Drinking water in two bridges like I have cafe muffin money.
Yeah I'll buy a bagel.
I'll even buy a coffee.
Just give me the damn key.
I'm a hy hy hy hydrated roller.

Yes, and I once filmed some of my ants doing surgery on an ant with what was basically a club foot when she was a pupae so that when she emerged later she could walk. Here is the video:

ah. missed that spelling error.

My most common earworms:

"hormigas: hermanas hermosas"

"life it never die, women are my favorite guy"

What are yours?

"Appalachian Chupacabra"

Is a charming nickname for the right sort of person. Perhaps you know them? Help them find themselves and give them this name.

@MamaLake

... do you know how many "neighbors" I have. I have 10,000 neighbors.

But I will answer for the people on my floor.

@nguarracino

This is one of the easier parts of doing this for the city. The city has the parks, sidewalks, streets and many buildings and other places that it can use rent free. Likewise there are many existing toilets that are just... closed. Taking up space and no one can use them.

For the plumbing there is a RFP for ideas and some copying of what they are doing in other cities.

My major concern is long term funding.

@jacobyaudio

Well lets see if this is a big enough program.

Doing things in NYC means go big or go home. For this to have an impact it will need to have a secure funding source and it should take about a year or two to spin up.

I will be watching.

Some of the books are full of radicals.

I thought that "gaslighting" had to be saying things that makes another person feel upset because they don't think they can trust their own senses anymore. Doing it to make them feel helpless and a little crazy.

eg. "No you only have 8 fingers. Everyone knows this. Don't know know a finger from a thumb? Did you even go to school?"

@michael_w_busch

remarkable branding on that one

"Did you enjoy his opening party?"
"Oh. It was unforgettable."

What has become of the Radio Play!!

Strictly speaking "shade" should also cast the speaker in a better light, so that they are putting the other person in their shade.

It's a special and impressive kind of insult.

"I couldn't wear it ...but that lipstick is a big improvement for her, really anything is."

@LappenjammerDieZweite

No one wants to walk past or smell the works of those who can do without a facility either. Regardless.

I wish people would stop using "throwing shade" to mean just "disparage"

It's just a neat metaphorical kind of disparagement.

To throw shade you need to effortlessly, and blamelessly say something the re-casts a person's actions in a negative light. You cast shade over them, a change in lighting changes everything.

NOT SHADE: He's ugly and gross.

SHADE: It must be so hard for him: worrying all the time that we might find out that all of his money came from crypto.

Zohran is expanding the number of public toilets in NYC and improving how the existing ones are cleaned and maintained.

If this is a big enough initiative it will have a huge impact on quality of life for new yorkers. I don't know if it is big enough. Nonetheless *this* is the way to address the things that make people feel like the city is a dump. It's also just... civilized. IDK. How do you call it a city and you have no bathrooms?

Anyway welcome to communism.

But that brings us back to it being a sampling error.

There is some interaction between these common place and comforting falsies:

* More history keeps happening the closer you get to the present.

* The Decline of ...."

These are based in similar statistical issues. It's all sampling errors.
