What a world, what a world, to quote the current US Poet Laureate, the Witched Witch of the West. Hope you're doing okay.

Some chats that you might find of interest:

Do you want to buy a [spring dress in the hopes we'll get to wear some outside one day? Behold](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/fug-nation-loves-cute-little-spring-dresses-04-2020/)!

And elsewhere:

I wonder if People is going to run more of these sorts of stories, now that we've got less celebrity news -- and it's worth noting that People has a LONG history of true crime coverage: [Oregon Romance Novelist Allegedly Killed Husband for $1M Insurance Policy. ](https://people.com/crime/oregon-romance-novelist-allegedly-killed-husband-insurance-money/?fbclid=IwAR1cvLvsQEod5KXIZn3Cg0nSYSWaK06cPujSPxKEUVzbw21oMzfdSnUx5Mg&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)

Also at Lainey, I laughed at this headline: [Celebrity Quarantine Face Panic](https://www.laineygossip.com/civilians-and-male-celebrities-just-as-worried-about-missed-botox-appointments-as-female-celebrities/66149?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). I *bet* some of them are panicking!

At Teen Vogue: [Costume Designer Shiona Turini on *Insecure*, Issa Rae and Black Fashion Designers](https://www.teenvogue.com/story/costume-designer-shiona-turini-insecure-interview?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). I follow [Shiona Turini on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/shionat/?hl=en&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), and every Monday, she has a story with inside info about the previous evening's episode's wardrobe and cool behind the scenes stuff; it's always really illuminating and logistics-y.
