Seek Treatment), Cohen s debut poetry collection
God I Feel Modern Tonight: Poems from a Gal About Town (Knopf, 2021) has just been released. Striking a careful balance between the poetic ( I love sex and I love before it /the double vodka soda leg touch ) and the playful ( going swimming is an amazing way/to stop being on your phone ), Cohen never ceases to entertain. I spoke with Catherine shortly after the book was published.

God I Feel Modern Tonight is subtitled

May the Fourth be with you each year on National Star Wars Day. Or is it, “May the force be with you?” It all depends on whether you like using puns or not.
Thousands of Star Wars enthusiasts celebrate this day each year with parties and celebrations around the nation.
Star Wars fans didn’t first introduce the often quoted phrase on May 4th. It was 1979, and Britain elected the first female Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher. On May 4th, the day she took office, the Conservative Party placed an advertisement in The London Evening News, which read, “May the Fourth Be with You, Maggie. Congratulations.”
What Is Star Wars Day? The History Of May The 4th Be With You
Here s why May 4 is such a big deal.
May the 4th be with you. You ll see people online writing that every single year on this date, and it seems a little weird, right? It feels weird to write it today. Every year, May 4 is widely considered to be Star Wars Day, where fans across the globe celebrate the sci-fi franchise. But what does it mean and where does it come from?
Star Wars: A New Hope hit theaters on May 25, 1977. The movie was a smashing success making over $775 million globally. Keep in mind, this is 1977 and getting close to that $1 billion mark during that time was huge. It was already a cultural phenomenon, just after one movie. And 44 years later, it s still going strong.
1. May the Fourth be with you
Celebrating the Star Wars film franchise, Star Wars Day is observed by fans on May the Fourth, an obvious pun on the popular Jedi phrase “May the Force be with you.
Taking puns a step further, May 5 has come to be called “Revenge of the Fifth,” a play on “Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith,” a day for fans to join the “dark side” and celebrate the Sith lords from the Star Wars movies.
2. Fully fan inspired
While Star Wars Day is a tribute to the movies made by George Lucas, Lucasfilm had nothing to do with the holiday’s creation or its ongoing observance.
