Heyoh! Here’s what I had going on this week…
On the blog
Reading
This week, I read Uncanny Valley by Anna Wiener. This book is getting a lot of buzz, and I liked it! It’s mellow, fairly breezy, and has a lot of gorgeous lines. (Read an excerpt.)
Also:
The Darkness Where the Future Should Be, The New York Times.
The Silicon Valley Economy Is Here. And It’s a Nightmare., The New Republic.
Pendeja, You Ain’t Steinbeck: My Bronca with Fake-Ass Social Justice Literature, Tropics of Meta.
Cheer Is Built on a Pyramid of Broken Bodies, The Atlantic.
How the ‘Bachelor’ Franchise Became an Influencer Launchpad, The Ringer.
How Tiffany Moved 114,000 Gems Without Getting Robbed, The New York Times.
The Many Lives of Roberto, a Soup, The New Yorker.
Is Everyone Buying Fake Bags But Me?, ELLE.
Watching
I watched Arrival and A Star Is Born and I also watched this video like 47 times.
NYC
I had drinks at June in Cobble Hill a couple weeks ago and it was so cozy and good! (Get the bread and dip — it’s great.) And I had dinner at Olea this week, and loved it.
Have a great Sunday! ✨
