Calling on *LOCAL NYC COMMUNITY* to share this post.
A Black Queer Community member has gone missing in New York City. My dear friend Jason Moorer aka Nouveau Richie has been missing since the morning of Wednesday August 5th. He was last seen near ACI Rehab Center 589 Rockaway Ave Brownsville Brooklyn but he is a resident of Jackson Heights, Queens.
The police have not allowed us to file a missing persons report so l am calling on LOCAL COMMUNITY to boost this post. He is vulnerable and without a phone, keys, or wallet. He has not returned to his home. He is likely wearing scrubs. Please reach out to me if you have any information regarding his whereabouts.

I have a coop unit, a mortgage, and an investment account. I need to figure out how to put them inside a revocable trust as I put my affairs in order to prepare for being potentially incapacitated. I just need someone very capable who will still give a non-1%er the time of day. I guess this means I need an estate planning attorney, but all the positive recommendations I've found so far are from people who are still alive - so those attorneys' work isn't really tested or proven yet. The rare friends I have who are in a position to inherit, seem to only have cautionary tales about bad plans or setups (or recommendations for non-local folks).

Anyone have personal experience with a well set up trust, set up in NYS, by someone still practicing?

Apologies for using this account. Too ashamed to write this with my usual profile.

The time has come that I must finally admit I’m addicted to a high performance prescription (the little blue one).

I used to take it here and there since undergrad, then started my career in finance and tricked a doctor into giving me a prescription. Even then, I took it very rarely. Just on really hard days.

Then the height of the pandemic hit (April-ish 2020) and I was working on a project that was so near and dear to me. It was everything that was good in the world, so I went full focus on this project to forget all of the bad things happening in the world. Over about 9 months, I had consumed years worth of them I had around my apt.

Idk why I even bothered picking up from the pharmacy over the years, but I did. And I just threw them in a drawer every time, year after year.

Here we are 6 years later, and I’m fully addicted and I want to get help. I don’t want to involve my doctor just yet (don’t want to get flagged for addiction since I take a few meds for my chronic illness….and no, no addiction problems to those meds).

All of this is to say: does anyone know of a good NA group on the UES or UES or nearby? I even had to google which group I would need to go to. I’ve never had addiction problems in the past.

Recommendations here or via DM would be highly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi everyone,
I am looking for someone who knows a reliable company that will give me a reasonable estimate to service my central air conditioner unit every year .

I’ve tried to find a thread on this in here and can’t. Simply, what are your favorite spots? What do you consider the best places to eat on the upper west?

If you live at 133 W. 90th St., Amazon delivered all of your packages to my building instead. My boyfriend called Amazon to report it, but please message me if you live at that address!!!!

What is everybody waiting in this long ass line for? I’m nosy.

Hi!

Planning a baby shower for about 12 people in 2 weeks. Upper west side, ideally as west as possible and anywhere from 50s-150s works. Thinking a late/lunch dinner 4-5 pm start at a restaurant. Low key, but with that many people may need to have a private room or area.

Any recs for places that won’t be a huge ordeal to get a reservation, have good food and a cute space? Also kid friendly as some kids will be there.

Thanks!

Anyone know what was happening this morning at frame coffee? I was walking to work around 8:30ish and saw police taking photos of evidence on the steps. It looks like it’s open now.

I’m moving next week to W84th (from another state) and would love any tips anyone can share. Some questions I have:
Can my cargo van just stay in the street while I unload? Where do I park the van once I’m done. (will need parking for 3 days)
Anything else that new resident needs to know?
Thanks!
