Tweets of the Week: De Blasio’s next move?
Plus, welcome to Taintstuy!
Every week we at Brooklyn Magazine read the entire internet in order to curate (some of) our favorite tweets from the previous seven days. These are locally sourced, organically grown, free range nuggets of wisdom and jest for the week ending July 22.
“It’s bad bitch o’clock,” we tell ourselves as we enter a sweltering weekend. Enjoy these tweets from the past week, hand-selected by our Minions, fresh from the orthodontist. If you need us, we’ll be home in Taintstuy, cooling down from our de Blasio-led spin class.
This is not a “Rehearsal”: The sunflowers are out, which means we’re halfway to fall. Get to the grill before it’s too late.
Now that he's leaving electoral politics, it's time for Bill de Blasio to embrace his true calling: A spin instructor at the Park Slope Y.

After mass community pushback against the demolition of the historic Dangler building a.k.a 441 Willoughby and while we are awaiting results from the LPC hearing, yesterday the developer started demolishing the building at a rapid pace. We need community and press here NOW. pic.twitter.com/hmUrxQ3MmB

Kosciusko Pool, in heart of Bed-Stuy closed at 7, despite pledges the @NYCParks would keep it opened till 8 pm due to the heat wave. Parks worker tells me the police officers assigned to cover the pool left at 7 so they had to close. pic.twitter.com/Oj0yB9iV2I
