  1. Rush is getting his karma but is still owed more. Fuck cancer and fuck rush more, he deserves pain.
  2. Need a lot more of this, don’t let any republican sleep well as long as they Support a racist piece of shit.
  3. I’m starting to think you are a bad person
  4. voted. day drinking is fun.
  5. You rightly laugh but growing up near Braker lane, we always stayed inside during a storm that had lightning. Stay away from trees and lie down flat if the hair on the back of your head starts to rise up. From my folks, and elementary, junior high, to high school, you see lightning and you get your ass inside since it can strike from miles away. But living in nyc, no one gives a shit. You still got to get home from wherever, reach the train from work, get groceries, grab a beer, or come up out of the subway to lightning everywhere and it feels wierd as hell since everyone is just outside walking. And with big ass metal umbrellas too.
  6. Catching up, So haven’t read thread but I hope not. A populace that trusts in its police force is a good thing. Right now we don’t bc they haven’t it. I hope they do and we get to a better place as a nation
  7. Wait, what? Link? edit: just seeing the Kenosha shooting, so fucked up.
  8. welcome to every new yorker in march, which is now 5 months behind reality. feel free to catch up. i don't mean that in a pedantic way, it is just the reality of the world we live in now. IF WE HAD quick accurate tests, we could change things but having a fast result means we can get on with life. without it, means draconian shutdowns and collapsed economies in our home state. we're texas, fuck everyone else. lets get the tests and do this right.
  9. Welp, know where I’ll be tomorrow then. Thanks!
  10. Wait, what? Really? Thought that was one time. More than that, not sure how’d they pay that. So anyone who was on UI then still checks in on their state site for a weekly $450 bump?
  11. What’s the consensus on bulleit 12 rye and 10 bourbon? Can’t find the redemption wheated but found those two and sorta remember Good reviews on here but couldn’t exactly recall. Thanks in advance!
  12. that sucks, hope he has a speedy recovery and all goes well for him and your daughter. fuck cancer
  13. 2 miles is a good distance for some folk, depending on where they live. You don't have to answer, but fair to assume that walk/hill were not as difficult before covid?
  14. I know he hasn't played in a year, but is that weight accurate? He can't really play at that weight, right?

    You need to toughen up. Fuck, 32 degrees is not cold. Y’all are some billy bad asses! To be fair, 32 would be warmer to what I was describing. But honestly, what’s the clothing procedure? Running outside for exercise is new to me so for now it’s just shorts, tshirt and staying away from people. And when it’s really cold, walking the pup more than a half hour just seemed to suck (Besides i had the gym so why bother). do you use gloves, ear covers, long sleeve and long johns under shorts? Or prefer the same summer gear?

    You run outside when windchill is in the single digits or when it stays below freezing for weeks at a time? Congrats, I can't do that.

    So y'all mask up for lifting? Skip the aerobic/running/bike machines? NYC still closed but not sure I'll go back since I have kettlebells arriving in a week or so and been running outside since March. Who knows what I'll do when it gets cold but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.
  18. Got damn, Talk about a good flick from my formative years .. just hesitant to call it old school but I guess that also applies
  19. Queens report, need to look up the recent cases/hospitalization trends but after 2 big bars got shut down, the last week or so has been relatively calm. Sheriffs are out again in force and even the eastern euros are trying to be less rowdy. Looks like Stein-AMi got shutdown. ... at least as of 930pm
  20. Saw this at my local hole in the wall (priced in the mid $50s I think), the story itself is pretty cool. Was it worth it? It was the same place I saw the BT kosher bourbon/rye and today no wheated but they did have a rum finished Redemption. Not sure how good any of those are but they are definitely unique considering the type of shop it is.
  21. God forbid the worst happens, from an economic and purely selfish standpoint, what’s the Immediate effect on the global/USA economy?
  22. Reminds me of a tweet (I think) where it basically says: Time traveler from the future: Has it happened yet? Am I too late?! Me in 2020: You'll have to be more specific!
  23. Yeah, no. To be fair I haven’t been in the city since March but there have always been a shit ton of mentally unstable people in nyc. And in queens since March, I have not noticed a higher number. Morning rush hour, midday, after work gets out, all the time it was possible in the city pre-CoVID. If they are sticking out more now, it COULD but not necessarily be explained by the fact that there are less “normals” going out so the people who need help are just not blending into the background. now, are there more people on the edge whom CoVID pushed over? Maybe, can’t definitively say no to that but I have not seen a higher number of them in the streets near me. I’ll be honest, the tweeter sounds like a sheltered individual but I don’t know her from Adam (Eve?). There’s always random but not necessarily crazy shit going on. i will say there is a fair amount of pent up energy but unlike other years when that same energy would manifest in fights and crazy shit in early June and then be done, this year it’s more a slow constant release. It feels like different pockets of society are letting loose at different times so it’s like a slow roll of people just wanting to feel alive instead of one big universal valve release of “fuck the winter it’s summer and let’s feel alive!”
  24. LOL, just walked by some of the trouble areas, sheriffs out in FORCE. Still early but crowds/people almost somber. Going to a bar nearby to see the fireworks unfold. Or not. People need a release but also to be safe. I hope we find a medium that allows for safe partying but who the fuck knows what that is. Fuck this virus
  25. As I’m sitting outside on broadway now At Salvatoria, a HUGE blm bike protest is rolling through. Probably 5k strong. But everyone is wearing masks so that is nice
