Curious if this is a my circle thing (early 30s, white collar professionals) or a broader trend in the city (or even nationally). In the last month I’ve had three good friends as well as spoken to multiple other people in social events who have been recently laid off. Trying put my finger on the

The messaging from officials around how people in Harlem are being infected with Legionnaires has been embarrassingly bad. All they’re saying is if you feel flu like symptoms go to the hospital. Nothing specific about how people are being infected, or how to prevent infections from occurring. The most I’ve been able to gather is

A few minutes ago I felt the ground rumbling, then all of a sudden it was like a huge shockwave hit, all my dishes and silverware bounced in the cupboards and then the rumbling moved away. Did anyone else feel that? Anyone have any idea what that was? submitted by /u/Dex2Dex [link] [comments]

I didn’t realize this was a rule in nyc parks. This was just a playground right next to the street. All the doors to the park were open. I have been living in this area for about 5 years, never knew this was a thing. I was sitting with a friend, he got off with

31M. Was kinda hesitant to post this, but honestly—fkkk it. What do I have to lose? If I’m feeling this way, chances are someone else is too. Lately I’ve been feeling pretty isolated. Most weekends blur into doomscrolling, half-watching stuff, and just hanging around my apartment. Not terrible, just kind of…numb. I miss feeling connected.

Pretty self-explanatory. Why do people keep defecating (pooping) in the New York City pools? Specifically, why do people keep defecating in the Gottesman pool located in Central Park? Like seriously New Yorkers are disgusting. And before people come at me that it wasn’t a New Yorker. I am an employee of the parks department. I

Will a couple train stations flood or should we cancel dinner plans if we’re walking ? I’m In downtown Manhattan. Edit: I’m walking , dinner is 10 mins away from Home submitted by /u/omgdude_ [link] [comments]

I noticed a pattern on social media where New Yorkers, especially the natives, seem to speak of transplants in a rather negative light, saying stuff like “They’ll never be real New Yorkers” and mean stuff like that. Still, the same people seem to be much kinder and welcoming towards immigrants from other countries and have

TL;DR: Hi everyone- I was jumped by a group of people last Sunday (7/20) and I filed a police report. There’s now a warrant out for the girls arrest who organized this assault, but I feel as though the police aren’t taking it seriously because they know where she lives and have her phone number

Contrary to popular belief, this city is often asleep, and its usually at the crack of dawn. What are some things my fellow morning people do at like 6/7am? 24hr Diners, parks, long walks, bike ride, this is all I can think of right now. Any hot tips? submitted by /u/Pure-Station-1195 [link] [comments]

Cops are everywhere and I saw a lot of people running away. What’s going on? submitted by /u/HeyImMarlo [link] [comments]

Just finished getting off the phone with 911 because while I was driving I saw an MTA bus with “Emergency Call 911.” So I do what I do when I see that, I call 911 and they ask me the same questions: Where are you? What street did you see the bus? Did you happen

I’m looking for ideas since I’m tired of just vegetating on my phone in bed the moment I get home from work. I’m open to anything, but to give an idea of my personality (if anyone reads this far): I like reading, writing, learning, cats, standup comedy, film and TV, and doing amateur photography. I

Have you ever walked into Tao restaurant? There’s a nondescript door at the front but you walk in and BOOM you’re transported to a candlelit sanctum with a giant Buddha and fountains? That’s what I’m looking for. I took him there once (another example is CAMP where you go through a sliding fake bookcase to

The question is in the title. It’s really not much. Just a picture of 2 close friends having a good time. Is it just as simple as submitting it? What’s the review process like? submitted by /u/something_dumb_59 [link] [comments]

i don’t know if it’s just my area but lately i’ve noticed a bunch of bodegas seem to be getting really sneaky about pricing. like nothing has a price tag, and when you go to check out, it’s some random number that seems to change depending on who’s ringing you up. yesterday i grabbed a

Humidity has been 90%+ and a Dew Point over 70 every single night for like the last 3 weeks straight. One night recently it said 100% Humidity with a 76 DEGREE DEW POINT at like 3 am. Never seen it that high. The temperature tonight in Brooklyn is literally INCREASING into the overnight hours, what

I paid $8.25 for a bacon egg and cheese in Midtown today. On a roll. Not a hero, not with avocado, not from some fancy spot with Edison bulbs and oat milk. Just a regular corner deli. I swear this used to be $3.50 not long ago — maybe $5 with a coffee. What happened??

Normally, we always pick up my mom from the airport, but we asked her to take a taxi this time. Within minutes, she called saying she was already in a car. That felt way too fast, so we asked what color the car was—she said black. Right then, I had a feeling something was off.
