Tonight in the West Village I saw a man carrying a newborn in one arm with no sling or stroller, while he carried a shopping bag in the other hand. He had to stop to adjust the baby, and it scared me to see this sweet little babe in such a precarious position. The man was sweaty and frazzled, and he appeared to be alone. I asked him if he needed help and he said no. I’m not a parent or a baby-crazed person, but I can’t get the scenario out of my head. I’m sure there are a thousand reasons why he was in this situation, and that he probably has a mansion nearby, but for the love of god, man, be careful.

I realize we’re in a period of incessant inflation, but overnight the uber fares increased by about 30-40%. Has anyone else noticed this?
