Gemini & Scorpio

Congrats to dearest @dahvana on having her fierce retelling of Beowulf finally out in the world! It upends notions of monsters and heroes, mothers and warriors, and is the fiery & feminist read you need this summer. #themerewife

Shenanigans

Been overdue for this...new hallway lights being installed at #gsloft (at Gemini & Scorpio Loft)

Yesterday's confusing #Gowanus art find: a @banksy rat on canvas with someone else's signature. Anyone know context? (No, his canvas prints from the NYC one-day street booth pop-up weren't faux-signed, and that rat, while present among those canvas, was faced in the other direction). #banksy #streetart #spraypaintart (at Gowanus, Brooklyn)

Meet the newest resident of #gsloft, this awesome flying monkey made by @mutantland. She's a #gsgoldmine regular and will be back with us at the 4.22 pop-up. (at Gemini & Scorpio Loft)

Meeting the new Nightlife Mayor & hoping things may become better for DIY spaces in this town. (at Secret Project Robot)

Joining us tonight for that crazy cocktail thing we do and wondering what makes a good "challenge" ingredient to bring? Here are some choice picks from last time: homemade syrups in strawberry, lemon tea, lavender and date wine. We'll be going through these tonight as we wait on your surprises. . . . . #gsloft #speakeasy #brooklyn #gowanus #homebar #craftcocktails #nycnightlife #brooklynnightlife #nycspeakeasy #brooklynspeakeasy #secretbar #libations #mixology #bartender #bartending #cocktail #cocktails #cocktailbar #liquor #fancycocktails #specialtycocktails #imbibe #imbibegram #instacocktails #itsfiveoclocksomewhere #5oclocksomewhere #handcraftedcocktails #thirstynyc #nyccocktails #nycdrinks (at Gemini & Scorpio Loft)

A staggering confluence of factors had to occur to have these three fabulous humans in one room. We have so many friends in common, but they hadn't all met each other till last night. I 💖 my tiny piece of magical NYC real estate. (Jason Webley: musician and storyteller; @lauriepenny: righteous journalist and truth teller; @stoya: pornographer and writer) (at Gemini & Scorpio Loft)

Serving you #1920s realness at #gsswinghouse tonight. Come visit. (at Gemini & Scorpio Loft)

Yup, that's the category we were aiming to win ("Funnest Picnic Game"). 💖 that the trophy is so clearly @cadillacjac's handiwork, with the gilded rat & octopus. And yes, of course I had to promptly shoot it to the tree... Thank you @shadow_traffic for a fun winter picnic day!

Shenanigans afoot, courtesy of @shadow_traffic's reprisal of 2014 Competitive Winter Picnicking. If you want to catch the action, we're by the Picnic House till about 6. (at Prospect Park)

Saying goodbye to another piece of NYC magic... (at Big Sky Works)

I 💖 that this event just brought together three badass women with a roomful of smart, respectful strangers to discuss a positive, sexy book. Bravo, everyone, and THANK YOU for supporting #houseofscorpio (at Gemini & Scorpio Loft)

Doing the last of my homework at brunch before 6pm Sex Lit erotic book club w/author @joannaangel and @stoya moderating. #houseofscorpio (at Gemini & Scorpio Loft)
