thatallisonperson, underweight blogger and professional sycophant, proudly announces that guestofaguest finally acknowledged her existence: Look, mom. I’m on Guest of a Guest.  Aren’t you proud?  (I’m just kidding.) At last her nonstop cultivation of sucking up to gawker employees and men with cameras is paying off! You know, she can really take this and go anywhere with it. What next? Her picture in gawker? Mediabistro? She's already set famegame on fire. Yes we can expect great things from the future famous Allison! I know, I'm just jealous because I want to be on guestofaguest and gawker too. Oh well!

Sarah Lacy, of  "what recession?" fame, apparently follows Paul Carr and Michael Arrington out the door over at TechCrunch. Unsurprisingly, the only people who seem to care are TC commenters. In her personal contribution to the too long, passive aggressive departure post library formerly known as TechCrunch, Sarah basically says she's successful and important and doesn't need all this drama: I’ve bounced between a lot of jobs in the last few years– writing for BusinessWeek, hosting a show for Yahoo Finance, writing two books, and traveling the world to find great entrepreneurs– but TechCrunch was the first place in my career...

Young House Love, here, here, and here, have long been getting called out for their ridiculous use of Photoshop for absurd reasons. Now it seems a GOMIBLOG reader found a particularly wtf potential 'shop - safety gear. Apparently back in August Sherdawwwwg and The Guy Who Also Does Stuff refinished their deck. (Yeah, I know, I'm already bored too.) Included in the post was a picture of Essbee painting a railing, looking fit and safety conscious: The problem is, they forgot to delete the original: WOMP WOMP. I'm not sure what the point of this would be, honestly. Why not...

Erin ______, aka girlgangz773, has been attempting to forge a full-time job out of screaming about the same five things influencers do. Now they're calling HER out - and she wants your help to make them stop.

"Bloggers Anonymous", eyerolls ahoy, is "a new site dedicated to building up other people". Basically you anonymously submit other bloggers along with a blurb about how omgamazeballs they are. With so much negativity online and offline, why not have a space to celebrate each other? "Bloggers Anonymous" is meant for exactly that. A place to build each other up against the critics that want to bring us down. You know what, this is great! What the blog world really needs is more opportunities for bloggers to rub each others' tummies. They just do not get enough rainbow enemas in their...

New York Fashion Week continues with some well timed news - Pinterest will be removing those precious rstyle affiliate links from pins, preventing bloggers from making click money through affiliate linking on Pinterest. Starting today, we'll automatically remove all affiliate links, redirects, and trackers on Pins. We've been automatically removing most of these links for a few years but, until now, we made exceptions for rewardStyle...all your past Pins will show up normally and still be clickable. They just won't include the affiliate tracker... That sound you hear is 500 bloggers posing outside Milk Studios screaming "Noooooooooooooo".
