Poog with Kate Berlant and Jacqueline Novak4 Mars 2025

Grecian Marble Wet T-Shirt Contest

The human body can manage all manner of insults and injuries, but complimentary valet should be standard. Shiny versus glowy versus sliding down the hood of a car. Kate gets a hot towel at the barber shop. Jacqueline’s uncapped pen dries out. A Grecian marble wet t-shirt contest. Microdosing alcohol. A curly haircut takes three days to settle, but Kate needs someone to tell her it looks the same. Jacqueline wants to take up 3D printing and continues to yearn for a patent illustrator friend. Returning to your hometown Whole Foods. Reserving the Chantilly cake. In line for a honey baked ham that spans 10 blocks. Vegan caviar is here.
