@jessehawken @_HeatherBuckley tfw you find out your beau's buddy is in the last scene. 🤯

@_HeatherBuckley I've been known to sport a pair of goggles as house-attire; however, perhaps not scary enough for the feel you may be going for.

As usual, @DavidNaimon brings us, who are bombarded w/ so much nonsense nearly everywhere else, a heartening, funny, wise conversation from @rabihalameddine, a literary treasure at the height of his skill. Thank you, both. 📚🙏🏆 @groveatlantic

[(((David Naimon))) @DavidNaimon]

It's been a longstanding dream of mine to talk with @rabihalameddine (& the reality of it was even better). We talk about his incredible The Wrong End of the Telescope & how to tell a story that has undone you yet you still feel compelled to tell

Six macarons, two coffees, & one tea later at Maeve’s Place in Phoenicia, NY… & we were the fastest talkers & loudest laughers in upstate New York! 🤣☕️☕️☕️ #maevesplace #phoeniciany #upstateny #upstate #newyork #coffee #macarons #tea #latte #catskills #catskillsny

Apart from the noontime rave music, Woodstock Brewing Company in Phoenicia, NY was terrific! The Chimichanga was delish. Avoid the pineapple ale. Go for the Baby Dragon pale! #woodstockbrewery #phoeniciany #upstateny #upstate #newyork #beer #ale #paleale #chimichanga #catskillsny

In 1775, #PhyllisWheatley sealed Columbia into US iconic history, writing a poem enthroning “Columbia,” as a goddess who represented the new nation, calling on George #Washington to proceed in revolutionary war against #Britain with Columbia as his divine guide.

This #postapo malcontent is wearing a red #Phrygian cap. Here's a brief twitter-thread #history of this iconic hat.

[IrisBlakeWriter @IrisBlakeWriter]

#Columbia, the American counterpart to Marianne, is often depicted, too, wearing a Phrygian cap. Columbia, before Lady Liberty, was a concept created in 1697 when Chief Justice Samuel Sewall wrote a poem suggesting “Columbina,” after Columbus, as a name for the colonies.
