What's more precious than young people finding love? Old people finding love. Then doin' it. [Slate]

The newly-made-over, sorta-sexy Strawberry Shortcake kind-of freaks us out. [Jezebel] 

If Queen Latifah is a lesbian, she might be planning to wed her long-time girlfriend in California soon. [Jossip] 

Mass dolphin suicide is the saddest thing we've heard all day. [Guardian]

Mel Gibson and Britney Spears apparently had a smokin' date at an exclusive cigar club. But it was all business, like most meetings involving an older man, a troubled young woman and a cigar. Mmhmm. [People]

What the hell? It's bad enough that all the children's toys and cartoon characters they make NOW have to be all sexed up a la Bratz dolls. Now they have to go back and defile the ones I grew up with? What kind of message is this to be sending to little girls? Can't they have at least a short period in life when pretty or cute is defined as something besides sexy and can't that period be at the age of fucking 5? Jeez Louise...

I feel bad for my future kids. Other kids are going to laugh at them so much for being out-of-touch because I'm not going to let them get anywhere near the shit they're selling to kids now. The jezebel commentary about talking down to kids and assuming that they don't want to see anything they don't know is spot on. It would be a stretch to say that the eighties were a more enlightened time but at least, when I was a kid, there was media, like Mister Rogers and Fraggle Rock that actually sought to TEACH kids stuff that they didn't know and introduce them to knew ideas, instead of assuming that kids are all a bunch of morons.
