Timeline cleanse
I blame Moo Deng.

– Michael Sun
We can't stop talking about...
It’s an art
Public humiliation  
It’s an art
Exhibit A: Chris Martin fell into a hole on stage.
Nipplegate  
Exhibit B: Janet Jackson, whose wardrobe malfunction turns 20 this year. A new play examines the fallout.
Twist of fate  
Exhibit C: our hapless arts and sports critics, who traded jobs for just one night.
Naked? Great!  
Maybe we could all learn something from the age-old tradition of streaking – which turns 50 this year.
Eat this
Fish are food not friends

Especially these anchovies.

We’re not talking about it. We’re not talking about it! WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT IT!!!! 

Anyway: do we all have to leave Twitter now? Where did all the Hollywood assistants go? Why can’t I watch the new Clint Eastwood movie? Read this disgusting Grub Street diet just to feel something, then enjoy this timeline cleanse: Semiotext(e) turns 50, Bake Off all-stars might happen, and Nora Ephron is still Nora Ephron.

Top of the list
A film – anxiety hour  
Before Lorne Michaels was Lorne Michaels, he was … well, a nervy dork – as this dramatisation of SNL’s 1974 debut makes clear. Our critic hated Saturday Night – but at least it stars Nicholas Braun in two roles? In cinemas.

Another film – champagne shower  
When the annoying titular teen of Audrey falls into a coma, her family practically pops the champagne. So begins this pitch-black Australian comedy that’s “deliciously snarky” – and in cinemas now.

An album – furious power  
From Zero is Linkin Park’s first album since tragedy. They have a new frontwoman and a new drummer – and they’re as punchy as ever.

A book – sweet and sour  
Boy Parts author Eliza Clark is back with She's Always Hungry, a disgusting, delightful short story collection about tapeworks, acne scabs, cannibalism and other body horrors. Out Tuesday in Australia.

… there is a good reason why not to support the Guardian

Not everyone can afford to pay for news right now. That is why we keep our journalism open for everyone to read. If this is you, please continue to read for free.

But if you are able to, then there are three good reasons to support us today.

1

Our quality, investigative journalism is a powerful force for scrutiny at a time when the rich and powerful are getting away with more and more

2

We are independent and have no billionaire owner telling us what to report, so your money directly powers our reporting

3

It doesn’t cost much, and takes less time than it took to read this message

Help power the Guardian’s journalism in this crucial year of news, whether with a small sum or a larger one. If you can, please support us on a monthly basis. It takes less than a minute to set up, and you can rest assured that you're making a big impact every single month in support of open, independent journalism. Thank you.
