  • A reminder from Jezebel: next time you’re feeling all warm and fuzzy about those Dove ads geared towards boosting women’s self-esteem, think of this crap, also purveyed by Dove’s parent company, Unilever. Still not convinced? Check out the video above.
  • Looking for the perfect Mother’s Day present? Apparently Mom might enjoy a date with Edward Cullen (and she wouldn’t be the only one).
  • Much discussed on Digg and elsewhere is this provocative, disturbing, powerful PSA about the potentially haunting legacy of sexual abuse. Shudder.
  • What’s in your inbox? If you’d blogged the winning post in her contest about what the Commonwealth means to you, there’d be a message from Queen Elizabeth. If only we’d known about this competition in advance…
  • Too bad: unfortunate blow job comment marrs otherwise cute Flight of the Conchords story.
  • Hold the phone! Beauty pageants aren’t just about personality!
  • And finally, has Susan Boyle got you reaching for your dreams?
