@Boenau "The bike dock right outside the last station on the R train is full of parked bikes a little after morning rush hour! How could this have happened??"
@xolotltolox Yeah a good litmus test is "does the word refer to a sci-fi type gadget invented in the last ~100 years" and if the answer is yes then MAYBE you get an acronym etymology
Calling it "East Village" instead of "The East Village" means everything this guy says can be completely disregarded. Utter TikTok transplant StreetEasy-speak dreck. Historically untethered and aesthetically impoverished. Hope your phone gets taken next time.
A hobo tried to steal my phone in East Village and ran after me tonight. I ran into the nearest pizza shop and the owner said he does this every night on the block. He wouldn’t go in the pizza shop cause the owner beat him last time he tried that. He just stared at me for 10 minutes through the window like he was ready to chase me if I went outside.
Shop guy said he just got out of Rikers. For the last decade he’s been in and out of jail. Whenever he’s free he harasses people in Alphabet City. I called the cops but they couldn’t do anything other than rough him up and tell him to get lost.
This guy and a few hundred people like him are terrorizing New Yorker’s and we let them roam free. At best they’re sent to Rikers for a few weeks before the DA drops charges.
We need to throw people like this into prison and throw away the key. No more in-and-out no more social workers no more selling EBT for alcohol. These people can’t be fixed.
@theraggedwood@RCasp3r79@Nomads4Pritzker Lmao do you think that similes are used to rigorously qualify the exact properties of the subject being described? Would you prefer she had said "we were slick (Friction coefficient 𝜇 = 0.05)"? Christ, it's an awkward phrase but have you ever read literary fiction before?
I'm kind of tearing up thinking about how poignant this video will be once they're both gone. The perfect commemoration. We'll have a lot of fun with it
I'm hard at work on my debut novel which will be a FUNNIER and WEIRDER book about the dark curdling of political ideals and proliferation of America's living dead and twinned psychic journeys of rejection and abandonment among redwoods. Main difference? My redwoods ain't foghung.
Funniest and weirdest book about the dark curdling of political ideals and proliferation of America’s living dead, twinned psychic journeys of rejection and abandonment among the foghung redwoods, the fascist threat and the stupefying supremacy of screens. Must be read twice!
@hthginkb Seeing a funny tweet make it out of the drafts only to flop is like watching a baby bird try to fly and plummet to the ground below I’m gonna be sick
