Army are so generous and creative. I appreciate every freebie I get. No one ever apologize for your freebies. It’s about sharing the love and community around BTS. Grateful for everyone who put in the time and effort.

A week in Los Angeles for LArirang. Had fun but I’m about to get home and find out how my cats turned off the security camera and the internet in my apartment for the week.

Wasn’t planning to do a whole day of BTS The City Arirang activities but I did. And fun to hand out freebies to Army that I saw along the way.

From my kitchen window, spotted a rogue cat in my bedroom where she is forbidden to go. Definitely her “busted” face.

New York actors put up with so much. I don’t know how they do it. Today a group of very good actors had to put up with a loud audience member burp during a key touching scene. Acting your heart out for some belchy guy in Row 3. If I was an actor I would walk into the sea.

I have a lot of thoughts about seeing work in languages you do not speak. I am not against this technology per se. And my friend Hansol would probably appreciate not having to answer my questions at intermission about the plot points I have missed in Korean. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/17/a...

Dog Day Afternoon on Broadway is not insufferable but we all know how great a story it can be. So a bummer for it to be just kind of meh. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

Re: BTS presale: I feel like there is so much misinfo floating around. Every "theory" on how people got lower queue numbers is not remotely accurate to my experience. I got some ridic low queue numbers. It was truly random. My friend standing next to me didn't. Did same exact thing.

Could not get over the misogyny of this play. The whole second act I was so grossed out by what was coming. Like almost felt abusive to put us in this room. exeuntnyc.com/reviews/revi...

I feel like I can BREATHE AGAIN 😭

A screenshot of the livestream of Hobi’s encore concert, cropped in on Min Yoongi, who has his hands above his head to form a heart shape. He’s wearing a black beanie and a white medical face mask but you can tell by the shape and sparkle of his eyes that he’s smiling.

I profiled Patti LuPone, who sounded off on the state of Broadway ("I don't want to be onstage anymore. PERIOD."), her love of the New York Rangers ("It was all sex appeal"), the couple she deems "two of the stupidest human beings on the face of the earth," and Audra McDonald ("not a friend").

newyorker.com

Patti LuPone Is Done with Broadway—and Almost Everything Else

The seventy-six-year-old theatre diva, famed and feared for her salty bravado, dishes on Hal Prince, her non-friendship with Audra McDonald, and sexy but dumb New York Rangers.

Also at the vet’s, they were inducing turtle labor on a turtle who had 9 eggs in her. I saw her X-ray. It looked uncomfortable.

The vet gave me medication to help one of my cats calm down before vet visits. Now I just also need a prescription for myself. Trying to get these two to the vet is mentally and physically exhausting. And I have to do it all over again in 2 weeks for their dental work. 😭😭😭

Heesu in Class 2 is an adorable little series (so far) and I’m instantly smitten. It has a Heartstopper/Love, Simon kind of vibe (which feels very novel for a Korean BL) and feels like a BL with a budget of more than $5. #kdramas

My friend starts telling me a story about a woman who weaseled her way into a front row seat at a show he was at and it turned out she didn’t have a ticket. And she badgered him into answering all her questions. And I’m like “was it Nicki Cochrane?” I sent him a picture. It was.

If any Army were thinking about donating to the Korean wildfire recovery, my Korean language school is a US charity and will be processing donations for wildfire relief. So you can donate through them and get the tax deduction. secure.givelively.org/donate/korea...
