I got a decision letter from unemployment today saying that they’re rejiggering my Pandemic Unemployment Assistance in the new year based on last year’s income. Since I didn’t make as much last year, my PUA is going to be reduced.

Look at these fancy fuckers and their spray paint.

I would argue that hating Bill de Blasio is the one thing that unites all people!

As the child of a father who died of COVID 3 weeks ago because of his own stupid decisions, I thank you for this comment. I am angry and hurt beyond words that not only am I mourning his sudden passing, but that it was his own choice to take risks that led to it. When I hear people say something like “I can’t feel…

What disturbs me about the emphasis on age and preexisting conditions as comorbidity factors is the not-so-subtle insinuation that it doesn’t matter if these folks die of COVID, because they’re a drain on society anyway. That’s why so many people flout the CDC’s recommendations. If they give the virus to some old fart…

From the start, people emphasizing pre-existing conditions/being old as a co-factor from dying from covid has left a bad taste in my mouth. When someone dies of covid and officials announce they also had a pre-existing condition, it means the rest of the population that views themselves as virile and omnipotent can…

It looks like you’ll have to file for the Recovery Rebate Credit when you do your 2020 taxes. That’s how people were answering this question for the last one, anyway.

You will need to complete the Recovery Rebate Credit when you file your 2020 taxes to receive the credit for your new dependent.

Here’s an idea: all body cam footage - from every police force in the country employing body cams - should be uploaded directly from the cameras to the cloud at regular, randomly-determined intervals throughout the day, and instantly accessible (and regularly reviewed) by independent local public watchdog groups.

It’s dumbasses. I work in wholesale alcohol in the NY metro area, my company is based in Brooklyn.

Spit into a tissue just like you would blow your nose into one-- see also, peeing & pooping into a toilet. 

This is the part that somewhat baffles me, I understand some can’t cook/won’t cook so external sources are needed. But rather than getting take out, they go out and risk the lives of others so they can eat. Is the desire to have a servant for just a short while so strong they are willing to sit in the snow just so…

Really taking the meaning of street food to heart. 

Maybe she wanted to feed her kids and keep a roof over their heads?

(1) Don’t have COVID-spreading weddings and don’t attend them. Just don’t.

I was supposed to have a wedding in March 2021, and for a while (over summer mostly) I kept thinking “well, if people don’t want to travel or attend, I completely understand, it is their choice.” But as the date crept closer and things only got worse, I increasingly grew uncomfortable with the ethics of holding a…

I’m sure Tish James could find somewhere for him and his family to stay in New York.

You should’ve run him over in the parking lot.

He broke with the Republicans like 2% of the time! He was a maverick!

Theory: She sheds are the natural response to the “open concept” house everyone thought they wanted but quickly learned meant “No place at all to get away to”.
