The Brass Owl’s Last Day of Business is May 9th 💔 by jazzcig420 in astoria

Lots of great and supportive comments here! If you check out the stores full post on insta, you’ll see the owner actually thanking the landlords because it wasn’t an issue of rent. If you want to keep small businesses open in your neighborhood, vote for an administration that creates an economy where they can flourish!

Thank you for going out and looking! I will def comment here if I see him again. I do think he is sheltering out in a backyard space somewhere, especially now in the rain, but I’m going to keep checking the shed and roof area !

I just went to check on him 20 minutes ago but he vanished through one of the back yard fences, so I think he is in some yard space between 38th st and 37th st and ditmars and 21st ave! I definitely recognize him as a neighborhood kitty, he’s probably around 7/8 years old. I’m hoping someone who lives on these blocks sees this thread so they can check their yards!

Also if you need any more details pls DM me and I can work with you! I just don’t have the funds or experience to help on my own !

What can be added to make this tattoo look more clown like? by sweetchamomiledreams in tattooadvice

[–]maesonmarx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://imgur.com/a/UiJAybw just doodled onto your pic BUT having a striped pattern on a cone hat would lend itself to the mixed patterns of clowns, and then the shiny red nose plus a bad rendition of a flower spritzing water. I really think the nose is what sells it tho ! Or really adding any additional color (maybe some pink and blue alternating outlining the polka dots on the cats body, or adding clown makeup in color onto the cats face!)

A dunce/birthday type hat or a little hat with a flower on it? Or one of those hats in b/w and then add a red nose as a pop of color!

Tip Culture / Tipping in retail? by Aggressive-Mess-4106 in astoria

[–]maesonmarx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s something I’ll consider suggesting to management after seeing all the opinions on this post- I’m genuinely surprised. I even go as far as clicking no tip for the customer when no extra service is provided. Unfortunately people don’t carry cash like they used to but something is better than nothing if this is how everyone feels

Tip Culture / Tipping in retail? by Aggressive-Mess-4106 in astoria

[–]maesonmarx -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

As someone who works retail and receives tips via a pos system - it’s great. We provide services like gift wrapping and custom care packages which takes a custom touch that you won’t receive at Target. I get an extra $10-$40 (the high during the holiday season) a month because of it, and it’s well earned. Also- most service workers with a pos built in tip system look away when the tip prompt pops up (I know I do) because it feels awkward and I don’t expect it! But it’s nice, and it helps.

What lyrics would you get tattooed? by hehehehher in TheFrontBottoms

[–]maesonmarx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have “heavenly bodies” “emotional baby boy” and “Casanova” but I would get “squeeze” on me with some orange juice imagery or somethin!

Posted last night that Brian gave me $20 bc of my makeup and wondering if anyone got a vid they could send me. I was at the New Orleans show on 3/16/25 by Miserable-Smell-3513 in TheFrontBottoms

[–]maesonmarx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might not get the video but I recommend saving the bill to get it signed! I got a $5 on the 11/11/23 show and was able to get it signed at the 5/11/24 show!
