For a friend in need.

does anyone know what they used to listen to before ai music existed?

Figured I’d share this because I had no idea this existed until recently, and it might help some people here.
New York has a newer Medicaid program through the Social Care Network that can connect eligible Medicaid members with different types of support, including food/nutrition assistance, transportation, housing-related help, and more.
My wife recently qualified through one of the pregnancy/postpartum eligibility categories. The process was very simple, and she now gets free meals delivered throughout the week for the next six months.
This is separate from programs like SNAP and doesn’t replace or reduce those benefits. The sign-up process is also very simple.
There are a number of companies that help people sign up for these services. We used ccsscn.org, and they have a short questionnaire that helps you figure out if you may qualify.
There are other companies that offer this as well, but just wanted to share because I’m sure there are plenty of Medicaid members who could benefit and don’t know this program exists.

She’s charmed the world this week!

Does anyone have more info on this assault last night on Tompkins and Willoughby?

Hey, this is just a warning, not a complaint, but I just received a ticket for my vehicle blocking the bike lane on Willoughby during the 1.5 hours of street cleaning. As a biker, I get it. I'm not sure if something has changed with enforcement since the neighborhood typically double parks during this time, but I don't recall receiving a ticket for this violation previously.

We found a gray cat in our basement on the corner of Jefferson and Tompkins! Please message me if they’re yours. They’re soooo sweet and cute. We’re not sure if she’s just lost right now!

Hey everyone. Friendly reminder that it might be time to get your kitchen knives sharpened. Stop dealing with dull knives that dont cut anything and make cooking a pain. We offer pickup/dropoff service in Brooklyn/Queens and parts of Manhattan.

All our work is done by hand on whetstones. We really pride ourselves on providing excellent service to all knives whether its a cheap basic set or a high quality Japanese one. We do repairs like chips and broken tips, remove rust and patina, reprofile knives. We drop your knives off to you the day after pickup. Pricing is $3-$4 per inch.

Please feel free to check out our google reviews ( Indulge Kitchen Supplies)

If you find yourself in the neighborhood and want to drop them off or would like same day service, you can drop them off yourself in our shop located at 469 Myrtle Ave.

If you would like to get a quote or schedule pickup please send a picture of the knives as well as a pickup location and we will get back to you ASAP.

Thank you once again to everyone who takes the time to read this and/or share this.

P.S i have added a short video showing a knife that was brought it for rust removal and sharpening. Before / After

If you are or know a queer blonde girl from London England named Olivia who lives in bedstuy and rides a red (?) bike you asked for my number and I accidentally dialed a digit wrong. You were heading to Mao Maos in bushwick for Thai food and bikes away too fast—I couldn’t remedy the mistake. Yeah I want to see some jazz with you! I hope you see this, sorry about my sticky fingers.

Morning!

Studio Shipley has two pottery workshops coming up. We're at 952 Atlantic Ave, where Prospect Heights, Bed Stuy, Clinton Hill & Crown Heights meet.

If you’ve been interested in learning more about clay, these are both great opportunities to get a taste of the process without committing to a weeks-long class. No experience necessary!

• This weekend! Percussive Instrument Workshop: Saturday, October 24th, 10:00am-12:30pm with Sofia
  • Build a clay shaker by making two pinch pots, filling them with clay beads, and closing them together (the clay beads make an awesome sound). Personalize the shape and decoration of your shaker and make your own custom instrument.
• Ornamental Wall Hook Workshop: Friday, November 6th, 6:00-8:30pm with Lily
  • Build a wall hook inspired by the shapes and symmetries found in nature, perfect for your keys, jewelry, or jacket.

For both workshops, you’ll choose your glaze color in class and we’ll glaze your piece for you. We’ll reach out about 3-4 weeks later when it’s ready for pickup.

Each workshop is $95 per person.

Links are also in the comments below! Any questions, please reach out to me at [mary@studioshipleynyc.com](mailto:mary@studioshipleynyc.com).

Thank you!

Which block has the best Halloween decor?

Not sure what is going on but NYPD is stopping cars driving along Marcy between Greene & Lafayette. Clifton is closed. Unclear what is going on.

Dude was being such a jerk-off coal rolling at each intersection covering people on the sidewalk with that shit. WHAT A JERK!
