Happy Friday, friends! May your weekend be either restful or a rager, depending on how you roll. We have much for you to read.

If you missed it in between the Globes coverage, and the Critics Choice Awards, [we DID cover last weekend's figure skating](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/us-figure-skating-national-championships-01-2018/)!

At The Daily Beast: [Mark Wahlberg Is Sleazy and Opportunistic. Should We Be Surprised? ](https://www.thedailybeast.com/mark-wahlberg-is-sleazy-and-opportunistic-should-we-be-surprised?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)(Edited to add: [News also broke today that Marky Mark withheld casting approval of Christopher Plummer until his fee was agreed to](https://www.vulture.com/2018/01/whalberg-reportedly-leveraged-co-star-approval-for-all-the-money-in-the-world-reshoots-fee.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). I personally think he's been a shitbag for years, so none of this is surprising, but why people continue to work with him is beyond me.)

This is an incredible piece at the New York Times: [How I Learned to Look Believable](https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/01/03/style/dressing-for-sexual-harassment-hearings.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

At The Cut: [I Started the Media Men List. My name is Moira Donegan.](https://www.thecut.com/2018/01/moira-donegan-i-started-the-media-men-list.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

At Pajiba: [If Joy and Unicorns Could be Transformed into a Person that Person Would Be Taika Waititi](https://www.pajiba.com/celebrities%5Fare%5Fbetter%5Fthan%5Fyou/taika-waititi-thor-ragnarok-behind-the-scenes-dvd-video.php?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) (definitely watch the video in the embedded tweet.) He IS a DELIGHT.[ I watched What We Do In the Shadows over the holiday and you guys. It's the best.](https://amzn.to/2D4D5PE?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

At Lainey: [Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon were GREAT at the Critics' Choice Awards](https://pubx.co/2E6QdT?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io); I loved The Big Sick.

At Revelist: [TopShop is selling jeans that say "FAKE NEWS" along the side of the leg and I do not even get this.](https://www.revelist.com/style-news/topshop-fake-news/11125?utm%5Fsource=gofugyourself.com&utm%5Fmedium=cpm) Are they saying you should wear jeans that imply your legs are a lie? Are they implying that your jeans are stable geniuses, the best jeans, the most tremendous jeans, but that your legs are haters and losers? This is a very confusing piece of clothing. And they're selling out!

At Celebitchy: [James Franco skipped the Critics Choice Awards, but will he be Oscar-nominated?](https://www.celebitchy.com/562641/james%5Ffranco%5Fskipped%5Fthe%5Fcritics%5Fchoice%5Fawards%5Fbut%5Fwill%5Fhe%5Fbe%5Foscar-nominated/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) Very good question indeed.

I loved this, at Girl of a Certain Age: [On Living Alone.](https://girlofacertainage.com/2018/01/12/week-of-requests-on-living-alone/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

I thought this was interesting, at Refinery29: [The Best Brands To Re-Sell (By State!), According To Poshmark](https://www.refinery29.com/poshmark-best-brands-items-to-re-sell-2018?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). (That headline is misleading, though. It's not by state -- it's by region.) I don't use Poshmark, because it seems like a lot of work, but on the other hand, I think ThredUp is a low-key scam for sellers (I've certainly used it, because it's a bit of money for pieces The Real Real won't take, and I would have donated the stuff I sent them anyway, but I think they are turning around and re-selling items they tell you they can't sell themselves and keeping the money and I am just going back to donating to charities in my hometown again. This is literally based on nothing but my own interactions with them and a gut feeling, so take that as you will.).

Finally (also at Lainey), [do you need some Chris Evans in his Captain America outfit right now?](https://pubx.co/6iKqzG?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) I thought so.
