It reminds me of moms I interviewed who stopped following the news once they sent their kids back to in-person school after Covid closures. They told me "I'm putting my head in the sand." They didn't want to know what was happening because knowing meant having to do something with that knowledge.

Technically it’s the Kroger deli in Bowling Green, KY, but I’d like to think it’s the interview for a band instrument repair gig that I walked out on at Sam Ash on 34th St.

It turns out that a brisk walk through the park, a tiny cup of coffee from the world’s friendliest concessions guy, and a beautiful woman in a red evening gown playing the shit out of the piano is enough to turn my mood around.

Anthony Pinciotti’s service from this afternoon is available to stream if you, like me, were unable to attend. Anthony immediately brought me into the fold when I moved to NYC and always made me feel special. He was an amazing person and beautiful musician. www.youtube.com/live/0ok6EqH...

I’ve seen the numbers within the congestion pricing zone. Do we have stats about traffic outside the zone? I’m curious if it’s worse at the GWB with folks avoiding the tunnels. FWIW, I ride a NJ Transit bus into Port Authority every day and it has been much faster!

I heard that some guy I went to grad school with [who is a rightwing hack] got $10 million from an 'anonymous' donor to do some bullshit. Our side is scrounging for change in the cushions of a loveseat.

My bus is flying through the Lincoln Tunnel this morning. This is a marked difference from pre-congestion pricing. I hope it holds.
