Canal st. Between essex and chrystie

I’m not sure why most people aren’t more aware but this nyc three block radius is criminally slept on. you Would guess it would just be on some Chinatown shit but something must have changed this one part of the neighborhood randomly and now almost every square inch has endless opportunity to discover delicious food, wine, clothing, or other kinds of rare artistic and ephemeral objects. You can legit just walk around here and any place you wander into will be sick. Plus there are tons of babes Everywhere. There’s even a dope movie theatre where they play the artistic type movies. I predict in the next 1-2 years this will become a go to spot for artists and free thinkers to spend their time and rent apartments to chill in in a cheaper neighborhood where they can have the sort of conversations other people are too pussy to have and I’m only putting y’all on early because i fuck with you

LORD OF MISRULE PERFUME

My favourite pheromone… Within moments of topical application, even the shyest of mammals feverishly flock to ask… Miss, what IS that(?)! I often feel like I‘m Jean-Baptiste in the finale scene of Tom Tykwer’s Perfume. Which always begs the question… why didn’t he ASK the women if he could collect their scents ¿! If he leaned into being a gorgeous, quirky, educated young man rather than let his obsessions spook the dolls, it could’ve been a win win experience… You get a custom perfume and I get a spa day (which in the 18th century couldn't have been very popular!!)

THE END OF MR Y BY SCARLETT THOMAS

Amongst the abundance of an anonymous book exchange, it was this book that left an impressive oil stain… It taught me how to translate thoughts as a compass and not enemies…offering new but functional perspective… • The main character is hopeless and defiant in every human way • The obstacles merge with magic and science • The language is inviting and playful (look into ‘Troposphere’) I was preserved in a lawless comfort the entire read and I have mourned many times since finishing it…
