Yeah, when I was growing up on Tiemann place next to the elevated 125th st 1 & 9—remember that one?—I was the one white boy around lol, but that was crack era. You wouldn’t even see many Hispanic people over there, no, but now it is quite diverse, though the gentrification above 125th by Columbia has radically changed things in addition

I simply don’t want the NYPD on my Ring, if I had it. I’d want a private company that is an intermediary. I am not comfortable with the cops having constant access to all

Yes and New Yorkers often overlook this because we see this stuff daily. I’ve consciously tried to get out of that mindset. For instance, to me, seeing the Empire State Building for me was nothing. It was normal. Central Park. Plaza. Carnegie Hall. Statue of Liberty all were just normal and I have really tried getting away from seeing it that way

What is typical Chicago craziness on a “native” scale? I’ve only had the opportunity to view it through a foreign aka NYC lens

Yup that’s where it’s at but I believe it’s a joke. It is not sophisticated enough. Likely just some funny fraternity joke stuff. Have you seen the new psychic in the area lmao?

Yeah, I had to put it up! Everyday it’s something here and I took that for granted until I went off to schooling. Came back and appreciate the hell out of it bc the rest of the world is not boring, just not as wild, sorry, not even other major cities. Just how it is, we’ve got a rep we gotta live up to, we’re new f’in Yorkers!

Those should always be placed at the top of the advertisement, however. Appears Golthar is still a n00b
