No one should be surprised. Tom Hanks and travel do not get along.

They’re also not “rich monarchs”. The only monarch in the UK is their grandmother. William will be monarch at some point in the future, after Charles, but Harry won’t ever be monarch. 

Also, they are living in Canada, not the U.S.

Aniston is living the dream. no whiny husband, goddess circle on fridays, Cabo with comedy writers 3x a year, and brad pitt texts sometimes to wish you well. 5 stars

Lol - while Jennifer spends the rest of her life living on the beach with her doggies, smoking the finest herb California has to offer, and spending her Friends money.

There were several damning parts of this email dump that stood out to me, and the most satisfying one was the missive from his own brother, which I’ve included below (quoted from this Vulture article), emphasis mine.

All of this! He is so perfectly cast.

First Meghan looks stunning in Green. Second, have the Windsors looked in the mirror lately. They are racist, inbred, nystagmus, pasty faced, murderous dullards. Why anyone would look to them for good taste and breeding is beyond me.

I feel like most of these cows are just the ugly stepsisters whose big-ass feet didn’t fit the slipper, and now will forever hate on Meghan, the Cinderella who the Prince fell in love with.

Thought of ‘Masque’ too. And the ‘Decameron’. 

Yo, anybody remember the short story “The Masque of the Red Death”? Your health is only as secure as the least-cared-for member of your society.  

Your mom sounds like a hero. This hits so close to home. My husband and I have two kids (2.5 and 3 months) and this year daycare will cost us $29,000. We don’t live in a high income area, and these are the average prices. This is just what it costs. We are both currently working 2 jobs to pay for it while we both look…

I think it’s really interesting. Even when I had just read the headline, and thought they were talking about the packaging of the cosmetics themselves, its like...it’s a very simple font, and a really minimalist design. It’s distinctive, but in a way that’s very much like defining pornography. The old “I know it when…

I know this isn’t the most positive review, but I came away from it thinking this show actually sounds really interesting. Ex Machina and Annihilation were great, so I’ll definitely give it a shot.

What I don’t understand is this whole “FX on Hulu” exclusivity thing. If it’s only available on Hulu, and all Hulu…

NOT INTERESTING, really, but this is an increasing issue within IP law. Brands wanting to trademark the feeeeeeling you get when you walk into their stores is becoming more and more of a thing. There is something intangible in the way you can walk into certain stores and restaurants and know that they are part of the…

Lol “lifetime of trauma”

Patricia Heaton comes to mind.

This whole section basically lines out why this is total bullshit:

I’ve been wading my toes into “pro-life feminism” for awhile now, and I actually personally know one of the “pro-life feminists” mentioned above.

Aw, this reminds me of the days when io9 would do Concept Art Writing Prompts. I miss those so much.
