DIE MY LOVE is intense and pretty spectacular. As are Lynne Ramsey’s sneakers.

Gracias everyone for the bday wishes. I did my usual solo walking day. Had a burger + Guinness at Molly’s Shabeen, saw the very wonderful FRANKENSTEIN at the Paris Theatre, appreciated my most favorite fall tree on my block + then ended the day w/fam at Gage and Tollner.

Kept it local to the Brooklyn #nokings protest and was rewarded by seeing this sign.

In pajamas watching a Japanese outdoor bonfire on YouTube with a little bourbon on ice in my hand, all while listening to Nick Drake and absolutely not thinking about our fucking government... ocean waves, ocean waves...

Did you know that Rudy Giuliani isn't just a bad guy in real life but he's also a bad guy in my 1998 set NYC book? The plot connects w/after effects of RG rejecting the findings of the Mollen Commission + the environment it created. Dude sucks but my book is good. Get it. linktr.ee/BrooklynMotto

This shorty by the ball fields in Prospect Park always feels like the first to turn in the fall.

Sorta like Batman, but it’s a skeleton in Brooklyn on my roof.
