There's a pizza place across from my office on 35th that has slices for $.99 and two slices and a soda for 3. These type of places haven't gone extinct.

The most unsafe thing about that station is the copious amounts of construction they're doing and one set of stairs that is open on the southbound side.

Yeah, this makes me really uneasy for the no door reason. I do hope there is a way to close the doors or activate a divider if there is a problem.

It is an illegal immigration problem. People visit and overstay their visas and just blend in all the time. People bring their families over.
Not everyone is an asylum seeker - I sympathize with people wanting better lives, but there are plenty of citizens who we need to provide with better lives first. NYC does not have the resources.

Then billions should be granted. But Texas is getting, for example, and using Federal money (they used plenty of coronavirus aid for migrant purposes) and places like NYC are getting the money from taxpayers.
I don't know why people automatically think NYC is a-ok with illegal immigration. But border states are spending their own money to stick it to other states.
NYC gets plenty of illegal immigration. Also, border states in the south cry about having illegal immigrants but who is employing these people? Why are employers not cracked down on for employing people for cheap labor? I'm all for something being done but it has to be comprehensive. Sending migrants up north to "stick it to the libs" while illegal immigrants are employed to do labor nobody else wants to do isn't going to help anything or anyone.

There needs to be a solution. But to act like NYC doesn't have an illegal immigrant issue is also wrong. It's not like these people being bussed here are the only illegal immigrants here.
I'm totally fine with migrants being sent here as long as we get Federal help - because right now NYC taxpayers are footing this bill. And we already pay more into the tax system than, say, people in Texas.

Washington Heights to the top of Inwood - you can find some good stuff, especially around the Ft. George area. I'm also not an outlier.

Don't they get federal resources deal with it? Also NYC also has an illegal immigration problem... they just come on planes and quietly stay.

Honestly, good. And why these people are getting priority for shelter ahead of services for our homeless citizens is beyond me. I realize we have a lot of homeless who refuse help, but the city needs to try harder before throwing all of our money at these people. I want to help them, but when they start making demands and refusing to leave, my patience as a taxpayer runs really short.

They don’t have to be. Drag is not inherently sexual. Literally it’s just men dressing as women.
If you have concerns, don’t send your kids. Simple. Other parents should be allowed to raise non bigoted children the way they would like.

Well, if they've ever let their kids see a clown or theater, etc., they're hypocrites. Drag is not always sexual and has been around since at least ancient Greece...
And, frankly, people have the right to not allow their kids to go to drag story time. They DO NOT have the right to keep other parents from sending their children or to keep it from existing.

It’s a fun way for kids to pay attention to a book. Added benefit is it exposes kids to diversity in a way that shows them something new. But like a clown, etc., it is a performance. You’re overthinking it.

Maybe? I’m not saying they shouldn’t. But the poster was making the point to imply that drag queens prey on children and are sexual deviants, which is bigotry full stop and not true.
But these people are READING to kids. Not sure what people think happen at these story hours but it just shows their own preoccupation with sex.
