29 Things You Can Send To Your Friends Who Say They Aren't Voting This Year
Election Day is nearly upon us, and candidates in elections across the country are making last-minute pitches for votes. But many of these pitches are falling on deaf ears, as many people around the nation — particularly in the less politically active youth demographic and among people who are already registered to vote — have already decided they won’t be exercising their civic duty this cycle, according to key voter engagement indicators.

There’s plenty at stake on Tuesday, from control of the U.S. Senate to the dynamics of your state’s legislature or the fate of a number of statewide ballot initiatives. And your vote matters, for a number of key reasons.

Feel free to use any of the previous links to try to convince your friends to vote, but if that doesn’t work, maybe it’s time to shame them with some of these GIFs.

Jamie Dornan Does Not Go Full-Frontal In 'Fifty Shades Of Grey'

Jamie Dornan Does Not Go Full-Frontal In 'Fifty Shades Of Grey'
If you’re someone who took part in questioning whether Ben Affleck’s penis had a cameo in “Gone Girl,” know now that you will not have to repeat this process for a movie where penis cameos may seem like an inevitability: Jamie Dornan has said his genitalia will not make an appearance in “Fifty Shades of Grey.”

“There were contracts in place that said that viewers wouldn’t be seeing my, um…,” Dornan told The Guardian, with a prompt to complete the sentence using “todger,” British slang for “penis.” “Yeah, my todger,” he replied.

When told he’s going the opposite route of the ever-nude Ewan McGregor, Dornan joked that the “Moulin Rouge!” actor must have a “more impressive girth.”

Dornan, who hadn’t read E.L. James’ novel before landing the part of Christian Grey, hinted the “Fifty Shades” sex scenes may not be as explicit as some imagine the “mommy porn” adaptation might feature. A self-described feminist, he assured none of the movie’s sensuality would come across as violence against women or non-consensual sex.

“You want to appeal to as wide an audience as possible without grossing them out,” he said. “You don’t want to make something gratuitous and ugly and graphic.”

Dornan confirmed the movie won’t be too graphic for his wife to disapprove. “I don’t think we will be watching it together too many times at home, though,” he said.

Maybe they’ll be watching “Gone Girl” instead.
