You don’t need to explain yourself for other people. It’s not necessary to provide a bunch of details. Say what you need. it’s not necessary to sit through someone’s rant about something negative or time consuming, you can end the conversation if you see fit. The idea of polite can be exaggerated in our heads and it takes up our valuable time and goes against our gut. Saying what you mean is polite. This is my goal for this year as a person who is always “protecting” people from my thoughts or opinions out of politeness (when they don’t even need it). It’s been hurting my flow of life and comfort of being around people.

The best $25 I spend every month. Literally pays for itself if you see one movie plus if I see a bad movie I don’t feel like I wasted money

I recently watched The Monkey for free at Chicago's Music Box Theatre — and even stuck around for Perkin's Q&A session. I have to say, it was the best movie-going experience I've ever had. An organist played the score with diabolical cymbals in the background — come on! And the movie was hilarious and equal parts gory!

Staying at the Roxy in NY (formerly the Tribeca Grand) is akin to being on an elegant cruise in Manhattan. It’s my home away from home in the city. Everything is there: from live jazz in the massive atrium lobby with the glass elevator zipping up and down and the divine food and drinks (I recommend the lobster roll and a mescal cocktail) in recessed leather booths shaped like teacups, to the gorgeous red velvet theater below - which offers the best films on screen in Manhattan - curated by the brilliant Illyse Singer. After attending a killer film and fascinating Q&A, retreat to the Django, the speakeasy next door, which stays open til 4AM and is often where the hottest underground music acts play… What else could you ask for?

It seems like everyone is trying to re-wire how they connect to life on this app and I’m really thankful it exists and for all of your thoughts

Feels like gravity is slightly stronger for a second and you might get sucked down the drain to another world.

A cake is a letter, a cake is a reminder, a cake is an expression, a cake is a memo, a cake is a memory, and so much more. here pictured is my dogs breed results after doing the gene test. I brought it to my boyfriends work and everyone laughed and got a sweet treat. Bonus is to do it yourself but I don’t have time for that!!
