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

A Jan study pegged office lunches at $23.60 per meal in major cities… that sounds a bit high to me? Then again, working in Midtown, lunch is about $20 for me if I include a morning coffee and a slop bowl from Sweetgreen, Chopt, Naya, Chiptole, etc. I like getting salads for lunch, but the

i’ll start: i am so excited to have a trash can on almost every block after a week in mexico city where i have rarely found one on the street submitted by /u/rainbowbigfoot [link] [comments]

I want to clarify not trying to trash bushwick or say it’s bad. i genuinely had a good time and met cool people. i’m mostly trying to calibrate whether my expectations were off. I went there looking for a community and realized I was just looking at a product. i’m 24 and visited bushwick before.

Today, I was riding the A home from work minding my own business listening to music. Suddenly, a 12 year old kid approached me and asked me something while showing me a clipboard, mind you this was at 11pm and he was alone, but I did the usual “no” shrug and didn’t hear what he

By now I’m used to most cultural differences, but there’s still one thing I haven’t really adjusted to which isthe perception of public space. In Japan or Korea or other Asian countries, public space generally means “a shared space where you should avoid inconveniencing others.” People tend to try to be quiet, mindful of seating,

I work in Greenwich village. Bunch of my co-workers and people in my extended network always want to “get coffee” to catch up. About 90% of the time we end up going somewhere, buying coffee and there’s no place to sit. The 3 or 4, or 8 or 10 seats/tables are completely full, and I

I want to thank whoever was at 7th Street Burger yesterday in Kips Bay when my daughter had a seizure. She is still in the ICU but will thankfully recover thanks to the kind strangers who helped her. I am forever grateful. submitted by /u/Mollyranda [link] [comments]

hi everyone, I’m 29F and this post is my last ditch attempt. I moved to NYC thinking this would finally be the place where I could live out my NYC girl dreams and actually build a social life. But it just hasn’t happened. I haven’t found any real avenues to make friends. Even in workout

Exceptions made for the elderly and disabled, obviously. But if you’re one of the many cars I see that clearly haven’t moved in >2 weeks, I’m curious as to why you think you actually need it. submitted by /u/GhostOfTammanyHall [link] [comments]

TV shows like Succession give the impression that rich NYers consider it beneath them to take the subway (yes I know it is TV), and not just the billionaire family but their lawyers and so on as well Yet I know at least some rich NYers (not billionaires, but rich, 10s of millions ) who

Post an intersection or crossing that’s awful to walk through right now because of the snow. Higher foot traffic is a plus. Any borough. I’ll clear up whichever one is the favorite on this thread tomorrow morning (Sat, Feb 7). submitted by /u/DropMapp [link] [comments]

For people who have lived here several decades, isn’t this actually more extreme cold than we’ve ever experienced before? I’ve been reading that this winter supposedly only feels extreme because we got used to warmer winters, but I’m a 40 year old native and I can’t remember ever having so many sub-20 days in such

I feel like it’s been 3 months since some reasonable temps. What are you all doing on weekends these days when it’s simply dangerous to be outside? submitted by /u/Ill_Ad_695 [link] [comments]
