Friday at last! As a programming note, Wills & Kate have an outing planned for Sunday (I believe), and we’ll cover it here, so pop on by if your weekend gets boring and cross your fingers she wears, like, a coconut bra whilst he sports plaid shorty shorts. Until then:
– You have until Sunday night to enter to win a GiGi New York Hayden satchel, so make sure you do so, if you’re interested!
– As a reminder, if you live somewhere other than the United States or Canada, and you wanted to read The Royal We on e-book but were previously thwarted, AT LAST it’s out all over the place on Kindle and iBooks and whatnot, in many many many many countries, from the Netherlands to India to Australia to the UK! GO FORTH AND READ.
– One of my favorite parts of Trainwreck was Tilda Swinton, who looks miraculously unSWINTON with long hair and spray tan. It’s genius. Stylist has a whole slideshow of similar transformations.

–There was a new X-Files trailer this week — it has, like, six words in it, and Scully’s line delivery is SO SCULLY that I actually laughed out loud. (YouTube)
– I love this discussion on Zulkey about The Dumbest Stuff People Have In Their Kitchens. You guys, I have a cast iron mold for mini Pineapple Upside Down cakes. Although, in fairness, mini Pineapple Upside Down cakes are ADORABLE and the one time I made them they were a huge hit so…worth it.
– Pajiba has the pitch video that convinced ABC to bring back The Muppet Show.
