That's to keep the trains from jumping the tracks and hitting people. Which with Amtrak is far more likely than a person jumping onto the tracks.

The escalators at Court Sq were down for like 4 months. Not even replacing, just repairing. I noticed they kept putting up new signs with different completion dates, and then eventually the signs just went away completely.
The escalators are still down about once a week.

Take your girl to the Home Depot parking lot after a night out at the Applebee's across the street. The 80's power ballad writes itself.

I dunno I didn't downvote you. Maybe people think you're implying we didn't need Javits. At the time we definitely needed anything that would get more vaccines out there. Personally I waited until I could get it in my neighborhood which was only a few days after my age bracket opened up.

And nobody with machine guns pushing you thru the line. I also got mine at a local pharmacy the first day I could. I was having a drink and the bartender told me they got vaccine next door. I said keep my tab open I'll be right back. 5 minutes in and out.

I kinda miss the R32s. The heating on them was amazing, even tho it was probably produced by straight up burning oil.

Boo hoo with your luxury building. I don't know why high rent should let you do whatever you want. Also sounds like he knew the rules when he got the dog.
I love dogs but the sense of entitlement amongst dog owners in this city is crazy.

I get a small thrill out of gesturing towards the exit door then stepping thru the turnstile on my way out.

Turnstile hoppers are one thing. But the vultures that just wait by the exit door are worse. Like bro if you're gonna skip the fare at least get off your ass and jump the turnstile. Lazy bitch. Also, a vast majority of people who don't pay the fare do so because they are assholes or because they don't have $3 to their name. I'm not helping either onto the subway platforms.

The last time we did something, like hold a free and fair election, there was death at the capital. Seems like it worked to an extent.

We're talking about the Nassau County republican party. Theyve called for his resignation, probably knowing it won't happen. But they were pretty aggressive. The RNC which he is now beholden to is far different.

It's a purple district. A special election is an almost certain win for Dems, flipping a seat in a very close house. No way Santos leaves on his own and very little chance he is forced in the next two years.

It's yet another failure of capitalism. There aren't a lot of incentives out there to entice a developer to put up a highrise full of actually affordable units. Instead we have miles of skyscrapers going up around the city that remain half empty.

I lived off the fucking J train for a while when the new cars with automated announcements came about. That's the only reason I know how to pronounce it. On the old cars where a person made announcements it was always Kahz-e-os-ko
