Why have all your social media feeds been overcome with jokes about Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vanceand his alleged fondness for love seats? Let Chris Murphyexplain via Stephen Colbert, who thoroughly broke down the story behind the memes on the most recent episode of The Late Show. “The rumor, Colbert explained, was spread by various social media accounts alleging that Vance described having sex with a couch in his book, Hillbilly Elegy,” writes Murphy. “The internet has run wild with the made-up claim, with more and more people making memes and jokes about Vance’s supposed predilection for plush furniture.”
Elsewhere in HWD, David Canfield presents a first look at Peacock’s reimagining of The Day of the Jackal; House of the Dragon director Loni Peristere breaks down the show’s most recent episode; Robert Downey Jr. reenters the Marvel Cinematic Universe; and Kamala Harris is merely exchanging long protein strings—if you can think of a simpler way, she’d like to hear it.
