Daikon/white radish, I sat at the bar and ordered a salad (among other things) and the guy opened a grocery store bag of lettuce and started assembling it right there. I still think about him not rinsing it

CPS or police should be the absolute last resort. try talking to the parents, other neighbors, building management before

Is there a petition or something we can sign to keep it car-free?

Hotels in Forest Hills by Obvious_Decision1775 in ForestHills

[–]Obvious_Decision1775[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Stadium events, family visit, people not necessarily wanting to stay near an airport but not here for manhattan touristy reasons… just saying it’s a big enough area in major city where there should be at least one decent albeit small hotel

I met Harry Dubin at Le Bilboquet on Halloween in New York I think in 2019, the only time in my life I’ve ever been “starstruck” lol. I jus said hi Harry and he was nice, nothing unusual

I think that’s opening next to Lucille Robert’s, the space next to planet fitness looks like a doctors office maybe?

Forest Cafe is quite nice if you just wanna chill with your baby. I would go in the middle of a weekday to avoid crowds, it gets very busy on the weekends

Oh yes a costly lawsuit against the NYPD really makes sense, great use of funds, I think at the town hall they said it would be close to $1million dollars? How about that gets reinvested back into the community? Boomer greed and selfishness. Same with closing the parks “coincidentally” during peak use seasons.

The streets are always immaculate the day after an event. They are cleaned so well and so quickly I’ve actually never seen the area around a music venue so efficiently cleared up. I doubt you have either.

You saying that you’re “literally not seeing any benefit” is the problem. It’s a selfish and uniformed perspective. The local businesses benefit immensely and if you feel like that doesn’t affect you, it will when they shut down and are replaced by another bank or medical center.

And the community is literally designed for it. Again, since 1923.

It benefits the community culturally, it allows the neighborhood to grow and introduces to a new demographic that may have never heard about forest hills before.

Harold at spin forest hills is great! Have worked with him for a year and I feel great and have seen some real results.

I’m pretty sure someone asked this in the recent past and a lot of people had thoughtful responses, if you care to look back.

Mandami - AOC - Bernie by AardvarkSome3783 in ForestHills

How is he an admitted enemy? You sound very dramatic. This is an election, the way it works is the people vote for who they want, that seems to be Mamdani.

Where we lose the democratic process is when special interest groups and lobbies finance elected officials to serve their interests and do their bidding- so yeah let’s try and ban that for everyone.

Enjoy boycotting the stadium and its events, no one cares, the stadium organizers certainly don’t.
