Tweets of the week: Bushwick DJs deserve love too
Plus, buying 'womanchego' cheese in Park Slope, the hipsters have come for pickleball and the last weird place in Brooklyn
Every week we at Brooklyn Magazine read the entire internet in order to curate (some of) our favorite tweets from the previous seven days. These are locally sourced, organically grown, free range nuggets of wisdom and jest for the week ending August 12.

New York. We know. It’s hot. We get it.
But please don’t try to build a rooftop swimming pool without first getting permits and hiring professionals to do the job properly. This 480 sqft pool we just found in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, wasn’t built to Code and had to be removed. pic.twitter.com/ouuCScPVcO

The surf ave Nathan’s hot dogs in Coney Island has the most consistently fucked vibes of any place in New York that isn’t port authority. I’m convinced it’s built on a native holy site or something
