Hellloooo my summer chickadees, What a week it has been. Here in NYC, we endured the heat wave, legionnaires in the water supply (bless you, UES), The Odyssey premiere (bless you, traffic of the UWS), Canadian wildfire smoke (is the fire punishment for the Canadians killing all those Emus? Kidding— but also not), and lifeContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 07.18.26”

“More to feel. More to uncover. More to re-lease. More to embody and become.” Mimi Ikonn
The Fence
“There exists in such a case a certain institution or law; let us say…a fence or gate erected across a road.
