• Spent Wednesday evening with eBay in the basement of Jean’s (No cookie, don’t even ASK) rifling through racks and home goods curated by none other than Emilia Petrarca, Jalil Johnson, Talia and more. It’s sort of thrilling to see a ‘90s e-comm website become self-aware. I hope someone writes a book about it from the inside.

  

• Your last chance to grab tickets to ReCon this weekend. I’ll be there!! Tell me if you will!

• The Cut is hosting a Personals Spring Mixer. I like seeing magazines develop these mingling, front-facing personas and shaking off the old-guard frigid editorship the world turned against. I won’t be attending because it’s $75 and I just had to spend $1,500 on my ticket to Italy but I guarantee this will be fun if not really stressful to pick out an outfit for.

• Ozma is popping up on Wythe through April 6. Kind of just c*nty California basics—grown up Brandy vibe. This duo speaking to the Brandy in me.

• My favorite band ever will be playing MoMA PS1 on 4/24. Opener is No Bra and I will be taking such directives seriously.

• People keep trying to get phone chains right and missing the boat, but this new brand from LA is about as close as I’ve seen.

• Kevin Sabasky at IRL NYC through April 18.
