Get caught up on this week's issue of The Groove here: using anime to teach socialism, tips for the new broke, FOMO Calendar picks and more! nygroove.nyc/email/354cb5...

I would like to add an entry here I like to call "bodega dinner": make box mac & cheese as directed (Kraft or Annie's, or whatever). Slice an avocado, add it to your mac & cheese. Get a can of those La Morena pickled jalapeños. Put a ton of those on top. Eat, and enjoy the $$ you saved!

Everywhere I go people ask about me about this so here finally it is

the people have been clamoring for @davecolon.bsky.social's signature linguine recipe, and we finally..... delivered 😏😏 😏https://nygroove.nyc/how-to-stop-ordering-delivery/

My go to broke meal was buttered noodles with tuna and parm

Millennials pioneered the art of being broke in the early ‘00s by graduating with web design and computer science degrees right as the dot com bubble was bursting. We’re the best-educated generation of paycheck-to-paycheck service workers the world has ever seen.

The reason I became an expert in cooking squid was when I first lived in Ft Greene the local place had it for $1.99 a pound, and I had to clean it.

what does socialism have to do with anime? more than you think, actually, and Brooklyn DSA candidate Eon Huntley wants you to get into it. @bwd.bsky.social is back in The Groove with a dispatch: nygroove.nyc/the-dsas-eon...

Team Groove has extensive experience being broke and eating well, which is more than we can say for a lot of people online these days. Pull up a chair and learn bits of ancient dirtbag wisdom like "deli feast," "idiot quesadilla," and our easiest personal pantry recipes nygroove.nyc/how-to-stop-...

Get caught up on this week's issue of The Groove: stop tying shit to the Brooklyn Bridge; ICE protests take over the city, our next live show and more! nygroove.nyc/email/a375dc...

I have a second solution to the problem here, because I don't want to act like there's just one answer. The city can also make it legal to hit people with bike locks if they are caught doing this nygroove.nyc/brooklyn-bri...

If you tie garbage to the Brooklyn Bridge, you should be pushed off the bridge nygroove.nyc/brooklyn-bri...

mandatory court-ordered read of mccullough's big-ass book about the bridge and the roeblings would also be fine as a lesser sentence but i can also get behind the catapult too

My great-grandfather Kyriacos Fradelos was among the many men who painted that bridge and yes tying garbage to it should be punished by being forced to eat that garbage as an algo-favored YouTube short.

people who do this should be put in stocks at the center of the bridge for twenty four hours.

this piece was a good palate cleanser tbh.

in the midst of our ongoing deep freeze, New Yorkers came out in force this week to show solidarity with Minnesota and say a resounding "fuck ICE" nygroove.nyc/ice-protests...

This week's @nygroove.nyc newsletter is frosty cold, both in New Yorkers thoughts about ICE and in @davecolon.bsky.social's feelings about your symbols of love besmirching a city landmark. Read it, and subscribe! nygroove.nyc/email/a375dc...

there's something appalling happening on our beloved Brooklyn Bridge — an architectural marvel that a lot of people died to create! — and @davecolon.bsky.social has some thoughts on how to put a stop to it nygroove.nyc/brooklyn-bri...

a case study in why (and how) you should start a tenants union ASAP nygroove.nyc/how-to-start...

tenants unions regularly win major victories without ever having to step foot in a courtroom, and starting one up is easier than you think: nygroove.nyc/how-to-start...

having this mayoral administration in office is basically the tenant equivalent of having a friendly NLRB, it's a prime moment to organize nygroove.nyc/how-to-start...

Hank's Saloon, either the best dive in Brooklyn or the worst, lives on in a new documentary nygroove.nyc/hanks-saloon...

Great story by Tim. My karaoke band played there for 5 years...and it was always a bizarre night. Every. Single. Time.

and, after closing in 2018, hank's is just sitting there empty & basically unchanged, like it could be reopened in a matter of hours.

I mean yes but also the point of the train to me is that I can sit down and not. The train is doing the work.

A story I knew I'd write someday: there's a new documentary about Hank's Saloon and I talked to the director about why it mattered, and what it means when the regulars have nowhere else to go, in today's @nygroove.nyc nygroove.nyc/hanks-saloon...

former Hank's regular @timdonnelly.com got the scoop from the film's director, and did a dive on what it means that this stretch of Atlantic is now full of denser housing, yes, but also empty, depressing new development retail spaces nygroove.nyc/hanks-saloon...
