well well well would u look at that ??? it’s me writing my newsletter on a tuesday evening as I guzzle strawberry seltzer and eat crispy little cookies from a bag I saw at the bodega and was like “that looks like a very european cookie” ooo theyre crispy!!!!! and not too sweet, to boot! “to boot” is an insane phrase, more on that later.
ANYWAYS how are y’all feeling??? famously last week I didn’t do a newsletter because I got “stressed & tired” ever heard of it??? I just felt very overwhelmed and could not think of one single interesting idea. obviously i still feel that way but the show MUST go on. ugh im starting to get too full I ate too many little cookies
the past two weeks have been largely uneventful though I did finally go to madewell and buy bigger jeans <3 though I have previously bashed madewell for making hideous and boring clothes, I DO love their jeans and today I waltzed into the store and said hi I need the stretchiest pair with the highest rise , a rise so high it goes up up above my head! I rly need to start doing this newsletter in the morning when my brain is not asleeep. I work best between 11am and 1pm and not rly at all before or after that, it’s just what makes me , me i guess <3
today was chic because the article I wrote for GQ came out ! I’m rly proud of the piece and grateful for the cool ppl at GQ who let me talk about my pussy and say whatever the fuck I wanted!!! the article is part of their modern lovers issue, which is on stands now or you can read the piece online here:
I ALSO received the most gorgeous beyond gift from my editor Deb to celebrate My Book GOD I FEEL MODERN TONIGHT !! a CUSTOM Susan Alexandra necklace with the cover of my book on it im sobbing crying
lmao shoutout to my fake freckles which were from #set…yes I’m an actress get over it!!! anyways , i had to share the statement piece because I’m simply obsessed, susan even made this gorgeous drawing of me wearing the necklace !!

now before I go, a poem or two….
Snow Poem
I’m scraping smoked tuna from the can
and mixing it with boiled eggs and onion
I’m sorry for the smell but it’s a very popular food
I hope I get the vaccine before I turn 30
Slush Poem
it’s funny how I’m still trying
to have such a nice time
in manhattan I’m holding
a vodka martini outside in february
it’s hard to say
how many boring people will hurt my feelings
before I move upstate to soak beans
once something happens does it matter
whose fault it is?
C&B
oh I love visiting my friends who work at the café
have you tried the focaccia? it’s really something
I didn’t think I’d care about but now I’m
having the weirdest longest time of my life
I’m not hungry but everything tastes so good
goodbye from these angels i walked by last week <3 <3 <3
can u even believe? ugh i need a puppy !!!!!!!
LOVE YA
