Where would you go for emergency vet services? Ridgewood or bushwick.
I had a scary moment with my cat. She is fine now. But for a moment I was thinking I had to take her somewhere for emergency services and realized I have no idea where I would take her. Then I started looking it up, but doesn't seem like there are any 24 vet services around here. Figured I'd make this post now for if something happens in the future. Thank you.

Can anyone install my AC? Tomorrow the 21st. It’s heavy and large.
Second floor. Need you to install two stable brackets. I have a drill and screws.
Can pay you $50 and a cold beer. Won’t take more than an hour (hopefully)
Explosions just now
Lights flickered and many loud booms, himrod and Seneca. Heard a man say “exploded.” What was that?
Please stop bringing your kids to bars
Full stop. Feeding off of the energy from a recent r/bedstuy post. If it isnt a bar/restaurant, keep them at home. People come to a bar to enjoy a vibe or drown their sorrows, not to see your 5 year old climb up on a stool and start throwing coasters like theyre party favors.
i dont care what the argument is. ive lived in nyc my entire life and this is a new issue with the changing demographic.

Best spicy margaritas and food to match
Looking for someplace to go Saturday night that has a knock out spicy margarita, hopefully some amazing tacos and guacamole, and a chill enough atmosphere where we won't be rushed out.
Swarm of bees?
There appears to be a swarm of bees at Fairview and Gates Ave. Be(e) careful, everyone! 😭
MTA Construction
Anyone live near FPR M stop? Worried about the construction and the lead in the air. MTA claims they are using the safest protocols but they are sandblasting which is definitely not considered the safest protocol for dealing with lead. They also claim they are sealing the site off but…I have eyes. lol
I’ve been trying to get the construction schedule to see when the sandblasting is actually happening so I can stay away, but can’t find it anywhere. Anyone know where to look or is anyone able to find it?
EDIT:
in case anyone wanted to know, they are doing dry sandblasting starting next week Tuesday. They are doing it in sections, a couple days sandblasting, a couple days horrible acetone-like smell (anyone know what that smell is exactly?) and repeat until it’s done. They said it is “sealed” and contained and an inspector is on site at all times when that is happening to make sure it is contained. I’m not personally convinced to be honest so we are taking precautions in my house to protect ourselves against the dangerous dust particularly during the blasting periods. Masking up etc.
Looking for an Affordable Seamstress
Hi y’all,
I need a pair of pants altered, they are high waisted and have a synthetic stretch to them. I’m looking to get the hem shortened and the taking in the wait.
