You can't deny that Kylie Jenner really gives all the products in her Kylie Shop that personal touch - sometimes a little too personal.

The latest addition to Kylie's shop is a t-shirt emblazoned with the image of Kylie herself pulling down her jeans to reveal her butt. (Maybe she took some inspiration from Kim Kardashian.)

The Exclusive Cheeks Tee Available Tomorrow Only at 9am pst

Honestly, good for Kylie for being so confident in her body she's willing to put it on a t-shirt and then sell it for lots of money. She is truly living the dream.


Woman shuts down political rival who says women are ‘weaker, smaller and less intelligent.'

The US isn't the only country with sexist politicians. A Polish politician recently went on an insanely sexist tirade about why women "must earn less" in a meeting of European parliament. Don't worry, he got smacked down and it was glorious.

Janusz Korwin-Mikke, a 74-year-old right-wing libertarian, weighed in on a debate on the gender pay gap in Brussels. "Of course, women must earn less than men because they are weaker, they are smaller, they are less intelligent," he said. "They must earn less. That's all!"

This is awful and not exactly surprising for a politician. I mean, our own president once said he liked to "grab" women "by the pussy."

But that doesn't make it okay. Luckily, Spanish Socialist Member-of-Parliament/bonafide rock star Iratxe Garcia Perez stepped up and hung this chauvinist up to dry as the house applauded. A video of the smack down from Mic has gone viral and it is worth a watch, because this woman is #GOALS:

Sexist politician gets shut down

Politician argues women should earn less "because they're weaker, they're smaller, they're less intelligent." Gets obliterated in seconds.

Posted by Mic on Friday, March 3, 2017

"According to your theory I wouldn't have the right to be here as a member of parliament," she said (translated from Spanish). "I know you're very upset and very concerned about the fact we women can represent citizens on an equal footing with you."

Women are "weaker," he says? Nah.

She continued: "I think I need to defend European women against men like you!"

You know what IS "weaker, smaller and less intelligent"? This dude's bigoted ancient out-of-touch views. Also, that bow tie. Nope.

Korwin-Mikke may be punished for his remarks, the BBC reports. In 2015 he was suspended for making a Nazi salute in the House of Parliament, which begs the question, what do you have to do to get permanently booted from the European Parliament??

Also, I'd like to personally fly Iratxe Garcia Perez to Washington, DC to have a few words with our president.

I want to get engaged but only for the attention.

Arnold Schwarzenegger terminates his gig on 'Apprentice' and says it's all Trump's fault.

Welp, add Arnold Schwarzenegger to the growing list of people leaving their jobs because they don't want to be associated with Donald Trump. Schwarzenegger has announced that he will not return as host for the second season of NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice.

"I learned a lot, I had a great time, it was a really great opportunity," the former California governor told British film magazine Empire."But under the circumstances I don't want to do it again."

And apparently yes, his decision has everything to do with Donald Trump.

“With Trump being involved in the show people have a bad taste and don't want to participate as a spectator or as a sponsor, or in any other way support the show,” he said.“It's a very divisive period now and I think this show got caught up in all that division."

Schwarzenegger added that it's specifically Trump's involvement with the show that is turning away sponsors, as The Wrap reported yesterday. Celebrity sponsors Tyra Banks and Jessica Alba also revealed earlier this month they were cutting ties with the show.

“It's not about the show … because everyone I ran into came up to me and said, 'I love the show... but I turned it off because as soon as I read Trump's name I'm outta there!'" said Schwarzenegger. "When people found out that Trump was still involved as executive producer and was still receiving money from the show, then half the people [started] boycotting it."

Schwarzenegger, a Republican who is fiercely anti-Trump, replaced Donald Trump as Apprentice host. The two had it out on Twitter when Trump tweeted after the show's January debut that Schwarzenegger “got swamped” in the ratings.

Of course, Arnold is famous for saying "I'll be back." But in this case, that seems unlikely.

A theater in Alabama won't show 'Beauty and the Beast' due to gay character.

Everyone is getting pumped up for the release of Disney's live-action Beauty and the Beast remake, but some folks in Alabama may not be able to see it at their local drive-in.

The owner of Henagar Drive-In is banning Beauty and the Beast after it was announced that the film would include a gay character.

Beauty and the Beast's director revealed in a recent interview that the character of LeFou, played by Josh Gad, would be openly gay.

The owner told TMZthat he decided not to show the film after the character's sexuality was revealed because he "refused to compromise on what the Bible teaches." (Does the Bible not teach love and acceptance for all people?)

"If we can not take our 11 year old grand daughter and 8 year old grandson to see a movie we have no business watching it," the theater's owner continued. "If I can't sit through a movie with God or Jesus sitting by me then we have no business showing it."

He sounds like he'd be fun at parties.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's probably okay to take your kids to Beauty and the Beast, a Disney film about a princess.

The mind-bending optical illusion in these 'red' strawberries is driving the internet mad.

Akiyoshi Kitaoka, a psychology professor at Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto, Japan, loves torturing the internet by posting unsettling optical illusions on his Twitter account. Using his deep knowledge of how the brain processes images, he creates illusions that force you to accept the reality that everything you perceive in life is just your mind lying to itself. It's a lot of fun.

In the last week, he's gone viral with a truly unnerving image of some delicious strawberries. Take a look.

As the professor points out, there isn't a single red pixel in that image. The strawberries are entirely represented in shades of gray. You only perceives them as red because of color constancy, a phenomenon in which the brain automatically corrects colors based on the surrounding ones, so that you'll be able to judge colors accurately even under unusual lighting.

Still unsure? Still tempted to take the blue bill? Twitter user @carsonmell isolated the "red" strawberry colors, just to shatter your world.

It's the same phenomenon that caused people to see The Dress differently. So it might be time to apologize to all the family members you wrote out of your will because they insisted it was black and gold.

Meanwhile, Professor Kitaoka is enjoying his viral fame.

Here are some more of his illusions for you to enjoy. They're a lighthearted way to remind yourself that your brain is just a flimsy hunk of meat.

I'm jealous of your ability to not get jealous.

This guy's dad 'ruined' his dog with a '90s haircut and Twitter is losing it.

I remember being shocked when my mom first "groomed" our dog and I learned that "grooming" actually meant "chop off all her fur with gardening shears." Suddenly, my beloved fluff ball had been transformed into this bald spindly Tim Burton-esque creature and I was like WTFFF IS THAT???!!!

So I totally relate to the suburban struggle of a boy named Beau, who shared photos on Twitter after his dad "ruined" the family dog. But this much worse than a normal bad grooming job, because this dad got creative and left some fur on the top of the dog's head. Why? We may never know.

Beau shared the before and after pics on Twitter where they went viral because the after pics are just so absurd. Plus, who can't relate to a bad haircut?

Here's a closer look at the dog now. This is not good.

"On my way to a Black Flag concert!"

Lots of people are weighing in, mostly to roast this poor dog's haircut.

Although at least one person thinks it looks "cool."

A few people shared pics of their own dogs' bad haircuts to let Beau know his dog is not alone.

And this person thought the dad should take things a step further:

I mean, if you're going to have a mohawk, you have to dye it. It's the law.

However, IMHO Beau's dog does not have a mohawk. Beau's dog has a flat top.

If you may recall, Will Smith, among many others, sported this look throughout the late '80s and early '90s. And he's doing just fine.


Trump claims Obama wiretapped him, defends Sessions, and trashes Schwarzenegger in one tweetstorm.

Buckle up, folks, because President Trump went on a tweetstorm around dawn this morning, and nobody knows what the hell he was talking about.

First of all, great job sticking to any one subject for long enough to present a coherent thought about it. Secondly, who was in your bed and rolled over at 6 a.m. to tell you that Obama was spying on Trump Tower? Thirdly, it's really not weird for Russian ambassadors to visit the White House. Part of their job, kinda.

Anyway, it certainly seems as if the stress of the presidency is making Trump a little more, shall we say, paranoid? Then again, maybe he has reason to worry.

The Obama camp has already dismissed the claim, saying that neither he nor any White House official ordered such surveillance on Trump or anyone else.

Of course, that doesn't mean nobody was listening in...

But also, who knows! Because Trump sure wasn't working with hard facts:

So maybe he got a little mixed up about what happened.

The point is, in the end, he got a lot accomplished today.

Only 1,340 more days until the 2020 election.

Here's the ultimate lifehack for pretending you belong at any fancy clothing store.

Shopping for clothes is stressful enough without a salesperson making you feel unwelcome in their store just because you can't afford anything in it. The more upscale the brand, the higher the stakes, and the more likely it is that the very beautiful staff will subtly, passive-aggressively herd you to the exit.

Unless, that is, you follow writer Anna Fitzpatrick's seemingly foolproof script for fitting in at one of these posh, price-gouging retailers. In her example, the lifehack is specifically tailored for use in a Gucci store, but we have a feeling that with just a few tweaks, it would work as well in many similar scenarios.

Now that you know the secret of luxury brand shopping, the only thing left is to figure out which sequined bomber looks best on you.

Arnold Schwarzenegger will not stand for Trump saying he was fired from 'The Apprentice.'

Trump woke up this morning with a strong urge to tweet irresponsibly, and one of those tweets was directed at Arnold Schwarzenegger, who recently announced he was leaving The Apprentice.

Interesting choice to bring up reality television immediately after accusing the former president of wire tapping, and an especially frivolous subject matter to discuss in light of what Trump said in his first joint Congressional address on Tuesday: "The time for trivial fights is behind us." I am not sure if there is anything more trivial than reality TV? Regardless, the Kindergarten Cop was not having it, and according to the Washington Post, he decided to set the record straight with a tweet (obviously, how else do people communicate these days?):

I think this is a very cute burn! Maybe that's just because I'm imagining it said in Schwarzenegger's lovely Austrian accent. It's also funny that Schwarzenegger mentions hiring a "joke writer," because it doesn't appear to me that Trump thinks any of his tweets are humorous in nature. But maybe I'm just not Trump's intended audience.

This isn't the first time that the two have exchanged words, either. Back in February, Trump took a dig at the former Governor of California during the National Prayer Breakfast when he asked the audience to "pray for Arnold, if we can, for those ratings." To which Schwarzenegger responded with this video:

I wonder if Trump is just mad that Arnold did the whole celebrity-turned-politician before him, and managed to do it without causing the apocalypse.

Hero savagely trolls Kellyanne Conway with the best video selfie prank of 2017.

He's not gonna get the Congressional Medal of Honor after what he pulled, but AJ Pelicci surely deserves that sort of accolade after thoroughly embarrassing national embarrassment Kellyanne Conway in an Instagram video on Friday.

At first, nothing seems unusual here—Pelicci appears to be shooting a video of himself with the Trump advisor now most famous for not knowing how couches work. Then you realize that Conway thinks he's setting them up for a photo, and Pelicci drops the bomb. Instead of "Say 'cheese,'" he tells her, "Say, 'I'm ruining America." What follows are an excruciating few seconds as Conway processes the comment and waits for him to snap the picture he was never going to take.

If the rest of Pelicci's Instagram account is anything to go by, he's been actively protesting the Trump administration for the entirety of its short existence. Maybe he should have been vetted before he was allowed to attend a party with White House staff? Then again, research isn't Team Trump's strong suit.

Russia might ban 'Beauty and the Beast' because of the film's openly gay character.

Since it was announced earlier this week that Disney would finally feature its first openly gay character in the new live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast, it didn't take long for some backwards-ass people to say they were going to boycott the movie, like the owner of this drive-in theater in Alabama. Now, the entire country of Russia is following suit, BBC News reports.

The movie's "gay moment" might actually be against the law in Russia, due to a 2013 legislation that prohibits the spread of "homosexual propaganda," as they call it, among minors in Russia. The law actually refers to homosexuality as "non-traditional sexual relations," which caused outrage among human rights activists around the world.

Now, before the movie's Russian debut, which is slated for March 16, Russian Members of Parliament are urging for it to be reviewed. MP Vitaly Milonov has asked the Culture Minister, Vladimir Medinsky, to host a screening of the movie to determine if it complies with the law, or otherwise contains "elements of propaganda of homosexuality". Crazy to think they are calling a gay storyline in a children's movie "propaganda," while their President, Vladimir Putin, has Russian Rockettes performing song an dance about how great he is.

"As soon as we get a copy of the film with relevant paperwork for distribution, we will consider it according to the law," Medinsky said. Oh lord. Let this not be our future.

Mariam, a 20-year-old college student from Dallas, Texas, is in some hot water. Or should we say hot milk? Because that's what she's dunking her pizza in.

OK, so we don't know the exact temperature of the milk Mariam was using for this bizarre culinary experiment, but we know one thing: It. Was. Milk. "She said she hates pineapple on pizza and wanted to try something that sounded even more disgusting," BuzzFeed reported. Therefore, pizza-milk? I guess?

Since tweeting the offensive images above, Mariam has set her Twitter to private, probably because she was swiftly besieged with replies of righteous outrage.

Whatever you do, don't try this at home. And if you do, for the love of god, please don't tell the internet about it.

Will someone please explain how this Mr. Pibb crucifixion display is defying gravity?

When I first saw a photograph of a crucifixion scene made entirely out of boxes of Mr. Pibb soda on Twitter I thought to myself, "oh boy, just when you think brands cannot get any dumber, they recreate Jesus' death scene." But the more I studied the photo the more insane I felt. Take a look:

Yes, that's definitely three crosses, one of which is draped in a gauzy purple scarf, you might first say. But look closer. Isn't it strange how the horizontal beams of the crosses seem to be holding themselves up? That's when I knew something was weird here, beyond the usual painful attempt of a brand to create positive sentiment through some ill-conceived display. Now, believers might say it was the grace of God that was keeping those horizontal beams in place, but I needed some cold hard facts. I guess that's why I'm a journalist.

Exhibit A.

Now, onto the research. I figured that the horizontal boxes of Mr. Pibb had two ways of staying up: they either would need to be secured to one another somehow (Glued? Taped? Pierced through the middle by a metal rod?), or invisibly suspended from the ceiling (fishing wire). For either of those situations, I would imagine that the boxes would need to be emptied of their product, thus rendering the product un-sellable. It seems like a weird choice to lose money on product in the name of a display meant to sell product, but I didn't want to rule this out, as brands are impossible to understand most of the time.

Lest I become a hater who says that it is photoshopped, I continued my research. The story was covered by several small Christian and right-wing news sources, including LongRoom.com and GraceCentered.com, both citing a specific Fred's store (a discount grocery chain) in Murfreesboro, TN. But were these flimsy stories enough corroboration that the store indeed exists? Upon further investigation, I found that someone had posted the same image on Facebook, where it has been liked 8.9K times. It was there that I found another skeptic:

Have to say, I'm with Aaron on this one.

Truly, how tf are they doing that? And what is this shelf Terri speaks of? What seemed obvious to others had me shaking my head in disbelief. Then, another commenter weighed in: "Empty cartons taped together. My hubby works for Coke and has built many displays." Could it be that one of my initial hypotheses proved true? Would this Fred's store decide to destroy product for the sake of building a cross? Perhaps this remark would make some feel as though the case was closed, but I was still unconvinced. I knew what I had to do: I had to call Fred's and figure out if the display was real or not.

When I got the associate on the phone I described the Mr. Pibb crucifixion scene and asked her if they had such a thing in their store. "No. We actually don't sell Pibb here," she told me, not knowing she had just helped solve a mystery that had nearly caused my unhinging. Well, call me a hater all you want, but that shit is photoshopped af.

Chrissy Marie of Lakewood, Washington, is looking for "Jake," one of two siblings who apparently stole a wind chime from her front porch. But she's not out to get him in trouble—she just wants to return his $5.

Jake left the cash behind for Chrissy along with a heartbreaking note that explained the theft: "I am sorry that we stold [sic] your wind chime our mom died and liked butterflies so my sister took it to put by her window," he wrote. "I am sorry this is the only money I have please do not be mad at us."

Jake explained in the note that the chime, which had butterflies on it, reminded his sister of their mother who had died.

Posted by KING 5 on Saturday, March 4, 2017

Far from being mad, Chrissy—who told local news affiliate KING 5 that she lost her own mother when she was just 5 years old—says she understands. She wants to return the $5 and get Jake and his sister another wind chime just like the one they took, so that they can both have something to remember their mom by.

Anyone in the area with any info on who Jake or his sister are is encouraged to email webseattle@king5.com. With a little luck, they'll be able to meet Chrissy face to face and shed some of that guilt they're carrying around with them.

Remember how you felt when you found out that VP Mike Pence had used a private email server during his time as Indiana governor? The sting of hypocrisy, the incredible stupidity of it all. Now, imagine what it was like for Hillary Clinton to find out that exact same news. Probably 9,000 times more infuriating. Well, a photo has been circulating the internet that supposedly captures the exact moment in which she sees the Pence email headline for the very first time:

Reuters reports that the photo (captured by a woman named Caitlin Quigley) was taken on Clinton's American Airlines flight to Laguardia Airport in New York City on Friday, March 3, after the story on Pence's email broke Thursday night. The USA Today's headline reads "Pence used personal email in office." It's hard to believe her head didn't explode right there in first class. What a cruel, cruel joke the universe seems to be playing on us.

Officers arrest man with a loaded handgun during traffic stop

On March 1, 2017, officers from the Eastern District Operations Unit pulled over a car in the 700 block of N. Rose Street. During the traffic stop, officers recovered a loaded handgun and drugs from inside the vehicle.

36-year old Keith Gladden was arrested at the scene. He was transported to the Central Booking and Intake Facility. Gladden is a repeat offender and is prohibited from possessing a firearm.

What to many at first seems like a dirty, busted up gun became the source of dozens of jokes and more than 15K views on Facebook. People could not get enough of Keith Gladden's old-timey handgun. Here are some of the greatest hits from the comments section:

Kate McKinnon as Jeff Sessions as Forrest Gump is the 'SNL' cold open we needed.

At this point, SNL'sKate McKinnon has probably done an impression of more of Trump's cabinet than not. Okay, maybe that's an exaggeration, but it's impressive that she has been able to handle tapping into the psyche of so many horrible rich white people without losing her own mind. And the latest iteration of her masterful impression work comes in the form of Jeff Sessions (a character she debuted when Melissa McCarthy gave us Sean Spicer, bless them both), asForrest Gump. Now that is some comedy with layers.

I do not know what writer said, "hey Jeff Sessions drawl and simple mindedness reminds me of Forrest Gump," but man were they right. And SNL masterfully mapped Sessions recent actions onto the iconic scene from Forrest Gump.

"I always say life is like a box of chocolates… Sure are a whole lot of brown ones in there," Sessions says to the lady at the bus stop with him, who's barely giving him the time of day. The delivery of Sessions racism in character as slow-witted Gump is hilarious; it points out just how out-of-date and backwards Sessions beliefs are.

When Sessions dives into his recently revealed contact with Russians, it gets even funnier. Sessions says his week started out pretty good, due to the President's first Congressional Address. "Folks were thrilled on the account that it was real words in a row for a whole hour," he said. "But then I went to bed, I got 800 messages and phone alerts saying I was a sneaky little liar. I didn't know what to do so my lawyer said 'Run, Jeffy, run.' I started running and running."

The scene also gives us Sessions showing the meme-ified picture of Kellyanne Conway casually sitting in the Oval Office while in a meeting with many higher-ups from HBCUs, and compares her to Gump's legless friend Lieutenant Dan. And, as a bonus, we get a visit from Octavia Spencer as Minny, her character in The Help, (just to add more southern movie references into the mix) who has made Sessions a pie—a special joke for those of us who remember what it was made of. Watch the whole sketch here:

The weirdest thing of all is that interspersed with Stone's bigoted rants where other posts from Stone about the lovely time he was having at the March 4 Trump rally in Palm Springs:
