Taking a moment tonight to think back on where I was and what I was doing on that fateful day. I still don’t know why I deserved to go to bed safe and sound on 9/11 when others didn’t, and I still don’t know why I deserve to enjoy a beautiful, peaceful day today when so many others don’t. But I’m forever grateful to the brave people who give me this gift every single day, and I hope I’m living a life worthy of their sacrifices.

What an immense honor it is to witness a good friend’s incredible creation inspire others’ creativity–especially when said friend is @ransomriggs and the inspiree is Tim Burton! So many congratulations to @ransomriggs and @taherehmafi on the very first(!!) screening of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children! Couldn’t happen to two better people. ❤️❤️ @primo_gal and I love you both–thank you for sharing this incredible, special evening with us!! (The movie is SO GOOD you guys. Go see it. But first–read the spectacular book!!) #StayPeculiar #missperegrine

Ok so you know what I discovered? In the Young Elites, Adelina’s surname is Amouteru. If you rearrange the letters, it becomes Amour Tue: French for Love Kills. Have a great day!
I love everything about this.

In which Primo and I woke the neighborhood cheering when @taherehmafi walked onto Late Night With Seth Meyers!!! (She had the most epic boots ever–a fact even Seth Meyers commented on!! I couldn’t get a good shot of them, but you can see them on @ransomriggs ’s feed!) YAY Tahereh, you rocked this!!! ❤️❤️❤️
