How is it that a short week sometimes feels LONGER than a normal week? I don't understand time.

In case you missed it earlier this week:[ Our new book, *The Heir Affair,* has a cover and a release date and you can pre-order it now!](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/the-heir-affair-royal-we-sequel-02-2020/)

We had a[ grand chat about apps, which you might enjoy!](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/your-afternoon-chat-whats-your-favorite-boring-as-hell-but-useful-app-02-2020/)

And[ you should buy yourself a spot of leopard.](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/fug-nation-loves-leopard-print-2-02-2020/)

Really interesting, at NPR: ['Black Patriots' Were Heroes Of The Revolution — But Not The History Books](https://www.npr.org/2020/02/16/806006560/black-patriots-were-heroes-of-the-revolution-but-not-the-history-books?utm%5Fterm=nprnews&utm%5Fsource=twitter.com&utm%5Fcampaign=npr&utm%5Fmedium=social)

This piece on Vulture, [which is anonymous Hollywood assistants talking about the crazy shit their bosses have done to them](https://www.vulture.com/2020/02/anonymous-in-hollywood-assistants-share-stories-of-mistreatment.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), is a ride.

At The New Yorker, and in honor of the beginning of baseball season, [is this absolutely fantastic interview with Roger Angell, one of my favorite writers of all time](https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-new-yorker-interview/baseball-fiction-and-life-roger-angells-era-spanning-career-at-the-new-yorker?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). I cannot pick a pull quote, the entire thing is so good. (It's barely about baseball.)

Speaking of baseball: [The Astros Cheating Scandal Has Only Gotten Nuttier](https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/02/houston-astros-cheating-scandal.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Altuve should be stripped of his MVP!!!!!!!! \[NY Mag\]

This review of [The Crows Have Eyes III is very funny indeed.](https://decider.com/2020/02/20/schitts-creek-the-crows-have-eyes-3-review/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \[Decider\]

At Lainey, I chuckled at this headline: [Cannes has decided to try.](https://pubx.co/O0uitm?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

I read this with great interest: [How to save Laura Ashley: relaunch all its beautiful vintage dresses.](https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/shortcuts/2020/feb/18/laura-ashley-vintage-fashion-brand-crisis-collections??ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) This is absolutely true.

This is a hell of a piece at the LA Times: [The stranger-than-fiction twists that led to Robert Durst’s Los Angeles murder trial](https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-02-18/robert-durst-murder-trial-timeline?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

Also at Lainey: [Do I need to be watching *McMillions*](https://pubx.co/uE7A9g?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)?

[This obituary of Barbara Remington, who did all the Tolkien book covers in the 60s, is so so interesting](https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/15/books/barbara-remington-dead.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Those covers are iconic. \[NYT\]

At Pajiba, this was a very interesting essay from Roxana Hadadi: [If the ‘Capitalism is Bad’ Message of ‘Parasite’ Wasn’t Enough for You, Ken Loach’s ‘Sorry We Missed You’ Reiterates the Point](https://www.pajiba.com/film%5Freviews/the-timely-anticapitalist-messaging-of-ken-loachs-sorry-we-missed-you.php?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

At Punch Drink: [What Wine Twitter Taught Me About Wine](https://punchdrink.com/articles/what-wine-twitter-taught-me-about-wine-culture-james-suckling-jancis-robinson/??ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

At Celebitchy: [Ben Affleck opens up to the NYT: ‘The biggest regret of my life is this divorce’](https://www.celebitchy.com/652901/ben%5Faffleck%5Fopens%5Fup%5Fto%5Fthe%5Fnyt%5Fthe%5Fbiggest%5Fregret%5Fof%5Fmy%5Flife%5Fis%5Fthis%5Fdivorce/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) We all could have told you that, Benjo!

I can really only leave this headline here and tell you to read this, at WaPo: [A Hollywood stuntwoman died in a bizarre shootout with ‘celebrity nutritionist’ ex-husband](https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/02/18/exes-deadly-shootout/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). It is INSANE.

Also at WaPo: [We tried Pizza Hut’s mozzarella popper crust pizza and contemplated how we ended up here](https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/voraciously/wp/2020/02/14/we-tried-pizza-huts-mozzarella-popper-crust-pizza-and-contemplated-how-we-ended-up-here/??ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

Over at The Mary Sue, this is interesting:[ The Greeks May Get The Elgin Marbles Back … Thanks to Brexit?](https://www.themarysue.com/elgin-marbles-brexit/?utm%5Fsource=web&utm%5Fmedium=fuv&utm%5Fcampaign=linkswap)
