Are cities for their actual residents, or for wealthy suburban business owners/political donors? With folks like Eric Adams & Providence's Brett Smiley, if journalists pretend not to know the answer, they're revealing they ALSO think they work for the latter.

"The roadway once carried between four and six lanes for motor vehicles, despite 88 percent of people in the area traveling on foot and squeezing into 30 percent of the space." And now Adams wants to give it back to cars?

Mayor Adams May Nix Sidewalk Expansions on Bustling Eighth Ave. - Streetsblog New York Citynyc.streetsblog.org Mayor Eric Adams cast doubt on years of city efforts to give pedestrians more space to walk on overcrowded Eighth Avenue.

“I don’t like the bus I’m on and I feel like it might crash, and that’s too risky, so I think it would be a good idea to jump off of it while it’s moving because maybe I’ll do a backflip and land on another car like in a Fast & Furious movie.” That’s what this seems like to me.

It doesn’t get better at it

How does a typo like this make it into print? In the second sentence of a paperback edition by a well-known author no less. #copyediting #manhattan #nyc

"But it's confusing!" Pronouns are always confusing. Try copyediting a sex scene between two men. AU: Not sure whose penis "his penis" is here. Can you clarify?
