He’s opening it so that people can get amazing panoramic city views for free rather than paying 30 or 40 bucks to go to 30 rock or the Empire State building. King shit

You have to draw the line somewhere! If you weren’t kvetching about this marginal call under this rule you’d be kvetching about whatever is marginal under a different rule.

A true layup for the ADL which will say nothing about this because Greenblatt is a Kapo.

It's unfortunate that Indiana Jones was radicalized by the radical left media into obstructing and harassing federal agents who are simply performing their duty.

Offside's offside. You can score with your shoulder.

It's position of any part of the body legal to use. If you stick your hand past the last defender it's not offside.

The scam PAC Democrat grifter operations have to end. ActBlue needs to do some minimal vetting of these entities raising funds under their name.

I saw my third cousin (who is very famous) at a coffee shop downtown but he seemed busy so I didn’t bother him.

It’s wild to me how this discussion is always framed as β€œwe shouldn’t take away someone’s livelihood for making an awkward comment” and then you read what the person actually did & its β€œpointed to her crotch & told the customer β€˜suck it’

I am once again re-upping my most rock-solid NYC prediction, that the BQE will fall down within my lifetime.

If I’m understanding these ppl correctly, all it takes to deter lethal and sexual violence is an almost-never-enforced $2.00 cover charge?

That seems like a far more efficient solution to crime than Musk’s Personal Robot Stalker.
