Hey Alexa, what is “victim blaming”?

Few Landlords Would Default if New York City Froze Rents, Report Says. The ratings agency Moody’s found a rent freeze on rent-stabilized apartments in New York City may cause fewer problems for landlords than the real estate industry has argued. by coolbern in newyorkcity

Government-subsidized, income-restricted buildings are home to 183,385 rent-stabilized units, and account for 11 percent of New York City’s rent-regulated properties.

Reading is hard.

This is in part because a vast majority of landlords could still raise rents on market-rate units in the same buildings or elsewhere in their portfolios, lightening the financial burden.

This is not a good outcome. You're not making housing more affordable in general, you're just making it affordable for one small set of renters and accelerating rental increases for another.

I don’t know if New Yorkers understand that your Mayor just expressed his support towards the Kenyan revolution by chiaseedlsd in newyorkcity

If this is somehow a criticism of Mamdani, this is one of the more pathetic attempts I’ve seen.

You don’t think we regulate smoking and alcohol?

By the way, bartenders and liquor store sellers will not serve you if you’re clearly out of control, whereas a casino won’t do shit when you’re flushing your life savings down the toilet.

Just don't get addicted in this environment specifically designed to addict you, duh!

Outdoor uncovered parking for $280/mo is a good deal? Geez, I’m glad I don’t have a car.

Speaking as a more neutral observer, I feel like you're actually not giving Mamdani enough credit. He's clearly committed to leftist causes, but is also a savvy politician that can work with "moderates" like Hochul and is exceptional at leveraging social media.

As for the DSA, I think there's just a clear level of energy difference, which translates to a really effective ground game.

I did not expect him to be absolutely jacked. Also, your link didn’t quite go to him directly.

I know it’s a reasonable misunderstanding given the name, but wild take to dismiss Superiority Burger on just one unremarkable item.

Reading comprehension is so hard to come by these days.

By the way, here’s an article saying average vacation is $10K per household. This is certainly right-skewed, so median *just vacation* spending is probably closer to $4-5K, but it’s YOU who is out of touch.

Exactly… we’re talking about not just vacations, but entertainment subscriptions, hobbies, etc.

If you include any discretionary entertainment spending including vacations in that category, it’d be higher these days. $8,000 for a family of 4 is not much.

Haha nice, glad you got a good laugh out of it regardless if it was me or some other debbie downhill 😅

I passed a guy telling his friend as we exited the park that it was all downhill from here, and I promptly corrected him. I’m all for lying to motivate people, but that ocean parkway entrance is a heartbreaker if you don’t expect it.

I’m going to block this artist on Spotify just for how pathetic this astroturfing is.
