Brooklyn Tweets of the Week: Boob art in the zeitgeist and Patti LaBelle on the balcony
A roundup of (some of) our favorite locally sourced tweets for the week ending August 6
Every week we curate hand-crafted artisanal local tweets for your enjoyment and edification. Today’s specials include QAnon for Bushwick girls, an NFT artist mansplaining Ethereum (kill us now), and neighborly duet to High Priestess Patti LaBelle. Read on for more.
In the meantime, if you see something, say something: Be sure to tag us if you see anything that should be noted next week, and carry 👇 this👇 iconic Williamsburg pup’s energy into the weekend!

One of the balconies near me is flying three flags: the Brazilian flag, the Tibetan flag, and a stars-and-stripes Punisher logo.
