Popped over to Brooklyn to see Ibsen’s John Gabriel Borkman at BAM (but mostly to swoon over the collective talent of Fiona Shaw, Lindsay Duncan and my sometimes pretend fantasy boyfriend Alan Rickman).
Everything you’ve always wanted to know about a Steampunk Caste System, but were afraid to ask!
Educational!
But really, a steampunk murder-mystery opera and they’re on Tumblr…can’t wait to see it.
Looking forward to checking out Miranda, the steampunk murder mystery opera that'samouthful tonight at HERE Arts Center. (Buy tickets to the show.)
Anna Nicole! So many feels. (at BAM Howard Gilman Opera House)
At age 65, she is four decades into the never-ending romantic soap opera that is Fleetwood Mac.
I know we’re all still talking about the Kanye article, but this Vulture piece on the amazing Stevie Nicks is beyond.
Running super late because I was singing all of Act 1 of Phantom of the Opera in the shower. Uh, hey 1986, how’s it going?

Music for your Monday: As LCD Soundsystem heads into retirement — its last show takes place Saturday night at New York’s Madison Square Garden — The Current pays homage to a band that helped define the sound of new music. With artists name-checked directly in “Losing My Edge,” they created a music stream that pays tribute to where LCD Soundsystem came from and where the band was first inspired.
not ready to say goodbye.
Today in Updates:
Very happy to announce that I work here now (trust me, this was a tough one to keep to myself for the past few weeks). I’m beyond thrilled to join the Tumblr team as their resident Communications girl. Drop me a line and say hello!
It’s amazing how much six years feels like just yesterday and a lifetime ago, simultaneously.
In 2011, we were a whopping 25 people (which, coincidentally is the median age of both David and I at that time); an entire company that could fit (sort of) comfortably into one small conference room, count ¾ of its female employees on six feet, and offsite together in one house.
Now, we’re hundreds of people across multiple offices, about to go through an acquisition (again!) and I’m certainly no longer 26. So, while I wouldn’t change the last six years for anything, I know in my heart that it’s time for me to move on to the next adventure.
It’s impossible to sum up six plus years in one sappy tumblr post, so here are some of the greatest hits:
Thank you, Tumblr, for an incredible six years. It’s been a dream.
(One last time) Fuck Yeah!

I don’t think I have anything to add that would be 1/1,000,000th as impactful as the stories women have been sharing this week. But please count me as one man standing with you in this fight.
Today I made a $1 million donation to Planned Parenthood. I urge more men to speak up and contribute. Women don’t get pregnant alone, and we owe them much more than our silent support in the political fight ahead.
If you can, please donate here. Either way, you can take action across the country, online or in person.
