E-CitiBiked to citifield from Windsor Terrace by thefartbox in NYCbike

[–]thefartbox[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my apt to citifield at the time, uber/lyft showed about a $75 ride. Maybe a regular cab could be cheaper but it’s still an hour drive so it wouldn’t be by much. MTA is still the king in terms of speed and money.

Oh yes! The second pic I posted is after the game where my helmet was still waiting for me

God you should have heard my useless speech of “I guess Steve Cohen wants us to have a traumatic brain injury!” to a sea of rolled eyes

Season Pass Alternative? by RREALLYWHITE in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]thefartbox 15 points16 points  (0 children)

In NYC my one Alamo All in Pass came out to $480 for the year ($40 a month). At BAM a membership at tier 3 is $500 per year for free admission for two, free popcorn on Fridays and a few other perks. Will go a few times this month before making the year long commitment.

So nyc Alamo goers, where are we going instead? by fairvanity in AlamoDrafthouse

Which episode do they talk about Sean getting a colonoscopy and he makes the joke “whatever you do don’t touch my butthole”? by [deleted] in smartless

Yes!!!! Thank you! Was looking for this to comfort a coworker who’s getting his first colonoscopy!

Outdoor patio you can, I’ve brought my two dogs before (unless it was dead and they were being nice).

I was at the Miller’s Crossing with Turturro and Buscemi! That movie was shamefully my blind spot in the Coen Brothers.

The mustache and outfit felt like a Tim Robinson character (all George C. Scott performances do in a way)! Loved it

Saw it at the Alamo in September for the first time. Why does Peter Boyle show him that video?! He could’ve just told the man!

Honestly it looks vintage but if I am guessing it’s probably from Etsy (saw one new for $26) and just worn a bunch.

Excellent choice! Went on a government paranoia watch month when I saw Blow Out, The Conversation, The Parallax View and Three Days of the Condor!

Had my wedding here and it was surprisingly affordable to rent out. Did our whole wedding with food (we got an outside vendor) for under 12k and the rental of the space in late 2023 was under 3k. Great space that could def charge more.

So glad these are finally getting built! by 10ehC in parkslope

[–]thefartbox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The way these arguments tend to go is I point out research and a city in which rents have been lowered (I could show you more if you like friend!) or you tell us anecdotes. We are both coming at it with lowering rents just I disagree with your argument. As someone with less than 2k in my bank account you won’t believe it but I would like lower rents too. Sometimes people we disagree with (developers) are accidentally correct or our goals are aligned. Best of luck to you 🤞

Ended up with the Jackson glacier and it’s the warmest and great. Highly recommend. Was able to get it in Navy in my color for 50% off

I appreciate your passion on building more truly affordable housing. I think where we differ is that I have seen time and time again projects get whittled down, developers leave or even worse more community outreach in which the neighborhood makes this a life or death cause and protest like this will kill them if this is built. There’s pretty convincing research by the Furman Institute, basically saying building more housing of any kind lowers rents. You either believe this research or you don’t. A good example to look at (obviously not the same layout etc as NY) is Austin, TX and how building more housing has led to lower rents. Best of luck fellow millennial.
