any thoughts on bushwick?

I don't get why people use this drug. It's clearly bad news.

Went to Bossa Nova Civic Club last night and were clearly the oldest people by ten years. Fun though. Good DJs.

I've never been, which shows my relevance and reputation these days.

I’d be surprised if we weren’t the only married people too.

a five-block parameter huh?

I used to feel that way in Bushwick too and I was 26/27 when I lived there man alive

Also Bunker was very good

i used to live above BNCC lol true story

in fact i lived there when Wale shot the video for "Bad" there

not really sure where else to post this without feeling awkward, but: our house on lawton street caught fire last week. my roommate's room, our kitchen and living room were totally wiped out, ditto the upstairs kitchen and living room, and every bedroom in the house got at least some measure of smoke and water damage. everybody has had to move out and is in the process of extracting and trying to clean/save anything not blatantly soaked and sooted to the bone. this has not really been very fun in a lightless house with face masks and headlamps. the worst thing of all is that our cat passed away of smoke inhalation, which i really don't even want to talk about. we're hoping it was quick and relatively painless.

i say all this as a preamble to, there is a gofundme for all us housemates (save Shuj4 H41d3r who lived downstairs of me - if you follow him on twitter you know he got his act together sooner to set up a fundraiser [plus had separate additional expenses to deal with] and has also shared this one). i hardly would ask any of y'all internet cats here to donate but please consider sharing, and more in the spirit of ILX, coming out to the bar-room fundraisers this friday! happy hour at marcos (broadway & malcolm x) from 2 to 8 followed by band showcase at The Gateway from 8:00 on. come have a drink, bring your friends, spread the word! i will be the frequently unshaven man wearing stupid hipster aviator glasses.

jeezus Doc, what a bummer. hope things go well, fast!

Sorry about your losses. Someone on your page should probably spell Rafael Espinal's name correctly.

ah jeez, sorry doc - that’s awful, especially your poor kitty

fuck

sorry for your cat but really good news that no humans were hurt

thanks, y'all. it's been tough but this has definitely reminded me how many people care and want to help - have not had to worry about places to sleep and stuff like that and that takes a ton of what would be nightmarish stress out of the picture. i was at target to buy a rolling suitcase and some underwear/socks and saw a dumb t-shirt with an "I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends" motif and i was like, right on.

and MV, i'll pass that on to to the guy that set up the gofundme, appreciate it.

aw man i'm sorry dc all the best to you, that is awful. im glad you all are safe and im sorry about your cat

oh no doc i am stunned and appalled to hear this

damn, sorry man

you all are terrific. recognized a few ILXor names in the donation list and was really touched. y'all didn't have to do all that! <3 <3 <3

still getting by okay. couchsurfing while i work through cleaning/reboxing/purging the stuff that i did haul out of the place. hopefully when that's done there's enough space in my friend's spare room for me to crash while i look for an apartment, but i've also had several other offers of places to stay in march so that's one big worry taken out of the picture.

good luck doc - glad you've got people who can help

Best of luck Doctor. Fire and the aftermath is such a devastating thing to have to go through, I know. I'm very glad you've got so many good people around you. Hang in there.
