Relatedly, if you're in academia and read an essay or article or book by a scholar that really impresses you, consider sending them an email to let them know. I think this is especially important to do for younger scholars, who may not have many other ways of getting positive feedback on their work
Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

Really love this book of photos that Benjamin Katz took of Gerhard Richter at work in the 1980s and early ‘90s.
— Richter rips cigarettes and laughs quite often
— His cat and then-wife Isa Genzken appear frequently
— The squeegee only makes one (I think?) appearance
— The candles look awful in b&w

Six years have passed since Dean & DeLuca closed in New York, and young people are growing up without knowing its pleasures, its commitment to quality. They are being taken in by upstarts like "Meadow Lane" and "Happier Grocery." D&D must return. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/24/d...

If someone called me up and asked me to represent the United States of America at the Venice Biennale, you better believe I’m saying yes.

Tonight in 1990 — Laura Palmer’s killer was revealed on TWIN PEAKS.
ABC insisted, and David Lynch + Mark Frost delivered a chilling episode.
But Lynch hated closure, and he got his payback with a finale cliffhanger it took 25 years to resolve. And even then, he still left us wondering. #TwinPeaks

I’ve come to believe that we need to gather considerable forces and a campaign to demand the removal of face masks by ICE, Border Patrol, FBI and police.
It is a practice in conflict with the principles of transparency & accountability that are central to the concept of democracy.

Video on social media shows an immigration agent pulling a gun in Little Village and holding it to the side — which is not an appropriate or safe way to hold a gun. (Among other issues.)
