These are the Celebrities People Say They Absolutely Do Not Want to Be Stuck Next to on a Plane

Not everyone's a dream seatmate—just ask the internet. We've all dreamed about bumping into a celebrity while flying—maybe sharing a row with Ryan Gosling or trading snacks with Beyoncé. But what about the other end of the spectrum? A recent thread asked: 'Which celebrity would be the worst person to sit next to on a long flight?' And oh boy, people did not hold back. Here are some of the most unfiltered (and hilarious) responses. 1. Tom Hanks? We weren't expecting America's Dad to make the list, but one person warned, 'Never travel with him.' To be fair… they might have a point. Between Cast Away (plane crash and island survival), The Terminal (trapped in an airport), Sully (emergency water landing), and Captain Phillips (hijacked at sea), it's safe to say Tom Hanks has a rough track record when it comes to travel. Honestly, if he boards your plane, you might want to get off. 2. Donald Trump Several people immediately mentioned Trump, with one clarifying, 'I don't know any of them personally, but I'd feel uncomfortable sitting with Trump.' Fair enough. 3. Literally Any Kardashian Apparently, there's no room for glam squads and contour palettes in coach. 'Anyone ever named Kardashian,' one commenter wrote. Harsh, but ok. 4. Will Ferrell Comedic legend or in-flight nightmare? One commenter said simply, 'He'd get on my nerves!' We love Elf as much as the next person, but I guess six hours of Buddy the Elf energy at 35,000 feet might just push someone over the edge. Maybe save the holiday cheer for after landing. 5. Pedro Pascal This one feels like a personal attack. But hey, I guess not everyone wants to sit next to The Mandalorian for six hours? (They can switch seats with me!) 6. The Cast of "Anyone on The View," one person said bluntly, and many others agreed. We'll just leave that there. 7. Tom Cruise His name popped up more than once. Maybe it's the intensity? The stunts? The Scientology? Whatever the reason, several people said they'd rather not be trapped in a middle seat next to Mr. Mission: Impossible. That said, if the plane suddenly needed an emergency landing and someone to sprint across the wing midair… he might actually be the best person to have nearby. 8. Kid Rock One commenter guessed that Kid Rock might not exactly bring 'fresh linen energy' to the cabin. To be fair, not everyone's ready for full rockstar vibes on a 6 a.m. flight. 9. The Rock Not because of logistics. 'He's so big he wouldn't fit in an economy seat,' was one of the most popular answers. Respectfully, that's... kind of valid. 10. The Charmin Bears Yes, the cartoon toilet paper mascots. 'Can't stand them,' one commenter confessed. But hey, at least they would have good toilet paper? Not all celebrity encounters are nightmare fuel; some stars are beloved both on-screen and in the aisle seat. If you're curious who made the opposite list, check out these 12 celebrities everyone seems to adore. Or, for more brutally honest internet opinions, see which actors make people want to walk out of the theater entirely. Spoiler: no one is safe. Solve the daily Crossword

A Novel That Offers the Pleasure of Seeing a Perfect Family Crumble

DOMINION, by Addie E. Citchens Addie E. Citchens's debut novel, set in the Mississippi Delta town of Dominion, offers readers the delectable pleasure of watching an outwardly perfect family crumble under its own arrogance and rot. The Winfreys live in a wealthy part of town 'with all the rest of the fancy Black folk,' presiding over the venerable Seven Seals Missionary Baptist Church and a small-business empire that includes a barbershop, radio station and restaurant. Their story is told in first-person sections that alternate between Priscilla, the first lady of Seven Seals, and Diamond, an unrooted girl who devotes herself to Manny, the brightest star in the constellation of Winfrey sons. In its exploration of female competition and resourcefulness, 'Dominion' may remind readers of Zora Neale Hurston's work. At her best, Citchens can effortlessly convey history, personality and desire, as when Diamond explains Manny's appeal: When he passed … the girls sighed. When he picked you, you didn't giggle about him with your girlfriends, or they would get too jealous and try to slander your name. Me and my siblings were smelly poor when we were younger, and on top of that, my mama went and left … which was shameful in itself. Kids like me usually went through school either being very violent or very quiet. I wasn't a fighter, so I had long ago chosen the latter. … I was content to watch him, knowing I would never get the chance to love him. Given her harrowing childhood, revealed in gut-wrenching flashbacks (roach-infested motels, parental disappearance, a Coke machine clunking down its cans at all hours of the night), Diamond is clearly the character to root for. The other major characters aren't as absorbing. We're meant to dislike the patriarch, the Rev. Sabre Winfrey, whom Priscilla pegs as an unfaithful, violent tyrant. But I harbored hopes of seeing this apparently industrious, charismatic man in action, of encountering the type of character seen in the work of, say, Flannery O'Connor: a figure you dislike but whose vibrancy and particularity enliven the narrative.

What Muriel Spark Knew About Childhood

This is an edition of the Books Briefing, our editors' weekly guide to the best in books. Sign up for it here. The most recent issue of The Atlantic taught me that the Scottish author Muriel Spark had, according to Judith Shulevitz, 'a steely command of omniscience,' and frequently played with 'selective disclosure, irony, and other narrative devices.' I knew that Spark was funny, and that her work was highly recommended by people whose taste I respect. But I quickly realized I had very few other facts at my disposal. Most important, I'd never read her writing. So before I'd even finished Shulevitz's review of a new biography of the novelist, I downloaded The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie —Spark's best-known work—from my local library. First, here are four new stories from The Atlantic 's Books section: How not to fix American democracy 'Surface Support,' a poem by Michael D. Snediker Literature's enduring obsession with strange sisters Why so many MIT students are writing poetry The novella's title character works at an Edinburgh school for girls in the 1930s; she's an outré teacher who has marked a special group of pupils as 'hers.' She cares very little for teaching the approved curriculum. Instead, she takes her students to the theater; she walks them through Edinburgh's Old Town; she regales them with tales of her former loves; she praises the fascist regimes of Mussolini and Hitler. Her girls, she notes, will benefit far more from the artistic education provided by Brodie 'in her prime'—unmarried and pushing 40, she is entirely aware of her sexual and intellectual power, which are both at their peak. But the story, while named for Brodie, is not actually about her; it is primarily told through the recollections of the girls, and one in particular: Sandy, who in her adulthood has become a nun. The book's main question is not what will become of Brodie—we know from the early pages that she will be fired from the school, 'betrayed' by one of her chosen girls. Instead, it investigates the heady, hormonal days of adolescence, and the moral education of the students. That last theme is where Spark's 'central concern,' as Shulevitz puts it, becomes clear. The author was a Catholic convert, and her writing is full of characters searching for, asking about, and turning to God. For the girls, whom Brodie begins shaping when they're barely tweens, their teacher is something like a deity: at times hard to understand, often capricious, but ultimately fascinating, beautiful, and never wrong. As they grow up, most of the kids simply become who they were always going to be, shaking off Brodie's rules and stipulations and following their own whims. But Sandy feels her teacher's authority for the rest of her life. Her entanglement with Brodie, which continues into her late teens, leads her down a winding path that culminates in her own conversion to Catholicism. Her act of submission to the Church, which requires her to shed her individuality, is actually her final moment of separation from her former mentor: She has allowed God to dethrone her teacher. But even though Sandy's conversion mirrors Spark's own, I was surprised and pleased to see that the author doesn't make Sandy a perfect nun, devoted solely to the Church, free of Brodie's shadow. Instead, Spark is realistic about the effect a particularly magnetic figure can have on a young, impressionable person. Many years later, when Sandy is asked who or what most influenced her, it's Brodie's name on her lips. Similarly, Spark's is on mine. I've now got Memento Mori and Loitering With Intent, two of her other novels, waiting for me on my e-reader. The Judgments of Muriel Spark By Judith Shulevitz The novelist liked playing God—a very capricious one. What to Read The Backyard Bird Chronicles, by Amy Tan Tan coped with the political tumult of 2016 by returning to two of her childhood refuges: nature and art. Drawing was an early hobby of hers, but she'd felt discouraged from taking it seriously. At 65, she took 'nature journaling' lessons to learn how to depict and interpret the world around her—most notably the inter-avian dramas of the birds behind her Bay Area home. The Backyard Bird Chronicles is a disarming account of one year of Tan's domestic bird-watching, a book 'filled with sketches and handwritten notes of naive observations,' she writes. That naivete is endearing: The accomplished novelist becomes a novice, trying to improve through eager dedication. Over the course of this engaging book, her illustrations grow more sophisticated, more assured—leaving readers with a portrait of the hobbyist as an emerging artist. — Sophia Stewart Out Next Week 📚 Baldwin: A Love Story, by Nicholas Boggs 📚 Where Are You Really From, by Elaine Hsieh Chou 📚 Dominion, by Addie E. Citchens Your Weekend Read The Logic of the '9 to 5' Is Creeping Into the Rest of the Day By Julie Beck Over the past couple of years, the vloggers of social media have taken to documenting their routines from 5 to 9 p.m. Some creators also make a morning version, the '5 to 9 before the 9 to 5,' starting at 5 a.m. These routines are highly edited, almost hypnotic, with quick cuts, each mini-scene overlaid with a time stamp. Hours pass in just a couple of minutes, and the compressed time highlights a sense of efficiency. The videos have big to-do-list energy; the satisfaction they offer is that of vicariously checking boxes.
