Tearing down the original Penn Station was based you-should-have-no-say-in-what-goes-on-in-your-own-city proto-YIMBY. And we're still dealing with the consequences (me especially today).

People the Mets are doing well but let’s see where they are in the standings by bark-at-the-park night before we get too excited.

And with pre-existing recycling bins for paper, plastic, metal, glass, there shouldn't BE anything in the "regular" trash but food scraps, no? I mean, what else is there? Just have extra bin for miscellaneous instead of food scraps, which should be nothing but stray plastic bags.

Why has nobody suggested to landlords (including mine) that residents use the garbage chute for food scraps only? Because it beats carrying bags of food scraps in the elevator to the basement (where nobody has ever been before!) or having a food scraps bin in the garbage room.

I found it quite interesting during Covid which “public” spaces weren’t. Lincoln Center shut people out for a long time. So did Rockefeller Center. A summer of metal gates.

In reality, they are more in danger outside their gates than inside, as the murder of two students off campus in the past six years showed.

I’m pretty sure that during the first XX years of my life, I never uttered the word “tariff,” but now we just sit around the dinner table casually and regularly discussing various tariff rates and their implications as if we were planning the war of 1812.
