the world is obscene; read all about it @Harpers harpers.org/harpers-index/…
"We have never heard his voice. Accounts of the color of his eyes vary. A dark blue-gray seems the vague consensus." Joy Williams on Kafka in @Harpers harpers.org/archive/2024/0…
"I’ve held a bottle to my baby’s lips at sunrise, thinking, yes, he will be America’s first king, it is written in the stars. I’ve huffed his scalp." perfect Piepenbring piece pondering paternity in the new @Harpers harpers.org/archive/2024/0…
When those charming guys on the street who solicit donations for st jude's or whatever flag me down they always open with "hey mister CEO!" Are other people getting this? i've seen others get "alright SUNGLASSES" and "here comes james bond" but not me. And I don't care for it!!
when I was in quaker elementary school this kid in the year above used to get up and deliver full synopses of SpongeBob episodes
nothing but love for the young guy in a suit on the subway this morning with "JOB INTERVIEW 11AM" written in sharpie on his hand.... go get em tiger
for incisive coverage of the 2024 election look no further than the @Harpers index (trustworthy, clever, written by a cool fun guy)
In the new @Harpers, we've reprinted a harrowing series of Telegram messages sent by Muhammad Sultan, who lives in Gaza, to his sister in Norway harpers.org/archive/2024/0…
i love that some editor was like "why can't we get the clicks NY mag gets...we need to break the internet with a big buzzy list" and this is what they came up with lol theatlantic.com/books/archive/…
going viral on here is easy, actually: you just post a picture of someone and say they look like judith butler. happens every week. i could do this but choose not to!!!
Woke with an urge to watch a Bergman film that I love but remember little of, not even the name, just a scene of Bibi Andersson playing violin, and a gnawing sadness I felt when it ended…I now realize there is no such film, never was, total false memory. but now i NEED to see it
They're filming Batman outside the Harper's office. Asked a guy how it's going. "You know the drill," he said. I nodded. "How about you, what issue did you just close, April? Loved the Lerner piece. America's most interesting magazine...stranger and better than you might expect."
"Being too good was bad. Being bad was also, of course, bad." Great column by Dan Piepenbring in the latest @Harpers, on all manner of deathly things (funeral homes, nuns, psychoanalysis) harpers.org/archive/2024/0…
Rare W in a gloomy world, @willstep_ and this now ASME-nom’d piece are genuinely brilliant: harpers.org/archive/2023/0…

Brief interruption of regular programming to signal boost the drama in the replies to the Arnolfini reframing
Today we re-framed Jan van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait. We replaced the late 19th century gothic fantasy frame with a newly acquired somber gilded 15th century moulding. The figures appear larger and the details crisper without the competition of the incongruous carving.
Horrifying. Fuck every single elected official and public figure who enables and empowers these fascists. Praying that none of my fellow students are seriously hurt.
Pro-Israel counterprotestors started tearing down @UCLA encampment barriers and screamed "Second nakba!" referring to the mass displacement & dispossession of Palestinians during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. Per @latimes @safinazzal on the scene with another video:
This guy is performative whereas Philly rotisserie chicken man embodied the soul of a city. Argument to be made cheeseball man also embodies a city but that’s a bad thing. My other opinions are Andrea Bocelli is a corporate shill and that Rhode Island TikTok judge is too lenient
people kept shouting "LISAN AL GAIB" at this guy at union square eating an entire bucket of cheese balls
Had never even attempted cracking an egg with one hand until just now. I stood at the counter and thought about the mechanics carefully for about a full minute; I rotated the egg and my hand in my mind. Then I executed perfectly. You guys could be like this if you tried.
@elenasb_ What’s bizarre about them is the captions read like AI prompts and the images look like they were created by AI, but that doesn’t seem to be the point. The idea is: What if there were paintings of people renting apartments?
Against my will I am compelled by the new StreetEasy Renaissance painting ad campaign. It makes me feel afraid (not of renting, which I already was, but of images).
My cover crop is +5’ tall in some spots, the soil is finally dry enough to get a tractor in the rows (I hope), so now is the time to mow and disc, which always happens to land on the busiest weeks.
