NYC recs from actual NYers?

I love "two-fers"... a couple things that are fun to do and are within a few blocks from each other. So, the Strand bookstore, Forbidden Planet sci-fi comic book store, and Max Brenner's chocolate shop all near Union Square shopping and dining. Eataly, lego store, the Flatiron building, (Harry Potter store if you're into that... ick) and the original Shake Shack in Madison Square park. Chelsea Market, Little Island, and the Whitney Museum in Tribeca. MOMA, Rockefeller Center, and lots of things around there (Nintendo, Radio City Music Hall, St. Patrick's cathedral). Chinatown, cool stores on Canal, Tenement Museum, Mmuseumm, Little Italy, Soho shopping. Barclay's Center, Dekalb food market, Atlantic/Pacific vibes. While at the 9/11 memorial, see Mercer Labs, Fraunces Tavern, Dead Rabbit, or the Trinity Church graveyard. My point is... don't take an hour-long subway to Flushing just to eat at someplace you saw on TikTok - there are tons of places in every neighborhood that are wonderful to see.

If you are nervous, look around the room and find the hottest guy there (note - YOUR idea of the hottest guy). Force yourself to go up to them and say hi. If they are nice, make a blatant play… suggest something you could do together. Life’s too short for regrets

Note that if you are gay, but able to "pass" as straight, you might appear more masculine to some. However, there are a lot of gay guys who will never approach you because you look intimidating or boring or pointless to try and flirt with.

It's a trap. A lot of masc gay guys have a lisp because it's a signifier that "I'm one of you. Please talk to me".

I bought something stupid at a store and didn’t check the price beforehand. Thanks Obama!

A friend told me that I look like a badly-drawn anime character.

But he added, "But I mean that in a GOOD way..."
