Any body of water. Get me in. Lake, ocean, pool, pond, river, stream. Something about being in water, zero gravity, womb-like, floating, quiet. I love it, washing the city off you, taking the train to Brighton Beach, driving up to this secret lake where I grew up. Makes me feel like a kid, clean, one with the earth, like everything’s gonna be ok.

The best $25 I spend every month. Literally pays for itself if you see one movie
plus if I see a bad movie I don’t feel like I wasted money

If you’re from brooklyn or new york city or just moved here, i know, this is cliche. But i! Don’t! Care! The truffle popcorn is addicting, even if I'm farting for the rest of the movie, it’s worth it. Plus they have cute little trailers to gab about with your date or friend, but i also go alone because nobody tried to have small talk with you at the movies and you can just disassociate peacefully in blissful high-power air conditioning on a hot nyc summer day. They have guest curators on a monthly basis and do fun screenings of old flicks. Highly recommend it. Nitehawk > Alamo.

I have another indie theater that I prefer because it’s cozier, has better vibes, is much closer to me, and everybody who works there is genuinely passionate about film. It’s not really anything special visually but it’s a beautiful institution and it’s so fun to be there ❤️
But this one is an old art deco theatre designed by architect John Eberson (he designed Loew’s Paradise in the Bronx and the Paradise Theatre in Chicago)! It’s pretty run down/poorly managed and staffed but it’s a gorgeous building and definitely worth visiting. Not my photos but included for illustrative purposes!!

When I was a teenager I had awful acne. I used to daydream that one day, somehow, having acne would be the height of fashion, and then it would be my time to shine. I don’t think that has really happened yet, but I still think it’s possible. The twisted thing though is I’ve always thought acne is beautiful on other people, tough, real, beautiful, vulnerable, sexy, emotional. People put stickers on them now, I say free the pimple.

I love people. I really just like two things, music and people. I don’t have any hobbies really. People make me feel like I’m here, on earth. Even if I’m holed up in my apartment or the studio, just knowing that they’re near is comforting to me for some reason. Nice to just sit and watch them. Fascinating, godly, humbling. I’ve usually got at least one nice thing to say about anyone.
