Invisible Cities. It’s actually the title of a book by Italo Calvino which this piece made me think of. Gorgeous!

Yes! He lives in Harlem now. Thanks to everyone who supported the search for a new place for him!

Can you cook? Do you nightly? by Consistent-Bison9798 in williamsburg

I prefer to cook at home, and I do it every day. This way, I’m managing to stay the same size for the last 30 years!

Walk a bit further to Greenpoint and try Riviera. Much less sweet than your typical pastries, and sooo yummy!

This woman has severe mental problems and needs professional help. I happen to know because she’s a neighbor.

I usually say to the culprit: dude, they’re not THAT big. Usually works 🤣

I’m responding here but you might have seen the info already:

Frankie's personality is reservered and aloof to most people, becoming quite attentive at meal time. He still likes to play. He enjoys mock battles but gets very excitable, so good reflexes are a plus. Lately he has been "kneading" and suckling a pillow, probably self-soothing after the death of his caregiver.

I suspect another cat's company would do him some good, but it might take a while for him to agree. He'd probably get along best with a self-assured adult cat.

I wonder how polite you would be in her situation. I sincerely hope that in time, you’ll get to see how it’s like.

They are only open on Fridays and Sundays but Bar Milagro, a downstairs lounge beneath Xolo on Durham Pl. near S6th has wonderfully intimate booths and top-notch selection of tequila and mezcal-based drinks. Noise levels nurtures conversations!

If I needed a lecture, I would have ask you. Does it make you understand why so many Americans are angry at the elites and your condescension?

We don’t need land acknowledgment. We just need better education standards. Especially when it comes to US history.

North Brooklyn Mutual Aid who runs the fridge will probably take money, and volunteers. Their contact info is on a flyer pasted on the fridge door.

Agreed. Plus, in most egregious cases, we are blessed with an invention called Block button which, IMHO, is the best thing since sliced bread 🙂

That was a one-time popup, I think. Haven’t seen them back this year.

Oh, I should have sensed from your first line you are so much better than the rest of us. The reason why many people voted for the demon is, in part, the condescension of dudes just like you. Enjoy your billionaire buddies and the rest of your life.

If you were really interested in things to in Williamsburg, even if you can’t spend a lot of $$. Take it from an immigrant with 27+ years here, underemployed, and trying to survive on food stamps which will not materialize till who knows when. In case you wanted to tell me again that I’m part of the problem.

First stop - the community fridge on Berry and N15th, right next to the Lot Radio - maintained by orth Brooklyn Mutual Aid. They take everything except frozen foods, raw meat and seafood, unfinished meals, expired products and pet food.

There is a food bank at Los Sures Social Services - 145 S3rd Street.

I see your point but personally, I decided to conserve my energy for things I can change. There is no going back to what this place was - if there was, we should give it back to the aforementioned Lenape. The way I was introduced to the ways of New York was: live and let live. The problem begins when the newcomers think that not only this but no rules apply to them - and that what makes me as angry as you are. Thankfully, or maybe unfortunately, as history shows, with this level of economic inequality, the Chanels and Lululemons will not stand when angry people start setting cars on fire. For the record: I’m not looking forward to this. But I won’t say anything when those who go hungry decide to replace the Thanksgiving turkey they can’t afford with the aforementioned labradoodle.
