ZOHRANNNNNNNNN!!!!!!! Woke is so back, being handsome is forever, and Red Scare is over. Everyone in New York is freaking out (positive) and it’s finally legal for white boys to say inshallah again. What a beautiful world we live in. 

Good reads: on the David Lynch auction and Laura Palmer’s necklace. Pedro Pascal is the hottest man alive, Romy Mars is the best nepo baby, Alison Williams is in on the joke, Rachel Kushner is having a normal one, Benson Boone is bad, Katy and Orlando are breaking up, and Amy Sedaris is Jaunty Grimoire. Okay. Vulture went to the Hamptons and Pitchfork went to something called Swaggotfest. Men aren’t reading and women aren’t dating. Amidst it all E•MO•TION turned 10 and Brokeback Mountain turned 20???!!!

A book – I'm shook  
Also glorious, also messy – Our New Gods, the debut queer thriller from screenwriter Thomas Vowles that wades into the blood and guts (literally) of modern desire.
