Seems like this week's theme is choreography.
There's a careful dance you have to do to get through this entire weekend: Corgi pawrades on Saint-Laurent, David Lynch-inspired smut at Cinéma L’Amour, matcha-powered pilates in a parking lot, and one-sided air hockey competitions for reasons no one’s explained.
You can also party in the woods with Patrick Watson, a rooftop day party with onigiri and cocktails, $8-or-less street food, and eating enough tacos to win a trophy.
Meanwhile, the news cycle’s doing its own kind of choreography: posthumous roadwork promises, cultural revival proposals, permanent pedestrian zones, housing projects, light canopies—all magically surfacing right on cue for election season.
Funny how motivation kicks in when there’s a vote on the line—you can watch a recent debate between candidates here, by the way.
