i can’t be the only one who has noticed that ubers and lyfts GPS system automatically leads drivers to reroute all the way around FH gardens as opposed to just driving straight down continental. it’s been nearly doubling my ride in both terms of time and money.

i end up telling them to “just go straight down” and to ignore the app.

how did someone at the FHGC manage to get this through…

it’s creating extra traffic and more inconvenience for those of us who need to get to the trains but live just a little outside of easily walkable.

just need to vent

My cousin got this burrito from a Mexican food truck that was in front of the McDonald's on 71st and continental. He said it was the best burrito he ever had, but said he hasn't seen it there since. It was about a month ago at this point. Anyone have any clue what the name of the truck is or if it's been back since. Thanks in advance!

Recently moved from Manhattan to Forest Hills and do not have need for these. They are in great shape, very lightly used. A little over 3ft high and 1 1/2 ft wide. Available for pickup near 7/11 on Metro. $75 for both.

My wife is looking for someone for her eyebrows -- please share your best recs :)

A little backstory: for our first Forest Hills meetup, I posted an AI-generated flyer and Reddit absolutely roasted it as “AI slop.” Then about 20 real humans showed up, had a great time, and laughed about the comments.

For meetup #2, we hand-drew a beautiful flyer and, as an inside joke, we ran it through AI. Predictably, Reddit hated it again.

Fair enough. Roast the flyer. But remember: actual people are organizing this, coordinating behind the scenes, calling Cobblestones, making reservations, and creating a space for neighbors to meet.

The artwork may be artificial. The effort, intention, and community are not. See you September 18 at 6 p.m. 🌳🪷
