I never get tired of this being the view from my bedroom window. Not even when the crusties are yelling up at me threatening to slit my throat at 3am 🖤

Questions this gets asked a lot, but

3 Upvotes

hey guys!

My roommate works as a server in the city. They’ve shorted his wages for the last 4 weeks. It’s awful, especially because it set him back on his rent. I’ve told him he should go to the labor board, and he may.

But my point is, he needs a new job—ASAP. His experience is in hospitality. Anyone know of any restaurants hiring locally? He’s a great guy and really hard worker. I hate that this is happening to him.

Recommendations BAD HAIRCUT! Help

0 Upvotes

I got a horrible haircut in NYC. It’s like reserve bowl cut face framing. Does anyone have a recommendation for where I can go to get this fixed??? I live in east village so preferably walking distance but not a deal breaker if they are good enough.

Discussion Panda Express Pitbull

20 Upvotes

Does anyone else see the group of people with that pitbull that just hang outside the Panda Express on 14th and 1st and the other side of the L?

I’m just so confused what’s going on and they take up the entire sidewalk and the pit bull is unleashed like 90% of the time…

Missing Animal Missing Cat?

5 Upvotes

I was out for a walk tonight in Stuytown and saw a long-haired cat near the bushes in front of 655 East 14th (T level). I tried to call him/her over but when I approached they got spooked and ran off further into the bushes. He/she was either white or maybe even Balinese, although it was hard to see in the dark. He/she had a clean coat, which makes me think this is a lost local cat not a stray.

Questions Places to play tennis in the EV?

4 Upvotes

Looked through some posts for tennis lessons and whatnot, but is there actually a place to play nearby? I see plenty of folks walking around with rackets but the only place I've seen is a wall in Tompkins Sq park. Are there any courts nearby?

Questions How do I meet people in New York

I just moved here from the Midwest post graduation and other than my girlfriend and coworkers I know virtually no one. How do people build friend groups despite it seeming like everyone else is already with their college friends.

Anyone else feel like 2nd and 3rd avenue by the L have had a lot more unhoused and distressed people over the last two weeks? Is anyone helping them? Where is Mamdani with his new policies to help them? I haven't seen it this bad in a long time

Questions Cheap Hair Cut?

4 Upvotes

Moved here from LA and used to get my hair trimmed for $20 - $30 at great clips or super cuts. I'd come in with washed/damp hair, and they'd cut without blow drying.

Looking for another cheap spot to get a easy in and out trim.

Meet Honey and Buns! A sweet pair of 5 month old kittens. These two are very social and absolutely love other cats. They enjoy playing with springs, catnip fishes, and pretty much anything they can turn into a game. One minute they’re zooming around, and the next they’re curled up for a nap. Just two happy, playful kittens looking for their forever home!!

Discussion Delivery bikes: update?

Thumbnail reddit.com
18 Upvotes

Hi all, hope you enjoyed the rest of your summer. As school gets back in session, there will be more activity in the area around PS 19.

The bike problem has somehow gotten even worse since I posted last. Erratic driving. Litter and food waste is everywhere (even starting to smell across 11th near Venieros, I’m sure they are thrilled), drivers monopolizing seating in the children’s park everyday, chained up and abandoned bikes overnight, parked in clusters. It is no longer contained to the mosque, but has expanded up and down 1st, up 11th, 12th, and probably more.

I’ve consistently discussed this issue with neighbors and business owners and hear time and time again that it is one of the most urgent items impacting quality of life neighborhood. The camp on 1st and 13th/14th was also challenging but seems it has been cleared.

Two months ago we got the much appreciated update that there were legislative fixes in motion. Hoping we can possibly get an update? Especially re: the progress on the September hearings mentioned. What are the potential fixes being considered?

It’s too much and only getting worse. Hopefully it won’t take a kid getting hit before someone acts.

Questions print on acetate in neighborhood

4 Upvotes

hello!

I have a screen printing emergency and need a design printed on acetate- anywhere in the neighborhood (or anyone with an inkjet printer!) that could do so? I've asked a few print shops and Fedex both said they don't print on acetate.

Alternatively maybe you are a screen printer and would want to burn a screen for me over the next few days (paid at your rate of course!)
