Have a great weekend, y’all! Here’s some stuff to read:

Do you need a backpack? YOU MIGHT!

We had a fun chat earlier this week about SPOOOOOOOKY BOOKS.

This is a very good piece, at Vogue: If You Think Elizabeth Warren Is Lying, You’ve Never Been a Woman in the Workplace.

I needed this, at The Cut: Praise Holly, America’s Fattest Bear and Role Model to All

I also REALLLY needed this, via Vox: Two British footballers’ wives are feuding. It’s the perfect Brexit palate cleanser.

At Lainey, this is so good: Mindy Kaling Teaches Bullsh-t Detection

This is an amazing story, at ESPN: Abandoned in London as a child, Efe Obada returns as NFL player

This is delicious, at the New York Times: Inside the Pizza Convention, the Cheesiest Event in Atlantic City

At Pajiba, this may well be true: Jason Mendoza from ‘The Good Place’ is The Greatest TV Character in Recent Memory

This is a ride, at Interview: FUTURE FOLKLORE: AN UNEDITED E-MAIL CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN REI KAWAKUBO AND BJÖRK. Whoa, I didn’t mean that headline to cut and paste in all caps…and yet it feels right.

At Celebitchy, I did NOT know this on-going drama was on-going and yet I already have a lot of thoughts!!!: Jana Kramer finds cheating texts on husband’s phone ‘every time’ she looks

Also good at Lainey: Ellen DeGeneres and the limits of nice

Over at Socialite Life: Flip or Flop Stars Christina Anstead and Tarek El Moussa’s Real Estate Seminars Shut Down by FTC. (I watched that show ONCE and yet I find this fascinating?????)

This is interesting, at the New York Times: Up for Auction: Snapshots of Jackie Kennedy in India and Pakistan

At Collectors’ Weekly:  Made for Misfits: The Colorful History of the Black Leather Jacket

At The Mary Sue, I’m relieved Keanu continues to be Good: Keanu Reeves Is Just a Normal Guy Who Likes Experimental Theater. (There’s more to the story!)
