I don’t know what they did to Google but it’s now a confusing mess to use.

Good morning from where I stand.

People have reached out to ask whether the gathering I've planned in Morocco this June is still a go. We're moving forward as planned. In many ways, this feels like exactly the right time to gather. I'm keeping a close watch and will proceed with care. afterthebluedoor.com

The official announcement for the gathering in Essaouira, Morocco I’ve planned for June 23-30, 2026. All of the pertinent information is there. (The site is better seen on a computer, though on phone it’s lovely too.) afterthebluedoor.com

The full invite will land here shortly. Keep your eyes open.

Bad Bunny: 1) I love that there were no subtitles. 2) MAJOR MOMENT: “God Bless America!” Then shouting out countries in the Americas. Many seem to forget that the United States is not the totality of America, not as a land mass and not as a political entity.

I received this text yesterday. Where do you think she’s talking about?

Check it out.

Twitter used to be such an interesting space. It’s sad what has happened to it.

I continue my ritual of posting this gorgeous image by Malick Sidibé on December 24th every year. Nuit de Noël (Christmas Eve), 1963. Bamako, Mali.

Things you can't make up: The American artist who's representing the U.S. in the upcoming Venice Bienniale is a white man from Utah living in Mexico. Given all that's going on in the U.s. around immigration form Latin America, this seems like satire.

And oh yeah, I forgot to mention that while people are beginning to go hungry it was announced today that drugs to curb hunger (wegovy/ozempic)will have a big price drop soon. Go ahead you can laugh. It's dystopic as f*ck.

Planting a tree. Feeling good. Hello.

I listened to my grandmother. Now this is public discourse.

Hahaha. Love this. Smart kid with a patient mother.

Was that Dre’s voice?

That intro to Mariah was the longest ever. Now her being onstage is anti-climactic. Lol
