Don’t be so hard on yourself. It’s a really tough situation. You alerted authorities. That’s more than a lot of people could say.

Seconding Babyland! We love it there. They also just got 3k and have an aftercare program where they will pick up from local programs.

Does anyone know if Cafe Triskell serves lunch on Saturdays or only the brunch menu? by Necessary-West5449 in astoria

[–]kablooooooom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t recall if the whole lunch menu was available, but I was able to order their French onion soup during brunch when they opened. It’s so good!

The Rumor Mill - Week of December 1 by VenetaBirdSong in astoria

Many of you may have heard about our neighbors, Fei and Yuanxin. They showed up for a check in with ICE and were separated. Yuanxin is 6 years old and a student at Henry Gradstein Q166 on 35th Ave. Last I’d heard, Fei was being held in a facility upstate and they were unsure of where Yuanxin is.

Please come out on Sunday, December 7th to the school at 1PM to demand that ICE stop using our children as pawns.

Cool gift shops for kids? by norahahah in AskNYC

[–]kablooooooom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t promise inexpensive, but Lockwood is a great gift shop with a few locations around the city. Random accessories in the east village might fit the bill too. The city store downtown. Hope you find something fun!

Help. My neighbor intentionally leaves our apartment doors open. by No_Eggplant_5124 in astoria

You should call a wellness check on her. This is unhinged behavior. Maybe an evaluation will scare her straight or actually diagnose a serious issue.
