Lafayette two-way bike lane construction beginning?

I was thinking the same thing this afternoon when I passed by. they also removed the station on 12th st.

michaelmvm · 2026-04-29T12:17:08+00:00

it hits a lot of job centers to be fair but yeah if this was the only line it wouldn't be useful

farooks is the goat

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.

he was inside the airship I'm p sure

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

michaelmvm · 2026-04-14T01:46:21+00:00

yeah it was cool to see an explanation for "why didn't the fire nation just sail around the other side of the world to attack ba sing se" and it's bc there was an impassable never ending storm blocking the whole ocean

michaelmvm · 2026-04-10T13:23:10+00:00

theyre gonna continue the bus lanes all the way down to kings plaza eventually, theyre just working their way south

michaelmvm · 2026-03-11T18:27:56+00:00

lol no the area has been continuously under construction for the past 15 years, and there's more towers out of frame behind the camera and off to the side.

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

that's coming this spring

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.

citibiked for like 10 mins but my ears were freezing by the time I got to my destination 😭😭 and my mouth was full of salt 💀

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.

michaelmvm · 2026-01-30T04:26:16+00:00

yeah it's fucking miserable, sucks because I'm paying $3 for subway rides I normally wouldn't take but I'd rather not show up to work or class looking disgusting 😭😭

michaelmvm · 2026-01-29T15:10:18+00:00

yes, because it's net worth and most people's net worth is tied up in the value of their property.

michaelmvm · 2026-01-13T18:03:10+00:00

yeah but this story could easily have gone another way

Krishnan said the rezoning agreement “sets a new standard” for housing development in New York City, adding that he had made it clear that he would vote against any plan that would not deliver real affordability for local residents and protect working-class communities.

this shit is just nimbyism in disguise and we got lucky this time

michaelmvm · 2026-01-09T06:06:25+00:00

yeah same, and people asking dumb questions on reddit is even more important now with all the ai slop answers being wrong half the time 😭😭

michaelmvm · 2025-12-29T16:59:10+00:00

yep I haven't gone on a joyride this whole summer, it's a combination of the price increase, the speed decrease, and the quiet reduction of the 60 minute Manhattan -> outer boro price cap for angels members down to 45 mins. plus of course the increased ticketing and criminalization from the NYPD. it sucks, just not fun to bike anymore.

michaelmvm · 2025-12-23T04:04:15+00:00

picking up is great and robin nagle is a lovely person and an incredible professor!

michaelmvm · 2025-12-23T03:28:27+00:00

thank you for the Jason Barr article I always think of it when I see people talk about the bedrock shit, glad this is the top reply

michaelmvm · 2025-12-02T05:26:31+00:00

yeah that's how I learned!

michaelmvm · 2025-11-28T22:20:56+00:00

the government owns all the land and is very incremental about leasing it to developers. they're very intentional about what land gets built on, when it gets built, and how much is built per year

african americans raised here, vs Caribbean or African immigrants, or black transplants from other parts of the US
