The List

Hump This

Eat: Loteria Grill
6627 Hollywood Blvd, Hollywood; 323.456.2500

The Farmer's Market favorite launches its first sit-down location: a casual, no-frills spot serving classics like mole poblano w/chicken and chipotle shredded beef w/guac. Alcohol will be served, unlike at the original, where there was fear that you'd casually take a leek.

Wear: Tera Patrick Tees

Though co-designed by a woman you've likely seen naked, these tees are appropriate for everyday wear, with graphics including Patrick in a Wonder Woman costume, dressed as a motorcycle mama, and in triplicate, pointing a gun over the line "Tera Patrick Makes My Day" (for when your "I'm Addicted to Masturbating" tee's in the wash).

Gorge: Beefsteak Night
July 13 at Bacaro: 2308 S. Union Ave, Downtown

For a scant $25, you get all-you-can-eat/drink steak, beer, and vino at this downtown wine bar. Though it's a bit more than a week away, seats won't last, especially when they start splintering under the asses of all-you-can-eat beefsteakers.

Party: Creme De La Creme
Saturday at the Standard: 550 S Flower St, Downtown

Continue your long-weekend revelry at this free rooftop pool party, with $40 champagne bottles, free Jell-o shots, 4 DJs, and a live performance from hip-hop crew Pacific Division, who use the slogan "Fashionable.Artistic.Trendsetters.= F.A.T." because nobody's buying "big boned".

Chillax: Tea Forte Brewing Pitcher

Made from hand-blown, heat-resistant glass, this double-decker contraption makes 24oz of chilled ice tea without refrigeration: just steep in the top pitcher, then pour into the larger ice pitcher -- you'll think you're seeing double, even though you're only wilding on English Breakfast.

Join: Thrillist Las Vegas

If what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, then how the hell are you supposed to find out about its dress-down, rock-n-roll strip club or resident super-pious hooker? You won't, you poor bastard.
