Big news in the world of celebritiesKylie Jenner has gone platinum blond!

In case you've already forgotten, here's what she looked like before:

Going blond is a hobby for the Jenner/Kardashian family. This isn't Kylie's first time at the bleach rodeo, and Khloé, Kourtney, Kim, and Kendall have all done it, too.

Kylie posted a picture of her half-sister Kourtney with a bleach blond lob (long bob), along with the caption "VIBES" before getting her own hair bleached, as an inspiration of sorts.

New Jersey GOP candidate drops out after Facebook comments to reporter hoping she gets raped.

Mike Krawitz, a Republican candidate for Township Committee in West Deptford, New Jersey, withdrew his candidacy after his history of rape comments caught up with him. Rather than campaigning or relaxing, Krawitz reportedly spent his Labor Day commenting the grossest of things on Daily Beast reporter Olivia Nuzzi's Facebook page.

Nuzzi explained that this is not an isolated incident, as he has been trolling her page since 2014:

“Olivia. You. Call. Yourself. A. Journalist. ?” he asked on Dec. 9, 2014, in response to my story about the impending collapse of the Trump Taj Mahal. “I. Invite. Olivia. To. Contact. Me. So. I. Can. Show. You. Around. The. Taj. Mahal. I’ll. Pay. For. Everything. Mike.” He left his phone number.

A year later, he was still at it. “Stupid Olivia. go back up Obamas. Ass. :)” he said on Dec. 11, 2015.

This. Is. Mike. Krawitz. The. Poster. Of. Serially. Deplorable. Comments.

Despite his history, Krawitz claimed that he was hacked when his name posted the rape comments, even though a comment as recently as the month before followed his similar themes and style guide.

As you can infer by his party affiliation and the way he speaks to women, Krawitz is as aboard the Trump Train as it gets, his Facebook profile picture and cover photo both old magazine covers of The Donald (and not the ones that are critical or display his literal meltdown).

His verbal harassment circulated online and was picked up by the local news, who soon received a handwritten letter of resignation.

In an essay for The Daily Beast,Nuzzi writes how scary it is that Trump's candidacy has enabled such behavior to come out of the shadows, now that "bullying has been rebranded as telling it like it is":

When a former reality TV star can become the Republican nominee while offending and belittling entire genders, races, and religions, why wouldn’t a man seeking local office think that encouraging the rape of a woman he hates is OK?

In a post-Trump world, these trolls virtually harassing women aren't just staying in their mothers' basements: they're running for office.

Gwyneth Paltrow weighs in on that whole 'conscious uncoupling' thing.

In a video interview on LinkedIn, Gwyneth "Vagina-Steamer" Paltrow said that if she had to do it today, she'd probably go about announcing that she was "consciously uncoupling" from her ex-husband, Coldplay's Chris Martin, differently.

Martin and Paltrow have remained close friends despite their split.

When Paltrow originally announced on her lifestyle site, Goop, that she and her husband were "consciously uncoupling," it brought so much traffic that the site crashed. When asked if that was her intention, Paltrow was adamant that it wasn't.

So why put it on the site at all? She explained:

It was an incredibly personal statement. At that time, Goop wasn't the size that it is now, there were a lot less people. It was a very, very personal project for a long time and I wrote in the first person all the time, so it wasn't like a break. Now if you read the content, it's not in the first person anymore. At the time, it was still very small and very personal. It was such a difficult time in my life and I was trying so hard to protect my children and my family, Chris included. We were both fragile. It was really tough. To me it felt like this is a quiet way to do this and it's contained. I didn't anticipate that fallout.

Asked if she'd still put it on the site today, Paltrow responded, "That's a good question. Not in the same way. It sort of wouldn't be appropriate now. It's a much bigger business and I'm not sure it would be the right place to do something like that. I'm not sure. That's a good question."

It is a good question. Another good question that the interviewer could have asked would be, "Have you ever considered trademarking 'conscious uncoupling' as the only Paltrow-approved method of divorcing?" but somehow that one wasn't covered.

So, once upon a time an angry troll living under a bridge said Hillary Clinton couldn't be president because, "I just don't think she has a presidential look."

Gee, what could notorious misogynist Donald Trump have meant by that??

Simone Biles is writing an autobiography at the ripe old age of 19.

We all remember Simone Biles, right? The gold medal-winning gymnast who won America's hearts and minds during the Rio Olympics with her insane talent and hilarious Snapchat stories? Well, good news, folks. She's releasing an autobiography.

The book, entitled Courage to Soar, is slated to be released on November 15. In it, Biles talks about "how challenges in her childhood have shaped her into the young woman and role model she is today. She shares the ups and downs of her life, insights into her positive mental approach, and her inspiring journey to the pinnacle of her sport." It will also include a forward from 1984 Olympic gymnastics champion, Mary Lou Retton.

Some people might think it's a little too soon for Biles, who is only 19, to be releasing the story of her life. But I for one will be in line at the bookstore on November 15th like:

This assistant principal wins for the most sexist dress code announcement ever.

Congratulations to Phil Morgante, assistant principal at Clements High School in Sugar Land, Texas! We present to you the award for most sexist comment about dress codes in recent recorded internet history (a great honor, given the steep competition).

Congrats!

The award-winning comments were reportedly made at an assembly on August 24th, after which a recording of them was uploaded to theodysseyonline.com. You can listen here:

"Ladies," he begins, a rocky start. And it only gets worse. "I know you’ve been working on your abs since the Olympics," he says. "But your shirts can’t be up here. It’s gotta cover the whole gut, OK? So, cover up…Ladies. I still blame you all for boys’ low grades because of tight clothing.”

Many Clements students and parents pointed out that these comments are suuuuuper sexist. And though Morgante has not apologized, the Fort Bend Independent School District issued this statement claiming his comments were "a failed attempt at humor and inappropriate."

Ah, the old "it was a joke!" excuse. Of course, Morgante just thought he'd entertain his students with a little standup comedy. And then, whoops, he forgot punch lines. Haha comedy!

The school continued: "Our goal is to provide a safe, positive learning environment where all students feel supported and valued. Please know this situation is being addressed, and appropriate actions will be taken."

In this case, "appropriate action" would require Morgante to wear tight clothing every day, and then apologize to the female students for their bad grades.


Zendaya blasts racist cashier who refused to sell her gift cards because of her 'skin tone.'

Zendaya sent off a series of Snapchats yesterday alleging she was the victim of racism when an "extremely rude" supermarket clerk refused to sell her $400 in gift cards, and even went as far as throwing her wallet back at her. "You can't make this shit up," she says.

The KC Undercover star, who previously has had to defend herself against random acts of racism, as well as body shaming, began Snapping from the parking lot of the Vons grocery where the incident took place.

"So we just got out of this Vons, and I'm like, trying to buy a lot of gift cards... but the lady who was helping us, I don't think she was a huge fan of our skin tone.... she was like, you cant afford this, is how she looked at me."

"She was rude," explains Zendaya's male friend who was with her at the time.

"Extremely," confirmed Zendaya. "In fact, I recall her not trying to help us at all, and then throwing my wallet."

"This is what we deal with," says the 20-year-old star.

And then her male friend adds, "because we're black."

Zendaya went on to demonstrate how the clerk "tossed" her wallet back at her, then proceeded to help the next person in line as though she wasn't there.

According to People, a manager was able to help her out with the gift cards, but that wasn't the biggest problem here.

"Long story short," Zendaya concludes, "there's so much progress to be done in our world."

Asking someone to be a bridesmaid is both a huge honor and huge financial imposition, but luckily Pinterest has found a beautiful dress option that costs less than $160 ($159.99 to be exact!).

Pinterest, of course, is the go-to social network for all things marriage and mason jars. The Lace Illusion Neckline Dress designed by Camille La Vie (on the far right of the picture below) has been pinned over 750,000 times, earning the honor of being the Most-Pinned Dress.

It's cheap, but doesn't look it. The best type of dress.

The flowy floor-length number is available in black, light pink, cranberry, blush, wine, royal blue, coral, and navy. It retails for $159.99, with plus sizes available for $179.99.

If you know what fashion stuff means, designer Camille La Vie points out that the dress features:

• Lace illusion neckline
• Crisscross pleated bodice
• Chiffon skirt
• Center back zipper

The site adds, "All they'll need to finish the wedding day look is a pair of high heels and a bold bracelet!"

With such a cheap bridesmaid dress, now you can focus on burning all your money on the bachelorette party.

Italy's supreme court decriminalizes public masturbation, Italian creeps rejoice.

After a man identified solely as Pietro L was spotted "taking out his penis" in front of university students in Cantania and "practising autoeroticism" (which is the classiest euphemism the Italians could come up with), the highest court of Italy overturned his three month prison sentence.

This means that Pietro L has paved a slippery first, crusty later road for all public masturbators in Italy.

The court justified their decision, saying "the act is not included in the law as a crime," thanks to a new government reform.

According to theIndependent, this means "the court has eliminated the criminal aspects of sentencing for obscene acts in public places."

And yet, the fury of innocent bystanders will hardly be affected by this law.

Trump is being sued by the little girls he hired to sing about how great he is.

Trump can now add "little girls" to his list of groups he's pissed off. The leader of USA Freedom Kids, those girls in patriotic dresses singing songs about freedom and, well, other stuff, is suing the Trump campaign for reneging on a verbal agreement to pay for the group's travel and expenses.

Jeff Popick, the group's manager, told the Daily Beast...

This is not an opportunistic thing where we’re suing Donald Trump... We’re not suing for emotional distress and all that other stuff that people do when they trump up—no pun intended—when they trump up a lawsuit. That’s not what this is. This is tangible dollars I spent under false pretenses.

It went down like this. The Trump campaign had the girls perform. They were a hit—did you see those dresses?—so they were asked to perform again. Popick worked out a deal with the Trump campaign to sell the group's merchandise at the event, which the Trump campaign said they would provide space for. When the group got there, no such space was provided, and when they returned to their car, all of their merchandise had been stolen.

Undeterred, and based on the encouragement from the campaign, the group was invited to a rally in Iowa, which required lengthy travel and expenses. Popick made it happen for the Donald, only to find the event canceled at the last minute, leaving Popick stuck in Iowa with 5 patriotic little girls. The Trump campaign then made Popick agree to not to talk to the media.

So Popick sued the campaign to make back the $15,000 he's out because of all this. The Trump campaign hasn't responded.

Oh, if only they could go back to the good old days...

7 updates from Apple's iPhone 7 event that will make you hate your lame old iPhone 6.

$

The semi-annual Apple Special Event, a two-hour long infomercial for the company's latest doohickeys, was streamed live on Wednesday. This year's event debuted the iPhone 7, making you feel bad about your janky-ass iPhone 6 by introducing new features you didn't even know you needed. While Steve Jobs and his turtleneck are greatly missed, CEO Tim Cook was a masterful Master of Ceremonies, riding up to the event singing with James Corden and Pharrell.

Here are the seven things you need to know about how you're going to be spending your money this holiday season.

1. You'll have to choose between listening and charging.

After much speculation, Apple confirmed the rumor that they would be bidding farewell to the beloved earphone jack. The iPhone 7's fancy earphones now plug into the lightning charging port.

If you can't part with your old expensive Beats by Dr. Dre, there's an adapter, but it won't stop Apple from trying to make you adapt.


2. Air Pods are the new earphones.

This distractingly handsome man is wearing Air Pods, wireless earphones that Apple is pushing to replace your old earbuds. These little buds—made ridiculously easy to lose with the absence of a string even keeping them together—are so powerful that they need to be recharged after five hours.

That's right, you have to charge your headphones, but the case also has an extra battery, so you're going to have to charge your earphone case to charge your earphones.

Apple just keeps making life easier, not to mention ever closer to the universe of Her.


3. Feel free to get the iPhone 7 wet and dusty.

It's now safe to sit in the Splash Zone at Sea World with your iPhone (though it won't save you from the guilt of going to Sea World). The iPhone 7 is both water and dust resistant, so prepare for your Instagram feed be flooded with even more beach selfies, your friends' hot dog legs closer to the water than ever before.


4. Super Mario Run is the new Pokémon Go.

Mario, Luigi, Wario, and Waluigi are coming to your hand with a new game, Super Mario Run, that's set to give Pokémon Go a run for its money. People were pretty psyched about the fact that you can play it with only one hand, running through tunnels while holding onto a subway pole or holding hands with someone you love.

You can go to the App Store RIGHT NOW and have them notify you as soon it comes out.


5. If you're not over Pokémon Go, you can incorporate it into your workout.

To ingratiate the augmented reality of Pokémon Go even further, Pocket Monsters no longer exist solely on your phone, but now on your wrist. Pokémon Go for Apple Watch lets you hatch eggs while you walk, telling you the calories burned to more further incentivize getting off the couch.


6. You can full-on swim with the Apple Watch Series 2.

In all the time Katie Ledecky had between finishing her race and waiting for the silver medalist to arrive, she could have checked her email and caught some Pokémon on the new waterproof Apple Watch.


7. The iPhone 7 Plus has two cameras on the back, as though people take photos that aren't selfies.

For the fancy Instagrammers, the iPhone 7 Plus has both a wide angle and telephoto lenses with a heightened zoom capability. It might be enough to make you want to take a photo of someone else for once.

Now that you've seen the products, revel in the reactions.

Dr. Sandra Lee (a.k.a. Dr. Pimple Popper, a.k.a. our BFF for life) tackled a first-timer, metaphorically popping some dude's cherry by literally popping his giant untouched neck cyst. Dr. Lee says that she likes cysts that have never been touched because "they're unlikely to come back." We like them because we're disgusting.

Go ahead and start from the beginning—Dr. P.P. gets the sucker out in the first minute. The patient brought his mom along for ringside seats because "mama wants to see that, " but when "mama" was brought in for a closer look, all she could say was "wow.'

Lindsay Lohan's engagement to Egor Tarabasov seems to be over, but that doesn't mean he's getting the ring back. According to Page Six, Tarabasov is fine with his ex-fiancée keeping the $300,000 emerald ring he gave her, probably due to the fact that there's video evidence of him getting rough with her.

Tarabasov's parents allegedly don't want him to have anything more to do with Lohan, because they're afraid if the two stay together, their son will eventually end up in court. That's probably not unrealistic. A source told Page Six, "The father has told Egor, 'You had your Hollywood fling, now it’s time to move on to a Russian girl and start working.'"

Page Six's source claimed, "That's her severance package. When she runs out of money, she can sell it on 47th Street for $60,000." Wow, that's COLD. Only one-fifth of the value? Times are tough.

Turns out a lot of people might be lying about their 'gluten allergy.'

Have you ever had someone tell you they have a gluten allergy while they're eating a box of Triscuits? Yeah, this author has, and now we can call bullsh*t on these people because a new study found there hasn't been an increase in people with gluten allergies, meaning we've got a bunch LIARS on our hands!

As reported on LiveScience.com...

Researchers found that between 2009 and 2014, the percentage of people in the U.S. with celiac disease remained steady, while the percentage of Americans without the condition who stick to a gluten-free diet rose steadily over the same period.

Apparently, the percentage of Americans who follow a gluten-free diet is more than three times higher than the percentage of Americans with celiac disease, which is the main reason a doctor might suggest avoiding gluten. Basically, a bunch of people are giving up gluten without necessarily needing to.

Of course, there are plenty of people who actually do have celiac disease (a condition where your body can't process the gluten proteins found in wheat products.) If they eat wheat, it leads to diarrhea, bloating and weight loss a.k.a. zero fun times. These people should feel free to talk about their actual, real-life gluten allergy as much as they please.

As for the rest of you imposters, we get it, "diet" is a loaded word, and saying you have a gluten allergy is a less toxic way of saying I'm trying to lose weight, leave me alone. But like, as Laura Mazza put in her most awesome before/after baby body pics post...

... love your body, because you truly really really, only get one...

Calvin Harris speaks out about Taylor Swift's other breakup this summer (with him).

In a new interview in British GQ, Scottish DJ and former Taylor Swift boyfriend Calvin Harris (real name Adam Wiles) spoke a bit about the messy repercussions of a huge public split. It just so happens that Swift is now going through another split, this time from British actor Tom Hiddleston. Harris told the magazine:

It's very difficult when something I consider so personal plays out very publicly. The aftermath of the relationship was way more heavily publicized than the relationship itself. When we were together, we were very careful for it not to be a media circus. She respected my feelings in that sense. I'm not good at being a celebrity. But when it ended, all hell broke loose. Now I see that Twitter thing as a result of me succumbing to pressure. It took me a minute to realize that none of that matters. I'm a positive guy. For both of us it was the wrong situation. It clearly wasn't right, so it ended, but all of the stuff that happened afterwards...

What did happen afterwards? Some backstory, in case you missed the whole saga: Harris and Swift's breakup was initially very cordial, but then somebody on Team Taylor let slip the news that Swift had actually co-written Harris' hit song with Rihanna, "This Is What You Came For," and all hell broke loose. Harris went on Twitter and blasted Swift with a series of tweets that didn't name her, but were clearly aimed at her, including one that read, "I figure if you’re happy in your new relationship you should focus on that instead of trying to tear your ex-BF down for something to do."

Harris admits now that that was probably not the best way to handle things, but people don't always make the best decisions after breakups. He told British GQ, "It was completely the wrong instinct. I was protecting what I see as my one talent in the world being belittled." Hopefully Harris doesn't beat himself up too much about going a little nutso on social media—it's certainly not the worst thing you can do after a breakup.

A simple math problem with horseys has gone viral for being harder than it looks (but it's that not hard).

Algebra brain teasers are one of the few things that both go viral on Facebook and also give you some hope for humanity. This latest one has over 540,000 comments and almost 14,000 shares. Sure, we may be a self-obsessed species that will engage in celebrity worship right up until the day the Earth blows up, but at least we also like algebra problems involving horseys.

ركزوا جيداً لانه فيها خدعة و الجواب الصحيح هو ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Posted by Nejib Tej on Wednesday, August 17, 2016

The solution is below, but we'll let you work on it first.

Hint: Most of these viral math problems involve overlooking some obvious visual clue that your adult brain missed because it thinks it's soooo smart.

Ready? Here it is: there are two horseshoes and two boots. One boot (or horseshoe) is worth half as much as two boots. That was the big, obvious thing a lot of people missed: there's only one boot in the last line, but two boots in the third line. Some people also forgot BIMDAS (it was called PEMDAS in my day), aka "the order of operations": Brackets, Indices, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

Here's the solution written out:

3xHorse = 30
Horse = 10

Horse + (2Horseshoe) + (2Horseshoe) = 18
10 + 4Horseshoe = 18
4Horseshoe = 8
Horseshoe = 2

(2Horsheshoe) - (2Boot) = 2.
4 - 2Boot = 2
Boot = 1

Boot + Horse x Horseshoe = ???
1 + 10 x 2 = ???
1 + 20 = 21

If that last step threw you off, remember the order of operations: multiplication is done before addition.

There you go! Now you're ready to look really smart on Facebook and maybe even start 6th grade. If you want an actually impossible (but simple) math problem, try the Collatz Conjecture.
