Brooklyn tweets of the week: Coney Island, DMX and wacky millennial parents
Nature is healing and we've got the tweets to back it up
No you’re not crazy: The timeline is brightening. (OK, you might be crazy, but the timeline is still brightening.)
Brooklyn is hardly one to let a soul-crushing pandemic stop it from sharing its hopes, dreams and memes—especially when the weather is flirting with 70 degrees and vaccines abound.
This week we’re tying something new and bringing you a roundup of the best locally-sourced tweets of the week. From a beautiful Williamsburg nightscape to a Quibi dream deferred (RIP)—from a Prospect Park Palm Warbler to a swoon-worthy New Yorker cover—these are the tweets that caught our eye. What caught yours? Tag us on Twitter @brooklynmag and don’t forget to follow us. What could possibly go wrong?

My partner found a little silver ring with a heart on the sidewalk in Bay Ridge and i put it on. It fits perfectly. Also, i’m not worrying about what’s in the vaccine
