"Federal immigration agents were seemingly forced to retreat from a roofing job site Tuesday in the Park Avenue neighborhood after being confronted by more than 100 protestors.
The group shouted “shame” and "Gestapo,” and applauded as agents in the ICE-led action drove a Border Patrol SUV away on four flat tires, which had been slashed."

My New York food adventures.
Not very adventurous so far as I’ve been struggling with the time change (waking up at 8am is still 5am for me).
1. Friend gets a lot of leftover bagels from Good 2 Go (anti food waste / cheap leftover food app), so he made me a BEC (bacon egg cheese)
2. One of you here invited me to your home and fed me good salmon and NA beer
3. I like the Bluestone Lane location (Aussie coffee chain) by the Guggenheim. It’s a beautiful chapel. But I still think Bluestone Lane doesn’t live up to Aussie coffee, as a concept
3. After a meeting at the Met, I was walking to Burp Bowl for Chinese soup noodles but got super hungry. So I wound up at Suki Desu somewhere near Yorksville. Chirashi bowls with fresh fish. At the end they pour a good broth into your bowl to make a rice soup. I’m happy.
4. Going to check out a Cambodian coffee spot now then make my way back to Brooklyn.
5. Lots of homemade pastrami later
Mamdani et Newsom, les deux visages de la contre-offensive démocrate face à Trump
En novembre, #ZohranMamdani, situé à la gauche du #PartiDémocrate, pourrait être élu maire de #NewYork. Plus à l’ouest géographiquement et plus centriste politiquement, #GavinNewsom, gouverneur de #Californie, défie Trump sur le terrain numérique. Tous deux veulent réveiller leur parti.

The heat held in New York's underground labyrinth of infrastructure, from hundreds of miles of subway tunnels to parking garages and malls, is a clean energy gold mine. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/environment/2025/08/17/energy/underground-parking-garages-clean-energy/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #environment #energy #emissions #energy #us #newyork
U.S. President Donald Trump's criticism of Goldman Sachs' research on tariff risks could prompt some analysts to water down their research, an outcome that could leave investors with less reliable information. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/08/15/markets/trump-attack-goldman-analysis/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #markets #us #investments #banks #goldmansachs #newyork #donaldtrump #stocks
They all kneel before the fascist autocrat.

A panel of experts tasked by Gov. Kathy Hochul to evaluate the needs of New York’s aging population has recommended that the state permanently fund and oversee guardianship services. The governor won’t say whether she will.

I know this is a real longshot but has anyone (especially those in US) ever done a course with the Integrated Regulatory Board of Auditors
I'm trying to find out if they are legit or not, but I'm not turning them up on any business databases I can find and street view is not giving me good vibes.
Love to know if anyone has done a course with them and if it was any good, or just knows them.
Please RT

So this is a bit niche even for enviro-nuts like me but if you're down to sign petitions, this one could use it. Tell SUNY ESF to drop their partnership with the dangerous, unproven, and disrespectful "Darling 58" genetically modified chestnut tree makers SilvaBio.
If you read "The Overstory," you may be familiar with the tale of chestnut trees in North America: afflicted by an invasive blight and then prematurely chopped down by panicking white people, to the extent that chestnut trees almost went extinct. Now this private company has been working with ESF to develop blight-resistant trees, but even though their results are poor, and even though indigenous communities of the northeast, such as the Onondaga Nation, have been urging a traditional breeding approach, and even though SilvaBio's stated intent to sell the trees for profit is in conflict with ESF's mission for "all people... to propagate them for personal or restoration use," ESF has been sticking with SilvaBio.

What kindness do you see in your local community?
Once a year, Sara walks through New York City carrying roses, not for a cause or a holiday, but to see strangers smile.
In parks, on the subway, in line at a coffee shop, she offers each woman a flower. Attached is a handwritten note: "You are seen. You are enough. Keep going."
Reactions vary. Some people smile. Others cry. One woman, after a long pause, whispered, “I needed this today more than you’ll ever know.”
