It'll be a shame to lose such a wonderful city, but then again, it is full of New Yorkers.

Sadly, being full of New Yorkers still isn't enough to fully drown out the obnoxious gits that moved here from the UK.
running for President too ... Its on Twitter so it must be true:
They need to factor in the number of people taking their loose change and moving elsewhere. The newcomers, traveling by bus, don't have sufficient loose change to even things out.
In 2016, I did an oil painting of my friend Jeremy for his birthday. He's into hippos, Satanic stuff, and was in the Navy. He loves the Weekly World News. I did custom accents for the frame that included a sculpt I did of Batboy. Below is the boxed, completed painting from the night of his birthday on February 9th, 2016, followed by detail shots taken prior.
The separation is pure illusion. The church is a member of the State, hence the property tax exemption. All religions are registered corporations.
Pure illusion!
While very much not my taste...that is very impressive! Where did you get the custom frame made? Is it 3d printed?
It's why I love living in London - there are hardly any English people here.
Oh, gee, I don't know, let's see...maybe stop lying about safety and efficacy and hiding the data...and instead start producing non-toxic vaccines with full disclosure of the ingredients, and that have actually been fully and rigorously safety tested.
And make the manufacturers legally liable for whatever injuries or deaths their products cause.
But we all know the above will never will happen, so you go right ahead and roll up your sleeve if you want...I'm sure as hell not.
I ordered the gilt frame from a shop in California and modified it by epoxying odds and ends onto it that I coated with a gold wax compound (Rub 'n' Buff). As I recall, the frame was a plaster cast.
Wut???
That sounds like you are implying the multi-trillion-dollar Medical Industrial Complex controls govenment agencies, media outlets, and political officials and manipulates them for financial gain regardless of any harm that might result.
Which would violate the hippocratic oath.
Therefore, it simply cannot be happening.
I'm old enough to remember those days... Magma is dang hard on boots!
Pretty sure I don't care what's happening in New York, I expect there's enough time for folks to respond before it sinks into the ooze.
The way folks pick and choose what science they believe is something I think about, but there appears to be no rhyme or reason to it. Some say they don't believe in climate change but they aren't going to purchase oceanfront property WUT???? Local headlines here in NC show multiple oceanfront neighborhoods being reclaimed by the sea due to rising water levels from artic, and antarctic melting -- sounds like climate change to me.
Anti-vaxxers are another puzzling group. They seem opposed to COVID vaccines I guess because of some thought that those vaccines in particular are harmful. It can't be a philosophical issue with vaccines writ large as you don't hear any advocacy for getting rid of polio, scarlet fever, smallpox, MMR, tetanus, and other vaccines. Most anti-vaxxers I know dutifully vaccinate their pets for rabies -- can't make this stuff up.

Why people won’t get their shots and would rather risk death is fear, ignorance, superstition, plain hard headed cussedness, and liberal parenting while growing up.
None were raised up Campbellite. Our mothers would have slapped us until we were more than willing to get our shots, had there been anti vaxxers then. There was no option left to us, than to do the responsible, correct thing. Conservative parenting would avoid such behavior as not getting vaccinated. For a long time in this nation children have been given liberty unimaginable in a strict old time Christian home.
Now, will New York someday sink into the ocean, from whence it came?
It’s none of our business and beyond our control.
The sea level has changed and will change again as it has for billions of years before man walked in the Garden.

The sea level off New York’s coast is up to 9 inches higher than it was in 1950.1 This increase is mostly due to the slowing of the Gulf Stream and New York’s sinking land, and it’s causing major issues. In places like New York City, solutions can be complex because of the city’s unique location, vast network of underground railroads, and proximity to other large coastal cities. With nearly half of the state’s residents living in marine counties, sea level rise puts New York’s people, resources, and economy atrisk.2 There are already over 30,000 properties at risk from frequent tidal flooding in New York.3 The state is planning over $4 billion in sea level rise solutions, which include raising roads, fixing drainage, and building seawalls.

At one foot rise a century in about five hundred years they might need taller levies, you know?

OVERVIEW
New York’s Sea Level Has Risen 9” Since 1950
And It's Costing Over $4 Billion
The sea level off New York’s coast is up to 9 inches higher than it was in 1950.1 This increase is mostly due to the slowing of the Gulf Stream and New York’s sinking land, and it’s causing major issues. In places like New York City, solutions can be complex because of the city’s unique location, vast network of underground railroads, and proximity to other large coastal cities. With nearly half of the state’s residents living in marine counties, sea level rise puts New York’s people, resources, and economy atrisk.2 There are already over 30,000 properties at risk from frequent tidal flooding in New York.3 The state is planning over $4 billion in sea level rise solutions, which include raising roads, fixing drainage, and building seawalls.
Sea level rise is speeding up
The sea level around Battery, New York, has risen by nearly 9 inches since 1950. Its speed of rise has accelerated over the last ten years and it’s now rising by 1 inch every 7-8 years.1 Scientists know this because the sea level is measured every 6 minutes using equipment like satellites, floating buoys off the coast, and tidal gauges to accurately measure the local sea level as it accelerates and changes.4——
The tides in New York Harbor are about four to six feet.

Some people here certainly spend a lot of time expressing how they feel about not caring about something that might or might not be happening to a place that they don't like but likely never even visited because they heard from a neighbor or whoever how their hubcaps were stolen on a trip to that place in 1992.
@simong: Is that you and myself at the 'Choke & Puke' on our road tip to Weezel's?
