“People think that I am whatever I tweeted. That my entire being and my entire personality and all of my values can be encapsulated in one post on the internet. But life is long.…The fact that people still hold me to standards online that they held me to when I was, like, 14 years old is crazy to me.” —Ivy Wolk

Ivy Wolk on the Massachusetts lesbian bar discourse: “People want to feel safe. People want to feel like their communities are not being infringed upon. People want to feel like they can show up on Saturday night and see that everybody is wearing a mask because that’s what they’ve come to expect. Because the world outside this bar is so hectic. I have empathy for that, but also I would never be in a room with any of those people. Our lives don’t coincide.”

“I’m not interested in presenting as easygoing or simple.” —Ivy Wolk

Ivy Wolk doesn’t care if you pay attention to her or not: “Today, regardless of who was paying attention, I would be posting myself on the internet willy-nilly. I do it because I like connecting with people and using the internet as an artistic medium.”
