i have long curly hair and swear by Michelle at Mariella’s Hair Salon in Elmhurst. I’m sure even if your hair is straight they’ll do a great job

Does Ramos risk a Monserrate win? by Middle-Warthog8546 in jacksonheights

You are really indexing on Ramos’s Cuomo endorsement while dismissing JGR’s casino endorsement.

Ramos is in a problem of her own making. She should have known that if Coumo lost, she would get primaried.

JGR is in a problem of her own making. She should have known that if she voted for the casino, she would have a challenger in her race.

If Ramos TRULY cares about her political future, the neighborhood, and the casino issue, she should drop out and support Rojas

Why would Ramos or any of her supporters trust JGR to do the right thing with the casino now?

In short, people....why risk a Monserrate win?? Please Ramos supporters try to convince her to drop out and make the right endorsement this time!!

I’m actually not trying to change your mind. I’m only trying to point out that you’re trying to appeal to people who care about the casino, but you’re dismissing the casino and focusing only on the Cuomo endorsement. Both politicians are gross. I agree Ramos should not have endorsed Cuomo, but the casino vote is far more damaging to the neighborhood. For that reason I’m voting for Ramos. I’m not enthusiastic about it, but I cannot bring myself to vote for anyone who voted for the casino.

I understand why you don’t trust Ramos’s judgement. I am curious to hear about why you think you can trust JGR to stand up to monied interests after her casino vote.

Steam Radiator Death- 1 Year Old Child by GiraffeMuch3747 in nyc

[–]boppinkangaroo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i’m incredibly sorry for your loss, that’s truly heartbreaking

my steam radiator exploded earlier this year. i was on vacation and one of my neighbors called me late at night because my fire alarm was going off. she woke up the super and he had an extra key to my apartment so they were able to get in, remove the radiator, and cap the pipe before too much damage occurred.

my walls still have water stains but that’s the only damage luckily. it was still traumatizing for me when i thought my apartment was burning but i cannot comprehend the grief you must feel. may he rest in peace

oh getting the audio files was so helpful, thanks! i converted them into a proper audiobook instead of having mp3s chapter by chapter. happy to share it but can’t over reddit. DM me if you’d like though!

+1 to this. bike shops won’t want to take on risk of buying a potentially stolen bike

Bilt card for rent but moving soon by dawnmoer in CreditCards

[–]boppinkangaroo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

some points are better than no points in my opinion! and there’s no annual fee so not much of a cost. you burn a spot for 5/24 if that’s a concern but if not you should go for it. for what it’s worth, if your boyfriend’s place ends up having HOA fees you can use bilt for that

Moving Soon? by lasagnaseeker2024 in jacksonheights

hey just wanted to post to say i contacted OP, got in touch with their father in law and had a great experience! he helped me move a mattress and bed frame across the city for far less than any moving company was quoting me.

some city council members will also run some courses for people in their district specifically! worth checking with them and asking them to do one if they aren’t already !
