- rewatching ‘Younger’ and this show’s like a tribute to the iPad mini as an e-reader (the real ones know 🥲)
- wait it would've been sick to see the Nosferatu dress on stage (and in full bright light) 🥺
- If anyone else started sobbing at Cynthia's "Home" and wants to read about the legacy of The Wiz, I spoke with the cast and creatives behind last year's production: www.marieclaire.com/culture/the-...
- My mom just sent me the perfect morning text “I do not like Bruno’s new song with that red person.”
- In March 2020 I had a gig writing up a local newspaper’s man-on-the-street section, which I promptly gave up once lockdown orders came. I was lucky enough to be living with my mom and surviving on no income for a month or two before I found remote work,
- but losing that gig was a part of the national emergency. I think that’s why rn is such a mindfuck because work’s just expected to go on, except for the people who lost absolutely everything. how are people supposed to stay sane in the wake of (during!) their birth city’s devastation?
- the U.S. has needed a mass mental-health break for the past four years now, but literally nothing will make capitalism stop huh
- 🎶It’s the most seasonaldepressionfilled tiiiime of the year🎶

- Spent the last day of the year catching up on awards season. So far Nickel Boys (rewatch), I Saw the TV Glow, Anora, and Queer have altered my brain chemistry
- who are the flag/colorguard girlies from #BeyonceBowl so I can follow them? 🥹
- Let’s try a Bluesky version of an end-of-year recap
- Formal reviews are a less common part of my job, but I’m so proud of my review of this random show that came out of nowhere and shook me to my core www.marieclaire.com/culture/tv-s...
- Every person should have a copy of @margareteby.bsky.social’s book waiting for them when they movie into their first apartment (or when you’re in danger of bankrupting yourself on delivery 🫠) bookshop.org/p/books/you-...
- Past Lives is as good as the hype, straight up the best movie of the year so far. For Marie Claire, I spoke with the lovely Greta Lee about her visceral reaction to the script and her first Korean-speaking role. marieclaire.com/culture/movies/gret…
- Truly wasted five hours of my life on this show
- Starting off the Black Music Month Tiny Desks strong 🥰 youtu.be/J3jUEB7qmt8
- Today I learned there’s an English-language Death Note musical 😳🤨🤔
- on a big slime tutorial and Wait in the Wings kick atm
