THE OPIOID CRISIS LOOKBOOK IS THE ONLY MAGAZINE I'D HONESTLY SPEND MONEY ON AND I SAY THAT AS SOMEONE WHO GREW UP ADDICTED TO FASHION RAGS. ITS NOT A FASHION MAGAZINE OR A FASHION LOOK BOOK AT ALL. THE EDITORS DUSTIN AND DASHA ARE MAYBE THE MOST GENIUS ARTISTS I KNOW. THE ART AND THE WRITING IS ALWAYS INCREDIBLE AND NOT IN A SHOCK FACTOR BULLSHIT WAY. IT TRULY FREED MY MIND BLAH BLAH. LOOK OUT FOR MY INTERVIEW WITH THE LEGENDARY LAURA ALBERT (SOMETIMES KNOWN AS JT LEROY) IN THE UPCOMING THIRD ISSUE.

EVERYONE IN NEW YORK LIKES TO SHIT ON MIDTOWN. I THINKS THERES THIS IDEA THAT HATING ON MIDTOWN MAKES YOU A REAL NEW YORKER BUT THESE DAYS ITS ACTUALLY MEGA HIPSTER TO LOVE MIDTOWN AND CALL IT UNDERRATED. SPECIFICALLY WEST MIDTOWN. NOT LIKE FUCKING MURRAY HILL. IN PROXIMITY TO HELLS KITCHEN IS THE BEST, HELLS KITCHEN HAS THE BEST SALVATION ARMY IN AN OLD DIRTY BUILDING WITH GREAT FURNITURE AND TONS OF ACTUALLY THRIFT PRICED CLOTHING AND ITS CONFUSING TO GET INTO THE BUILDING AND ITS RIGHT BY THAT FREEDOM TUNNEL GRAFFITI WRITERS LOVE. MIDTOWN AND HELLS KITCHEN HAS SOME OF THE LAST CRUSTY WEIRDO OLD PEEPS THAT MAKE THE CITY FAB, LIKE PEEPS THAT MUTTER TO THEMSELVES AND HAVE WEIRD OUTFITS AND CLEARLY HAVE HAD THE SAME RENT CONTROL APARTMENTS FOR LIKE A BILLION YEARS AND KNOW EVERYONE ON THEIR BLOCK AND STORIES ABOUT THE “OLD NEW YORK” AND GET THE CITY MYTHOLOGY THAT WE ALL ARE SUCKERS FOR!!!!!!

ABOUT A YEAR AGO WHEN I REALIZED I WAS A WRITER I BECAME OBSESSED WITH ALL THINGS BEATNIK, BEAT-CHIC, AND BOHEMIAN. ITS THE BEST WRITER CLICHE EVER. CLICHES ARE A GREAT THING, ESPECIALLY IN NEW YORK EFFING CITY. A FEW MONTHS AGO I HAD A HAPPENING, IN HONOR OF LE GREAT BEAT WRITERS AND PARTIERS. I WAS MOSTLY BLACKED OUT ON PILLS THE ENTIRE TIME, BUT THATS LE VIBE OF A HAPPENING. TYPICAL READINGS ARE BORING AND BASICALLY AN UN-CHIC ABOMINATION. A HAPPENING IS VINTAGE, MESSY, A BIG MIX OF PARTY ENERGY WITH A SALON FLAIR. WE HAD BONGO DRUMS, FOLK MUSIC, SHITTY POEMS, ARTSY PERFORMANCES. IT WAS A TOTAL SHIT SHOW BUT ALSO PEACEFUL AND FAB. I SCREAMED A BUTCHERED VERSION OF HOWL, OBVIOUSLY. IF I GET IT TOGETHER ENOUGH I'LL HAVE ANOTHER IF THERE AREN'T TOO MANY KNOCK OFFS BY THEN. YOU SHOULD ALL COME AND READ OR PLAY THE TAMBOURINE OR WHATEVER. MAKE SURE TO DRESS LIKE BOB DYLAN OR PATTI SMITH OR A DOWNTOWN CLICHE.

FOR YEARS I HAVE BEEN INCLUDING MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS ON MY BLOGS LISTS OF FASHION TIPS, ESPECIALLY FOR MEN. INSTEAD OF STANDING OUTSIDE A CLUB OR A BAR OR CLASS OR A CASTING OR WHATEVER ON YOUR PHONE LIKE A LOSER, GET A SMALL INSTRUMENT. YOU WILL LOOK MYSTERIOUS AND COOL LA LA. YES, MAYBE A BIT OBNOXIOUS, BUT THAT IS PART OF BEING A MUSICIAN.
