Reply to MTA unveils new sleek, high-tech subway cars — here’s what lines are getting them by nemoid
The other night I got on the train twice and there were a few cars with homeless people sleeping in them, a violent guy kicking at the doors and threatening to fuck people up, and the smell of shit lingering strongly in the air.
Now obviously most trips aren’t like this, but it happens. And when it does, you can just move over to a different car. With open gangway cars, however, it’s going to be a bit harder to do that, no?
I never understood the appeal and reason for them, but if that’s going to be part of the subway experience, it’ll be interesting to see how it plays out - for better or for worse.

Imagine looking forward to the birth of your child for almost a year, only for them to die during a nurse’s strike at the hospital they were born in. Something that was completely avoidable is now a tragedy.

That was yesterday for me. It was one of the most energized days I’ve had in a while.
This overcast weather is awful. Why are there more clouds in the winter anyways?

Did you also get a flu shot? I haven’t gotten the flu since I was 12 and now I’m worried I’ll get it.

Looks nice! Will they extend the sidewalk as well?

Kachapuri has really great Georgian food for cheap prices. That entire area in Midwood feels like you’re in a different country in general. South Brooklyn is slept on big time. A lot of transplants couldn’t care less about it. Oh well, more cheap food for the rest of us that give a shit.

Reply to Biting the Bullet and Driving in the City by _Haverford_
Just drive. I grew up in Jersey too and driving here felt like nothing if you’re used to driving in Jersey (and the Northeast in general, in dense and busy areas along 95).
