Proud to be one of INvolve People’s Outstanding 100 LGBTQ+ Executives internationally, but even prouder to be in the room tonight for the #InvolveGala2026 with ALL of the incredible leaders recognized for their work in advocacy, allyship, equity, and representation. Thank you, Suki Sandhu and team, for your vision and heart and tireless work. You make this world better indeed! Love you! @INvolvePeople @MrSukiSandhu

New friend alert. Thanks for the fabulous catch up, Alex Rubin, AND photo (my one sleepy eye notwithstanding!). Glad me buying a Myki Meeks keychain from you at Roscoe's Tavern last week led to this connection. Also, Bisous is a divine spot here in Chicago! Highly recommend - tens across the board! @Roscoestavern @myki_meeks

Barney Frank was one of a kind. For more than three decades in Congress, he fought tirelessly for the people of Massachusetts, helped make housing more affordable, stood up for the rights of LGBTQ+ Americans, and helped pass one of the most sweeping financial reforms in history designed to protect consumers and prevent another financial crisis. Barney’s passion and wit were second to none, and our thoughts are with his family today.

I love when my colleagues have passion. That inimitable creative spark they bring to work and play. A fire that should always be supported. What a thrill to see Brennan Auth and his band Killmoves in their ZONE tonight at Schubas Tavern. They were fire. Tight, percussive, epic. So proud to see humans living their best lives.

I think people know I’m a bit … obsessed … with Elmo’s ongoing feud with his pal #Zoe’s “pet” rock #Rocco. As a metaphor for the well-intentioned, consistently bubbling, occasionally erupting exasperation we all feel from what seems like an hourly stream of #gaslighting in today’s world, it just works. And is oddly comforting. And darn entertaining. So of course I bought this #Elmo #GoldenBook! 😅🙌 @elmo
