I first went to Fiona Apple's house last June to talk with her about life and music and scorpion hearts; we've been in conversation for over a year now, about her album, her home, why she's done "tickling balls," and the one rule she strives to live by.

"Wherever you are, there *you* are — and you’re still 39. The only thing to do, of course, is to kill the self, submit to ego death, and truly begin anew."

The brilliant @kmiversen recommends @LexiFreiman's The Book of Ayn! 💫

"It’s goofy and counterintuitive, the idea of Jacques Derrida, so profoundly skeptical of the ability of language to capture true meaning, giving way to gushing, unguarded enthusiasm as he chows down on banana bread"
It'd be an honor if my last tweet is this important retweet 🍌

[Mark Asch @MarkAschParody]

here it is, a couple months in the writing and 20 years in the making: 5,500 words on Film Forum’s Jacques Derrida banana bread sign—and digital documentaries, NYC gentrification, the meaning of words and the workings of memory:

intellectually knowing that something is coming does not prepare you for the devastation in the body when it hits

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Overturning Roe v. Wade and denying women the right to control their own bodies is an outrage and in defiance of what the American people want. Democrats must now end the filibuster in the Senate, codify Roe v. Wade, and once again make abortion legal and safe.
