u/gillnana recently made a useful post about which rocco was better.

now nyt are mentioning rocco as a chain in reference to the best pizza in ny.... is fact checking of them needed?

the reason i write this is i gave out all my candy and i prefer discussion of rocco pizza misinformation vs the aquarium. or any pizza discussion. what do you think of this nyt article mention of rocco chain. shall we tell inform nyt that per the subreddit we deem rocco iii independent and superior to the rocco referenced? 👻

Wondering if there’s any places nearby having halloween events this Saturday night??

This election cycle, NYC will vote on six ballot proposals.

Read about them here or feel free to discuss in the comments below!

Anyone else get woken up by the backup beepers from the Touch-Up Cleaning trucks parked in the lots at Lexington & Bedford every morning between 5 and 6am? NYC’s quiet hours are 10pm-7am so they’re clearly breaking the law. I’ve tried everything, and the owners of the company have stopped being responsive. Any ideas how to force them to comply with the quiet hours?

With election night coming up, I’m hoping to find a good spot around Clinton Hill, Bed-Stuy, Crown Heights, or Fort Greene where people are watching/ drinking as the results come in. Any recommendations for bars or lounges that might be showing the coverage?

Hey everyone! If you love Herbert Von King Park as much as I do, you’ve probably noticed the trash can situation is inadequate, especially on nice weekends —only 20 bins across the whole park, and they’re often overflowing. This petition is asking the city to add more trash cans and empty them more often so we can keep our park looking great.

Sign and share if you’re in! Let’s make our park cleaner and greener for everyone to enjoy. Thanks!

I’m an adult with no kids and I forget. Is it like 4p? Want to give out candy this year as there are always lots of kids coming down my block each year!

I've been spoiled with a washer/dryer at my old apt and am back to that laundromat life. Been out of touch with Laundromat prices... What are the cheapest drop off and self-service laundromats in the neighborhood?

A new cafe opened on MG where Miss Bagel was and they will be carrying their bagels! Happy news for those of us near that corner 🥯

So we have Rocco Pizza on Dekalb/Tompkins and Rocco Pizza III on Halsey/Throop. What's the deal there? Are these places affiliated with each other? Is one a knockoff? Which one is better? I can't find any answers after some research. Thanks!

Hi y’all, unfortunately I was rear ended by a semi while I was waiting for the light to turn green on Franklin Ave (about to cross Fulton St) this morning around 8:15am.

The semi took off and I did not manage to grab the license plate.

I’ve been talking to local businesses to see if their cameras face the street, and have hopefully one potential lead.

Has this happened to anyone else? Any other ideas?

I wanna dress up!

UPDATE: I found my friend this morning. He’s currently safe with me at my place. He’s definitely having some sort of psychotic episode. I called 988 and I’m waiting for a mobile crisis response team now. Thank you to everyone who replied, it was all very helpful!

I’m concerned about a friend who is in an unsafe situation and may be having a psychotic episode. We have tried texting, calling, asking friends if they’ve talked to him, and gone over to his apartment, but haven’t been able to get in contact. We just tried calling the building’s super from the posted number on the first floor but they didn’t pick up. Now we’re walking around neighborhood bars seeing if we can spot him. The next step seems to be a wellness check, which we will do, but I’m generally wary of calling the police. Are there other groups or services I can call? If the cops are the only answer we’ll do that of course but if there’s another resource I’d like to use it. Thank you in advance.

Been living in nyc all my life but i feel like i don't take advantage of the nightlife here. a few days ago we went to bedstuy for some bars and club fun. i really enjoyed this club called casa maya. Anyone else know of any clubs similar to the vibe or better in your opinion. I'm trynna be out this halloween. :)))

thought this would be a lot easier to find than it is. the closer to Nostrand & Jefferson the better

Dreamery, vegan ice cream spot. I left a pint of it out for a bit assuming it would melt, forgot about it for a few hours, saw it did not melt at all. Left it out for the whole day ~just to see~ which was about another 18 hours, and it still remained completely solid, without any of it changing in consistency.

Ingredients aren't listed on their pints or website, so I'm wondering what agent or preservative is being used. Also now avoiding because whatever it is, I don't want it sitting in my stomach.
