@MTA Someone is brazenly selling marijuana on the uptown 6 train - just left 33rd street. He’s just going through cars yelling out prices. Offering it out in the open.
@CindyDarrison@howiewolf@jefpollock Hey, there! Thanks! Sorry it took me so long to reply. Here's to a happy and healthy 2021. And please come on by for a haircut! I'd love to see you, CD! It's been too long.
@galeabrewer@jefpollock@howiewolf@galeabrewer ! Thanks! Sorry it took me so long to reply. Here's to a happy and healthy 2021. And please come on by and say hello, Gale! I always love seeing you.
@StevenACohen2 You bought the Mets and saved them! I bought @astorplacehair. Only my barbers don’t command the same salaries as your players; my guys are hurting. But we'd love to set up at the stadium to keep players groomed for after the games (and for victory celebrations that will follow!).
@migold I’m the lead guy who saved Astor Place. You’re the reporter who covered it was closing for the @nytimes , the only paper that didn’t cover its remaining open. How about checking us out after 1 month of ops and what’s to learn abt running this most iconic barbershop?
My favorite line from The National Review's editorial blasting Trump's pardon of Roger Stone: "No one would think of letting Roger Stone anywhere near any serious responsibility, and even the Trump campaign in 2016 had the sense to keep him at arm’s length."
@ChrisFalcinelli I think this was actually something Dave Krugman obsessed over. He loved Mel, loved "To Be or Not to Be", but pointed out at any given moment irrespective of whether it was germane that the M Brooks version was a word-for-word remake. Ask Ilise if that rings a bell? @iliseweiner
Yes, mortality is a lagging indicator. In April, however, NY's death rate peaked just three days after its case rate peaked.
AZ's infection rate has been spiraling for a month with no comparable increase in deaths.
This statistic is absolute, 100%, unmitigated B.S.
NY is low for two unflattering reasons:
a) The state excludes NH patients who died in hospitals from its NH death count.
b) Its COVID toll among non-NH patients has been extraordinarily high.

"New York’s quarantine will not apply to Yankees and Mets players returning to the area to complete spring training, which can begin on July 1," Mr. Cuomo said.
Pro tip: This new travel restriction is so arbitrary it couldn't possibly hold up in court.
As positive COVID tests spike, the number of deaths continues to decline.
This must be partly the result of wider testing, which is reaching younger and less symptomatic people.
Is this a typical pattern for pandemics?
