I like Tacoma more than Seattle and I will die on this hill.

Nyx has decided it's not research time yet.

Hey @historicalmarker.bsky.social I'm in Beale Street

MFW when they mispronounce my name at a thing that took me half a lifetime to achieve

Got my first degree. My eyebrows tried to leave my face about it.

Fuck it cemetery content era

Piney Grove Cemetery is hidden behind luxury condos in the Buckhead neighborhood of Atlanta. To say it is in disrepair is an understatement.

This is Ariadne and she has never done anything wrong in her life. Ever.

The bigots responsible for this also received an email from National directly that they posted to their public Facebook group. It's equally shady-- "we can't be bothered to email everyone about this so we are putting this on you."

DAR had their big board meeting today and the people throwing tantrums about trans women will not be happy.

Lastly, Honorary Chair LeBron James.

LeBron James knows a suit. Simple as.

He clearly understands and embraces fashion as art. Having a tuxedo tailored to make you look like a little boy is a perfect choice for the premiere of a children's movie, for example.

Then there's Pharrell Williams. Let's just get the big hat picture out of the way.

He's fun. He's an artist's artist. His biopic is on LEGO animation, for Pete's sake.

I do think he is going to have a great take on the suiting theme, however.

I'm more lukewarm about A$AP Rocky. On one hand, he is a man who doesn't just wear a black tux to the Gala-- a small but crucial group. He literally calls himself Fashion Killa and he absolutely understands fashion as art.

That being said, I still have trouble accepting this outfit.

Saying Lewis Hamilton is just an F1 driver is like saying Taft was just president -- you're leaving out the part that makes him historic. For Taft, it was becoming Chief Justice of the SCOTUS. For Hamilton, it's his activism and philanthropy. Plus, he kills it at the Gala every year.

Colman Domingo has a lot of culture bona fides but my fave is he was a producer for the Broadway run of Little Ham, a Black, queer, Southern retelling of Hamlet

Admittedly, 7 years ago I couldn't imagine saying "I can't leave the house due to ice and snow on the driveway" yet here we are

Chevarria is one of my favorite modern designers and he absolutely nailed it at last year's Gala. Here is Colman Domingo in Chevarria last year.

Mark my words, you will see this collab again at the Met Gala
