NYC Taco Bell 50K
Sat, Oct 3 at 8am · New York
Organizing an unofficial Taco Bell 50K because I got fomo from the official race in Denver. Join if you’re also insane.
Note: each entrant will receive their own bib and maybe even a finisher item if there’s enough RSVP!
Or if you want to participate but not do the challenge directly, I may need a volunteer or two:-)
Same rules apply: 31 miles, 10 taco bell locations.
-11HR cut off (7PM EST)
-Eat a menu item from at least 9 of the 10 Taco Bell stops. The food must be consumed on site before proceeding to the next
-By the 4th stop, entrants must have consumed at least one (1) Chalupa Supreme or one Crunchwrap Supreme (dietary restrictions will be allowed within reason)
-By the 8th stop, entrants must have consumed at least one (1) Burrito Supreme or one Nacho Bell Grande (dietary restrictions will be allowed within reason)
-NYC specific rule: sides/sweets limited to cheesy potatoes, chips, apple empanada and large nacho fries can be counted as “food” once per item
-Drinks do not count as food
-Entrants must keep all receipts and wrappers for confirmation of stupidity at the end of the run
-If you intend to participate, RSVP your statement of intent. ONCE YOU RSVP, YOU ARE IN.
-No on-course Pepto, Alka Seltzer, Pepcid A/C, Mylanta will be allowed
-NYC specific rule: given that bathrooms are hard to find, slightly off course bathrooms are permitted. But you must rejoin the course from the same point you left
-Additional "rules" may be added, amended, or changed to promote the intent of this run, which is to do something completely stupid.
The Great Brooklyn Beer Mile
Next Sat at 12pm · Brooklyn
What if we got 150 New Yorkers to chug a beer and run a lap. four times. and called it a race?
We did not invent it. We are simply gathering the willing. This is our variation of the beer mile, which means team formats too, for those who'd rather split the beers with a couple friends (normal-sized stomachs welcome).
No, it will not be on a track. that would be boring.
Come if you're a runner. come if you're a chugger. come if you're neither and simply enjoy watching chaos unfold in a park.
you don't have to race to be part of it. come heckle, come cheer, come for the spectacle. especially come if you're:
* a former high school track star with something to prove
* someone who "isn't really a runner"
* great at chugging, tragic at running
* great at running, tragic at chugging
* "training for a marathon" and calling this cross-training
* just here for the bit
Run it solo or grab a team and split the laps and beers between you… the rules are pending, you’ll be the first to know.
A very serious podium for the 1st place team (maybe even some serious cash…). an even more serious award for dead last.
We’re working our hardest to have a photo and video team capturing the whole spectacle so it can be digitally remembered. and sorting out an afterparty to follow.
Hit going + turn on notifications so you don't miss the drop. then invite the two friends you know would actually do this.
More soon — just get it on the calendar
Details as of now:
Saturday, Sept 12 · noon · Bushwick Inlet Park
Beer provided (N/A)
Bring a lawn chair, a cowbell, a sign for your favorite stranger, snacks, a friend who'll regret it… whatever your heart desires.

The Last Bohemians Film Screening
Next Mon at 6pm · New York
The Last Bohemians is a short documentary series about eight older artists who live in NYC’s historic Chelsea Hotel. Since its opening in 1883, just about everything has been mythologized about the hotel: the rock stars, drugs, deaths and tales of ghosts. However, what many people don’t know or talk about are the residents that still live in the hotel today, some of whom have been there for over 45 years. This series celebrates eight of them through their work and incredible creative lives, capturing a vanishing era of the city.
Directed, edited and produced by artist Timothy Goodman, the film was selected at the Newport Beach Film Festival, and won Best Docuseries at the Big Apple Film Festival.
Q&A with renowned writer and Design Matters host Debbie Millman will follow the screening, joined by some of the Chelsea residents. The program will open with "Mon Taxi," a short film directed by Meriem Sakrouhi and an official selection of the 2026 Tribeca Festival.

We'll hear remarks from our guest speaker, then break into small groups to dig into the questions together before coming back for a full-room discussion.

The Great Brooklyn Beer Mile
Next Sat at 12pm · Brooklyn
What if we got 150 New Yorkers to chug a beer and run a lap. four times. and called it a race?
We did not invent it. We are simply gathering the willing. This is our variation of the beer mile, which means team formats too, for those who'd rather split the beers with a couple friends (normal-sized stomachs welcome).
No, it will not be on a track. that would be boring.
Come if you're a runner. come if you're a chugger. come if you're neither and simply enjoy watching chaos unfold in a park.
you don't have to race to be part of it. come heckle, come cheer, come for the spectacle. especially come if you're:
* a former high school track star with something to prove
* someone who "isn't really a runner"
* great at chugging, tragic at running
* great at running, tragic at chugging
* "training for a marathon" and calling this cross-training
* just here for the bit
Run it solo or grab a team and split the laps and beers between you… the rules are pending, you’ll be the first to know.
A very serious podium for the 1st place team (maybe even some serious cash…). an even more serious award for dead last.
We’re working our hardest to have a photo and video team capturing the whole spectacle so it can be digitally remembered. and sorting out an afterparty to follow.
Hit going + turn on notifications so you don't miss the drop. then invite the two friends you know would actually do this.
More soon — just get it on the calendar
Details as of now:
Saturday, Sept 12 · noon · Bushwick Inlet Park
Beer provided (N/A)
Bring a lawn chair, a cowbell, a sign for your favorite stranger, snacks, a friend who'll regret it… whatever your heart desires.

Summer Send Off: Labor Day Hike!
Today at 7:30am · Kerhonkson
Come climb, connect and reflect with us in Lake Minnewaska with proceeds from this adventure going towards Renaissance Church’s “In Harlem as It Is in Heaven” building campaign.
The hike will be a breathtaking 8-mile moderate hike featuring forest trails, lake views, rock formations, overlooks, and some light rock scrambling. The elevation gain will be ~1,167 feet, so come ready to move, encourage one another, and enjoy a FULL day outside. Along the trail, we’ll make time to slow down, take in the view, and be present. At the summit, we’ll pause for an optional moment of reflection, journaling, or prayer.
What’s included:
Expert guides
Transportation - private charter passenger van
Refreshments
GOOD VIBES!
The Thomases are a fun-loving couple who find adventure in every corner of life. Hosting an end-of-summer hike is the icing on the cake for them and for anyone who joins! Harlem has been home to the Thomases for over 10 years, where they attend Renaissance Church together. In Fall 2024, Renaissance launched a building fund to secure a permanent home for the church, challenging members to raise funds creatively. For the Thomases, the answer was easy: do what they love most: get outside, connect with others, and support their community. Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or a first-timer, this hike will be a vibe. We’d love for you to join us on this journey and support a great cause (bonus points if you bring a friend!).
RSVP DEADLINE: September 3. This is a non-refundable trip, hike happens rain or shine.

Manifestoff IV
Thu, Oct 1 at 6:30pm · New York
Eight copywriters. One kitchen. Zero actual cooking.
MANIFESTOFF IV is upon us and serving up another night of unnecessary competition, questionable judgment and some of the finest manifesto writing ever inspired by incredibly stupid briefs.
Watch as 8 contestants are handed a fresh brief and asked to COOK like it’s their first day on the job as a chef at Benihana. They’ll chop, reduce, season and plate their words in pursuit of the most coveted prize in competitive copywriting.
Will they serve? Will they get chopped? Will they be unc? Will someone use the phrase “in a world where” and be asked to leave immediately?
Come hungry. Come thirsty. Come ready to make an unreasonable amount of noise for people typing on laptops.
There will be FOOD.
There will be BEER.
There will be DRAMA.
Dress code: somewhere between Guy Fieri and a restaurant where the Caesar salad costs $34.

Rockaway Film Festival
Past Wed to Tomorrow · Queens
Rockaway Film Festival presents cinema and other arts at the coastal edge of New York City, joining artists and audiences for unique collective experiences.
Rockaway Film Festival started in 2018 as a four-day experiment to bring cinema back to Rockaway, where there hadn’t been a movie theater in over thirty years. Since then, we’ve grown into a year-round organization offering screenings, live music, performances, and other opportunities for people to gather.
Defined by its location between the Atlantic Ocean and Jamaica Bay, the Rockaway Peninsula is exceptional as both a barrier island with beaches and salt-water marshes — and also a city neighborhood. Our programs are informed by this distinctive landscape and our tickets are always $10 or free to make sure they’re accessible for everyone.courtside 🎾

Marigold: Pre-launch Reading
Mon, Sep 21 at 7pm · New York
A day before the pub date of “Women in Marigold,” a debut poetry book by Mansi Dahal, join us for an intimate poetry reading at KGB Bar’s Red Room—an 1834 walkup that once served as a socialist club in the East Village. With a backdrop of peeling red, we have an incredible line up of poets. Ry will be moderating this event and Mansi Dahal will be reading with the poets Ashna Ali, Emily Skillings and Natasha Rao. The door will open at 7:00 with the reading starting closer to 7:15! See you all there.
Note: It’s two flights up the street, not one! There’s another reading happening downstairs.
You can preorder the book here: https://www.stillhousepress.org/stillhouse-store/womeninmarigold
Wilting coriander, etched steel plates, and long, dark hair spread on a beauty parlor floor—Women in Marigold is intimacy over a kitchen sink and sheer evidence of presence. At its center is the ache of dislocation and the desire for rootedness, captured in a single, impossible wish: “Imagine being able to live / in one place at one time.” Interrogating what we inherit, Women in Marigold moves from Kathmandu to New York City, from Saeeda Bai to Sylvia Plath, confronting the tension between life as a daughter in Nepal and a future as an artist in America. The book has received advance praise from Diane Seuss, Bhanu Kapil, Dorothea Lasky, and Timothy Donnelly.

Art Picnic in the Park
Tomorrow at 4pm · Brooklyn
Time to get outside and make something
Let's enjoy summer the right way: outside, with art supplies, good people, and no agenda.
This is your excuse to ditch your screens, slow down, and find time to be creative. This is not about being good at art. This is about finding time to make something, enjoying nature, and community. Bring a friend or make a new one!
We Bring:
🌳 A picnic setup in the park
Blankets, fresh air, a cute playlist (if you don’t like the music, blame it on Spotify)
🎨 Communal Art supplies
Everything you need to get started - paper, pencils, pastels, watercolors, and more
You Bring:
✨Yourself
All levels are welcome, from beginners to professionals
☀️ Weather Gear
Please bring sunscreen, coats, or whatever else Mother Nature is demanding of us
🥤 Snacks + drinks
Bring anything you want to nibble on or sip
🖼️ Your own project if you have one
If you’re working on something, please bring it! This beats making something alone in a dark room
The Logistics
How to Find Us
Don’t want to walk up sheepishly to the wrong picnic blanket? Before the event, we'll send all attendees a message with our exact location within the park. Look for the blankets, the art supplies, and the people who look very happy to be outside.
Weather
This is an outdoor event, so we're at the mercy of the NYC sky. If the weather is looking rough, we'll make a call by the night before and notify all attendees.Bird Watching at Green-Wood
