“I’ve been second my whole life. I was the second-best player in high school. I was the second pick in the draft. I’ve been second in the MVP voting three times. I came in second in the finals. I’m tired of being second…I’m done with it.”

just a really powerful image. i think all these “kids vs monsters” illustrations are starting to shape the story themselves. i mean, we do need a story soon, but somewhere in that story these two characters will meet and it’ll be special.

NY MOMENT
How many of you have childhood memories of chasing fireflies on a warm summer night? Well now that memory can be recreated at the Whitney Museum. The adorable, Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama has created an installation, “Fireflies on the Water,” which creates a magical, glowing paradise. The installation consists of a small room with mirrored walls, two inches of water on the floor, a raised platform for a viewer to stand on and 150 colored lights dangling from the ceiling. Only one person is allowed in the room at a time. Once the door closes behind you, it’s like you’re suspended in outer space surrounded by infinite light or “fireflies”. The exhibit will be up until the end of October. For more info, click here.
