Yeah, so I definitely did a double take when seeing these signs. 😏
Feels like..... a letter just might be missing somehow? 😉

@StefanThinks did something happen over on Bluesky that is causing a migration here?
Hey there, internet friends. I feel like I make this request maybe once or twice a year, and I know that I generally come up with zilch... but here I go again: do I know *anybody* in New York City with a guest room who likes me enough to host me for a day or two? 😏🤞
It's not that I can't afford a hotel room when I travel. I generally can. But NYC seems uniquely positioned in the world of travel logistics in the sense that you all do not have your garden variety Courtyard Marriott or Doubletree Hilton for around $250/night...
In NYC, travelers seem to be presented with only three choices:
1. the most posh hotel you've ever heard of, for $1000/night at minimum
2. quirky boutique hotel with a 13 sq ft room, for $300/night (no rooms available)
3. battered and firebombed hostel with bunk beds bought at a Dresden fire sale, for $39/night (bag theft included for free)
... I'm just a guy trying to come into town for a weekend to see a play, hah. (And while I appreciate couch offers, I'm over 40 and no longer really do that, please forgive me for being posh)
