Here’s the thing about buses: in many places, buses are only for the poors. Whenever I’d talk to newcomers about living in Greenpoint they’d complain about the G. I’d say “yeah but the bus goes over the bridge & drops you at the last stop in queens on the 7, it’s great” “oh I don’t ride the BUS”

Journalism as Stenography: Every single article I've read about the Idaho Qatari air base has simply said it will exist because Hegseth said it. Not a single article explains why or what it will be (which I assume will be a joint training facility). This is awful journalism.

I’m shaken, my neighbors are terrified. We live off central and Lowry which is both heavily immigrant and heavily FAMILIES. This is a family neighborhood. There are multiple bus stops in our hood where multiple bus routes take kids to multiple schools.
