Hey guys, this seems really out of place for a blog like this, but I definitely appreciate your time to sign this petition.

For some context, the New York magazine is protecting an animal abuser in their platform. The person openly talks about neglecting their pet cat, Lucky, and completely disregards animal welfare which is absolutely mind boggling that they would allow such a story to be published.

The person takes ZERO responsibility for their actions and the NYMag is victimizing themselves when they're protecting a literal animal abuser and giving them a platform.

NYMag and The Cut are silencing people talking about the blatant abuse.

Here is some more info regarding the situation:

WTF nymag

As Israeli forces bomb civilians in Gaza, American activists and politicians are turning toward other, more tempting subjects. Maybe you’ve heard by now: Elite schools are in chaos. Students fight and administrators dither while donors complain, and the powerful are paying attention. The House recently convened a hearing on campus antisemitism, and tales of the Ivy League topped the New York Times homepage on Monday.

Campus speech isn’t an entirely inconsequential subject. Stripped down to its most basic element, the debate over speech is a fight over power. Who gets to speak is shorthand for who matters. If opponents of the anti-Zionist left can silence it, they can defeat it. That dynamic is heightened on the elite campus because in theory, to win that territory is to remake the ruling class.

I mean seriously, seriously. What a really gross statement to make. Filled lots of antisemitism and some really gross more insidious kinds too, and denial of antisemitism as too.

Please do not act the antisemitism on college campuses is not a concerning thing. Please do not ignore the fears of Jewish students.

Please do not try and turn Jews and Palestinians against one another. Please do act like you can't care about both things at the same and please do like not treat it like these issues cancel each other out.

"How Did You Hear About Us?"

“How do you know what to see?”

I often get asked this question by people who are having trouble finding out about shows and deciding which tickets to buy. Theatre marketing can leave something to be desired (not everyone is Shucked!) so being “in-the-know” about theatre can be tricky when you don’t know where to start. While there’s no single answer for how to find shows, I find the best way to become an avid theatre-knower is to do the following:

Cultivate your own taste- know the shows you like, don’t like, and why! Knowing your own taste is essential to understanding what shows you may like in the future! While you should also try to find shows that may not normally be on your radar, knowing your taste will help with the next step.

Find critics you trust- try to regularly check out professional theatre critics at major outlets, like Helen Shaw at the New Yorker, Jesse Green and Laura Collins-Hughes at the New York Times, and Jackson McHenry at NYMag/Vulture. Whether you find yourself agreeing or disagreeing with their theatre opinions, understanding their taste in relation to yours can help you find new shows you hadn’t previously been aware of.

Check the New York Times Critic’s Picks- these are usually hidden gems or Off-Broadway shows whose marketing may not otherwise reach you. If you’re not a NYTimes subscriber try to regularly check the Critic’s Pick page- depending on the size of the venue/production, shows that are critic’s picks can sometimes sell out after being chosen by the publication. (This method was how I found out about Jack’s production of James Ijames’ TJ Loves Sally 4 Ever, allowing me to find both a new artistic venue and a new playwright to follow!)

Follow “theatre people” on Twitter- In addition to those professionals publishing reviews, try to follow their twitters for more off-the-cuff opinions and recommendations. Additionally, follow theatre makers and influencers on Twitter as well- Casey Mink, Diep Tran, Heath Saunders, and Louis Peitzman discuss theatre a lot and following them has helped me snag tickets to shows before they become popular. Podcast host Lindsey Weber also has a Substack called Not Broadway that has some great recs too! I’m not on TikTok or Instagram, but if you happen to find people regularly posting on those, follow them too!

Regularly check venue websites- this is where I confess that a mailed flyer worked on me ONCE- I received a flyer for the Two River Theater production of Alice Childress’ Wine in the Wilderness. I had previously never heard of this New Jersey theater, and was extremely interested in seeing an Alice Childress play, given her many recent revivals. THAT SAID, I do not think emails or mailing lists are very effective as marketing tools- there’s simply so many that it’s impossible to sort through them. However, I now regularly check the seasonal schedule for Two River Theater, to see if there are any upcoming shows I want to see. This method works best for smaller, Off-Broadway or regional theaters, that have shorter runs and changing production schedules. If you do find a new theater you really love, try to make a habit of checking their seasonal schedule when you’re looking for a show!

Ultimately, be curious and keep looking! If you see a show you love, try to find productions of the creator’s other work, or keep tabs on their ongoing career. Actively keep up with venues that program niche or otherwise overlooked material. Starting with smaller venues and works can be a more affordable alternative to just buying tickets to the most recent Best Musical. At the end of the day, the only way to get into theatre is to get into theatre!

Happy to finally share my contribution to Milton Glaser’s legacy! Last year I had the great privilege of helping designer @mirkoiliccorp with the layout for his latest book, “Milton Glaser POP”, a vast collection of Milton’s work, from his beginnings until 1975. Co-authors of the book are @thedailyheller and @bskleber from @glaserarchives at @sva. The book, released by @monacellipress, contains a lot of book covers, posters and artwork, many of them never published before. It serves both as a reference book for anyone interested in studying Milton’s work from that era, as well as for anyone looking for inspiration. Through its pages we can truly admire Milton’s huge graphic versatility and inventive. Also mention the participation in the book of my colleague @dawnwatch, who assisted the team in various occasions. Hope you enjoy! #miltonglaser #pop #monacellipress #pushpinstudios #graphicdesign #illustration #nymag #historyofny #bethklever #mirkoilic #steveheller #sva #seymourchwast #1975 #bookcover #bookcoverdesign #poster #posterdesign #arcvhive #glaserarchives #schoolofvisualarts (at Union Square) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp706RIO0l8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

For Coates, the parallels with the Jim Crow South were obvious and immediate: Here, he writes, was a “world where separate and unequal was alive and well, where rule by the ballot for some and the bullet for others was policy.” And this world was made possible by his own country: “The pushing of Palestinians out of their homes had the specific imprimatur of the United States of America. Which means that it had my imprimatur.”

The Return of Ta-Nehisi Coates: A decade after “The Case for Reparations,” he is ready to take on Israel, Palestine, and the American media. (New York Magazine)

Ta-Nehisi Coates handles this interview beautifully.

He's maligned as a terrorist and implied to be anti-semitic.

But he lays down that he is opposed to all ethno-states and hates apartheid. Fantastic!
