          Gag me with those comments.

          I hope Bread-Stuy can figure it out.

          OMG the WANK on Brownstoner is UNBELIEVABLE. I wish Bread-Stuy the best of luck in re-opening and getting their tax ducks in a row. As a small-business owner myself, I know how difficult it can be.

          Bread-Stuy is going to be fine. They’re back up and running and the community is doing itself proud by rallying around them and lifting them up. The tax issue is more than half resolved, and they will do what is needed to gear for a prolonged recession. And we will be there to help. The fools on Brownstoner, aside from being hateful, callous, and uninformed, wouldn’t know solidarity and community economics if their own lives depended on it. Rent parties and the like are deeply woven into our culture and economy. It’s happened before and it will happen again. Everyone, check out the FB page and do your part to help! There are cool events and we’re getting this done in the spirit of community and we’re not afraid to turn it into a party. PEACE.
