A really wonderful NYC December night.

A white dinner plate with a whimsical illustration of a golden reindeer riding a blue star like a comet, with motion lines trailing behind it. The word “Comet” is written beneath the illustration in a hand-drawn style. The plate is set on a festive holiday tablecloth, with silverware, a glass, and a small place card reading “Frankie” visible at the top.

Getting comfortable for a bit.

A close-up photo of a Playbill from The Public Theater for a production titled Initiative. The cover features a bold, retro-inspired collage: a woman swinging on chains in a circular frame, bright pop-art colors—yellow, pink, green, blue—and graphic elements like a d20 die. Behind the Playbill, the dimly lit theater stage is visible with a set piece resembling bunk beds glowing in blue light, and rows of empty seats around the space.

My new thing: tanking every “How was your experience?” survey with zeros and claiming I encountered maga energy during it. “Your coffee order?” Baaaad vibes. “That package delivery?” Gross no. “How was sledding?” Hill had weird opinions. Please escalate to management. I won’t be returning.

It's a terrible day, and I can feel the weight in my chest—you do too. An ache of knowing we’re not doing enough, but also wondering how we’re supposed to do more. So, naturally, I’m watching old Chelsea Handler episodes on Netflix. 🧵
