Chronically Online: The week of Kylie

The best of the internet, right here, right now

FRIDAY, July 22 2022 Happy Friday!   This week we saw Kylie's crocodile tears in full force at Target, those weird American Girl memes, chia seed poop, and some more Elon news. Enjoy, stay cool, and have a fab weekend! ✨ Scully and Scully / Via scullyandscully.com The Week Of Kylie From allegedly doing a 3-minute jaunt on a private jet to a supposed wedding registry  showing crystal pieces, it seems like this week is a Kylie grab bag of sorts. Only Kylie could top it off with some sort of "damage control" visit at Target. She's definitely out of touch, that's for sure. But, if we're outraged with Kylie, shouldn't we be even more bummed out that time when Kim chartered a blinged out 777 for her Tahitian birthday party or a 747 a few years back? It seems like flying a gas-guzzling 777 halfway across the globe is a lot tougher on the planet than a 3-minute flight on a dinky little plane. But more importantly, before we get up in arms with this stuff, do we actually know if Kylie was on the 3-minute flight or if the plane was just getting moved around?   Questions aside, can we all agree how tacky some of the stuff on that alleged registry is, if it really is hers? We're all for shiny things, say healing crystals, but crystal cacti might just be too much.   @hellicity_merriman/ Instagram American Girl? If you've been seeing all those American Girl doll memes out there, well, there's a reason for that: Barrett Adair, 27, and her best friend, "C," both co-creators of the page @hellicity_merriman. Don't forget @inbloombyemily on TikTok either! TBH, I ~still~ don't understand American Girl dolls, and why people go crazy about them. But, the memes make sense...sorta. Shelby Heinrich/BuzzFeed Chia Seed Poop I have a bit of a love-hate relationship with chia seeds. I'm kinda skeptical of miracle health foods, and I've always put chia seeds in that category. But, not according to this doc.  In fact, chia seeds help with your poop, especially if you chase it with a lemon-water mixture (TMI: "Water is used to help stool become more congealed, and your body needs water in order for it to make stool more formed, and softer so it can pass easily.") Right: @elonmusk/ Twitter Left: Dimitrios Kambouris / Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue Oh, Elon What comes around, goes around. We all remember that infamous tweet that Elon did, purportedly body shaming Bill Gates. Well, everyone's going crazy this week, thanks to shirtless photographs of his physique surfacing online, of whether Elon "deserves" the clap back. It seems like Elon does have a sense of humor, but body-shaming is bad. Period.  @PAVGOD / Twitter Stay Cool: If only we could all grab some shut-eye in a fridge...   Read: The happy caravan (aka TikTok's de la Motte fam) is coming for us.   Follow: Little Miss.
