idiots act like Anna Wintour sent the Finest Photographer...

Paul Carr, TechCrunch's worst decision to date (although that's not saying much), has turned on his '13 year old girl getting her first period' voice. When I wrote the last book, thanks to the events described in it, I had no job, no female distractions, no interest in socialising; really no inclination at all to leave my flat in East Dulwich. At the time, I hated it. I was miserable. But my God was I productive... This time I’m also living in hotels...and not one of them – not one - boasts a comfortable work space. Beds, yes; bathtubs, certainly....

Katie Vyktoriah, of pink headband fame, has reactivated A Mother Thing. There is no new content as of yet, so who knows what her plan is. Her twitter and facebook appear to be online as well. Katie vanished from the internet two months ago after her claim of a homophobic redneck assaulting her toddler at a Wal-Mart began to unravel under scrutiny. Speculation about her whereabouts and what, if any, evidence was ever found to back up her claims has kept many internet corners busy since her disappearance. The only development we've found so far is an apparent wedding ceremony in...
