Not me romanticizing a farewell, a bar, a city!

Last weekend I read a story at the closing party of Das Gift in Neukölln. Here's to cities, art, impermanence, and the nights that loom larger than the margins we fit them in.

⁣Motherland. 🇹🇼⁣⁣⁣
Two weeks in Taiwan, two decades of memory. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Wild nights, family roots, gothic black-sand beaches. The strange pull of home, even when it’s elusive. ⁣⁣⁣

Fine, I'll play. 2016: last full year in NYC. Part of me is frozen there. Hell, I'm still wearing my Adidas superstars. Leaving the center of the universe meant leaving the cutting edge. You win some, lose some. 🎞️Roll the tape: Maui and Montreal. East Harlem backyards, Prospect Park BBQs, Hudson boat parties. Shopping for activewear in activewear. Go pro footage, cringey snaps. 👻 Fun Home on Broadway. Sigur Rós at Radio City. Prep, professionally, by day; hot sauce in my bag by night. London & Berlin calling. TXL forever. ✈️🌎 by @obsessica

Writing these days feels…suspect.
I wrote about AI, counterfeit language, my entanglement with ChatGPT, and the embarrassment of trying to sound human when everything feels off.

p.s. I need this Mel Bochner yesterday - forget bookshelves, this is the perfect background for all my video calls. What could sum me up more? by @obsessica

What do you lose when you grow up?
A novel about Berlin inspired me to finally write about it –the midlife crisis, the New York to Berlin leap, motherhood, and the selves I left behind.

If you’ve ever felt like part of you died when you got older, moved away, had kids, or let your creative self slip away…this one’s for you. ❤️

Thank you @EricSchnall & @minoa.berlin for the spark.

I always wanted to be a popette... since the pope is American and I am, too - it's time.

Crayfish party 🌙🦞✨
Are we ready for this?? Throwback to 2017: heli landing on the lawn, Brännboll in the grass, Aquavit in the tent, dancing on tables till they collapsed, karaoke in the barn, techno + the scary fox at midnight 🦊...see you guys tomorrow, can't wait to do it again! taken in Stockholm, Sweden by @obsessica

Côte d’Azur, 2025.
Every time I come to the south of France, I feel like I’m stepping into the lost, glittering world of F. Scott, Zelda, and Hemingway.
And I run with it, minus the disillusionment, because… isn’t it pretty to think so? by @obsessica
