Banksy came to Woodside yesterday, and so did all the cool kids.  People taking pictures with themselves and the piece.  Mulling around, confusing a large amount of the locals.  One kid rode by on a bike shouting “Its a FAKE!”  I enjoyed the piece, and the general antics surrounding Banksy’s NYC Residency. For some reason I kept making a connection between the piece, the crowd, and the Police bulletin about the missing autistic teenager Avonte Oquendo from Long Island City.  I’m know its just my brain trying to make a connection, but there was something there that just made me  pause.  Much ado about affluence and apathy.
