This already counts as socialist?

Taking bribes and sitting on their asses about it?
Don't forget the sexual assault. A man needs hobbies.
And so much cocaine...
The Barrys separated in November 1990, soon after he was caught on videotape smoking crack cocaine with an ex-model and propositioning her for sex
Let he who is without sin smoke the first rock
That bitch got catching up to do.

Wait... NYC doesn't have those huge underground bins yet?
IME those are pretty common in even smaller cities in Europe. Even the UK has them in plenty of cities. Frees up a lot of space and you don't need to empty them as much.
America really is weird sometimes. Imagine being rich as sin, buying a multi-million dollar property in NYC, then being ok with the neighbourhood around that property smelling like someone died after fucking a dumpster filled with fish, because you're ideologically opposed to even a small tax hike.
90% of tax money in the past evaporated for
- subsidies for large corporations
- fixing roads for people living upstate in the middle of nowhere
- corrupt / shady contracts that never get fulfilled
This left us in a huge deficit with 0 public infrastructure improvements for decades.
People werent ok with it, but the billionaires running things lived upstate or in gated communities.

1-2 are two subsections of 3, though... and there are many more.
NYC has a lot of old infrastructure beneath the roads. Like a LOT. It’s improbable in most places because of cost. I’d be surprised if there was any soil left in mahattan at all
That multi-million dollar property comes with a climate controlled underground garage so they don't have to smell the poors ever. Checkmate
Soon, they'll have bunkers. Just watch. 🤫
Make sure not to poop in the air vents.
Make sure not to poop in the exhaust air vents.
Those blow out/up, and you'll have a bad time. Find the intake to make sure you're not enshittifying yourself while attending to a civic ~~duty~~ dookie. 🫡
Gotham City cosplay.
Fair's fair, this specific pilot started under Eric Adams. NYC had always been ass backwards when it comes to garbage collection and curb management starting back to when the city planners were too busy with other projects and forget to put in alleys for dumpsters and utility access.
Surprising Adams win given the overall strangeness of his tenure.
Surprising Adams win...
Not a win "for" Adams, as he may've started it (is it "starting" if nothing notable/measurable was accomplished after greenlighting it?), but Mamdani seems to've whipped whatever/whomever into line —and in record time, too! 🤌🏼
I wondered how he got the bins so fast.
Sounds more and more like a decent place to live —except for the NE winters, insane housing issues, etc. 😅😶
The winters in NYC are less brutal than the rest of NE. And if you don't have a car, then you don't have to shovel it out.
Good to know, and thanks! I was raised in that general region, so I'm experienced in weathering those winters. 🤘🏼
