Ugh. It’s hottt.

And, yeah, this post is a bit late. But let’s be serious. Stay home. It’s damn fucking gross out there.

But after you cool down, rest, hydrate, watch the entire first season of Game of Thrones (so awesome), and hang with your hobo friends camping out on your floor to mooch the A/C, venture out this weekend. Cuz the hydrants are a-flowin’ through Brooklyn and our borough is poppin’ hard!
