What is that saying - men that are concerned about gold diggers don’t have any gold to dig?
This guy I work with hides his watch collection at work from his wife and lies about how much his military pension is so that she won't "get his money."
I just assumed they were breaking up so now I'm the bad guy for saying hopefully her divorce lawyer doesn't find out?

Thinking about the tik tok video showing no car traffic in Soho due to congestion pricing and the commenter who said “businesses on this street must be hurting”

(i say potentially because there are income based waivers!) in the rage against congestion pricing on tiktok, however, the conversation is about a hypothetical poor new yorker who drives their car into midtown every day for work. but this person is so rare as to effectively not exist!

take congestion pricing. of the 3.8 million new yorkers who commute to work, a grand total of 128,000 drive a private vehicle into manhattan. of those, about 16,000 are low income workers. we are looking at .4% of working new yorkers who are poor and potentially burdened by the fee.

fascinated by a rhetorical strategy i see all the time now, which is making up an extreme edge case to argue against doing anything for the public good, and doing this from the putative left.

Monday? Nah it’s gonna be Wednesday lol. The Wednesday traffic has become insane. My dad was like “wait so every hybrid employer in the city has one day where everyone is required to be in office and it’s the same day?” And I was like yeah basically
New York City’s long-awaited congestion pricing plan began over the weekend when few drivers were on the road and transit workers could turn on tolling equipment at a relaxed pace. But a tougher test will happen on Monday, when traffic is expected to increase, with many commuters returning to work.
Congestion Pricing’s True Test Comes During First Rush Hour
The tolls were introduced just past midnight on Sunday. Officials are still assessing how they are affecting traffic patterns in New York City.

This WaPo article about how dogs need coats in the cold seems suspiciously like an excuse to post loads of pictures of adorable pupsters in silly coats.

Do dogs need winter jackets in the cold? In most cases, yes.
“A common misconception is that dogs have hair coats and that they’re never going to be bothered by the cold,” said veterinarian Nancy Kay. “That’s not true at all.”
