Something happened at a very special party over the weekend. It was like stars aligning. It was a meeting of the minds. It was like peanut butter meeting jelly, the sunset meeting the beach, cats meeting the Internet. Kim Kardashian met the CEO and co-founder of Instagram, Kevin Systrom. And then she posted a photo of them together. On Instagram. Oh my Yeezus, it's so meta I've got a headache now.

But this is some way for Kim to come out of hiding. Um, she's still in the shadows. Kim, why are you hiding? Is this on purpose? You know we already saw you in a flannel at the doctor's, right? (Awesome chambry cover-all, by the way. I totally bought five just like it as soon as I saw that photo.) Here she's practically behind Kevin. Hey Kim, it's not like you to be so camera shy.

Well anyway, still exciting for her. I just picture Kim shaking Kevin's hand and saying, "Oh wowww, you invented like the next best thing to TV. Instagram is like my faaavorite." 'Your favorite app?" Kevin asks. "My favorite TOY!" And then Kim pulls out a phone and takes a selfie, which Kevin photobombs. Just kidding, of course Kim wanted him in the frame. She's prettier than he is.

Or was taking the Kevin photo just another way for Kim to take a selfie without revealing anything from the neck down? Oh who cares, she looks great and has a big smile. Excellent use of shadows there.

So the woman who normally can't wait for the world to see her latest outfit, who blows thousands getting ready for every event, who makes a point of getting her photo taken in just the right lighting -- this is what we get? Man, I don't even KNOW YOU anymore, Kim! I bet Kanye loved this look, though.

Do you think Kim is feeling camera shy because of the baby weight?

Disabled Daughter Left Handcuffed to Bed While Mom Attends a Wedding

A mother in Maryland could be facing some serious jail time after her mentally disabled daughter was found wandering around a North Carolina hotel this weekend. Tiffany Davis was at a wedding at the time, and it seems she didn't want her teenager, who has the mental capacity of a 3- or 4-year-old, along. Cops say she'd handcuffed her daughter to the hotel bed!

Kind of makes you wonder why she brought her along for the trip to North Carolina at all, doesn't it? But thank goodness she did.

Imagine, for just a second, if Davis' 19-year-old daughter had been left back home in Maryland.

Not only would a mentally handicapped girl have been left alone -- as she was at the hotel -- but who would have found her?

It's sad when this is the bright side of a story, but the fact is, there is some good here. The girl managed to get loose of her shackles, cops say, and she left the room. She was found, taken good care of, and mom was arrested.

Davis was jailed in Gaston County Jail on a $100,000 secured bond. Cops say they found handcuffs and a dog leash in the hotel room, and they have the witnesses from the hotel who shared enough info to substantiate a neglect charge against the 37-year-old Maryland mother.

A perfect ending?

No. Not even a happy one, necessarily, but this is life, not a fairy tale.

The fact is, if this poor girl hadn't been left in that hotel room, who knows what would have happened to her with a mother like that. This was, in essence, her ticket out of there, her chance to be rescued.

And from the sounds of the charges against her mom, it was about darn time.

What do you make of this horror story?
