I’ll open with obligatory remarks on homeless: 1) they need compassion and support 2) Our capitalist society is inherently unfair and generational poverty can be impossible to escape 3) Reagan and Giuliani and others contributed to the mental health crisis that New Yorkers face everyday. This morning I transferred from the J to the E

I’ve been using craigslist to buy and sell stuff since 2006. It’s great. Simple, no-frills, no algorithms, and generally does what it needs to do. Nowadays, craigslist in NYC is a ghost town for buying and selling. When I search for similar queries on Facebook Marketplace vs. craigslist, I get 10x more results. I’m flummoxed.

So I’m black, 19 and from the uk and a few weeks ago I went to nyc and tried chopped cheese in Brooklyn thinking it’s overrated. But now I’m suffering the consequences. Now that I came back to London I keep having recurring nightmares of being back in New York and ordering chopped cheese but

Just a little example: I know an old Mexican man who collects bottles and cans. We have an agreement for him to ring my bell and collect my bag of recyclables once a week. He also helps bring the rest of the garbage to the curb. He has some sort of hookup with a bakery.

how to start going outside? this goes beyond my anxiety – i want to go outside. i live here. i was born here and ive lived my whole life here. my early college days when i experienced my first breath of “freedom” i was outside every single day. i did as much as i could

Just an honest question. I am born in NYC. My father is an immigrant from Ecuador who got his papers in the 90s. My mother is born in NYC and is Puerto Rican. A little backstory, I manage a law firm in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, but I live in Bushwick so I see two sides

Landed in JFK almost 3 hours ago and have been in the passport control queue for over 2 hours. One man is on the desk now, started with 3 and went down to one about an hour ago. I think I have another hour to go. I’m international but the U.S. queue also only has

I am scared, please advise. I was exiting JFK and a taxi driver was inside the airport at the exit with a few other drivers. I took the taxi against my better judgement because he said he would charge me the same as uber (uber was showing $82) and I thought he was an authorised

Forgive me for sounding conspiratorial, but don’t you find it interesting that he has to limit his workload this week because of health issues while ICE raids are starting in New York City? He certainly felt good enough to kiss alotta ass last week – must’ve caught a red fever submitted by /u/nrdz2p [link] [comments]

I lived in NYC from 1999-2002 and worked across from the WTC. I was there on the morning of 9/11 and watched everything unfold. A year later I tried to explain the experience to someone who wasn’t there, and it seemed impossible. So I just stopped trying. And every year at the anniversary, when the

Update: city hall park, 1/29/25, 4 pm (to the best of my knowledge) The latest round of Trump actions I think finally woke me out of my malaise, also I was sick as a dog last week and couldn’t do much. I work at a university. We don’t function without student loans, which I know

people pushing to get on the subway before passengers get off, grown men racing women and elderly ppl for seats, people coughing right in your face, sitting dead in the middle of high traffic staircases, etc etc. has covid really rotted everyone’s brain like this?? 😣 submitted by /u/avocadomakiroll [link] [comments]

Allergic reaction. Not my fault! Not drunk, not a virus. Vomit imminent. Got off train. Doing my best to hold off but time is limited. Tracks has gotta be the move, right? UPDATE tracks was an insane idea I think I came up with it because of the mental image of dudes spitting on the

There’s plenty of doom & gloom, condemnation, handwringing, and prophesying about the state of things and the future. Political, social, especially environmental. As someone who is fortunate to be comfortable and largely not directly, personally impacted, what can I actually do? How do I actually help combat the bullshit and deterioration? Or at least help
