It didn’t feel small when the buildings were there. Don’t let let footprint fool you, they were true skyscrapers and the way they were set made it feel like the top floors were above your head if you stood in between them and looked up.

I went to the pools for the first time last month and started having a panic attack, made worse by the giggling girls taking selfies with the north pool behind them. Strangely the guards were comforting. I watched one tell a woman to take her purse off of the wall as he pointed to the names etched out of them. In that

This shakes me more than any other comment. Broadcasters learned nothing from the WTC bombing in the 90's and most channels (everything but CBS) were still transmitted from there.

I’ve done the flaxseed method a few times with different pans. While I find it’s quite durable I disagree with that it’s non-stick. The last time followed all the directions, really made sure to only have a thin coat on there and it’s held up great. But what made the difference was three thin coats of olive oil baked

This comes up during open enrollment every year. There’s an age cap for colonoscopies with our health insurance and some people take issue with it, people over 70 get colon cancer. But the thin tissue of the colon gets even thinner with age and it’s been decided that without symptoms there’s a point when the screening

My mom’s block is alternate side 4 times a week, one side Monday/ Thursday the other Tuesday/Friday. We rejoiced when they reduced it from 3 hours to 1.5, but it’s still a nightmare.

I’m not going near the argument of whether homosexuality is a sin. This is your post so I will work off of your belief that it is.

JL is the only person who looks amused in this picture and I’m pretty sure that’s just his resting face.

Oh, please, please let them find Jade safe.

My mom was convinced that every female student at LaGuardia got raped in the staircases. I guess there was a case long before I was of high school age, but she acted like it was tradition. No audition.

My uncle who lives is Jamaica, Queens is of Jamaican descent and when I was little I was sad they didn’t let him live anywhere else.

Your quip is ridiculous. In my toolbox are screwdrivers, a combo square, a mallet and a bunch of other tools. If I need to make sure two pieces of wood are at a right angle I’ll pull out the combo square. Same to mark a straight line with a pencil, find the pitch of a roof or guide my circ-saw on a straight cut. It

No where in here do I see you blaming KG. I’m so surprised by the support for her on this site. I remember being excited when Michelle Obama gave us the wonderful line, that was echoed here and by democrats across the country, “when they go low, we go high.”

You honestly think normalization and glorification of violence doesn’t make it happen more? I think broad censorship of a style/genre is ridiculous, but we have to think about whether it’s okay to keep choosing to put violence on a pedestal as individuals.

Ideas are dangerous, but that doesn’t mean they can or should be censored. Censored ideas become even grander and more dangerous.

I’m jealous of your name. It is brilliant.

She can sing above a whisper, but it’s raspy. She can still bring all the emotion and the story in, but the clarity and range are gone.

I was incredibly lucky to work with her years ago and the first time she cursed I thought my world turned upside down. Then it happened so often it just became awesome. Those are the only time someone saying something was shit sounded like a compliment.

Orlando will surprise you, depending on what section you’re in. There are a lot of New Yorkers here :::raises hand::: and in southern FL.
