We all have our all time favorite books, and we all have our all time favorite character to hate, but what if you could do something about the evil villain who just won't go away?


Now we know we can't actually climb inside a book and change the direction of a story, but it sure is fun to pretend. There is nothing more frustrating then snuggling down to spend time with our fictional friends just to have some evil character (Dolores Umbridge, anyone?) come along and reek havoc on our beloved heroes.

Comedian and writer Sara Benincasa gave us all the opportunity to fantasize about killing off those awful characters for good when she tweeted:

"Okay you can murder ONE (1) totally fictional literary character (I don't mean the author or actor who plays them you creep) and they die swiftly but they stay dead. Choose."


We may never be able to actually do any fictional killing but it sure feels good to vent.

Scott Bessent Blasted Over His Bonkers Suggestion For How To Bring Your Own Inflation Rate Down

Continuing to follow the example of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent appeared on Meet the Press Sunday to blame Democratic President Joe Biden for the financial downturn caused by Trump's tariff fiasco, then lied repeatedly about the state of the economy.

Meet the Press host Kristen Welker played a clip of MAGA Republican Vice President JD Vance telling a conservative audience at a Breitbart News event that Americans owe the Trump administration "a little bit of patience"—apparently while they figure out what tariffs are and how they work since they're rolling back more of them to lower consumer prices despite claiming Trump's tariffs don't affect consumer prices.

Lindsay Lohan Is Now Sporting A New Accent—And Fans Aren't Sure What To Make Of It

In a twist freakier than a sequel to Freaky Friday, Lindsay Lohan has debuted yet another new accent—this time at the Fashion Trust Arabia Awards in Doha, Qatar.

Draped in a maroon, jewel-trimmed gown by The New Arrivals Ilkyaz Ozel and accompanied by her husband, Bader Shammas, and their 2-year-old son, Luai, the actress looked serene, elegant, and completely unbothered by the collective whiplash she was about to inflict on the internet.
