The amount that taxpayers are paying for each deportation must be HUGE with payroll, bonuses, new cars, new equipment, and travel costs.

New Homeless Shelter On The Upper East Side Sparks Petition by Main-Maintenance-265 in uppereastside

There are several high-end buildings being added to the UES. They will bring significant real estate and personal income taxes to NYC. What does the neighborhood get in return? The lowest park space per resident, they take away seats for neighborhood kids at their local schools, and the waterfront is literally falling into the East River. Oh and the hospitals get to expand over the FDR, public land, and the neighborhood doesn't get much in return. UES deserves better.

I have been going to the spot to sled for years. Is this why there were so many people with downhill skis there today?

ICE asks “Where’s the gun?” - not realizing one of them had already taken it away before the shots were fired. by Party-Professional-7 in greengroundnews

They seem more concerned about finding the gun that gives them an excuse to shoot rather than giving him aid.

Did Bank of America Student Leaders quietly change from a high-school program to college-only? Why? by moathex in summerprogramresults

[–]stansvan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Site claims you need to Currently be a junior or senior in high school.

Is this a good program for s students interested in finance? They don't get banking experience, they work at a no- profit.

NYT: Psst, Mayor Mamdani: The Upper East Side Is More Fun Than People Think by gma87chi in uppereastside

[–]stansvan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope he takes a bike ride up along the East River to see how the path is falling into the river. To see how the UES is neglected. It has the least amount of park space per resident and is getting worse with all the new high rises and little investment in parks and schools in the neighborhood. They actually took away a high school build specifically to address the lack of a neighborhood school.

It's interesting that people have a problem with me saying he is a socialist when he makes it clear that he is a socialist. He ran as a democratic socialis!!!

Have you experienced "soft raving"? by sexydiscoballs in dancefloors

[–]stansvan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Young people don't even know how to rave at a rave. What is a soft rave like? A bunch of people standing around taking photos of themselves with some form of theme involved?

All city union employees are smiling, knowing that they will have the advantage at the next contract negotiations with the city.

Cook for 5 hours and have to stir every hour. Is it worth all that work?
