I first read Giovanni's Room when I was 14. How did a book built (I now think) on a homophobic logic give me access to dignity? For Harper's, I wrote about why we should complicate our sense of what it means for art to be "affirming." harpers.org/archive/2025...

Seth Rogen being in Venice, taking pictures (within the press room, for one), can only mean great things for season 2 of The Studio. #Venezia82 #TheStudio

Variety getting rid of reviews would be even more bizarre

But its Vanity Fair, not Variety, I think. Still annoying.
