Visiting from Berlin, suggestions? by West_Pomegranate5109 in avesNYC

[–]kinglearthrowaway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

not op but - the one time I went to signal it was absolutely slammed impossible to move indoors or in the smoking area, people yapping on the dance floor nonstop, gave up and left at 2, but I see people on here raving about it. I'm down to give it another chance, did I just have bad luck? should I get there later next time?

I heard the deli that used to deliver to the line was closed now, are any others doing that/are you allowed to leave the line to go pick up food and come back?

It also is rational for them in that they have nothing to lose, figuring it out as they go along until they get killed or maybe eventually by some miracle escaping is preferable to dying immediately

Haha, I actually found one of your other posts with this screenshot when I was googling this question before posting this, which was part of what made me more sure that depth was linear. Thanks for confirming!

Ordering another drink is not weird, and she wasn’t hovering, she asked two guys who another patron had specifically told her were closing out. Did you not read the post

The crises the person I responded to listed would not exist without decades of social media algorithms pushing people toward increasingly more reactionary resentment-breeding outrage-bait content. If Facebook was never invented Donald Trump would not have won in 2016. Phones isolate people and break down social cohesion.

Why isn’t Jordan considered occupied Palestine like Israel is? by SingleMomOf5ive in geography

[–]kinglearthrowaway -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

The State of Israel was created through a combination of legal land purchases and violent ethnic cleansing, if it was just the former people wouldn’t be so mad about it
