Furniture shopping is made more complex when you only like things that were built a minimum of 30 years ago but alas

Life lately ☁️

The birds are chirping, the sun is out, I’m looking at late summer flights to Montreal… Happy Sunday! 😘

I’ve been getting very spoiled lately, loving this chapter of my life, and becoming both pickier and hotter with age

Taking in the slow, soft morning light

One of the things I like about Bluesky is that I feel like I connect with more providers from outside the US here. I love us so much, we truly are everywhere. Less screen time was one of my 2026 goals, and being away from Twitter is helping that too. It’s feeling good.

He reached out to inquire about dinner in SF, but our schedules didn’t align, so he pivoted and planned a 24 hr date in LA instead. Nothing hotter than a creative, decisive man.

Next week I’ll be road tripping down Highway One, making lots of fun stops, and enjoying our beautiful coast. If you’d like me to plan one around a date with you, reach out! I’m open to suggestions of little detours and sights to visit along the way. 🚘

Lately 🌈

When she has two phones, a mysterious source of income, and is about to change your life.

My masseuse in LA used to call me her “cash princess” because I always paid in cash, but lately I’ve been coming in with gift certificates and she thinks it’s so funny. I saw her yesterday and she said “They know what you like!” I nodded, then she said, “Tell them, I need more!” 😂 Very supportive.

That was fast! Thank you so, so much. 🥰🥰🥰

Added this gorgeous girl to my wishlist because I love to mix metals and I need her in my life

In San Francisco til 4/3, with room in my schedule for a Saturday date at the Ferry Building 🖤

Long travel day into a beautiful rainy night in San Francisco, and an evening in to relax and recharge… baby’s getting Burmese food

Came home with my hair smelling like the private cigar bar at the Ritz and started taking selfies

I’m so fascinated by people who only take a carry-on bag for a weeklong trip. I have so many questions… what products do you bring? What shoes do you wear? How many layers are you packing? This is like learning about another culture for me.

I’m heading to St. Louis and San Francisco next week. ✨ It’s my first time visiting STL and I’d love recommendations for good food and fun spots to check out in my downtime.

Girlfriend Material 💕

Someone had to reschedule the other day because he was sick, so he sent me a massage off my wishlist and said, “If you don’t make other plans, hopefully you can enjoy this as a replacement for our date,” and… let’s just make that the default protocol from now on. 🥰

A little escape

Who wants to fall in love with me?

What’s your post-photoshoot treat? Mine is definitely pasta. I’ve been fantasizing about linguine vongole all week, and tonight I’ll have it for dinner. I’ve also been dreaming about injeolmi bingsu. Sugar & carbs! 😝

Hear me out: The coconut gelato with Cara Cara oranges at RVR

Need a boyfriend who’s an architecture nerd so we can just walk around beautiful buildings staring at the walls and ceilings while I get a little history lesson *Architects may also apply

Daydreamer ✨

Newsletters have gone out! Check your spam folder 💕

One minute I’m stumbling upon an HVAC industry conference letting out at a hotel bar, the next I’m being paid to eat Korean food delivery in a man’s hotel room and listen to him talk, life’s so funny!

If you’ve never burned APFR incense in your home I’m gonna need you to go and do that immediately

St. Louis, San Francisco, New York, Seattle, and Honolulu are all places I’ll be visiting in spring and summer! My first newsletter of 2026 goes out tomorrow morning— subscribe for details, little updates, cheeky hellos… you know where to find it. 💌

Doing hot girl sh*t (untangling necklaces)

Fresh and clean

I heard a bunch of people cheering last night in my neighborhood and I couldn’t figure out why, so then I immediately went online to see if maybe Trump had died? Wishful thinking I fear 😭

Good morning 😘

Curling up and watching a movie together on an overnight is truly underrated and such a sweet form of intimacy. The real girlfriend experience!

This is the energy ✨ I love looking forward to seeing people again who I know I’m going to have a wonderful time with. 🥰

I was hoping someone would snag this air purifier off my wishlist. 🥰 Getting your fave high-quality practical gifts for everyday use is very hot btw!

Date idea: we split a couple sandwiches at Larchmont Wine & Cheese, grab gelato to go from Bacio, and go back to your place where I receive a nice long massage

This and multiple orgasms

One thing I feel I must mention being so heavily face-in is that I have extremely cute dimples.

An unexpected thing that’s come from my move is I’ve found myself playing guitar regularly again, feeling the urge to pick it up and mess around almost daily. I don’t know if it’s the extra space, the sunshine, or the California air, but it feels amazing. My brain is so happy here.

I make an ideal first mate ❣️

I don’t have a domme but I do have an accountant who makes me punch numbers into a spreadsheet every month and that feels similar tbh

The agony of realizing there was a typo in your tweet vs the pleasure of knowing your human brain will always be sexier than AI

Anaïs Nin’s Silverlake home is forever on my mood board, but I just learned her partner commissioned Frank Lloyd Wright’s grandson to build it for her because she was bicoastal with a lover in New York, and he wanted to anchor her in California and now I love it even more.

Walking around my neighborhood in a white tank top and no bra, LA traffic just got a little less safe

Kindly requesting to be taken to Lielle to eat uni pasta 😊

I love finding Alo Yoga giftcards in my inbox btw 💗

My latest Substack post is out, and attempts to articulate some of the complex things I’ve been feeling lately, along with the relationships between sadness and pleasure, fear and joy, and they ways they intersect in my life and work. open.substack.com/pub/melodyun...
