Since the end of Bennifer v2.0, the tabloids are constantly trying to rumour that Ben Affleck might be getting back together with Jennifer Garner. And turning what’s not really there into what *might* be there even though, well, there’s nothing there.
As I’ve always said about this situation, even though I understand the gossip compulsion for it – because Ben swinging back and forth between the Jennifers in his life comes straight out of a soap opera – it’s not realistic, not in the real world and not in the celebrity world. And the math probability of it for Ben, who’s already done something so rare once, must be low AF. You see things you can unsee about a person when you divorce them, even when the divorce is amicable.
Here's Jennifer with her boyfriend of many years John Miller in New York the other day. If this were a Chinese or Korean drama, we’d call it a couples of outfit, matching blue. It happens a lot, especially on modern shows. If two people are dressed similarly, in similar colours, this is the OTP, or who you’re supposed to root for as the OTP. I’m not saying that Jen and John are OTP, but it’s obviously serious and, seemingly, quite stable.
What else happened today…
Yes, this is exactly the kind of outfit I want to see on Chloe Sevigny, carry on! (Go Fug Yourself)
Today is election day in Canada and if you’re reading this and you’re a Canadian citizen and you haven’t already, please vote! Over the last couple of months, the biggest election issue or at least the one getting the most headlines is about our relationship with the United States. Because, of course, Trump keeps talking about making us a part of America. Mike Meyers is Canadian and he’s been pretty visible these days – not to promote a movie or a show but to push back against this threat. This weekend he explains why he was motivated to get involved.

Whether it’s politics or pop culture, height is an obsession. People are constantly googling to find out how tall, or not, celebrities are. And they do it with politicians too. The Toronto Star published a piece the other day about how this has actually been a conversation in the Canadian election. (The Toronto Star)
Another weekend and another example of Meghan Sussex leaning all the way f-cking in on the influencer life, which is exactly what she’s been missing since 2016. That’s why she’s good at it, she knows what she’s doing, she knows how set the lure and draw them in. I was drawn in by the unmistakable red hair on her ginger babies, it’s gorgeous. (Celebitchy)
There are people on the internet who think that 100 men could take on a gorilla and it’s become an online conversation with people clowning the men who actually believe it’s possible. Obviously I think the men are dumb. But my husband would argue that I’m just as dumb because every time we watch a baseball game together – and there’s a baseball game on almost every day right now – I say, and truly believe, because I’m a great batter, that I could make contact. He thinks I’m a f-cking idiot and that it wouldn’t be close. But, like, not even a foul tip? I’m not saying a home run, ffs, but like a dribbly weak grounder?! According to him, I’d barely start moving by the time the ball reaches the catcher’s mitt. And I’m more likely to be injured. Still, I believe, I truly do. (The Mary Sue)
