I'm sure it'd be cheaper but I bet the materials would be worse

You'll be able to afford one of the units that opens up when the city's wealthier residents do their hermit crab dance up to the flatiron building.

Guy moves into the Flatiron, guy 2 moves into that guy's old place, yaffa yadda yadda, you move into guy 10,000's old place

I thought they already reversed it?

Where the "shit to say" in question is "ha" and "good" and "morons"? Are you trying to point to some irony or what? What's "incredible" about it? Seems like a pretty consistent "get fucked, maga" outlook

Wdym it doesn't matter? People were fired, a show was cancelled. Why are you posting "it doesn't matter" in this piece's comments section rather than in any other given news comment section? By "it doesn't matter" you mean "it happened" and somehow that's a dismissal of something?

I mean it does seem like unionbusting as described

I'm illiterate huh. Interesting. So count for me, how many examples of:

> actual human beings who did nothing wrong and got banned for it.

, which is the thing I quoted and replied to, had you given.

Hint: it's one.

Are you now saying that "ryulong" did nothing wrong? Thought you were saying the opposite.

This is the first time you've mentioned the third person.

So yeah... Literally actually one example

> Brother I gave you fucking examples of actual human beings who did nothing wrong and got banned for it.

You gave one example and it literally wasn't a parsable English sentence. So you gave zero examples.

> Students at College ‘B’ do not know about Wikipedia.

This sentence and every sentence after it are extremely unrealistic.

Wikipedia was already one of the top most popular websites in the world before any of this, and there is just no reason at all that Facebook would be a significant vector of spreading wikipedia.

The parts of this chain that connect FB and wikipedia do not ring true to me at all. I absolutely do not think that Wikipedia was a college site and then when FB expanded to the general public, the general public found out about Wikipedia by being connected to college students. No part of that seems true or reasonable to me.

Wikipedia is full of shit

If you wanted more shades of difference at one end and fewer at the other, sure. Which end do you want squish and which end do you want to expand?

I don't understand the connection you're proposing. What's the link between the two websites

At a certain point "devaluing a building" is better than paying taxes on an empty building that no one can do anything profitable with.

Also at a certain point, doing a small amount of wall work and renting out as many huge residential units as there are bathrooms in the building is better than paying taxes on an empty building that no one else can do anything profitable with.

Like you're talking about the renovations being too expensive... Is that a reason to endlessly hold the property, pay taxes on it, and get nothing forever? No. It's a reason to lower your expectations. It's a reason for your asking price to go down until you're back on the demand curve.

It is absolutely financially viable to sell or rent a space that is receiving 0 income otherwise. It's just not what they want.

The places don't need lots of work to turn into apartments. They need lots of work to turn into lots of apartments.

There is a point between "leave it almost as is and rent out as many units as there are existing bathrooms" and an extreme retrofit to maximize the number of units that becomes worth it. The former scenario is still better than getting nothing.

One way to solve the light and air requirements is to make long spindly apartments with windows and bedrooms at one end. That is the starting point of the prior comments. Adding "but also, you need to solve the light and air requirements" is misplaced.

That's all true but not particularly relevant to the diad of comments you've responded to here.

You put this comment in the wrong place I think

> people don't want long skinny apartments with just one or two windows.

But what if it's....... cheaper

"People don't want" is kind of an insane thing to say about housing in Manhattan. If the place has downsides, make it cheaper, ta-da people want it

Okay what's your opinion now

Think only one of the 'U's should be yellow, right? L if so

The police later said that he had already hit people by the time he was stopped; guess it won't be clear until later

Welp. Sorry, earlier reporting.

Oddly blase reaction from the son. Says his dad does "very frequently [does] something like this". Maybe he gave the interview before reading the news

> and got mentally ill vagrants psychiatric help.

... By force? Is that what you mean? Dude had no priors
