I was in a special and precious Cocomelon fugue state opening night in a theater packed to the gills with hysterical women, teen/tween girls, and gays and rewatching it under normal circumstances would undoubtedly break the spell and reactivate my critical mind. But I WILL be there for part 2

this stupid fucking movie had me losing my mind laughing and still so emotionally invested by the end it's kinda ridiculous. very inside baseball. the girls that get it, get it
cast had no reason to go this hard. massive shoutout to be honest to whoever casted the incredibly talented kids, the adults are obviously the comedic center but the kiddos really sold it for me. also that techie what an absolute star

I just saw Otherland (w. Chris Bush, dir. Ann Yee) at the Almeida Theatre and I was a WRECK afterwards. Such a powerful portrayal of the struggles of the two lead women — one navigating coming out as trans to her wife, her family, and the world, and the other with divorcing her, having her own identity crisis, and struggling with having children — and so many bold decisions made in the storytelling and staging (particularly in the second act)!
I really don't want to spoil anything so all I'll say is that the set, despite being largely a plain stage, has a specific piece that will probably be one of the most memorable bits of theatre I've ever seen.
If you're in London do see if you can get tickets before it ends in March, although beware as it is quite heavy at times. I managed to get a very cheap under 25 ticket but I believe these are all sold out. You could try queueing for the Free performance night which I believe opens soon!

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌

I’ve been thinking about how much of social media is centered around curating our self-image. When selfies first became popular, they were dismissed as vain and vapid—a critique often rooted in misogyny—but now, the way we craft our online selves feels more like creating monuments.
We try to signal our individuality, hoping to be seen and understood, but ironically, I think this widens the gap between how others perceive us and who we really are. Instead of fostering connection, it can invite projection and misinterpretation—preconceived notions, prefab labels, and stereotypes. Worse, individuality has become branded and commodified, reducing our identities to products for others to consume.
On most platforms, validation often comes from how well you can curate and present your image—selfies, aesthetic branding, and lifestyle content tend to dominate. High engagement is tied to visibility, not necessarily depth or substance. But I think spaces like PI.FYI show that there’s another way: where connection is built on shared ideas, tastes, and interests rather than surface-level content. It’s refreshing to be part of a community that values thoughts over optics.
By sharing so few images of myself, I’ve found that it gives others room to focus on my ideas and voice. When I do share an image, it feels intentional—something that contributes to the story I want to tell rather than defining it. Sharing less allows me to express who I am beyond appearance.
For women, especially, sharing less can be a radical act in a world where the default is to objectify ourselves. It resists the pressure to center appearance, focusing instead on what truly matters: our thoughts, voices, and authenticity. I’ve posted a handful of pictures of myself in 2,500 posts because I care more about showing who I am than how I look.
In trying to be seen, are we making it harder for others to truly know us? It’s a question worth considering.
