Ron Darling: "they take their baseball seriously down there in Toms River"

If you thought the worst thing about watching the Mets was the pitching staff's devotion to walking guys, you're wrong, because now the games come with recruitment ads for ICE nygroove.nyc/mets-fans-ba...

These ads basically literally replaced the KIPP ads that were running 2-3x per broadcast MAKE OF THAT WHAT YOU WILL

Zohran is pressuring FIFA to drop dynamic pricing for the World Cup, but the practice has already invaded basically every aspect of life as a consumer nygroove.nyc/we-live-in-d...

Mets fans have a new woe to deal with as the season sputters down, and it has nothing to do with pitching: ICE recruitment ads all over the broadcasts now. I wrote about it for @nygroove.nyc today nygroove.nyc/mets-fans-ba...

NEW @nygroove.nyc ISSUE OUT NOW nygroove.nyc/email/28fd5b...

"Get lost forever" was the rallying cry we really needed this year

ok but has anyone considered this is just another classic Jimmy Kimmel prank

Of fucking COURSE

well now i'm seeking out a jimmy kimmel clip for the first time

i still listen frequently but i have always joked that this show has the vibe of an Olsen's Books in Dupont Circle circa 2004 and well

Saw this while walking my dog today. Outrageous Bush Era energy coming off of this image. Three Doors Down is stuck in my head all of a sudden. New Jeff Dunham special is likely imminent within the year. The U.S. is for sure about to destabilize a country that the president can’t identify on a map.

The number of people who rode NYC’s subway on Monday is greater than the population of any other city in America

I love how careless and sloppy you can be with water. Fill that glass up as fast as you want. Get it all over the place. Doesn't even matter. Soda drinkers wish they had even a fraction of this power.

i think it's funny that you can pay this much for a house and then there's still dog shit on your sidewalk and plastic bags in your trees every day www.wsj.com/real-estate/...

just wondering if 20+ years of having a right wing propaganda tv network that airs lies and anger and lies and bad faith talking heads 24 hours a day is going to have any negative effects sometime soon

@mets.com please win this game for @davecolon.bsky.social, who was hit by a car on his way to the Mets game fourteen years ago

ah man the @mets.com commitment to having the most embarrassing end of the season possible knows no bounds

Local transit reporter looks stylish in a New York Groove shirt as he rides the train to work with transit-loving Mets pitcher Sean Manaea for @nyc.streetsblog.org nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/09/12/m...

summer lives in your heart forever, but our Summer in the City merch sale ends tomorrow

Get caught up on the mayor's race, which for now is a four-man scramble being dominated by a nerd who went to Bronx Science nygroove.nyc/nyc-mayors-r...

as a country, we seemed to have forgotten the word "troll." I know the trolls trolled themselves into power but the essence of a comment section troll is the exactly why we created this word

Important explainer bc I also noticed this hat was everywhere

"Free and vaguely bisexual" and we got two of them!

many people are saying! nygroove.nyc/cyclones-hat...

We didn't have a song of the summer because the vibes in America were bad but at least New York had a hat of the summer nygroove.nyc/cyclones-hat...

It's the 10th anniversary of Sleeping With Other People, an overlooked entry in the NYC romcom canon, and I for one demand that it stop being overlooked nygroove.nyc/happy-10th-b...

if you took the summer off from rabidly following the mayoral race, congrats on being mentally healthier than most of us, and also, @davecolon.bsky.social is here this week with everything you need to know about the current state of play as we barrel toward November 4: nygroove.nyc/nyc-mayors-r...

A jumbo-sized @nygroove.nyc issue this week: 1) a crash course in the mayor's race now that it's crunch time 2) an appreciation of the vaguely bisexual 'hat of the summer and 3) @davecolon.bsky.social's tribute to his favorite romcom line ever on its 10th anniversary nygroove.nyc/email/7714f7...

it's the only day left in america when i listen to a ryan adams song

😶

the links are bad today

Three people were critically wounded in a shooting at a suburban Denver high school, authorities say.

all i wanted to do today was pour a steaming cup of tea, curl up with the cat and read every single one of @defector.com's anniversary posts

this is just my personal pet peeve but it sucks to feel bad all the time and i am not into it

The Post still using 'hipsters' to talk about Williamsburg feels so quaint, if entirely outdated nypost.com/2025/09/09/u...

should you trust millions of square feet of Coney Island's amusement district to a developer whose brilliant business moves over the past two decades include a wage-thieving Wahlburger's and being a year too late to the Crab du Jour boom? Today is your last chance to speak up about it!

oh no he's tweeting like @rickpaulas.bsky.social now

Pointing to the Zyrtec behind glass like it’s a fine Tiffany bracelet. “That one,” I say to the Target clerk. “Excellent choice sir,” he says while scrolling TikTok on this phone.

lmao the future sucks

l m a oooooo www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

i used to work with this kid on the boardwalk in seaside heights, funny what life does to ya

happy rilo kiley to apparently a very large swath of elder millennials in new york city

When it’s February 1st:

Edwin Diaz toying with his food

i will be holding a press conference later today to announce that everything is normal and i'm fine
