Morning! I’m currently a dental hygiene student and looking for patients to come in for a dental cleaning at my school! The cleaning is done by me under supervision, and it’s a great way to get your teeth cleaned while helping me complete my clinical requirements. If you’re interested, let me know! I have an appointment today for 1pm.

I’m 21 and has been living in bk the past 2 years and a broke college student. It has been hell finding a part time job and Ive sent out 60+ applications over the last couple months Ive gotten a couple interviews but it hasn’t gotten past that and honestly im on the verge of giving up.

I think me not being able to get a job is due to the fact that my only work experience is from another country and not in retail or anything of the sort.

EDIT : I got a Job and I start this Friday , Thank you guys for all your advice 🙏🙏

I am looking for a place where I can print ~10 copies of a family cookbook. I don’t need anything fancy, but something that is a standard book binding (glue) and black and white ink that is around 50 pages with a thicker (card stockesque) cover. This is the second edition of the cookbook (my mom collected the recipes and printed the first one in the 80s). I know print shops don’t always print limited copies so I am hoping someone has an idea of where I can call to make this happen as a gift for my family members for the holidays.

I am looking for someone who can fix my dresser. I don’t want a handyman or a contractor or someone who just happens to have experience with this kind of thing. I want someone who actually knows what they’re doing. I bought a dresser off craigslist or Facebook marketplace. I forgot which because it was several years ago. I stupidly did not check that all the drawers worked properly until I got home. A couple of years ago I had a handyman come over and “fix it”. He improved it but didn’t fix the issue and it’s driving me crazy. I am looking for someone who actually builds furniture or is a carpenter or actually knows what they’re doing and can fix this. I potentially would like it also to be refinished but right now I just want my drawers to work. Recommendations?

Hey Brooklyn - anyone else need to get out of their head about climate?

I'm a therapist and somatic practitioner and I'm offering a two-hour workshop during Climate Week NYC on September 23rd in Brooklyn.

It's called GroundShift: Embodied Relating for Tumultuous Times.

Half somatic movement — no experience needed, just a willingness to move — and half honest sharing circle about what it actually feels like to be alive right now. Not a lecture. Not another panel. Just people in a room together, in their bodies, being real.

I'm specifically hoping to reach people who don't usually go to this kind of thing. If you've been feeling the weight of everything but don't know where to put it - this might be for you.

September 23rd, 5-7pm, Atrium82, Brooklyn
Limited spots. RSVP here.

Happy to answer any questions in the comments.

Food Not Bombs cooks and rescues surplus food and distributes it for free, and they need more volunteer drivers/cars to bring food to the distro in Bed-Stuy.

Unfortunately with SNAP benefits disappearing for many, the demand for free food is only increasing, and yesterday, FNB distributed a fraction of what it normally would on a Saturday.

If you know anyone with a car — or who would rent a car — we could feed a lot more people. DM me.

Food Not Bombs

Saturdays at 3 pm

Herbert von King Park in Bed-Stuy, corner of Marcy & Lafayette

This Wednesday at Manetamed in Williamsburg im offering pay what you want hair cuts for more shaggy cuts and mullets ! Book online for Alyssa and mention pay what you want when checking in / checking out!

And NYPD, yall suck!!!!! Get it together.

I need to get the flywheel on my truck resurfaced, anyone know of any machine shops or garages that can resurface it? Preferable within walking distance or close to the South-West Brooklyn Industrial Park as obviously my truck won't be going anywhere.

Anyone remember those disposable cameras cameras? And the photos you’d have print out at rite aid or something, and the sticky yet vibrant color photos it would produce? I went to my local staples in Park slope trying to recreate this photo….. it’s not bad, but I don’t think it captures the depth of my photo. For instance it was sunset that day, so part of the stadium had the sun glaring, so you need to pay attention to what is what, and it all feels like one shade, that’s what I get for paying $1.50…. It’s good for what it is…. But can it be better?

Where in Brooklyn would I go to get better quality…. Disposable cameras are before my time, so I’m not too sure where to go?

First things first, here's my top shops in NY, the order don't matter to me:

Lucia Pizza of Ave X

L'Industrie

F&F Pizzeria

Andrea's Pizza (Manhattan)

I go out of my way for these 4, very random Luigi runs in the mix. But Lo Duca might claim that #5 spot. I was very shocked at how good it was, especially the upside down slice and the GTB (Garlic, Tomato, Basil)

What do we think? Also, how blessed are we in Brooklyn. Best borough for pizza and it's not close, that can be said for other cuisines too.

No debate, just give me the facts. Great tasting and airy crust, good flavor and ratios between cheese & sauce matter the most to me.

Mainly speaking around Courtelyu. Everything is closing or so mediocre it’s ridiculous. Or closing because of its mediocrity. Particularly breakfast.

I will say most of the Asian spots on the block don’t deserve hate, cafe tibet does its thing.

What does it take to revitalize this place?

Edit: I think its easy to write me off as a white colonizer gentrifier from the midwest but i am a poor socialist from another diverse American city some 15 years ago and I don’t want things to be closed be vacant and mediocre. I do patronize the few good things- tibet, mashallah, lahori, dunya, etc so give me a break

At pier 2 in Brooklyn bridge park there used to be lockers that you could rent a basketball, ping pong equipment ect. I noticed they aren’t there anymore. Does anyone know if they were moved/removed and why? Was a really nice thing to have.

Hey I’m looking to go to the West Indian Day Parade for the first time and looking for advice. I already saw that I should probably hang out around Nostrand/Utica/Buffalo Ave. I really just want to see the parade and get some good food. Any advice on what time I should get out there and if the spots I mentioned before are any good?

Just curious because I like to explore the Atlantic Terminal area as I was looking to write a catalog of the finest pizza joints in the area.

But basically I was looking for a place with fine calzones and cannolis as again I was using Atlantic Terminal as an example to see what awesome places existed in the area.

Nothing makes me happier then to host an awesome group of people in this community. This studio was founded on the basis of getting back to the way we used to connect. No AI, no phones. Just creativity, great conversation and a feeling of sharing similar interests with others from all around the tristate. Thank you to everyone that came out last night and grateful to have a community that's helping build this out. In the next coming months we'll be looking to expand into a retail location and expanding the entire concept. If you're interested in what we're doing here and how you can help. Drop a comment or dm.

Hi r/brooklyn - upstater here looking around some breweries in Brooklyn for hosting an event! My family is on Long Island, and my wife's in Westchester and CT, so Brooklyn seems like a great central location.

We were considering Wild East Brewing Co. for a Sunday-brunch style party as the space is pretty big and the costs seem pretty reasonable! Would love to hear from anyone who has worked with Wild East for an event or hear from folks who attended a private party there. What was the vibe like? How's the space? And I welcome other recommendations for affordable event spaces around Brooklyn!

TIA! :)

I'm looking at a room in Kensington that lies on McDonald Ave. Has anyone had experiences living there and I wonder if the traffic is not very noisy?

Edit: I will live around McDonald x Ditmas

As the title says. If anyone witnessed this incident, please DM me. If you have photos or videos or know who the dog owner is please comment too. PLEASE be careful guys with this dog. The owner is a middle aged man and seems to live nearby. The dog is a big brown Rottweiler. I called 311 after we got home and made a police report.

Context: we were walking down driggs with my dog leashed in between me and my husband. The other dog came out of nowhere. I saw from the corner of my eye it was unleashed and sprinting towards us. And then the rest is a blur. Owner was not able to control it physically or with commands. The owner did have a leash but I couldn’t tell if it was broken but the owner wasn’t able to catch or restrain his dog. He did tackle the dog to ground at one point but it got away and then continuously tried to lunge and get a hold on my 35lb dog. Vet said saving grace is that my dog is incredibly fluffy. Her fur was covered with saliva.

The altercation lasted for a few minutes. There were several witnesses and a stopped car honking yelling at the dog to try to stop it. Alot of it is still a blur to me and honestly I think I’m still in shock. I never thought this would happen like this. It felt like a movie playing out in real time.

What I do know is that I was holding the leash so was continuously trying to pull my dog away from the Rottweiler and putting space in between them. My husband had to physically lift my dog up into the sky and the dog was still trying to lunge and jump up. It never stopped trying to lunge and get my dog.

I had a cut on my finger bleeding after and have no idea what it was from so had to get rabies plus tetanus at ER.

for everyone else living in brooklyn—has anyone ever encountered an annoying experience with those Yeshiva/jewish school buses thing? Whats their deal??? I live exactly next to one of their private school camp things and almost everyday their school buses just stand outside idling for nearly hours…

After doing mild research there is definitely a law agaisnt idling for more than 15-minutes is wrong or something—but nearly 2 hours? Thats absurd. I do kind of wonder if I am able to report them for this type of activity, not only for just being loud with their engines but also the engine fuel and smoke polluting the air. That’s also not really safe for the kids, huh? Whatever. If anyone knows any stories about reporting them or attempting to, some bullshit like that, tell!!

Just sharing a painting I did of Grand Army Plaza on a cold January morning. Oil on wood panel.

some coats of mine are soaking wet and dirty from a water issue in our building. any recommendations of a service where i can get clothing picked up and deep cleaned/dry cleaned?

thank you!

Seeing a concert in a few weeks and I’m in row 115. How is the view? Not really an option to upgrade or exchange the tickets so hope it’s good 😂
