xp I don't think that has ever happened. Perhaps the closest we've come was in 1967 when the Yankees were in 9th place out of 10 AL teams and the Mets were in 10th place out of 10 NL teams going into September. Both teams finished the season in those same places.

INBOX: @NYCMayor's office announces another 5% budget cut across all city agencies, citing concern about "financial disruption" from the migrant crisis."The administration will seek to minimize disruption to programs and services, and there will not be layoffs," City Hall says.— Chris Sommerfeldt (@C_Sommerfeldt) September 9, 2023

I don't know if it's dead but Eric Adams definitely sucks and everybody has COVID. Be careful out there. I'm currently strongly in the testing negative but feel like death is it just the heat or allergies or tapering off lexapro too fast or just plain COVID. One friend said he felt the worst the day before testing positive so I'm trying to be careful and will test again tomorrow morning.

Sorry for the Covid and also the tapering of meds; both a real mindfuck.
I like this rain though.

As your real estate agent I’d like to put you in 432 Park Avenue, which is unique in having empty floors interpolated between the regular floors so that wind can blow through the building, thus providing greater stability and less swaying.
Also it’s conveniently close to the Plaza Hotel, Central Park, and other attractions.
― Josefa, Saturday, 23 September 2023 00:41 (eight months ago) link
Good for an ambient wind + percussion project
― calstars, Saturday, 23 September 2023 00:47 (eight months ago) link
That’s good, bc due to availability issues I may have to put you in one of the empty floors

Are you one of those real estate agents that live out of town

Check the fine print in case the building and/or ambient wind project wants to retain IP rights to any photos or videos you take inside.

“By 8 a.m. Thursday, around 10 agents could be seen standing on Ms. Suggs’s block, according to a video of the scene taken by a neighbor and viewed by The New York Times. One agent wore a light green tactical vest with the letters “F.B.I.” stamped on the back. Another official could be seen leaving the apartment with a cardboard box.Ms. Suggs was standing on the stoop with her father as the agents searched her home, according to the neighbor, Christopher Burwell.“Whatever it is, she must have been tricked into it, because she’s a great woman,” Mr. Burwell said. “I’ve known her all my life.””OOH SOMEONE PLAYING TRICKSIES AGAIN

“Ms. Suggs has also registered as a lobbyist.

Brian Robinson, a Republican who ran an unsuccessful campaign to represent New York City's 4th City Council district, raged against the entire city shortly after losing to incumbent Democrat Keith Powers by nearly 50 points.

oh, here's the context
His opponent, newcomer and former finance business owner Robinson, cast himself as a lapsed Democrat and attempted a last-minute mudslinging campaign casting Powers as a so-called "Hamas coddler" in a widely-condemned District 4 mailer.
