A room full of incredible storytellers gathered to celebrate narrative art. The Lucas Museum's opening night was truly unforgettable.

Rest in peace, Pierre Damas Bel. 🇭🇹🕊️ When a 20-year-old loses hope because the world made him feel less human, we should not only ask what happened to him. We should ask, what happened to us?

Tonight, the Empire State Building tower lights will turn to a pink sparkle at 9:25 to honor the late Dolly Parton. Dolly was a global cultural icon whose seven-decade career reached generations of fans. Beyond entertainment, Dolly leaves a significant philanthropic legacy through the Dollywood Foundation and Imagination Library, which has provided hundreds of millions of books to children worldwide. At Nine-Two-Five tonight, we celebrate her and her legacy 💖 – at Manhattan, NY

Opening a much heralded Metro extension in the middle of a work day and not during the morning commute is dumb @metrolosangeles

There are two kinds of people: those who love Sly and the Family Stone and those who are mistaken.

I think my friends and family wouldn’t mind me being out of signal and on the dark side of the moon at least once a week.

Frederick Wiseman, 96, Penetrating Documentarian of Institutions, Dies

He exposed abuses in films like “Titicut Follies,” a once-banned portrait of a mental hospital, but ranged widely in subject matter, from a Queens neighborhood to a French restaurant.

Hi everyone, it looks like I ran out of time. I have so many dreams that I wanted to fulfill and plans to create new stories for you. There are a few in progress that might come to fruition in a few years if things work out. I did not ever imagine I would live to this age and end up a writer, editor, activist, and more. As a kid riddled with insecurity and internalized ableism, I could not see a path forward. It was thanks to friendships and some great teachers who believed in me that I was able to fight my way out of miserable situations into a place where I finally felt comfortable in my skin. We need more stories about us and our culture. You all, we all, deserve the everything and more in such a hostile, ableist environment. Our wisdom is incisive and unflinching. I'm honored to be your ancestor and believe disabled oracles like us will light the way to the future. Don't let the bastards grind you down. I love you all.
