"I mean it's subtle, but if you have a sensitive palate you can totally tell" the difference, said co-owner Adam Ruhf.

Upstairs, a D.J. who resembled Jesus Christ played dub reggae, and when the sun crept below the jaw-dropping Manhattan skyline, it seemed to activate everyone’s internal Instagram clock. A sea of iPhones shot up to capture the blazing pink hues (#nofilter), as if the singer Grimes had just made a surprise appearance at a Skrillex concert.

Since Wythe refuses to do bottle service, determined drinkers (including a group of Swedes who kept barking orders for rosé wine) were forced to bring their own ice buckets to the outdoor tables. This is what passes for V.I.P. in the land of D.I.Y.

How can anyone who writes about New York City for a living still refer to waterfront Williamsburg as "the land of D.I.Y."? You might as well call the West Village "the land of folkies."

I feel like that and the Times article a couple years ago about how it supposedly became *trendy* to have a gut make nice bookends to Williamsburg's late period.

Also saltwater pools are kind of amazing. I don't know anything about this "Wythe" or "New York City" though.

in re george soros' kid. sure there are problems involved with growing up with great wealth. everybody has problems. this is not a worthwhile revelation. in his case, in being also yojng and apparently as healthy as most people his age, his problems are all pretty low hurdles to get over.

She recalled the confusion on the face of the manager at the East Village sandwich shop where she was working at the time when she told him that she needed a book leave and that she was moving back to her parents’ house in New Jersey. “He was like, ‘O.K., whatever,’ ” she said.
if anyone in any context said the words 'i need a book leave' the only appropriate response is 'O.K., whatever,' tbh

it is so hard to picture these being generated outside of a sandwich shop, numbed by a shift, reduced to just voicing fleeting thoughts with whatever stationery was available. i can't imagine being on book leave, at a desk, with a coffee cooling and a sharpened pencil & then drawing these.
