I’m coming to NYC very soon with my son for treatment at Sloan Kettering. We’re coming from a rural place, really rural. We don’t have public transit. We don’t have food delivery.

Our apartment hasn’t had heat for over 48 hours and we texted the landlord as soon as we noticed the issue. I got fed up of sleeping without heat so I called him and mentioned that it’s 60 degrees so I’m wondering when he can turn it on. He started getting pissed over the phone

Monday and Tuesday next week, my phone thinks we’re going to get 12-15 inches of snow. It could prove wrong as we get closer, but right now it thinks 4-5″ on the 6th and 8-10″ on the 7th. For those who remember big snows here, what’s it like? I vaguely remember getting big snows like

Can be a cafe, restaurant, neighborhood, park, a street, nature Here are some examples and why: Jamaica Bay Wildlife Preserve Trail: feels like the middle of the woods City Island: feels like a New England fishing village Roll-n-Roaster: huge; feels like a restaurant somewhere in the middle of the country you’d stop at on a

I’m from closest province in China to Thailand so I’m picky about Thai food, and Thai food here in NYC is like never goes wrong. I previously lived in Bay Area and you have to find delicious Thai food like really really hard where here in NY was like everywhere is so good. submitted by

I’m not a Muslim, but isn’t it all haram? Where is this distinction coming from? I also recognize that some do not sell any of this, but I’m curious about the ones that are split in this manner. submitted by /u/brightside1982 [link] [comments]

Morning,…so the sidewalks are incredibly icy. I didn’t know it was supposed to snow. It was nice to see… After a couple of times of slipping, …. my feet went straight up in the air…landed on upperback… SO scary.. my shoulder hurts tons… I was so embarrassed… I don’t even know what else to say….
