Brooklyn Tweets of the Week: Pack your Bushwick Birkin and grab your pet peacock
A roundup of (some of) our favorite locally sourced tweets for the week ending June 25
There may have been a primary election this week, but one enterprising New Yorker discovered the true purpose of ranked choice voting.
It’s Friday, which means it’s time to round up some of our favorite tweets of the week. Here we have a plea for parking, a drawbridge denial, fighting words on Facebook … and a very local lorem ipsum generator. Feel free to tag us if you see a tweet to include next week.
In the meantime, we hope you find all the parking you need this weekend. (And if you’re looking for something to do, we’ve got you covered there, too.)
