There's this little tie shop in Budapest that sells hand-made ties in all sorts of silk patterns. It's a true old world experience. Once you enter, you’re shown ties buried away in white boxes perched on wooden shelves. It's a kind of product and experience you can’t find so much anymore.

If you’re from brooklyn or new york city or just moved here, i know, this is cliche. But i! Don’t! Care! The truffle popcorn is addicting, even if I'm farting for the rest of the movie, it’s worth it. Plus they have cute little trailers to gab about with your date or friend, but i also go alone because nobody tried to have small talk with you at the movies and you can just disassociate peacefully in blissful high-power air conditioning on a hot nyc summer day. They have guest curators on a monthly basis and do fun screenings of old flicks. Highly recommend it. Nitehawk > Alamo.

let me break it down…
Anthology 10 dollars a lot of lesser known avant garde films mixed in with art/foreign films. most things are also projected on film. really good place if your looking for something different.
Moma is like 10 dollars too but if you’re a student you can get a free entry ticket which allows for a free movie ticket you just have to ask the desk. Moma has alot of stuff on film also and is always putting up classics And retrospectives on filmmakers
Momi is also 10 and has a ton of cool 35mm more mainstream films always playing such as kubrick or Micheal mann.museum’s section is also cute especially if you like the muppets.
Lincon center is a good place to go see indies/foreign movies that have come out recently also around 10 dollars also do some retrospectives remasters and 35mm screenings
Spectacle is a community run Brooklyn theater that is one room and plays obscure cinema very fun place to go out to with friends and see something different.
Roxy has some good 35mm screenings good date place to take someone.very comfy inside this fancy hotel downside is little more expensive but overall one of the better theater experiences in New York. Warning hipster central however 😭

Again, I'm using this category as an umbrella so I can list my favorite movies that I think by watching will make everyone's life better or at least distract you from whatever bullshit is going on in your own life for a moment, and put a smile on your face. Maybe you'll even relate to what the characters in the films are going through and you'll feel a little bit less alone and it will change your life forever. These are my favorite movies that I watch over and over again: An Unmarried Woman, Swingers, Annie Hall, Broken English, Girlfriends. Last Days of Disco, and Hannah and Her Sisters. And one of my favorite theaters to watch movies in in New York City is Metrograph. A sanctuary. A safe haven. The programming is extraordinary. And they have a wonderful restaurant upstairs called The Commissary. Run don't walk.

I grew up with a lot of people who went on to become Juggalos or Juggelettes. I’m not a fan of ICP’s music as much as I'm a fan of the whole culture of its fandom. It’s rare these days that there is a true, regionally-specific subculture. Actually, I didn’t realize it was so insular until I moved out of the midwest. The farther I got from home, the more time I'd spend at parties explaining the gathering and why ICP fans paint their faces. Oh, and what Faygo is.

It's people you look up to, or are inspired by, who can be a litmus test for good taste. Most importantly, there’s my girlfriend, Madi. Everything she does is cool, and she doesn’t have a problem telling me if what I'm doing isn't (which is super helpful). Otherwise, Keanu Reeves, Corrine Day, Paul Newman and Mr. Armani are perennial muses.

I’ve always had a soft spot for demonology and the occult but it wasn’t until college, when I took a class with an extremely passionate Italian professor, that I read the Divine Comedy in depth. It’s incredible how this archaic text has so many parallels and parables that relate to modern life. There's a lot of lessons behind the allegories.
