Hi – I have a facial disfigurement since childhood and have struggled with dating as a result. I am looking for a therapist who has experience working with disfigurement/visible difference and can talk to me about the real impacts it has on how people perceive me in dating + some of the practical decision making […]

Crazy how quickly that infrastructure has downgraded. By the time service in the tunnels is implemented, we’re not going to have any service in the actual stations submitted by /u/untamedjohn [link] [comments]

Got a lot of great questions from my last post. Appreciate all of it. Here are more things I tell every customer and most of the time I wish someone told them sooner. Know your shutoff valves before you need them Every emergency call starts the same way. water everywhere and nobody knows where to

Genuine question: when did people decide that playing videos, music, or even phone calls on speaker on the train is normal? I feel like there used to be an unspoken rule: if you’re in a crowded public space, you use headphones. Now it’s just full-volume TikTok, YouTube, music, and speakerphone conversations like the entire train

I went out on this false spring day and to my dismay everyone is looking amazing. What did ya’ll do in February? You didn’t also ride out the snow days with carbs and bed rot? And you’re not still burning off the holidays? Haven’t you hit any of our many bakeries and eateries every cold

My name is Reuven. master plumber, New York City, going on 31 years. Every borough. Pre-war brownstones, high-rises, steam systems older than most of the people reading this. My son Shawn set up a website for me and talked me into doing a newsletter and now apparently Reddit. I’m not really a “posting on the

I live in Manhattan and my girlfriend lives deep in Brooklyn. We have been dating for between 6 months and a year. She wants us to see each other around 5x a week now for things to be serious. This usually involves 2-3 weekdays and the weekend. It takes around 70 minutes from one to

This was not a thing a couple of years ago. And it didn’t matter what kind of car. They used to have like 10 little trees in them I remember when Ubers smelled like all kinds of car fragrances and cherry bombs. Now, they almost uniformly smell horrible. Last week we called a black xl

If you sit on the subway, do you take your pants off before sitting on your furniture at home? Is this common among New Yorkers? This was a concept introduced to me by my ex-gf and I have done it ever since. Now it’s inconceivable to sit on my couch wearing pants I rode the

Not the tourist stuff. The small things that took you years to notice. A weird sound at a certain station, a building that only looks interesting at 3am, a pattern in how people move, something that changed and you’re the only one who remembers. I feel like this city reveals itself slowly and I want

I’m a 27yo F native New Yorker from Queens, and lately I can’t tell if the vibe of the city has actually changed or if it’s just me getting older. But something genuinely feels different. I’m not even talking about being stuck in nostalgia for high school, though; around 2016… those last few years before

I’ve lived in NYC for 10 years and have noticed an uptick in this in the past few – though maybe it’s because my commute has switched to the A line and I wasn’t taking that train before. I’ll regularly see people on both my morning and evening commutes, prob are 80% men but plenty

I have lived in NYC for several years but have fallen into the “be horizontal on the couch” routine. I have lost the “let’s get up and do something!” spark but know I do better when I have ideas thought out ahead of time. 34F if it happens to help to know. Basically I want

How do you guys think Mamdani handled the blizzard this week? submitted by /u/Positive_Career_9393 [link] [comments]

How accurate is this stereotype? (-: This is the opening line of a piece in Harper’s about AI startups in San Francisco. It has nothing to do with NYC. But I thought you good people might have some opinions on that quote. https://harpers.org/archive/2026/03/childs-play-sam-kriss-ai-startup-roy-lee/ submitted by /u/kbob [link] [comments]

A lot of people are stressed about this. I’m assuming it is because it hasn’t really snowed in years. Old heads please provide ease and comfort to all the people currently redditing in the 16 blocks Trader Joes lines. submitted by /u/Rave-light [link] [comments]

During the last snowstorm, we went to Clinton St Baking Company for brunch and we were seated immediately. I had wanted to try their pancakes for years! And the snow finally made it happen since fewer people were out. What place have you always wanted to try but never did because the long lines turned

A dangerous incident on the subway this morning. A man who I assume who was on drugs started verbally and physically freaking out (nothing new) while holding several needles. He almost hit several people while waving his arms and throwing needles. I alerted the NYPD on the platform and they did nothing. What gives? submitted
