@armavirus @GershKuntzman @InnaVernikov @cb14brooklyn @NYC_DOT Jewish kids and adults are riding bicycles all over Kensington and Boro Park... the streets are too narrow BECAUSE of the cars parked on both sides - remove the car parking and BAM, plenty of space for a protected bike lane!!

@GershKuntzman @InnaVernikov @cb14brooklyn @NYC_DOT Jewish area with lots of kids. They don't ride bicycles as much as people in other areas. Also, the streets are quite narrow with cars parked on both sides. Cars will have to drive very close to one side increasing chance of kids being run over because drivers can't see the kids

🚨 HUGE UPDATE on proposed bike lanes in Midwood: I spoke w/ Brooklyn Borough Commissioner Keith Bray & @cb14brooklyn to HALT this from happening. Happy to say as a result of our conversations and advocacy, @NYC_DOT is PAUSING implementation of bike lanes in the southern section, including E. 12 & other blocks that overlap into our district! 💪 We will update the community on opportunities to voice your opposition to the project. Huge thank you to Shawn Campbell from CB14 for being such an incredible help on this issue!

I watch this video every Holocaust Remembrance Day. And I cry every time, because it revives my hope in humanity! This is Nicholas Winton, who rescued 669 (mostly Jewish) children from Czechoslovakia during the Holocaust & brought them to Britain in the Kindertransport.

One photo. It tells an entire story. It started with hate. But it didn’t end there. Today we remember the six million men, women and children murdered in the Holocaust. We promise to never stop sharing their stories.

This pedestrian signal and this conflicting bike signal are green at the same time, isn’t this Bad? I just made a biker very Mad by walking into the crosswalk on the Hudson bikeway (where these people are walking) while the pedestrian signal was green

Really good question! This hits on lots of interesting variables with plastic recycling. The short answer is this piece of plastic film *is* recyclable but we don’t have infrastructure to collect it so it can’t be recycled today and must be trashed. Long answer:
Lee@MandyKnowsDC

Hi @CharDreizen !! Do you know why this plastic isn’t recyclable?

@Sen_Gounardes I've never seen a politician so excited to enact a toll on millions of chemotherapy recipients. Congratulations. You will be voted out pretty soon. Be ready. Because I just told you the wording of the commercial.

Where do I file my refund request for the thousands of dollars in NJ Turnpike tolls I’ve paid over the years to support NJ’s travel infrastructure? It’s unconscionable that NYers should have to pay to use NJ’s roads.
Governor Phil Murphy@GovMurphy

I am firmly opposed to any attempt to force through a congestion pricing proposal in the final months of the Biden Administration. My administration will continue the fight to block this plan in court.

This is how our district looked like today at various locations. It's unacceptable and has to stop! We're putting all construction and utility companies on notice. We will not rest until you either comply with the law or we'll drive you out of our district by all means necessary.

Dear naive anti-Israel activist 1. 'Palestine' is a name given to the Jewish holy land by Christian European empires.... It has nowt to do with indigenous people, Islam or Judaism. 2. The map of 'Palestine' you hold up as sacred was drawn just over 100 years ago by a colonial pen. It is entirely a modern colonial construct. Basically the enemies of Israel just piggybacked on your ignorance and antisemitism... to get you to support a fictional narrative - and today you are just a person in the west, trying to dicate and impose a completely western and alien concept on people living 1000s of miles away... No different from how supremacists in European empires were acting 100s of years ago. You are EXACTLY what you say you despise.

@amcasper Or 2) if the load of recycling is too contaminated to recycle (more than 20% contaminated), where that full load is just too full of contamination to even send through the recycling system. In these cases the full load is directed to landfill or waste-to-energy.

Agh. I’ve been there! If you are feeling game - would 100% say moving a (plastic) bag of recycling to the trash. But, I get the tons of reasons why one may not want to on a given day. Collectors (99% of the time) won’t move a bag of recycling to the trash due to…
Emma Israel@emmarisrael

@CharDreizen if I see bagged recycling in the bins at my apartment building, should I pull it out and trash it? Do the collectors do that? Please advise!
