One of the best building designs in the area… on the outside.
The units themselves - weird AF.

Your nuance is lost when you spend 99% of your time posting dumb crap on Twitter.

He works for UBS - it’s on his LinkedIn.
As to their history:

I’m shocked that the “progressive” attorney for a Swiss bank that hides the money of wealthy people and withheld funds from Nazi victims has a dumb take on this.

Yeah I don’t know about you, but I’m not risking my life over a phone.

What does urban development and growth have to do with his inability to follow traffic rules and her inability to follow common sense and stop?

She should resign, but that being said, I don’t see what claim he has here. Her driving off didn’t cause his injury, his running the red caused his injury.

They don’t really enforce the zones, especially downtown. They enforce street cleaning mainly.

Probably don’t want to disturb the office tenants with the tourist traffic.

Lokal is significantly better. Hudson & Co is a huge rip off.

I went tonight. It was solid. Definitely a different vibe from Madame Claude but the food and drinks were good, servers were excited and friendly. I will go back.

That’s a bunch of BS. You want money? Get a job like the rest of us.
You also don’t know why someone would take $800 out of an ATM. It doesn’t mean they are wealthy.

Reply to Why would we send another Menendez to DC? We deserve better and this is why Democrats will lose more ground. by oneofmanypeople7
We live in a country where people are innocent until proven guilty. And he wasn’t proven guilty in the last case, which was flimsy at best.

Why even go to a therapist if you just want someone who is going to tell you what you want to hear? You could just talk to your mirror if you want to do that.

There is a pretty big gulf between fatphobia and scientifically and medically inaccurate nonsense like HAES. Any therapist that tells you with a straight face that you can be healthy at any size should lose their license.
That’s why you are having such a hard time finding a therapist that is ok with that approach. Most of them aren’t that unethical.

That’s because HAES is nonsense. No one should be stigmatized for their weight or appearance but any health professional that tells you being overweight will not lead to negative health outcomes is just lying to you.

It goes both ways, I lived in a small apartment building before and it was terrible. Now I live in a corporate-managed building and it’s far better.

They need to give you a receipt and accept any form of payment they accept at their normal business location. You should call them and demand a refund.
If they refuse, report them to the NJ Division of Consumer Affairs: https://www.njconsumeraffairs.gov/News/Consumer%20Briefs/what-you-should-know-about-getting-towed.pdf
