In a month's time, NYC went from
📈 having a summer for the history books
to
📉 having the plagues *from* the history books

[Complex @Complex]

NYC really has everything going on right now 😭

• Wildfire smoke hurting air quality
• A parasite outbreak linked to contaminated food
• Legionnaires’ disease cases under investigation

I deeply resent that AI has forced me to eliminate em dashes from my writing for fear of signaling slop

@NYPDnews @NYPDPC @NYCMayor @USCG For clarity re: the "public viewing areas" for the morning aerial show -- are those listed entrances the only places to WATCH? Or just ENTER? In other words, once we enter from, say 24th St, can we station along other parts of the Hudson?

“So often this city comes together because we are forced to, by a moment of tragedy or adversity, what a gift it is to be brought together by pure unfiltered joy.”

@C_Sommerfeldt @BOENYC Either you vote early or you get a decent spot at the parade. But you likely can't do both...

NYers are always at their best when things are at their worst — they rise to the occasion and reconnect with their community. Hell, one of my best city memories was the Aug'03 blackout.

This one's different. We get to bond over something really, really wonderful. LGK!! 🏀

"It is different because New York’s mass unifying events tend to imply unbearable tragedy: 9/11, Sandy, Covid.

Maybe the disorientation of this championship run was that shared experiences in the city were allowed to be good, gleeful, uncomplicated." https://t.co/L5dRPXqh33

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 53 YEARS, THE KNICKS ARE NBA CHAMPIONS 🏆

New York defeats San Antonio 4-1 in the NBA Finals, capturing their third championship in franchise history!

The Spurs know how to TAKE the lead, they just don't know how to HOLD the lead. And that's really the most important part of the lead: the holding
