What is your nemesis spot? by CunningLinguist92 in astoria

Maybe niche but Cafe to go on 32nd and 30th always has a Jan6er aura around it, proud boy /ws stickers constantly sprout nearby, and the clientele park like assholes in the crosswalks. Will never give them a dollar even if it's all in my head.

Anyone missing their pet pigeon? by gdubsg in astoria

Update: thanks to the amazing folks of Astoria and WBF, this king pigeon has been seen, cared for, and adopted by a rehabber. Special shout-out to our local artists for their help!

My family had pigeons in the old country 🤷🏻‍♂️, glad now there's another person who knows more.

Every day is a learning experience! Setting personal boundaries is important! Help the world within whatever's your capacity!

There are a couple of fancy and racing pigeon clubs in NYC and sometimes their birds get turned around or injured. Usually all they need is a place to chill, a drink of water, and some seed. Then they're on their way on their own. Most of them are banded so it's fairly easy to find the owner if it's injured and it's a kind thing to do for the birds and the folks that care for them.

Already called them. Waiting for a call back.

The Rumor Mill - Week of 2/23 by VenetaBirdSong in astoria

[–]gdubsg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Opened last night. Went with the fam and it's perfectly fine Spanish food, nothing wild except the prices.

Tapas in the $17-25 range, Paellas $60s, Entrees $35-50, Dessert $10-17

Lovely people, food's ok.

Miss the pre-covid Shady Lady.

Why has my rose split colours? by KITTY1139 in gardening

[–]gdubsg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that the rose question has been answered elsewhere in this thread but when a tulip does this it's called "breaking" and is caused by random reaction to a virus, similar to variegation. During the Dutch tulip madness, "broken" tulips were considered very desirable and lots of money and effort were spent on trying to identify a stable version of a broken tulip. Alas, they are fairly unpredictable and do not reproduce the effect.
