Fairy time is almost over !! But you can still catch us on the common for one last weekend !! Performing out here has been like nothing I’ve ever experienced. The sheer scale of it all and the sheer joy I feel running through the crowds every night is beyond words.
And yes, that is a ball pit onstage. And yes, you should be very jealous. taken in Boston Common by @dani.niss

my best friends got married this weekend.
and it was perfect.

To Hannah and Leo,
I love you so very much.
Your love is inspiring. It is real and silly and generous and fun. I am so grateful to celebrate you on this day (and everyday). 7 years of friendship deep, and I am a better person because I know you both. I couldn’t have asked for a better couple of people to get me through covid in college dorms, to debate the definition of a sandwich late into the night, to watch movies and discuss favorite childhood books with. You have a forever place in my heart. And I cannot wait to witness this next chapter of your lives.
