More from Hung Up this week: A Love Island USA chat in the Substack app … A father present in the movie theater but not the home … What’s the best story you tell about yourself? You’re never going to believe this, but I was at a weddinglast week. (I know, I know: Likely place for me to be.) I’m still finishing up something about Materialists, so I pulled up something fun and weird from the archives: Do you remember Anthony Hopkins’s thotty headshot? That make it do what it do squint?

More from Hung Up this week: A little London event innit … a chat about the US Traitors season 4 cast in the Substack app … and What’s the story you tell about yourself? At church one Sunday in my youth, the pastor shared an anecdote that I think about all the time. You know what day the telephone company says the phone lines are the busiest, all over the country? he asked the congregation of about 500-plus black folks.

Really did not expect my London event on Thursday to hit capacity in 5 minutes โ€ฆ! I will try to open up some more spots!A shake-the-table moment of my early twenties was reading Carrie Fisherโ€™s Star Wars diary. Fisher was young, hard-headed, and having a clandestine affair with an irresistibly aloof Harrison Ford. Someone told her that who you choose to be in a relationship with is what you think of yourself.

Londoners! Can I pull you for a chat? I’m in town this week and want to hang out with you. Thursday night I’m hosting a little get-together in Dalston at 7pm. The vibe: Informal! Free drinks! Good gossip! Bring your best friend, or your work friend, or someone willing to get into a passionate debate about whether The Bear is a comedy or if Hacks is good. Hope to see you Thursday night! I’ll be there at 7pm and I’ll close my tab around 930.

More from Hung Up this week: Patti LuPone apologizes to everyone but Glenn Close and a Mountainhead chat in the Substack app. If a man has not embarrassed you, devoted Hung Up readers will recall, he just hasn’t embarrassed you yet. Generally, that applies to “wives,” “daughters,” “girlfriends,” and “mothers.” This week a novel development: men are embarrassing one another. Several male friendships have fallen out in spectacular fashion this week.
