Rudy Giuliani Would Be Comic Relief If Any of This Was Funny
 
One of the most reliable joys of political journalism in this very weird political moment is the series of interviews that Isaac Chotiner is doing for The New Yorker. His latest is a chat with Rudy Giuliani and, yes, there are moments in it that will make you stop so hard that your eyeballs shoot out three feet and then snap back. This is one of them.

Black Panther Just Made History With the 2019 Oscar Nominations
 
Perhaps the biggest story out of this year's Oscar nominations is Black Panther being the first superhero movie to ever be nominated for Best Picture. This nomination comes 10 years after Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight sparked a major change in the Academy Awards. After that film was robbed of a Best Picture nomination in 2008, the Academy increased the number of possible nominees for Best Picture from five to 10. Check out the rest of the nominees here.

We Need to Accept We're Likely Underestimating the Climate Crisis
 
Three new studies that indicate the climate crisis is more dire than we thought mean that the time has come to completely reframe the way we talk about the climate crisis. It is no longer acceptable to equivocate or muddy the waters on the question of whether climate change is real and man-made. Everyone who studies it, and whose work is vetted by the wider scientific community and come out the other side as accepted, says that it is.

The Two Fyre Festival Docs Show Very Different Sides of Poisonous Influencer Culture
 
What really happened at the ill-fated Fyre Festival and its shady creator? That's what both Netflix and Hulu aim to explore with rival documentaries. Netflix announced its highly-anticipated documentary Fyre: The Greatest Party That Never Happened late in 2018, but on the week of its release, Hulu scooped the mega-streamer by releasing Fyre Fraud. I've watched both documentaries, and I can tell you that you should do the same if you really want a comprehensive picture of the disastrous Fyre Festival. This is what I learned.

Celebrities in the '70s Off-Duty: The Photos
 
In the 1970s, you could see a celebrity traipsing down the street in a leotard, rollerskating in nothing but a vest, or sunbathing, topless, on the beach. (Okay, you might see that today as well.) They were on vacation, or generally off duty, which is what the following 20 photos show. What you'll notice in many of them is a certain look in their eyes, a devilishness that anyone with a job knows. It says: I'm not working. It's a good feeling. Read More
