a lot of standing water left this morning in the mid HV but nothing insane.



Yup. My basement was bone dry but my co-worker had 6 inches of water in hers. One good thing, Ida seems to have taken the horrible humidity with her when she hosed off, so that's a good thing for now!

who'd have thought building a train track at sea level along an estuary would backfire!

Haven't heard if Amtrak is making it but they literally share tracks most of the way so I cannot imagine.

So I'm definitely hoping there's someone else (Letitia James?) running, too, because an endorsement from Jay "Crazy loving Pro-Cuomo NYDems Mailing" Jacobs makes me positive she will continue the former's legacy.

AT LAST! A show with nonono commercials!

Remember when the Bedford Union Armory was redone and there was a community push to turn it into affordable housing? I remember bc I passed out leaflets for it in 20 degree weather in front of the Brooklyn museum.

Then councilwoman Cumbo did some kind of runaround and handed the project to developers who were VERY OBVIOUSLY gonna build luxury apartments there and when locals said "Wtf" they were shushed by Cumbo's strong assurances that the center would be affordable for everyone and wouldn't push out local residents

guess how that turned out?


quote:

The City Council member who backed plans to convert a Crown Heights armory into a recreation center charged Thursday the developers betrayed the community on discount access.

The facility, she declared, was “designed for the third wave of gentrifiers who are coming into the community.”

“It’s not going to be accessible to anyone in the neighborhood or anyone in the community. No one, no one’s going to have access,” she said.

“There are no affordable memberships for the community. There’s no accessibility. It was never designed for accessibility,” she added.

Cumbo tinged her strong words at times with sarcasm, coupled with frustration at questions about her role in approving the deal. At one point she snapped: “The armory doesn’t even exist…. The whole armory is an illusion. You win. You found it out.”

it keeps happening lol

quote:

Cumbo now says the Council has no leverage to improve the community benefits package — in part because no formal documentation exists.

“There is no agreement,” she said. “Nothing was ever written.”

oh well! Cya later bitches

quote:

Yet the Council member, who is term-limited out of office at the end of this year,

Have you managed to somehow miss the long line of people being not just tried but sentenced for 1/6-related crimes, after being arrested by the Feds?

So, it's not like they're getting people that matter, the Q Shaman and rando no body cops are quite a bit different from the union leader of the guys that make up the right wing death squad that police New York
