Darlings, I hope you had a great weekend, especially if you were working on the nearly-hundred tech company-signed amicus brief in protest of Trump’s immigration executive order. Kudos to the staff who managed to wrangle that many companies in stating that not only is the EO bad for business, but that it is unlawful. Also, if you want to lose your mind this morning, read the comments on that TC piece. Hoo boy.

A few things:

• Lady Gaga KILLED IT at the mid-point of the sportsball show. She jumped into the stadium surrounded by 300 dancing drones, and then proceeded to belt our her "non-political” hits.

• And finally, have you watched Melissa McCarthy as Sean Spicer on SNL? You really, really should. Like, really. Remember: NO ONE WAS SAD. Those are the facts forever.

Toodles, loves :)
