Probably the coolest thing I own is this old ass hardcover 300+ page compilation of issues of “Brooklyn Advance,” a news and literary journal, from 1882-83. Got it for $40 at an antique spot in Oakland.

Here’s what Egbert Viele wished, in 1861, what Brooklyn’s Prospect Park would be.

Hours left on this amazing deal! I just had a NEWBORN DAUGHTER and I want her to live in a NYC with GREAT LOCAL JOURNALISM! DO NOT disappoint her!!!!

Chris Martin getting blasted with some newborn farts but when he opens em up he sees all the diaps are clean

The fact that there are three endings to Clue (1985) has a lot of metaphysical implications.

just had the literal worst experience of my life

Coming up with Halloween costumes for my 3-week-old daughter and the best one I can come up with is Detective John Klute from Klute (1971).

yesterday was the second confirmed day that we had two sets of people doing Loops, a walking audio mystery though Prospect Park, and The Lady in Greenpoint, a 3-mile walking audio ghost story starting at the Pulaski Bridge 🎧🚶‍♂️👍

As someone who knows a thing or two about the value of limited-edition printed media, it will BEHOOVE you to procure your physical zine copy of the Hell Gate Courts of Contempt if you want to let's say not worry about your retirement. 💅

The weather says it is now Loops season

👏test👏that👏situationship👏 theladyingreenpoint.com

this is going to be a wildly horny weekend out here in NYC. perhaps the horniest. people are PENT UP! babies will be CONCEIVED. we are going to see everything from a small business opening up to planes hitting our world trade centers.

Wow. I am honored that @sanders.senate.gov has endorsed Loops, a walking audio mystery through Prospect Park, as the ideal way to spend a few hours this beautiful weekend in New York City. Free to do. www.loopsprospectpark.com

There’s a terrifying blink-and-you’ll-miss-it-shot in the latest Widow’s Bay that kinda left me in awe.

Love the view from Greenpoint’s gorgeous new park!

Things I didn’t know about newborns I now know: - you can’t give them water to drink! - they lose some weight in the hours after they’re born and have to regain it - newborns can get baby acne around 2-4 weeks - they can’t see shit so they cross-eye a bit when trying to focus

You gotta watch this video and also “re-skeet” it and also subscribe or you are dead to me

I went on the last one of these bike plays that Philly’s Agile Rascal put together, and this “bike theater” as a medium is so incredibly cool, some group in NYC has to get on its wavelength.

My newborn baby has now experienced the Pulaski Bridge being up. 👍

Top 5 celebrity sightings (in no order): -David Cross at a Silverlake Junction party -Kate Winslet at Malibu Ralph's -Lighting Matthew Perry's cig outside a theater -Peeing next to Marilyn Manson at Arclight Hollywood -Richard Kind on a street within 24 hrs of moving to NYC

I made this forbidden basket before at the version in Art Omi. I have video somewhere.

Inflation is so bad these days she changed her name to Hawk Threeah!

Wait why is the Oakland housing market crashing so hard? Keeping a very close eye on this trend…

Really enjoy this artwork in the front lobby-ish area of a Greenpoint building. 👍

There’s never been a better time to climb aboard the Hell Gate Express 🚊

Another good day to try out Loops!

Growing up one thing that was important to me was listening to radio because it was being broadcast from “The City.” In my case it was Chicago. But it came from a live physical geographic location I could dream on. Podcasting can never replicate this magic.

The rumors are true. MALINKO, a thriller about a newlywed couple on a Route 66 honeymoon who stumble onto a mysterious radio show, is once again on the shelves of Word Bookstore (126 Franklin St.) in Greenpoint.

Here’s a photo from Greenpoint.

Incredible street art find

We’re back 🤘

okay actually being a bartender for the past 2.5 years actually has been helpful in training for how to take care of a newborn lol

I gotta get some “earned media” on Loops I cannot post this annoyingly for so long.

Watching the whole crew work on this over the past year has been so inspiring. Check it out and smash that subscribe button: hellgatenyc.com/membership/

In this house we only recognize one Met Gal… a

When you’re spending thousands of hours and more than a few years making Loops, a serialized walking audio mystery through Prospect Park, that people can do for free but there is indeed a $10 suggested donation.

BREAKING: Jason Derulo has fallen down the stairs at the Met Gala!

Here’s a photo from Greenpoint.

If you ever get the chance to check out this terminal, do so.

For this year’s Greenpoint Open Studios (May 30-31) I am displaying the Lady in Greenpoint charcoals and map and other ephemera at the bar where I work (which is also a stop on walking audio ghost story itself) so you can do the walk and look at some art and say hello.

tfw u may have waited too long to buy let alone read MALINKO, a thriller about a newlywed couple on a Route 66 honeymoon who stumble onto a mysterious radio show
