it’s really wild to me that, when you really think about it, all the #xmas celebrations that we think of as American, came out of #nyc; and a lot of those celebrations were basically based on traditions from #Ukraine and the Baltics:
- yule logs
- bell ringing
- #redwork #embroidery
the other part of this story is that the most famous American #Christmas songs were written by Jews. ironically, there’s a Canadian documentary about it:
Dreaming of a Jewish Christmas

#Kiev was the name of the coffee shop where i first fell in love. it didn't work out but i still have the memory of that matzo ball soup. btw, that’s where i met Allen Ginsburg and Quentin Crisp. twas their favorite spot.
Veselka is the last remaining bastion of the East Village’s #Ukraina past. now that i columbused The Carol of The Bells is an ukrainian folk song, i get why i used to hear it everywhere here.
just reckoned, the East Village #xmas of yore is ukrainian.
so happy #kievmas

just found out the first 5 years after cancer therapy are the most critical for my longevity. been so busy catching up with living after 2 years of battling cancer, i forgot it’s my first year #cancerFree
one year and 4 days ago, i fucked cancer into the sea, thanks to NYS and #NYC public health systems. may i have many more to battle the fascistocracy who want us dead by dismantling #Obamacare.
free health care is a human right. abolishing health capitalism is our antifa duty. #fuckCancer

You know congestion pricing has worked just as advertised, when even @politico can't find some controversy to concoct.
And yes, e.g. "the New York City Economic Development Corp. found foot traffic inside the central business district was up 4.8 percent compared to only 1 percent for business districts elsewhere in the city."¹
