It’s International Women’s Day. I cut off half a foot of my hair. Here’s a picture for the algorithm, to pull you in close like a good poet can do, to tell you I’ve been thinking a lot about being a woman lately. I’ve been thinking about women all over the world, especially those in conflict zones, whose bodies are collateral damage in wars, politics, the work place, our own homes. Women who have been assaulted, kidnapped, silenced, displaced, disappeared. I’m thinking about South Sudanese women, Palestinian women, Congolese women, Iranian women, Haitian women, Jewish women, Ukrainian women, American women. ALL women. I’m thinking about E. Jean Carroll getting justice decades later against a man this country might say yes to again. I’m thinking about why we keep saying yes to these men, again and again. I’m thinking about the ghosts of the MeToo movement; the stories I heard that still haunt me, that will never get their reckoning, their day in court, their light of day. I’m thinking about what we let happen to Brittany Watts, American Black mothers, and the women in Alabama who were so close to getting their IVF transfers. I’m thinking of the women who will never get to have their babies, and the women who never got to say goodbye to their own. I’m thinking about when Ada Limón wrote that the insides of herself are part female, part male, part terrible dragon, and how much I know this to be true. I’m thinking about everything that’s burned in the fires of other’s mouths, how much blood we’ve collectively lost, us women, from all of it—enough to fill a thousand oceans. I’m thinking of all that we hold, and all that is ripped away from us. Of the ways we are torn into, split apart, pitted against one another.
Today I’m thinking about you. Each and every one of you, across the world. Here are some orgs I love that are thinking about women and girls, too. Share yours in the comments.

My least favorite person and 17th favorite poet is 50 years young today (yesterday, really) and I can’t believe how many poetry tours on motorcycles, arguments in bars, impromptu shows in living rooms, lifeguard towers, and double decker buses we’ve been through together— how many cigarettes we’ve wanted to put out on each other’s faces, how many bottles of bourbon we’ve raced to the bottom of, how many people’s broken hearts we’ve shattered or helped put back together again, how many horrible, honest, holy moments we’ve shared along the way. Twenty years to be exact. (See our first show flier from Upright Citizens Brigade in 2004.) We were such young puppies in some of these pictures taken by @mattwignall across too many tours and cities to count. Now look at us: too old to party and too hot to handle.
Happy birthday, brother. I love you, occasionally. Someday I hope they write a movie about your crazy life and cast a less attractive, semi-talented Harry Styles. Until then, nothing can imitate the real thing: you, and what you’ve got, and what you’ve given to the world.
“Teased by success,
we are like vampires in a tampon factory. It doesn’t have to be that way.
Someone plug my lungs back into the guitar amps. All distortion, all the time.
Aren’t you sick of being appraised wholesale? Aren’t you sick of sailing on listing ships? Aren’t you weary from playing cello with ex-lover’s bones?
I am.”
-All Distortion All The Time, Derrick Brown

First book, first unboxing video at 89 years old. Who says you can’t achieve major life goals when you’re older? My dad, the actor and acrobatic dancer Russ Tamblyn, has a memoir coming out in just a few weeks. Stories about teaching Elvis famous dance moves, giving Paul Newman a ride in the trunk of his car, behind the scenes as Dr. Jacoby in David Lynch’s “Twin Peaks” and a whole lot more. Make this spunky senior’s day and pre-order yourself a copy of “Dancing on the Edge” today. Link in my bio. 🎥 made by my Uber talented nephew @doseyx
I have seen some of the most gloriously inspiring work in New York by friends over the last few weeks. How lucky are we to have these artists in the world right now? (Very lucky.)
Teeth at Playwrights Horizons
By Michael R. Jackson and Anna K. Jacobs choreographed by Raja Feather Kelly, directed by Sarah Benson. Wild, dangerous, shocking, darkly funny.
Illinois at The Park Avenue Armory based on a record by Sufjen Stevens I was not familiar with but this adaptation for the stage completely took my breath away, told entirely through the music and the body of dancers. A masterpiece. Written and adapted by Jackie Sibblies-Drury.
The Storyville Mosquito at Lincoln Center created by Kid Koala. One of the most brilliant things I’ve ever seen: a live movie made in real time for the audience, in a production that combines live puppetry, cinematic camera techniques and music. Eric, you just blow me away. Good to see friends in the audience too. Tour info: KidKoala.com
Go see go see go see all of it!
