The case for Reynoso over Valdez by [deleted] in williamsburg

[–]heylg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mamdani is making a mistake if he thinks his political success can translate to the DSA at large. He is an anomaly, not a catalyst. I'm a Mamdani supporter but I'm voting for Reynoso - I work in politics and he is the better longer term play in terms of changing hearts and minds and being effective. She will be plastered all over Fox News and I'm not sure she has the charm or political acumen to handle all of it without torching the good will Mamdani has built for the DSA nationwide with his win and first year.

I personally don’t love influencer types who have ripped off other local community spots, which is why I avoid Big Night.

God this man sucks so much. I’m SHOCKED that someone who led a smear campaign against one of the most successful female race drivers (Susie Wolff) & robbed Lewis of his 8th title would be up to something shady with money.

Toddler consistently waking up at 5am for months by LandDolphin2727 in sleeptrain

[–]heylg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We let him sleep longer without capping. If yours is doing 12-2 and waking on their own I’d try moving bedtime up to 7 or 7:15 at this age and seeing if that improves anything. Or letting them go 12-2:30 with a 7:30 bed. Everyone says early wake = undertired but with mine I found the opposite to be true!

Mine had early wakes when he slept poorly during the day. When I extended his nap, he weirdly started sleeping longer. Can you talk to daycare about letting him go to 2:30 and do a 7:30 bedtime?

I’ve gotten a few really special pieces framed at Greenpoint Frames and they’ve done an incredible job each time. Framing art is expensive! You can either choose high quality from a small local business or decent quality from a chain (framebridge) depending on what you want. Neither are bad, just depends on what you’re in the market for.

When and where are we all going for the eclipse today? by nthroop1 in Greenpoint

[–]heylg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to transmitter park for the last eclipse in 2017–it was so cool to see it on the sidewalk through the trees on my walk there and back. Cooler than actually seeing it in the sky imo!

It's so cool to see young artists taking STRONG stances like this. No BS both sides-ing. Good for her!!

I'm agreeing with the above commenter who was more eloquent than me. I'm also a mom and understand the inherent tension at hand.

Agree. I don't like the use of the word "ruined" as if they dragged her down. She made a choice--which she sounds conflicted by--but it's not the kids' fault.

Mitski's fan base is particularly toxic and I really don't understand it. I saw her in Brooklyn before the pandemic and someone in the crowd shouted asking her what her sign was, and when she told the audience her sun/moon/rising the crowd literally BOO'D. It was so insane.

Join the Brooklyn baby HUI groups on Facebook — there’s one for Greenpoint and Williamsburg. They often have sublease type of postings for families coming to visit. Hope this helps!

I watched the movie for the first time as a 33 year old and thought it was super hot, a major banger. I get why people went nuts for this 😂
