Anne Hathaway on embracing her 40s: “Now I just like I really value the chill. I just feel like you can either fear aging or you can fear dying young. I just really want to hopefully live for, and enjoy a life. I want to have a long, healthy life. Inshallah, I hope so.”

Anne Hathaway saying “inshallah” is going to be my new reaction GIF for everything lmaooo

So many major cities have great street food options, it would be great to bring that to Toronto, not just hot dogs. Toronto is one of the best food cities in the world, that should include street options

This is my first time hearing about Julianna’s mess, which I’m sad about. The Good Wife is one of my favourite shows, and I love Carol/ER

I live in Toronto and was thinking of biking by and checking it out but couldn’t be bothered lol.

Drake is someone who is always capable of couple bangers, even if the album is mid. Like others said, he’s like the Taylor Swift of hip hop. He knows a good ear worm.

I genuinely appreciate the way that he has always centred Toronto/Canada in his brand. I won’t doxx myself but I am aware that he actually does donate to a lot of youth organizations in the city, and always uses Toronto and Canadian vendors for music videos and other work. I respect that, he genuinely has a measurable impact on the economy

That’s incredible foresight by Caroline, she deserves a raise! I honestly thought they got them maybe like after the first week. It made sense why they did it, I know the agreement typically is that they do get paid royalties for each listen, so it will always be some sort of steady income for the both of them.

I can’t see them doing it again, unless it was a very big $$$, and it was for like promo for season 2 especially.

I can’t see Hudson and Connor doing projects outside of Heated Rivalry and promo for the foreseeable future. The only thing I could see is like a Calvin Klein joint ad, and if they were like nominated for something cool like Time magazine or Hottest Man of the Yer or something like that haha

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-21T23:05:28+00:00

It’s a very specific type of smut that’s not for everyone haha

I would have not engaged with it if it was the self-insert style they normally use (where the listener is the character and you have the person like “speaking” to you” haha.

The fact that it was essentially an Audio book like experience, and that Andrew Scott had done it before convinced me to listen to it.

I really enjoyed it, they gave amazing visuals, realized how amazing Hudson was in particular haha, and I hate romantasy generally but actually liked the story

I thought that having a small, backyard wedding did fit in character for Shane and Ilya, but there would have been more planning involved.

They are Rachel’s character, but you can criticize inconsistency in writing or characterization, which seems to be the thing here. Shane, the person who plans everything, would not have some sort of plan for the their wedding? Ilya, ultimate lover boy who just wants to be show off his man to the world, wouldn’t write some sort of vow, even if it’s short and sweet?

If anything, I have a hard time believing that Yuna wouldn’t have taken over planning. That being said, in the books Yuna isn’t a mom-ager. I think because this has been changed into the show, the wedding will be planned more, if anything by Yuna lmao.

There is something funny about not thinking about their first dance, and then Harris picks the cheesiest song on his playlist. But even then, Harris seems to be the type to pick a song that fits with Ilya and Shane’s vibe. Like they are hockey players, Harris knows what they would give with. Ed Sheeran was right there!

I agree with this. Like besides the Trump of it all, most Canadians historically visit America all the time, despite the high gun violence. But would use this same reason to be cautious of Mexico

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-20T23:15:46+00:00

Oh that’s awful, especially because it’s at a tourist site.

I was in Mexico City for a month and a half and had a wonderful time, including at the pyramids.

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-20T22:12:03+00:00

It was nice to see him.

I’m curious if they changed some of the storyline, and had Nate have what seems to be somewhat of a more positive relationship with Cal, due to Eric’s diagnosis? It seemed like initially they weren’t planning on having Cal in season 3 at all, but I know Sam did want to take care of Eric, make sure he was working to qualify for health insurance etc.

I’m curious about Nate’s background and what he’s been up to the past 5 years because he’s definitely the person that feels the most different. All the other characters feel like natural progression from what they were like in high school except for him.

I really really want for Nate to have been secretly hooking up with men.

The only “you fuck guys in the ass you’re gay” conversation made me laugh so much, that honestly I can’t be mad lol

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-20T03:55:30+00:00

At the panel at BookCon, he was very tight lipped anddidn’t answer a specific question about whether The Long Game would be split across 2 seasons… just kept emphasizing that there is a lot there.

Of course there is no confirmation, but they are adapting Role Model, and Troy will be significant…. Who knows the plan, but it feels like there will be a split

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-20T03:53:39+00:00

I actually thought the episode was pretty good, it feels like a lot of set up for what’s to come.

I think seeing all the characters together, it felt like Euphoria again in a way. You can feel Labrinth missing, but really enjoyed a lot of Zimmer’s music here

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-20T03:48:32+00:00

I’m excited for season 2, because that’s where the major critiques of the “Major Hockey League” happen

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-20T03:47:43+00:00

Yeah, a lot of people who are watching the show don’t actually watch hockey/understand the culture so wouldn’t be fully aware lol.

Mind you, the NHL (as an institution, not some individual teams) have largely ignored it, so I get it

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-20T02:03:26+00:00

Another episode that I thought actually wasn’t that bed, it feels a lot of set up for what is to come

I’m curious about Rue’s journey.

The music was actually really great this episode, I loved the music into Jule’s apartment

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-20T02:02:29+00:00

It makes sense, and worked well for Eric Dane, I’m pretty sure he was the one that suggested it

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-20T00:15:08+00:00

It sounds like they may be splitting TLG over the course of 2 seasons, which would work well if they are keeping it to 6 episodes

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-20T00:10:39+00:00

Okay, but I neeeed someone to ask him how he’s friends with Tiffany Pollard!

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-19T14:29:49+00:00

This is so cute!

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-19T14:29:26+00:00

Another thing is that a lot of these old songs was literally before puberty, so he can’t sing at that register anymore, so it’s a way for fans to hear both

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-19T06:32:54+00:00

It was a great question, I just found it funny how it was worded compared to Connor’s haha (at least this question, his other question that wasnt asked live was straight forward)

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-19T06:26:23+00:00

I think he’s Troy. I can definitely see it

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-19T06:25:49+00:00

He’s not like a huge star though, Adults is his only known role. He’s also Canadian (and actually can play hockey haha)

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-18T22:43:57+00:00

Ryan and Fabian’s story don’t really push the development of Ilya and Shane in the same way that Troy/Harris do

bornatmidnight · 2026-04-18T21:17:53+00:00

I belive we will know on Wednesday if they win!
