How I felt when the reapers and Cerberus finally started killing each other in Mass Effect 3

No way in NYC. I live in the outer boroughs so they’re a bit chattier the further you ride away from Manhattan but people still prefer reading a book or listening to something.

I actually did advocacy for the city council hearing that Adam Friedland was trolling during the cold open of his new Ro Khanna episode.

If anyone is in NYC and interested, the NYPD runs an entirely secretive gang database which basically only registers Black and Latino young men. No italian mobsters, no Chinese street gangs. There have been kids as young as 12 added onto there and some people found themselves on there because they posted a selfie with a gang member or live in a public housing complex where gang activity occurs.

A specific case was when a graduate student in Connecticut got arrested for a RICO bust over Bronx gang activity because he featured people in his neighborhood in his amateur hip-hop videos. The federal prosecutor threatened him with the death penalty so he pled guilty to a weed trafficking charge and ended up getting kicked out of college right before graduation and lost his scholarship/financial aid. He’s delivery DoorDash right now.
