I just reported debris in the Meeker Avenue protected #BikeNYC lane between Apollo Street and Catherine Fagan Street. @NYCSanitation thanks in advance. What is the schedule for sweeping this lane? 311-19962006 cc @LincolnRestler @CMJulieWon @nyc311

Hey @GovKathyHochul, we won't let this go! We demand better public tranist, cleaner air and safer streets. It's time for #CongestionPricingNow!

I had to wait a full 60 seconds for a pedestrian signal to cross Queens Boulevard to get to the #CongestionPricingNow rally in Sunnyside. With #CongestionPricing we could transform the Boulevard from a barrier into a public space! (pic from December) grieve-smith.com/ftn/2011/02…

I just left a message for my Congressmember @Grace4NY. We need #CongestionPricing in Woodside, and the attempts by Minority Leader Jeffries to kill it are a bad strategy that will hurt the people of Queens if he succeeds!
Also, Hakeem Jeffries is the House Minority Leader. If you're represented by a Democrat, your Representative voted for Jeffries. He works for you!

I just left a voice mail for Gianaris, my Senator. Mike, I marched with you and @RidersAlliance in support of the MTA. The Governor's botched strategy would not help win back the House. Please be loyal to your constituents and not her, and get congestion pricing started ASAP!

I love the Berry Open Street, and I want to see McGuinness Boulevard made safer. @EmilyAssembly has been a fighter for safety in North Brooklyn, and we need to help her keep fighting! I just donated to Gallagher's primary re-election campaign: secure.actblue.com/donate/em…

Me, for the @NYDailyNews: The biggest and least forgivable mistake of New York’s coronavirus response is the one happening right now: failing to learn from experience. nydailynews.com/2024/03/04/w…

After months, I have reported the two sunken areas on the #MakeMeekerMove #bikeNYC path under the BQE at Kingsland Avenue to @nyc_dot If this is not leveled soon, I'm expecting big ice sheets. I tried to upload the pics but got an error. Report #DB2023348006 @LincolnRestler

When I talk about the cheaper meters, some testing with volunteers showed the difference swings wildly. I suspect temperature is a big factor. But reading lower can sometimes give a really bad false sense of safety: teapaw.org/grievesmith/status/158…
Replying to @grievesmith
October 6: the milk station in an uncrowded Manhattan café, my otolaryngologist's waiting room, and a crowded but outdoor table in Bryant Park. October 9: the checkout counter at a Sunnyside café. The PTH-8 readings are poorly calibrated, so go by the Aranet4!

A new Covid variant has been detected in NYC’s wastewater. While there is no indication that this variant causes more serious infections, staying up to date on vaccines, testing, masking, and remaining home when sick is still the best way to keep yourself and loved ones safe!

All Democrats do is simultaneously tell you they can’t help you while promising that if you vote for them they’re gonna help you.

What a chucklehead – at Manhattan, NY
As president, I will make sure that your right to use and hold Bitcoin is inviolable. Bitcoin is not only a bulwark against totalitarianism and the manipulation of our money supply, it points the way toward a future in which government institutions are more transparent and more democratic.

Today we celebrate the anniversary of the Dobbs decision. Florida is proof that with bold leadership we can expand pro-life protections & provide more resources for mothers and families. I will always champion a culture of life.

My biggest takeaway from the Titan story is that we absolutely could have coordinated, multinational efforts to ensure no migrant dies crossing the sea and we choose not to.

furiously petting my rescue cats after reading this @k80way masterpiece - the room she gives everyone involved to say their piece, matched with crucial context, is so impressive hellgatenyc.com/nyc-feral-ca…
