Vanity Fair goes to Brooklyn

Splice Today is not responsible if your computer cracks open due to this farce of a blog post.

Ten-foot pole:

Perhaps my tweed J. Crew jacket and Tory Burch ballet flats weren’t the best wardrobe choice for that day, but I overcame the fact that I was a total Williamsburg misfit and hoped my foreigner status wouldn’t be glaringly obvious to the natives. (It was.)  After narrowly escaping death by skateboard on the Bedford subway platform, I made my way to a rickety building in what felt to me like Brooklyn’s outer banks.  (It wasn’t.)  A sign instructed people heading to Lafrance’s performance to go up to the second floor, where I was warmly greeted, asked to surrender my coat and bag, and told to wash my hands.

Discussion
  • What I liked about this post was the detail on the VF site of Christopher Hitchens, more and more the celebrity, getting waterboarded from last year.

  • I think Kate Ahlborn is Graydon Carter in drag. I loved how this fucked up woman is universally hated in the comments following her blog. It restores my faith in humanity.
