You guys, I'm so tired this week! WHY IS THAT? Maybe I have SAD and I never knew it because Los Angeles has never IN HISTORY been this cold and rainy. Anyway, here's some stuff to read.

Luke Perry died and I'm really sad. [This is what I wrote about it.](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/in-the-category-of-incredibly-terrible-news-luke-perry-is-dead-03-2019/)

This is SO GOOD, at Decider: [Remembering The “Fellini Summer” Of Julia Roberts: A Broken Engagement, An Emergency Hospital Stay, And Clashes With Steven Spielberg.](https://decider.com/2019/03/07/julia-roberts-fellini-summer/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) Can you imagine if that had happened in the age of the internet?

I rounded up some [cute low-heeled shoes that you probably will be able to walk in](https://www.gofugyourself.com/fug-nation-loves-cute-lower-heeled-shoes-03-2019?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).

We also had [another great book chat](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/what-are-you-reading-3-03-2019/).

Speaking of books, this is right up my street, at the New York Times: [Behold, the Tiniest of Books](https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/07/books/tiny-books-grolier-club.html??ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

This is a great piece at The Atlantic, [about *Reality Bites* (and its very under-appreciated screenwriter)](https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2019/03/reality-bites-captured-gen-x-25-years-later-helen-childress/583870/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).

Fascinating, at The Guardian: ['Underwear dates well': how fashion forensics are helping solve crimes](https://www.theguardian.com/global/2019/mar/03/underwear-dates-well-how-fashion-forensics-are-helping-solve-crimes?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

At Lainey, did you know Rita Ora was dating Andrew Garfield? [NOT ANYMORE](https://pubx.co/raqeXa?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)!

At Town & Country: [You Have the Founding Mothers of Champagne to Thank for the Bubbly You Drink Today](https://www.townandcountrymag.com/leisure/drinks/a26592142/women-champagne-history-veuve-cliquot/??ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

I'm glad Drew Magary didn't die, for a lot of reasons, but one of them is pieces like this, at Deadspin: [Stop Enabling Barstool's Shit](https://deadspin.com/stop-enabling-barstools-shit-1833092349?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

This is really interesting and good, at the New York Times: [The 25 Songs That Matter Right Now.](https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/03/07/magazine/top-songs.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

Also at Lainey: [Brie Larson and Samuel L. Jackson are so great together](https://pubx.co/OWZ1D6?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).

At Pajiba, this was really interesting: [The Most Gripping 'Ask Me Anything' in a Long Time is About Glaciers](https://www.pajiba.com/reddit/the-most-gripping-ask-me-anything-in-a-long-time-is-about-glaciers.php?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

Over at Celebitchy, this is such a huge bummer: [‘Jeopardy’ host Alex Trebek, 78, was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer](https://www.celebitchy.com/612703/jeopardy%5Fhost%5Falex%5Ftrebek%5F78%5Fwas%5Fdiagnosed%5Fwith%5Fstage%5F4%5Fpancreatic%5Fcancer/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

Vogue piece [about women doing the Iditarod is really neat](https://www.vogue.com/projects/13549158/iditarod-race-alaska-women-mushers/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).

I really enjoyed this, at Arc: [On Schmaltz: How a Jewish cookbook helped me recover my lost heritage](https://arcdigital.media/on-schmaltz-f543c8347637?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

At The Mary Sue, I'm excited for this! [Mindy Kaling and Emma Thompson are Comedy Gold in *Late Night* Trailer](https://www.themarysue.com/mindy-kailing-emma-thompson-late-night-trailer/?utm%5Fsource=web&utm%5Fmedium=fuv&utm%5Fcampaign=linkswap)

Finally, I'm going to share something from a Fug National, who runs a camp for trans kids and their families every summer, who you may remember from previous years:

> "Hi! I’m Tina, a longtime reader here and I’ve put together a weekend camp for transgender youth and their families: [Tertium Quid](https://www.tertiumquidcamp.com/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). 2019 is its third year, and it’s fully funded by donations from individuals and a few grants. The camp is free to attend and fully staffed with volunteers. GFY readers have been loyal supporters since Year One – thank you! I wanted to let you know that we still – always – need your help, in whatever form it may take. Financial donations (tax-deductible!) are always welcome, of course, and you can donate through our [support page](https://tertiumquidcamp.com/support-us/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). BUT if you’d like to help in other ways, like volunteer your time, help with supplies (we do a lot of crafty things!) or any other idea (or just want to learn more) – please reach out! It’s an amazing weekend for the children and families, and it wouldn’t happen without your help, so THANK YOU AGAIN!"

Tina then added as an aside that *Project Runway's* Austin Scarlett came to the camp last year and MADE CAPES WITH THE KIDS FOR THEIR FASHION SHOW!!!! If there is anything that Fug Nation supports as a group, I do think it's capes.
