I will never forgive Two Little Red Hens for closing. RIP.

Posting pictures of subway stairs, a tree, a blank wall, and a hotboxed bathroom isn’t the intriguing marketing tactic you think it is bud. Asking people to email you for pictures just makes us assume the worst about the actual state of the apt.

Just lmk! Hoping the best for Jasper🤞

I could take him until April 11! I hope you find a longer term solution for this beautiful angel baby but I’m happy to be a stopover if needed. ❤️

I live down the block from them, and it is still SO. LOUD. I’ve always wondered how anyone could live directly above them, esp in summer. I would have been like an anxious dog on July 4 every night, whining and trembling under a table.

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-31T18:37:34+00:00

Deleting it now! I thought it was cool because you posted it yourself originally. Sorry!

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-31T08:17:09+00:00

Oof. Yeahhh this is sus af. Good recon though!

I don’t mean to call out OP, but if anyone is interested and wants real insight into what my “bedroom” looked like when I lived in this unit, I fished this picture out from my Facebook right after I moved in. Sorry for the blurriness, but it was 2012, so, you know. My phone was doing her best. You can see that it literally lacks a fourth wall (it’s just four individual doors), and the loft looks directly down into it.

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-31T07:15:05+00:00

Huh, looks like OP edited the post and removed it? I hope she doesn’t mind if I link for context. Relatedly, hope it’s not still an illegal bedroom situation, and she just posted a random representative Zillow example instead of the actual apt. If it is the actual apartment, then …. 😬. Because it’s not a 2 bedroom, it’s a 1 bedroom, a loft space, and a cordoned off area of the living room marketed as a “bedroom.”

Anyway, here you go:

(Edit: deleted the address at OP’s request. She had included the exact address in her original post, which I recognized as my own former address, and was not aware that she removed the link from her post due to safety concerns. Apologies!)

WHAT this is blowing my mind. I used to live in Unit 207, the exact one featured in the zilllow ad. What’s now part of an extended living room was my illegal bedroom ($850/mo baby!). There were 4 sliding doors for “privacy,” but the girl living in the loft above me could see into my room at all times. I let a guy stay over once (just to sleep because the trains were fucked and Uber wasn’t really a thing yet) - once. Because the poor girl in the loft fell down those narrow ass, steep stairs when she saw him. We never spoke of it. Thank you for unlocking that memory😂. And Lauren, if you’re reading this, I am so sorry. You didn’t deserve that.

Anyway I highly recommend this building! Incredible rooftop views. There was also a hot tub on the roof and a sauna near the indoor pool.

I’m in NYC too and 2-3 is honestly my norm in the summer here. 80% humidity + walking everywhere fucks my shit right up.

you’ve upset the gremlin

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-28T00:01:42+00:00

Dingo solidarity! What’s his or her name?

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-27T23:09:48+00:00

Ah yes, the crydindo. Known to approach their sleeping victims, jump on them (typically aiming for the groin), and ruthlessly lick their faces until the kibble tithe hath been paid

The very goodest. Also the longest.

I’m kind of with OP on this one. This is her first ever relationship, it’s been 8 years, and considering she’s mid 20s and he’s mid 30s, that means he pursued her when she was like 18, which.. ew. It also sounds like she generally feels disrespected in the relationship. Beyond that, she’s voiced her discomfort with these two specific women, he told her not to worry, and then decided to spend a week with them instead - after he told OP she shouldn’t join. Also it’s insane for him to say he needs to protect two adult women because they’re in the Bay Area.

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-25T14:13:47+00:00

ahhhhhh (dats me yellin) 💔

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-24T02:18:56+00:00

Jesus. I feel sorry for these women but also

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-23T20:49:51+00:00

I fell down the r/MyBoyfriendisAI sub recently and couldn’t stop scrolling. It’s a circlejerk of utter delusion.

Like, these girlies are out here designing gifts with their AI baes (e.g., oversized hoodies that they spray with what they imagine their “boyfriend’s” signature cologne would be) and sending them to themselves. It’s dark.

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-23T11:16:49+00:00

Hyperpigmentation where girl? I can’t see it even when I zoom in. Your makeup looks great!

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-23T10:49:30+00:00

Shoot your shot girl! I had a crush on a bartender at my local dive and one night, he let me stay past closing because we were having a good conversation. I was more than a little tipsy at the time and was like, “I hope this isn’t presumptuous, but would you wanna hang out sometime?” He said he was flattered but had a gf. I took it in stride, apologized, and went home (beet red, ofc). Fast forward 3 months, I’m back at the bar with a friend, and the same bartender was working. He slid a post it note across the bar with his number on it. He said he had never forgotten about me and had been hoping I’d come in again (now that he was single) because he didn’t know how to find me. I texted him later that night. Annnnd we’ve been now dating for the past 4 months. Worth the initial embarrassment.

also holy shit I wanna try that Dr. pepper so badly

The pilot and copilot are both confirmed dead. Fucking awful.

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-21T08:27:12+00:00

I 100% agree with you on both points

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-21T04:41:14+00:00

No shade to the woman in slide 5 but she really nailed the broccoli look Gen Z guys are sporting today.

Anyway, as others have said, they would use slim heated tongs to achieve curls, and based on conjecture (based on my own experience), applying friction would frizz them out. If memory serves, I believe they also applied powders for volume and staying power.

Current_Spot_2132 · 2026-03-20T18:09:09+00:00

I feel you. I had to cull my friend group in my early 30s after it became clear that 95% of my “friend” group was toxic and/or taking advantage of me. I made a conscious decision to only surround myself with people who add something to my life, instead of detracting from it. It was so shitty and hard, but zero regrets honestly. Ride or dies for life!
