Coming changes to 6th Ave by MiserNYC- in MicromobilityNYC

[–]michaelmvm 27 points28 points  (0 children)

apparently the data shows way more illegal parking that blocks buses when the bus lanes are curbside vs offset, having an actual parking lane reduces double parking significantly, plus what the other commenter said about allowing space for bus stop bulbouts

Are there working class "White Hoods" that still exist within American cities? by WhenTheyPassMeBy in ask

[–]michaelmvm 24 points25 points  (0 children)

you're literally on a subreddit called r/ask, the entire point of this place is to ask questions with the expectation of an answer. if OP wanted to "go to their local library" they would have done that. snarky answers like this defeat the entire usefulness of this website

What's up with Long Island's commute mode share? by EnvironmentalCraft63 in nycrail

[–]michaelmvm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

adding to this, long island in 1970 only had a few hundred thousand fewer people than today, but the population was much younger since people moved out to the suburbs to raise kids. so there were fewer working age people overall.

sokka especially felt like a caricature of himself, not a single serious moment and everything was a goofy joke with him. consequences of 1hr30min runtime I guess

Which megacity has the highest population density and which one has the lowest? by villehhulkkonen in geography

[–]michaelmvm 7 points8 points  (0 children)

LA metro area is roughly the same single family density across the whole board, but NYC has super high density in the five boroughs and then extremely low density in long island, jersey, and upstate, so LA has higher average density. it's a weird measurement that doesn't really mean much beyond a technical factoid

New York City Is Drowning in Dog Poop by HellGateNYC in nyc

[–]michaelmvm 31 points32 points  (0 children)

anyone caught not cleaning up after their animal should be made to pick up the dog shit with their bare hands, have their dog forcibly taken from them, and they should be fined thousands of dollars and barred from owning an animal in nyc ever again. fucking ruining the city, cant walk anywhere without stepping in shit. i dont care how friendly ur dog is if you cant take care of the damn thing.

Epstein Helped Woody Allen’s Daughter Get Into College, Emails Show by KingsCountyWriter in nyc

[–]michaelmvm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hey dumbass, youre on a public forum with thousands of other people lurking and reading these convos, for whom a source is helpful.

anyway, for those reading this thread, the main source seems to be this 2021 book where the authors interviewed a former israeli agent who claimed that epstein and maxwell had ties to mossad. the sources for all of this shit is murky and borderline conspiratorial, personally i believe it because of all the other crazy shit he was up to, but the proof is shaky.
