We'll be live-tweeting the red carpet, both on our Twitter ([we're at FugGirls](https://www.twitter.com/fuggirls?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)) and for [the Today show's style department, at TodayStyle](https://twitter.com/TODAYstyle?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)! Follow either -- or both -- and chat it up with us. (And we'll obviously have full Oscars coverage on Monday, as usual, here at GFY.) Until then: \-- Hey, Southern California! **Heather and I are happy to be included on a panel discussing "making art in the current political climate" at The Ripped Bodice in Culver City on March 23th at 7pm.** Come by and see us, Akela Cooper, Sarah MacLean, Beth Scorzato, Alisha Rai, Sarah Kuhn, and Lindsay Ellis at the cutest bookstore in town. [Tickets are FREE and you can RSVP here (so they have enough booze).](https://www.therippedbodicela.com/events-and-tickets?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) We'd love to see you there! \-- This is interesting, and I think you'll want to read about it: [Lady Jane Franklin, the Woman Who Fueled 19th-Century Polar Exploration](https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/cool-lady-jane-franklin-polar-exploration?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). \[Atlas Obscura\] \-- This is beautifully written, and very moving, at *Elle:* [The Interminable Weeks Between a Bad Sonogram and the End of a Pregnancy](https://www.elle.com/life-love/a43191/bad-sonogram-pregnancy/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- Fascinating, at *Smithsonian:* P[erfectly Preserved Shipwreck Found in Lake Superior](https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/perfectly-preserved-shipwreck-found-lake-superior-180961070/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- This essay has been making the rounds, so you may have read it already, but if you haven't, I recommend it: [Reflecting on one very, very strange year at Uber](https://www.susanjfowler.com/blog/2017/2/19/reflecting-on-one-very-strange-year-at-uber?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- This was SO SO JUICY and fascinating, at Vulture: [Why Was *Times* Theater Critic Charles Isherwood Fired?](https://www.vulture.com/2017/02/why-was-times-theater-critic-charles-isherwood-fired.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- You guys, Nick Cannon named his new baby Golden. [The kid is named Golden Cannon](https://pubx.co/k07q3r?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). My own personal rule of thumb is that if your last name is a noun, your first name should not be an adjective. \[Lainey\] \-- This is so good, and so so logistically fascinating, at Fashionista: [How Celebrity Stylist Ilaria Urbinati Found Her Niche With Menswear](https://fashionista.com/2017/02/ilaria-urbinati-menswear-interview?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- At the *New York Times*: [A New Crisis Hits Ukraine: Turmoil at the Eurovision Song Contest.](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/16/world/europe/eurovision-ukraine-2017.html?%5Fr=1&mtrref=gofugyourself.com&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) WHY CAN'T WE HAVE NICE THINGS? \-- Oooh,[ the new *Twin Peaks* posters are here.](https://www.nylon.com/articles/twin-peaks-poster-release?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) (One is above, you can see the other at Nylon. It is NOT Bob.) \-- At Revelist, [100 thoughts I had while waiting 11 hours to get into The Kylie Shop](https://pubx.co/eZwQxF?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Yes, one of them was (essentially) WHY. Having said that, I *would* go to a Kylie *Minogue* shop. \-- Ugh, [Tom and Gisele are the co-chairs of the Met Gala this year](https://pubx.co/lkyXWu?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). The theme is, and I quote, "the work of Japanese fashion designer Rei Kawakubo, known for her avant-garde designs and ability to challenge conventional notions of beauty, good taste, and fashionability." The coverage at Lainey gets into this in depth, but: COME ON. \[Lainey\] \-- The *LA Times* asks:[ Can you guess the dress?](https://www.latimes.com/projects/la-ig-oscars-fashion-quiz-2017/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) (It's Oscars frocks.

Margo Martindale was up for CJ Cregg on *The West Wing!* I LOVE La Janney in that part, obviously, but I would have loved to see Martindale play it, just once, in an alternate universe. \-- Also, I love the folks at Lainey for [worrying that Mae Whitman's new pilot is going to get in the way of *The Royal We* movie.](https://pubx.co/EztGNb?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) (I don't have any news about that at the moment -- but I mostly just love that they even thought of that.
