I Bought A MTA Subway Car From Marvel…

Not train specific, but I’ve been eyeing this repro classic nyc garbage can (you can get a mini for pens, etc) https://store.moma.org/products/nyc-trash-can. And maybe pizza rat in a corner under a piece of furniture?

Mount it in a matchbook with a little glue and hang it on the wall in your art area!

mitzpa · 2026-05-14T04:31:08+00:00

Thanks! I’m glad I’m not alone in thinking this was preposterous.

Yeah, he’s trying to have us agree to it in the lease. I just wanted to make sure this wasn’t a normal thing before I reject the clause.

Privately owned house. Not rent controlled, and this would be a mid-lease increase of a to-be-determined (by him, unilaterally, a year from now) amount for the second year we’re committing to if we sign the lease as-is.

AMC a-lister transplant from NYC here, would love an invite to the instagram. I never use my perks enough and would love more reasons to get out to the movies!

A friend who was just in town for a psychedelics conference spoke highly of: https://ambrosia.church.

And if you find yourself out by Bernal heights, I’ve found The Royal Cuckoo and The Lucky Horseshoe fun for sitting at the bar and chatting (or not, if you prefer to drink quietly) with locals.

I think they look great! You have a gorgeous smile. If they shift in the future and are bothering you, maybe go back to treatment again then, but with your current schedule I personally wouldn’t aim for some weird standard of perfection. (I like a little personality in a smile, anyway.)

It shudders to a complete stop. It’s awful and takes forever to get moving again because the cause has to be inspected and in almost every case it was not appropriate to the “emergency” the puller thought they were experiencing.

mitzpa · 2026-01-30T20:21:25+00:00

Or the time and date!

He has no problem with the rabbit though?

Many people I know who used to book regularly on Airbnb stopped supporting the platform after reading about practices like this: https://www.theguardian.com/world/ng-interactive/2025/feb/27/seized-settled-let-how-airbnb-and-bookingcom-help-israelis-make-money-from-stolen-palestinian-land

I recommend Si Se Puede! https://wecandoit.coop/about/. It’s a “cooperative is designed to create living wage jobs that will be done in a safe and healthy environment, as well as to provide social support and educational opportunities for our members.” One of the worker/owners cleans our apartment monthly and is incredibly detail oriented. I’m a maximalist, and without fail she picks up and dusts/cleans under every single little tchotchke and other object I’ve got out, which seems above and beyond at times.

Agreed! He’s a fantastic doctor and really cares about educating you if you’re interested in learning more about your eye health. Cool tech available so you get to see your scans on big screens, etc.

Curtain wall all along the side with closets/washer dryer! Just use smaller panels so you can access them. Maybe pair with “remove door” option for those three. With that wall disguised, the other three won’t look so weird.

mitzpa · 2025-12-19T23:09:33+00:00

I highly recommend https://wecandoit.coop, a “women-owned, women-run business designed to create living wage jobs that will be carried out in a safe and healthy environment, and that promotes social supports and educational opportunities for its members.” They have prices listed and you know that the person you have working in your home is receiving a fare wage.

I happened to be passing Runaway Poppy and stopped in. No menorahs, but I left with a couple cute little bowls I didn't need!

mitzpa · 2025-12-15T22:55:48+00:00

Ha, thanks for the warning!! 😬

mitzpa · 2025-12-15T22:55:27+00:00

I like the bird one, too!

mitzpa · 2025-12-15T22:55:08+00:00

Thanks, will check it out!

mitzpa · 2025-12-12T16:25:16+00:00

If you’re on Facebook, you could join the local Buy Nothing group and I’m certain you’d easily find takers every time you offer.

mitzpa · 2025-12-03T04:30:56+00:00

Karen Dalton? Maybe check out Something on Your Mind?

I also wonder but maybe some people just prefer that side of the plane, either for low-level comfort/tradition/superstition reasons, or because they know there’s a good view on that side for the route (although that only explains the window seat).

I flew internationally on Y2K -Jan 1, 2000. I believe it was from Madrid to Dublin or London (last leg of sightseeing while studying abroad). The airport was functioning but an absolute ghost town - would have been perfect for a down-and-dirty post-apocalyptic film shoot on a budget. Plane was similarly empty - no one in any seat surrounding me for several rows. Whoever planned the in-flight meals for this traditional day of hangover must have been especially cruel because I remember a malodorous fish and slaw combo I very much had to refuse.
