1. NY NY, so great they named it twice... As a NY'er, guess I can say that... WTF?

2. Oh my, how are those trains even running?

This cannot be safe for anyone!

3. They are stopping the trains

before the flooded stations, turning them back around.

4. Wouldn't it be easier to just walk a few blocks to the next stop?

Rather than swim through water potentially contaminated with all sorts of street dirt, toxins, rat turds, and stray high-voltage flows?

cray cray

7. When I lived on the Upper West Side (West 88th/B-Way), our station used to get like that

after a really bad storm. Of course they block it off and close it down. The water would be running down the stairs like a waterfall.

But then you were stuck with the options of either a bus or a taxi along with everyone else who now was not taking the subway, so it would just be a nightmare, especially if you worked way downtown. You could walk and I often did, but it just takes a long time.

8. Subway trains are powered by electricity...

Water and electricity are a bad combination.

10. Hey, Sens. Manchin and Sinema

Can we hurry things up and get Biden's infrastructure bill passed? Us NYers don't want to swim through our subway tunnels.
