Matthew Perry was reportedly trying to get a biopic of his life made, and he was hoping his 17 Again co-star Zac Efron would play him.

I’m a dad, and I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’d wear Chris Pratt’s outfit way before you caught me dead in whatever boot thing Rob Lowe has going on. I also spend 75% of my day in pajama pants, so I have no business even thinking about fashion. Moving on! (Lainey Gossip)

I cannot stress this enough. Right-wing Christian weirdos are an absolute threat to every single person in this country and it’s imperative they are voted out every election even if the Democratic candidate isn’t a golden unicorn that magically gobbles up your student loan debt and/or tweets #FreePalestine every five seconds. (Rolling Stone)

Nia DaCosta saw that Variety report about her supposedly leaving post-production on The Marvels, and you’re damn right she’s setting the record straight. (Uproxx)

Spurred by a negative review of her favorite national park, the Grand Canyon, author and illustrator Amber Share created Subpar Parks: America’s Most Extraordinary National Parks and Their Least Impressed Visitors. Leedock calls it, “Beautifully illustrated and lovingly narrated.” Do you remember a bad review that offended you? (Cannonball Read 15)
