Aperol Spritz but throw away the champagne and replace it with the champagne of beers.Ā Best enjoyed at a sidewalk cafe or in the park. Drink 2-3 for best results.

My mom taught me this in order to slow down the nervous system. Breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 4, breathe out for 4, hold for 4. If you're an anxious person you probably already know this. Also a good way to fall asleep really fast.

One of the most underrated areas of Brooklyn. Not as yuppie as Williamsburg proper, and not as dirtbag as Bushwick. There's definitely a lack of good restaurants and bars but it makes up for it in space, accessibility, and quiet. Specific recs are The Anchored Inn, Win Son, and Cooper Park.

A rare experience in the city. House parties have a charm and intimacy that just can’t be matched by a bar. Everyone’s forced to physically brush up against each other and talk to people they might not otherwise. A good house party is sexy in this way. Anyone who attended my last halloween party knows this well.

Extremely underrated British post-punk band. The frontman had schizophrenia and killed himself by jumping in front of a train. Choice cuts are ā€œHeartlandā€ and ā€œMissiles,ā€ but their best song is ā€œI Can’t Escape Myself.ā€ Tortured, catchy, and exploding with angst.

Translates to to ā€œPen in the Ceiling,ā€ Stylo for short. It’s Matt Michaud and Kieran Sutton’s new homespun fashion project which shares aesthetic sensibilities with Hollywood Gifts and Praying. I also see a little bit of Philadelphia painter Exene Karros’s influence. Their hand drawn designs include references to Blackrock, army men, Peter Griffin, Gamestop, Quiznos, Shell Gasoline, Ableton Live, and nuclear warheads. In essence, it captures the confusion and wonder of growing up in suburban America.

An absolutely nightmarish fantasia. First saw it on youtube in sophomore year of college and it blew my mind completely. I instantly felt understood by it and jealous that I didn’t make it. Its shocking and campy and overwhelming and a little scary too. My favorite quote is ā€œOpen the fucking fuckdoor."
