I miss my car, looking for sympathy

I waited until I no longer needed a practical car and got this August 2025. In July 2026 I got t-boned by an SUV. Got a new car but it isn't the same.

WiFi issues

A quick announcement to say that CityTech is experiencing (more) difficulty (than usual) with WiFi. Not just because of a surge in enrollment and construction, but infrastructural issues that are being actively addressed/worked on. This will be shared on the CUNY as well.

Very sick cat, starting to be very picky

Hi, another cat is dying and I'm on a quest to find food he likes. The Fancy Feast was perfect but it's discontinued. I've tried other things but I think it's the milky part he likes. I'm overwhelmed with choices -- does anyone have a suggestion for some thing that would be like this? Thank you (sorry the image is s big)

Purina Fancy Feast Wet Cat Food, Creamy Delights Tuna Feast in a Creamy Sauce

Free cute blue cabinet

Also posted on Buy Nothing but thought I'd try here as well. It's about 3 ft high, 3 ft wide, and about 30 inches deep. By the curb waiting for new owners who love it. Please take this!

Looking for quiet place for lunch south of midtown?

A friend from Edinburgh is visiting midtown in about two weeks. She's had a hard time with an autoimmune disease that's resisting treatment so she doesn't have much energy or desire to explore. Is there a quiet and quaint place for lunch and tea that's south of midtown where we can sit and talk for a couple of hours?

Edit: thanks for the suggestions so far, it's been hard for my friend.

Quiet place for lunch south of midtown?

My post was removed by Visit NYC mods so while my ask is not about JC I'm hoping enough people have lived in or commute to or travel to the city to see people that this won't be deleted from here:

Old people-with-cats (or old people whose dogs act like cats or old people who tolerate us) book group, no serial killers please

Just circling back, did everyone who was interested initially get in touch? So far we've read Jane Austen, Ben Shattuck, Monsters: A Fan' Dilemma, A Canticle for Leibowitz, Milkman (about The Troubles), and are on track for Nabokov in August and The Master and Margarita shortly.

Suit and sweater reweaving

Hi, I have two sweaters and a pair of suit trousers that need to be rewoven and I don't know if anyone in our area can do that. I've used Alterknit in the city before and have been very happy with the results and the pricing but the communication was terrible and the length of time felt excessive. Does anyone have a good place to suggest? FYI I live in Jersey City and commute to DT Brooklyn. Thank you

Found glasses near LSP light rail

Somehow I managed to delete my earlier post but when I asked the security person at the NJT trailer about my own lost glasses they (of course) weren't there but there WERE lots of fancy car keys, fobs, and wallets. Just sitting there. For who knows long. But maybe it's your fancy car key and you don't need to replace it??

While searching fory own lost glasses I found these by the LSP light rail and on the way to Liberty Science Center. Leaving them here because of unhelpfulness of NJT parking lot staff.

Rhiannon Giddens at Carnegie Hall tonight

I hope this post is Ok: My husband bought tickets for Rhiannon Giddons at Carnegie Hall for TONIGHT. But I've been too sick to go and he forgot to resell. We paid $260/2 tickets and would be grateful if someone bought them for face value.

Good morning, now that the Star Ledger and the JJ are gone and don't even think about the Times, where/how do you all get local news?
