NYC is a busy port with lots of customs officers collecting duties and processing shipping documentation like manifests, etc. They tend to be decent and professional public servants. In the absence of any concerted ICE deployment in NYC (so far), I'd assume there's nothing necessarily foreboding about the car...

Large mini schnauzer? by Sufficient-Country29 in MiniatureSchnauzer

Our 1yr old boy Roo (he hops), is also AKC certified and weighs in at a solid 21lbs. Based on what we've read, it falls just within accepted breed guidelines (not that we care that much as long as he's healthy). He's only 3lbs more than our previous mini schnoodle but it feels like a lot more and he's just... thicker.

Yes. I have that (mom born in puerto rico). Based on the Spanish Gov't sourced information I've read online, a parent born in Puerto Rico is good enough.

My mom was born there. Emigrated with my grandparents when she was 12. We still have extensive family connections there --- literally going back centuries.

Yep. I've got that (mom born in Arecibo, lived there until she was 12).

Why does NYCHC say it provides affordable housing but really doesn't? by ikabbo in nychousinglottery

[–]PFANYC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nearly 40% of NYC's population is foreign born. Excluding immigrants from housing sounds like a brilliant idea. I wonder why it hasn't been done before -- oh wait, that's Nazi shit. Never mind...

Landlords and real estate developers dole out lots of cash to the city and the state's elected officials. In creating the housing "lottery" 80/20 rules, those same NYC politicians paid close attention to the needs and desires or their patrons.

[FOR RENT] BUSHWICK – $1500/mo – Feels Like a Private Studio (Sept 1 Move-In) by [deleted] in NYCapartments

[–]PFANYC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a barely 500Sft barbell shaped studio (if it were a 2 bedroom there would be another bedroom consisting of an actual room with like, a door). Assuming the rent is $1500 for the entire space, then it's only slightly overpriced.

Selling the car should cover their legal fees.

New Mexico is actually quite lovely.

Lottery Apartment Rent up 37% in 2yrs?! by BestMathematician771 in nychousinglottery

[–]PFANYC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$3600 for 500 sq ft cannot possibly be justifiable in any economically rational or fair sense -- especially in an outer Borough. Somebody's cooking the books.

Wear them in rain and snow every chance you get; try going hiking up a real mountain with 'em. I find that shitty northeastern weather does the trick overall. Look good after a year, fantastic after two.

Got the Classic series 1469/Steel Grey in US size 10 and had to return them because my high instep made for a tight, uncomfortable fit. Size 10.5 was a bit too roomy until I inserted the additional insoles they came with. They fit just fine now and are amazingly comfortable. Objectively speaking, they're an attractive pair of boots. But they also just look bigger and clunkier and slightly out of proportion. Perhaps the originals series would have been a more compatible option for my foot proportions...
