Murderous dentists! Cults! Theatrical teenagers! Face mists! - Author: Jessica - Tags: Fugs and Pieces, #wp, #wp-post, #Import 2026-10-07 07:51 Happy 4th of July weekend to our American readers! We'll be posting on a relaxed schedule Monday and Tuesday, although we'll have a few bits and pieces for you if you get bored, and back to normal on Wednesday, July 5th. Until then: \-- Do you need new sunglasses? [We've got you.](https://www.gofugyourself.com/fug-nation-loves-sunglasses-06-2017?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- *Esquire* examines: [What Makes *A League of Their Own* One of the Best Baseball Movies Ever Made](https://www.esquire.com/entertainment/movies/a56013/a-league-of-their-own-best-baseball-movie/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). It really is a great movie. (And, not for nothing, one Halloween many moons ago, I went as one of the Bees -- my roommate at the time worked for Sony, and they used to let you check out costumes from their costume department, which was a GREAT perk -- and I have never NEVER had a more positive-yet-respectful response from dudes than I did in that costume.) \-- You're going to love this piece at the *New York Times:* [Heard of the Jimmys? It’s the Tonys, for Teenagers](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/27/theater/jimmy-awards.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- You're going to want to read [Lainey's take on the new Serena Williams *Vanity Fair* cover](https://www.laineygossip.com/pregnant-serena-williams-covers-vanity-fair/47334?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) (which is spectacular \[the cover, I mean\]). \-- Are you watching *GLOW?* I just started it, and so far I LOVE it. [And this is exactly what I wanted to read: The Do-it-Yourself Style Charm of ‘GLOW.’](https://observer.com/2017/06/the-do-it-yourself-style-charm-of-glow/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) The costumes are AMAZING. \-- You DO want to look at [this slideshow of Crispin Glover's Czech chateau, which used to be a Communist medical testing facility](https://www.architecturaldigest.com/gallery/crispin-glover-czech-chateau?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) which makes totally sense. He's restored a LOT of frescos. \[Architectual Digest\] \-- Jezebel reports: [In Sync We Trust: Pop Music's History of Lip-Syncing (and Lying About It)](https://themuse.jezebel.com/in-sync-we-trust-pop-musics-history-of-lip-syncing-an-1791634821?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- Spin had [an interesting report on the events at MTV News this week, wherein basically everyone on their writing staff was laid off as the site "pivots to video,"](https://www.spin.com/featured/the-mtv-news-experiment/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) despite the fact that no one who is reading the internet at work while pretending to be actually working can watch a video and would honestly just rather skim the article in question. \-- I think you'll enjoy this, at Pajiba: [There’s Been a Murder: Reading Scottish Crime Novels as an Actual Scottish Person](https://www.pajiba.com/book%5Freviews/theres-been-a-murder-reading-scottish-crime-novels-as-an-actual-scottish-person.php?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- I appreciated[ this post about FACE MISTS at Into the Gloss because I am obsessed with them](https://intothegloss.com/2017/06/how-face-mist-works/?utm%5Fmedium=itg&utm%5Fsource=aggregate&utm%5Fcampaign=partner&utm%5Fcontent=gfy) even though I don't know if they do anything. \-- The piece at Racked is a lot more moving than you'd think, just from the headline: [The Second Life of Clothing You Donate.](https://www.racked.com/2017/6/29/15854528/donate-clothing-made-downton-womens-center?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) It's about, in part, homeless women in Los Angeles, and the power of clothing, and I'm so glad I read it. \-- At the LA Times: [In a temple that predates the pyramids, scientists find evidence of a mysterious 'skull cult'.](https://www.latimes.com/science/sciencenow/la-sci-sn-skull-cult-cuts-20170628-htmlstory.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) Right right. I feel like I'm in a skull cult right now, tbh. \-- Vox wonders[ how the books editor of the New York Times decides what to read.](https://www.vox.com/conversations/2017/6/28/15876772/pamela-paul-interview-summer-reading?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- Atlas Obscura wonders: [Want to Transcribe Rare Magical Manuscripts on Your Lunch Break?](https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/newberry-library-transcribing-manuscripts?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- Revelist reports: [There's a $10,000 bikini made out of actual pizza](https://www.revelist.com/style-news/pizza-bikini/8248?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). HOW MUCH IS THAT PIZZA WORTH?! \-- This is a really good piece from The New Yorker, one of those articles I started to read when I flipped through the magazine standing at my mailbox, and then ended up standing out there for fifteen minutes: [My Dentist's Murder trial.](https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/07/03/my-dentists-murder-trial?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- Per Celebitchy, [Rihanna has a new boyfriend and he's a Saudi billionaire. ](https://www.celebitchy.com/540835/rihanna%5Fsaudi%5Fbillionaire%5Fhassan%5Fjameel%5Fare%5Fapparently%5Fthe%5Freal%5Fdeal/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)Good for you, RiRi! (Please note: I would also say, "good for you, RiRi!" if her new boyfriend were a penniless hottie, because goodness knows she doesn't need some dude's money. They look very happy together! I JUST WANT HER TO BE HAPPY.) \-- Grubstreet examines: [What It’s Really Like to Cook for New York’s Most Influential Restaurant Critics](https://www.grubstreet.com/2017/06/cooking-for-restaurant-critics.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- This may end badly for me:[ Amazon Introduces Prime For Clothes](https://www.refinery29.com/2017/06/160735/amazon-prime-clothes-fashion-retail?utm%5Fsource=gfy&utm%5Fmedium=syndication) \[Refinery29\]
