Oh heavens no! Absolutely not!

Robert Moses, HUAC, and "'agitator[s]' of the kind familiar among 'artistic and so-called liberal groups.'" Sent to me by my dad from a book he's reading. Such a nice man.

You're all going to make your little jokes, but this is Long Island Bullshit, not New York City Bullshit

Has any Marvel director / Feige tried to justify this by going "we're just working Marvel Method!" yet

if your game is TOO open-world then i'm never going to finish it. i'm going to hover over whatever point of no return message you've added to your endgame quest and eventually it's going to start to feel like i'm doing chores and i will give up

dear @thecity.nyc DO NOT WRITE A STORY ABOUT THE EL DORADO BUMPER CARS WITHOUT LEADING WITH "IT IS NOT CLOSING" fucking jump scare Thursday.

do you think the entourage boys are at the knicks game

The actual mission of CBs is to advise and guide, constructively. If CB members abandon that mission in a particular situation, it’s important for things to move forward and to dismiss non-constructive feedback. Letting CBs decide to block things is a decision by City Hall to block things.

Decisions made by people too old to live with the consequences. Community Boards are truly an FYIGM approach to local grievance/governance.

Community boards are advisory only, so let them advise DOT on granular issues like where loading zones should go. That they should get an up or down vote on projects affecting countless bus riders, cyclists, and pedestrians is ridiculous, needlessly pitting neighbor against neighbor.

It's great that CB 7 voted in favor of the 72nd St redesign, but look at this room. The idea that transportation issues in a city that's home to millions of people should be decided by a relative handful of people who can show up to a meeting on a Tuesday night is absurd. We gotta change this.

FWIW the notion that POC NYers don't support livable streets has always been ridiculous to me. It just never matched my lived experience growing up in Brooklyn. As advocates we need to do a better job bringing the message to communities in ways that naturally resonate-- bc the ideas are popular!

You can put black faces on covers and shirts all day, every day. I don't care. Who are your employees? This is why the DC boycott didn't sit right. Because DC reps had already given the "We ****ed up and can do better" speech. They were already hiring people. Y'all need more black editors though.

CYCLE OF HATE and then the pic is this

AVERAGE WHITE MLB PLAYER: has 18 latino teammates he doesn’t speak to, believes the 2020 election was stolen and is in a group text with morgan wallen AVERAGE WHITE NBA PLAYER: wokest dude you’ve ever met, has gotten into several fistfights over a teammate being called a slur, knows every nas lyric

“Curtis Sliwa sitting shiva for the Times Square Red Lobster” is hysterical on several levels, no one doing it like him

It's "Say hi to a random college graduate wearing a cap and gown on the street or subway" season in New York City and I love it.

Reams of data show that this argument is baseless

Bookmark this for the next "Firefighters oppose bike lanes" story. Individual firefighters or fire houses might oppose them, but the FDNY? Typically the department is all in.

Here’s an idea for Zohran Mamdani to create more jobs in NYC: he could ask Julie Menin and City Council to relegalize the construction of new hotels, which Bill de Blasio banned citywide as a parting gift to the hotel workers union on his way out of office in 2021 www.nytimes.com/2026/06/02/n...

Happy Pride month to the whole LGBTQNJ+ rainbow!

…but what do the Baileys think?

My hottest Eighties take is that HE-MAN hasn't survived because it's sword-and-sorcery, it's survived because it's actually about two bad neighbors who have a building on their shared property line.

my current tv hot takes (that could change as shows evolve) margot's got money problems is a conservative show pretending to be progressive for all mankind is a progressive show pretending to be conservative widow's bay is the only show that understands the current state of the us

wait a minute….blart doesn’t rhyme with cop

“That’s a lot of stickers. I bet they are a shitty driver.” Always.

a good reminder that Bernie Sanders kinda sucks

The World Cup is about celebrating exotic host nation cultures

I have illegally and dangerously walked from MetLife to a hotel and I can also add a third descriptor to doing so: it completely sucks. That whole complex is as cursed as could possibly be

'Together, roads and parking represent approximately 17,000 acres (out of 53,620!) of impervious car infrastructure already in place, already shedding tire particles, brake dust, oil, and heavy metals into the drainage system w/ every rainfall.' the problem is, and has always been, cars not homes

Big fan of this guy who makes TikToks complaining about the Madison Ave Bus Lanes that show the whole thing basically working fine.

I think you'll find that I'm very well aware of the history of German and Italian immigration to South America.

what to get the man who has everything but his kids’ current addresses and phone numbers

Bass (center-NIMBY) is puffing up Pratt (right-NIMBY) as a way to lock Raman (left-YIMBY) out of the race, meanwhile Huang (left-NIMBY) is acting as a spoiler to divide the left vote. 3/4 candidates functionally collaborating to shut out the only one who would do something about LA's housing crisis.

And Huang is proud of it

Look at the language used by the manufacturer to describe this thing: "Built to Match The Freeway." "...like a wolf in a tailored suit, poised to strike." "Built to Rule the Streets." "...explosive power..." This is how Dodge describes its vehicles, too. Sociopathic.

This wasn’t sarcasm

The spending gap is a choice. The bottom teams in salary choose to pocket the revenue from their fellow franchises as PROFIT instead of competing. The bad teams like the Angels and Mets are just terribly run. Forcing them to spend less isn't going to help them. It will only create a veneer.

Marlins, Nationals, and Diamondbacks have ineffective management and/or chosen not compete is not because there is no salary cap. Those are all top-10 metropolitan areas by population. Cleveland wins every year as the #35 metro area. Milwaukee #41 Tampa #17 isn't quite as far down, but come on. 2/

MLB has convinced fans for decades that spending imbalance leads to results imbalance even though other sports prove that skill imbalance between teams is what leads to results imbalance. Baseball has more competitive balance (in reality) than other sports. The fact that the Angels, White Sox, 1/

When I went to Wembley to see Taylor Swift, I was overjoyed by how easy it was to take transit to a world class football stadium. After a sold out show, we were back in central London in around 40 minutes with a tap of an Oyster card. Meanwhile... ...the Meadowlands.

The whole circle of “historic preservation” in NYC is filled with people you don’t want to associate with. Forget the mission (they’re not doing it in good faith anyway) just accept these people suck and want people to live shit lives if they’re not rich

Praising Jim Dolan is also an impeachable offense
