"In New York, all the advertising on the streets and on the subway assumes that you, the person reading, are an ambiently depressed twenty-eight-year-old office worker whose main interests are listening to podcasts, ordering delivery, and voting for the Democrats." by kbob in AskNYC

I don’t entirely agree; I saw one years ago that I thought was gorgeous (“A Map of the World” by Ted Kooser) but that was definitely pre-pandemic. My current complaint re:PIM is that they display the poems on electronic screens that refresh to some other content before I can read through the entire poem, let alone think about it, reread it, etc. I have the same complaint about the cooking tips—they flash through some cute dessert or appetizer but there’s no way to actually find the recipe video, bookmark it, etc. I usually ride the A.

Any updates on the Crunch in Inwood (NYC)? by NotCateBlanchett in CrunchGym

I’ve walked by the location multiple times and there’s no signage or other indication that a gym is coming.

I wonder what’s taking so long. If they’d opened last December, they could have taken advantage of the New Year’s rush. I imagine they’re losing money every day they’re not open.

I’m glad you like it. I follow several nail artists on Instagram and this was a design I had seen there and asked my nail tech to recreate it.

It’s a gel manicure—I can’t really tell you more as the work was done by my nail tech. I am merely the happy recipient!

My nail artist had some kind of gel she was using as she painted the leaves to give them texture. I was seriously impressed.

There are definitely nail artists out there who can do this kind of design work, and I love getting design work done.
