Didn’t have a chance to try since I was otw somewhere, but it looks pretty good from the looks of its other locations (Bed-Stuy and LES). I will definitely try this weekend. I was super sad when Debbie’s closed last year. Hopefully this fills that hole!

Any NYC Creatives Interested in Collaborating on an Indie Music + Animation Show in Williamsburg on Nov 21?

2 Upvotes

Hey NYC creatives! 🎶🎬

I'm an independent musician and creator bringing The Jems Universe: Defining Moments Tour to a beautiful penthouse in Williamsburg on November 21, from 7–10 PM.

The Jems Universe started with my original music and is now evolving into an animated series. This intimate show will feature live performances of the original songs followed by a live table reading of our first animated script.

I'm independently funding this project and working with a very small budget, so I'm hoping to connect with some NYC creatives who would be excited to collaborate and help bring this experience to life!

WHO I'M LOOKING FOR:

🎸 Guitarist + Drummer; To accompany my original music live.

🎤 2 Female Voice Actors; To portray characters during our animated series script reading.

🎭 1 Versatile Voice Actor; Someone comfortable performing multiple characters, including male and female voices.

🔊 PA System / Sound Support; Looking to borrow, rent affordably, or collaborate with someone who has a small live performance setup suitable for a penthouse.

📸 Photographer and Videographer; To capture live performances, behind-the-scenes moments, audience interactions, and highlights from the show for future promotional content.

🤝 1–2 Event Volunteers; Help with guest check-in, setup, merchandise, and general event support.

A LITTLE ABOUT THE PROJECT:

I've been independently touring The Jems Universe throughout 2026, connecting with creative communities in Austin, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, and now New York.

My goal is to build an original entertainment universe that brings together music, animation, storytelling, and creative people.

This is a grassroots, passion-driven project. I can't promise standard industry rates, but I'm happy to discuss what I can offer, including creative credit, content from the event, networking, and opportunities for future collaboration.

If you're interested, comment below or DM me with what you do and a little about your experience!

Would also appreciate recommendations for NYC creative communities or anyone who might be a great fit.

— Hannah Jewel Clark aka Creator Jewels Creator of The Jems Universe

Spectrum or Verizon?

2 Upvotes

I just moved and have spectrum and it’s so bad. The person I spoke to said it’s a high traffic area but I lived a few blocks away with the same service and it was fine. Could it really be that different?!

Do you have Verizon and is it good? It’s also cheaper so….

Man assaulting Woman on Meserole Ave between Graham and Manhattan

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

21 Upvotes

5'5"-5'6" Asian man in his 20s, skinny build with medium-length curly hair was assaulting his girlfriend on Meserole near Graham, she kept telling him to leave her alone and was pushing him away, and he kept following her. Called the police but who knows how long they will take.

And to the three white women who did nothing except walk on by while this assault was happening, go fuck yourselves.

Edit: all the problematic people on these comments is why these men go free, half of them are probably abusive men themselves.

Halloween in Williamsburg?

0 Upvotes

Hey! I have some friends visiting from out of town for Halloween. Does anyone know anywhere in Williamsburg/East Williamsburg/Bushwick (or anywhere along the L tbh, even in Manhattan) that would be a good place to bring a group (~6 people) on Halloween? Open to different types of events, could be a local bar with an event, or a place with a good DJ set/party, could be ticketed or non-ticketed. Would love any recs!

Jewelry repair

1 Upvotes

Who are your favorite jeweler in the neighborhood that would be good for repair. I had a charm on a necklace, the chain was pretty crappy and it’s broken. I’m looking for a jeweler who could probably just sodder a jumper ring onto the charm so I could use it on a different necklace. Any ideas?

Thank you so much for your interest and for all the wonderful responses!

I honestly never expected such an overwhelming response, and I'm truly grateful to see so many people interested in learning Spanish!

Borrowing an H2S Gas Detector

2 Upvotes

Does anyone happen to have an H2S Gas Detector that they would be willing to lend me for an afternoon? My building is giving me the runaround on a really pungent smell, and I want to see if there’s anything I can do to back it up with some evidence. I’m around the Kellogg’s Diner - would appreciate and return the favor with a coffee!

EDIT: It is a sewage smell rather than gas, so I’m not too worried about natural gas rather looking for something that might be able to clue me in to hydrogen sulphide from sewage.
