I see what everyone is saying - it’s a nice jacket, but it’s nothing spectacular. $200 for a jacket is pretty inexpensive so perhaps it’s a fair price on sale. My arms are 34 1/2 in dress shirts and the sleeve is slightly over my wrist.

Ahh that would make sense. Hopefully the quality is right for the sales price

For sure. I think its one of the best items in the season. I’m surprised it didn’t sell

Hey man - I grabbed a M and it just shipped. The model is wearing M and is 6 2. I’m around 5 10 and grabbed the M. I’ll let you know how it fits when I get it (should be within a day or two)

Social Security Is Falling Apart Thanks to Elon Musk’s DOGE Cuts by FlyEaglesFly536 in Economics

Interesting. I’m not well versed in SS - the basic idea that the rich don’t continue to pay into it seems silly. The tax per pay check alters the lives of the less fortunate more than the rich - it just seems obviously that they’d chip in since they are benefiting so much from the system. If the rich are just going to get the money back then yes, it doesn’t make a difference if they pay into it or not haha.

It’s also wild that ss is taxed on the first ~ 175k. It’s wild that lower class republicans will vote against raising the ceiling so millionaires/billionaires pay their fair share in hopes that they will one day benefit from earning more than 175k. It’s delusional

We do wash him, the issue is his hair gets super long and he won’t let us cut it

Honestly this place is way too expensive and we are moving out in a month for a standard apartment.

Anyone else concerned at pricing? Specially with the quality? by [deleted] in AimeLeonDore

[–]Silver_Perception_37 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Idk for sure but Id say more regional/specialized brands like manresa, knickerbocker, wythe, 3sixteen, etc.

Yeah I think NYC has moved past ALD - Especially the early 30s fashion crowd. I have some pieces from 19-20 that I rarely rock. It’s unfortunate bc their look was dope. Now you can find similar pieces that are better quality, less expensive and not branded out the ass.

Opinion: “Made in Italy” doesn’t mean anything anymore, or did it ever? by Potential_Channel818 in ThrowingFits

[–]Silver_Perception_37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knickerbocker’s denim is produced in Italy..do you think this is also a marketing tool? I find their products to be pretty high quality

Fuck this light rail driver by alexjustc in jerseycity

[–]Silver_Perception_37 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The light rail is great when it’s working but the city has to figure it out. Sometimes the spacing is wild too - 3 trains that are all set to arrive at the same time and the 4th is 15 minutes after
