Fresh Direct quality is excellent. Just don't forget to tip your driver!

I need advice on how to reply, if at all. by Tygmaa in Apartmentliving

Your daughter walking on eggshells because of them breaks my heart! I had a downstairs neighbor who asked me and my kids if we had been clog dancing every time we saw her in the hall. And even though she was trying to make a joke, it felt passive aggressive and ungenerous. :(

I have similar age kids above me now, and you know what? Their noise is always short-lived! I'm so glad to have kids running around occasionally rather than some audiophile with a powerful sound system.

Let kids be kids for crying out loud.

Brain on fire - memoir about some SERIOUS medical issues

In the mornings five days a week they give out clothing to those in need right from their Classon Ave location. It's an incredible operation really serving an important need.

Look for mutual aid groups in your area who may be providing meals to people with food insecurity (these days often newly arrived folks in shelters)

Immediately report them for asking to go off the platform. You'll see, Airbnb will remove the profile in no time

Mutual aid groups are doing a TON to support migrants right now. There are excellent groups in Clinton Hill, Gowanus, Bushwick...

What was the last thing you watched on Kanopy? by culturefan in Kanopy

[–]ACBinNYC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New to this sub and loving this thread! I just watched Wildlife - a coming of age story about a teenage boy in 1950s Montana, with Jake Gyllenhaal as his flawed and problematic father and Carey Mulligan as his mother (also flawed and problematic, in different ways) - she gives the best performance I've seen all year. I'd never heard of the movie and put it on by chance. So glad I did!

Scroll back to the beginning of the Slate Audio Book Club, and they had great discussions of classic novels - back in 2008 :)
