Donald Trump's Visit to Mt. Vernon Sounds Like Taking a Grade Schooler on a Field Trip
 
Our president went to visit Mt. Vernon, the historic home of George Washington, with French President Emmanuel Macron last April. As Politico reports, it was predictably presidential: Trump suggested, maybe jokingly, that if Washington was smart he "would've put his name on" the property, because you never see that name anywhere. He asked whether Washington was "really rich" amid the tour guide's discussion of Washington's real-estate holdings—an attempt to hold Trump's attention. Apparently, hitting a museum with the President of the United States isn't far removed from visiting one with a 14-year-old. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
For Dan Levy, the End of Schitt's Creek Is Just the Beginning
 
Esquire's Justin Kirkland recently sat down with Dan Levy to talk about his sitcom Schitt's Creek. Shortly after, it was announced that the next season would be its last. Thinking back on their lunch, it almost seemed like Levy was hinting at it. "I'm excited for what's to come, but I also care so deeply about this show, and I think so many times showrunners will set up a show and jump ship to work on something else," he said. "I couldn't imagine doing that with this show." Read More

But too many shirts are static. Very few times is any old shirt a perfect shirt. This Indo one from Allsaints? It's perfect. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
Trump's Very Bad Batman Campaign Video Has Been Taken Down After Warner Bros. Took Legal Action

Such is the story of Donald Trump's first 2020 election advertisement, which was posted and removed in a matter of hours on Tuesday. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The First-Ever Image of a Black Hole Is Terrifying and a Little Blurry
 
Here's a cooler photo than that overhead lunch shot you put on your Instagram Story: On Wednesday, the National Science Foundation revealed the first-ever image of an actual black hole. It was a triumph for the Event Horizon Telescope, or EHT, as being able to see—let alone capture—a black hole had been considered impossible. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
Fosse/Verdon Is Just Another Show About a Tortured Genius
 
What Bob Fosse could do as a choreographer and director was wake you up. Even in his purposefully restrained movements, they were a jolt, provocative in their implications and exciting in their execution. But the eight-episode FX miniseries Fosse/Verdon is an enormously disappointing approximation of the spirit of the work of Fosse and Gwen Verdon, a legendary dancer and star in her own right.
