Wrap: Causal Encountersz came to NY and Sophia Kiam read about fat cows and Riley Mac read about wolf dogs; Freakquencies, if bottled, would have notes of sweat, poppers, and Acqua Di Gio; Heron Preston djed what was probably the hottest laundromat I’ve ever stepped into; the entire downtown literati touched grass in Ridgewood; Veronica belted ‘Did you know there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd’ at Lana night; lots of old men bared it all at the Mermaid Parade this weekend, Park Slope families should refrain from participating — not your turf; and a perfect pride week ahead.
