At this point Amanda Bynes is just a human spambot.

Jesus Christ, Lea Michele. If you're gonna humblebrag, learn how to be subtle about it. Better still, just stop.

I kind of love how BD Wong's post is taking a jab at Obama, yet his profile pic is all "I totally got to meet the prez this one time y'all!"

I did it last week (at 28 years old). A page in and it's back in the cupboard. I WAS NOT READY.

Oh Meghan. Always a day late and a few bucks short.

Did you make a cookie cutter from the British Vogue konami velociraptor? If so, can I come over for a fashion dinosaur cookie party?

Two things. First, Ms. McCain, it sounds like you're daring these people to send you some pretty sick pictures. Second, I am SO HAPPY that Mara Wilson is well-adjusted and funny. She was such a cute kid, I'm happy she escaped the fate of many other child actors.

Nice, I hope everyone does the book justice. Those of you who haven't read it - you should. This guy's story, holy shit. He's my role model when it comes to resilience and courage. I recommend getting it from the library instead of buying it, though, because this is not the sort of book you reread often.

"choke to death" can mean that the child aspirated the milk (inhaled it into their lungs).

Normally, when you breathe in, your diaphragm contracts. This creates negative pressure, which draws air into the lungs. If you inhale liquid, your larynx can spasm shut. This leaves you with negative pressure in the diaphragm —
