ATTENTION BLUESKY! Annie says they are really hoping to boost the number of artists (crew, performers, creative teams, anyone) outside New York who are filling this out to get a broader sampling. If you are in the arts please take a second and fill this out!

EDITOR: You get those photos of Leonard for the album cover? PHOTOGRAPHER: Sure did, boss—real mob hitman, just like you asked
Leonard Bernstein in Budapest album cover. Leonard is in a white tracksuit jacket with a monogrammed name I can’t quite read but I think days “Big B”, brown gloves, baby blue pants. He’s looking at you through the camera like your life means nothing to him

what MFAs never teach you is that if you add googly eyes to a poem and the poem gets better as a result it probably is a poem that needs more edits

You’d better believe it’d be a traditionally animated Duck & Moose show with kickin’ tunes and musical guests like Chris Thile, Victor Wooten, Tarriona Tank Bell, Nate Smith, and James Baxter could do whatever he felt like.

Preview image of a red bumper sticker . The bumper sticker reads

KEEP HONKING!
I HAVE FOUND MYSELF
BEHIND THE WHEEL OF
A LARGE AUTOMOBILE

There are two figures facing away from each other, wearing suits, in an exaggerated "dance" pose. Small versions of the same figures form a border around the sticker. Speech bubbles from three of them say "Well... how did I get here?," "How do I work this?," "Where is that large automobile?"

I found a stylish hat this weekend.
A photo of a hat, but the hat is the disembodied head of what I can only assume is an off model version of Animal from The Muppets. It is the stuff of nightmares. It is perfect.
