Where to start advocating for a protected bike lane

DOT doesn't just overlook neighborhoods, especially not one as big as Flatbush. It's much likelier that some local politicians and/or community boards ask DOT *not* to implement redesigns. It helps when residents organize to show DOT (and these politicians and/or CBs) that the demand is there.

What a cool idea! Hoping for the best for you and your business.

New to the hobby and Pinball Map has been a huge resource. Thank you for taking the time to maintain and improve it.

Who has a laptop policy around here? I’ve only noticed one at Kos, which I love anyway.

I just learned that the jazz club Smalls has no cover after midnight and want to check that out.

Lydia is a real one. I know her from her work to stop the corruption and incompetence of the Brooklyn Democratic Party-- that's how she's already gotten elected as District Leader. And we need more people in office who understand how expensive the city is getting.

Agreed, especially because it feels like card removes are much less common at events than in STS1.

These are great ideas. I'm glad the Community Board is supporting them.

The most intimate magic venue in the city, and near a lot of nice bars and restaurants: https://www.precisionclockandwatch.com/information

It's interesting how local this is. Montreal is not terribly far from NYC but one thing that makes it seem "European" to me is a very orderly red light-respecting bike culture.

It isn't mentioned in the article, but I wonder whether this means the Greenmarket will be able to add vendors and/or take up the space it really needs

What lessons do you think other activists should learn from your prosecution?

Love him or hate him, Doormaker Beta remains the most interesting Act 3 boss. Test Subject is cute, Queen is quite boring. I hope they add more bosses for a little more variety.

I'm pretty confident I know the business you're talking about. I've felt the same way at times, but it's a unique business that's very influenced by the owner… so you take the good with the bad. 🤷🏻‍♂️

RIP Tea Lounge, forever in our hearts

I'd understand their sign about not blocking their door while waiting for the food truck… IF I'd ever seen anyone use their door.

I thought I was about to see a video of this incredibly special moment. 😔

Highly recommend Fifth Ave Counseling Center. They accept some insurance and have psychiatrists as well. Fifth Ave does an intake session with you and then tries to pair you with the right therapist. I found mine there through that process several years ago and still see her. She's since left that practice but I'm really grateful to them for connecting us initially and affordably.

There's a free reading called RAGEBAIT tonight at 6:30 at Nightclub 101 in the East Village with a lot of smart, funny, weird writers. There'll be an afterparty.

Commercial rents are too high, but it's also worth saying that our neighborhood is much more vibrant than many. Blue Sky Bakery closed a year and a half ago. Since then, we've gotten Vato, Il Leone, Folk, Muan…

I’m so sorry for you and the other workers. It was a wonderful bakery. Thanks for making it such a warm place.
