Set it on fire and it’s a completely appropriate mascot for this administration

There is only one appropriate mascot for sanitation in nyc, and that’s Oscar the Grouch. If they can’t make that happen, skip the mascot entirely.

That dumpster looks high as fuck.

Edit: He also looks like he just asked you if you've ever been curious about getting a blowjob from another guy. And while the answer may be yes, you don't know him well enough to have that kind of conversation as he's a friend of a friend. Your'e now regretting coming over to smoke up and play Xbox, especially since your mutual friend is running way late and it's just the two of you in the meantime. That fucking smile is getting creepy, and the weed is hitting hard and you're starting to get paranoid that he might have put something else in it.

The best is when the news just showed a clip of Adams praising his administration and "all they've accomplished" and there was just this non-contextual giant trash bin behind him. So deliciously confusing yet appropriate.

"get stuff done" just doesn't sound right to me as a marketing slogan. "Stuff"....i dunno, it just makes it sound unimportant. "Get things done." sounds more constructive and planned out.

Adams is actually pretty good, though. I would've preferred Garcia, but FOH about having some Squad-adjacent Mayor like Wiley or that clown Yang.

In any event, if DSA/leftists didn't want Adams as Mayor, they shouldn't have spoiled their ballots after Wiley was eliminated, as 75,000 (or ~30%) of Wiley voters did. They could have ranked Garcia 2nd, who isn't a DSA-type but certainly more liberal than Adams.

But nope, DSA/leftists shooting themselves in the foot as always.

I opened this in a small window and didn't see the actual mascot and thought you were saying Eric Adams' administration is garbage and he was a weird choice to be its mascot. and I thought... well you're not wrong, but that's an interesting way to phrase that.

The health care is not what people think. So little doctors in NYC even take the city health care, and if they do it’s super long waits. People should work 10 years for the city and see what it’s actually like.

Why is it that NYC residents can’t seem to vote for a decent mayor. I mean, he’s better than DeBlasio, but like just barely. This has “eating fries and a burger at 9am, trying to convince people to get vaccinated” vibes.

Yes! Thank you! I still see these stickers occasionally on trash bins. Now I want to start a sub sighting them. There's a VERY old city recycling sign near us I've been tempted to nab. Gotta be late 80's, basically announcing what recycling is.

BigAppleGuy t1_j76fom3 wrote

I am 100% for this but realistically, there is a reason composting has been so slow to roll out. People are still working on basic recycling. Separating metal/cartons from paper/cardboard, knowing what is not trash and must be taken to 'e-cycle', knowing which styrofoams and plastics are and aren't recyclable, knowing to dispose paints and chemicals and . Not as simple as seems at first.
https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/dsny/site/services/recycling/what-to-recycle

'rat resistant containers' are the key, and trash needs to stay in them for the entire disposal cycle. Doesn't matter what time you put trash out ,if it's in plastic bags, rats will tear through it. 'Mint' bags must be just an appetizer for our monster rats lol. Need to line the streets with rat proof bins and system to pick up efficiently?
The Metrobins I get for my job cost 1,300+ for equivalent of two 50 gallon garbage cans. And then you still bag it and put it on curb where rats will get at it overnight.

Ilostmytractor t1_j781f2y wrote

Yes change is hard, but sometimes necessary. Fortunately we only need to put the food scraps in the rat resistant containers, which are provided free by the city, and there’s no sorting. If you eat it it goes in the food bin. You can acumúlate the scraps in a plastic bag in your apt. and throw it , bag and all, in the building food scrap bin. If you have your own bin , even easier. This way food is never left in appetizing bags outside. Less bugs, less smells, less rats, less trash to ship to Maryland or wherever it goes.

DeBlasio literally destroyed this city with his mishandling of funds and anti law enforcement attitude. Adams reintroduced anti gun units, instituted composting measures, enacted 24/7 speed cameras to help pedestrians feel safe, instructed all public schools to screen for dyslexia (instead of treating dyslexic students like they dont exist), and baselined summer employment for the youth.

DeBlasio said fck the police, free the prisoners, punish the working class, coddle the poor, and basically told anybody that asked questions about what happened to all the the mental health funding (that his wife stole) to fck off.

It's just wild you're in the NYC sub so presumably you're from here or had prolonged exposure to the countless and myriad freaks, weirdos, deranged maniacs, and that's just the Columbus day parade.

But your bete noire is some dude who you think talks sus. It just says volumes about how you decide to spend your time

Which is all an elaborate lead up to ask you an important question: are you planning on marching in the Columbus day parade this year?

Leftturnhopkins3 t1_j7ardh7 wrote

Waste management is becoming a major issue everywhere. Adding composting to their mix will be good for upstate farming. Currently farmers actually pay for composting, as it helps their topsoil replenish nutrients. Composting is a legitimate business when taken to its extreme, so NYC should be able to earn revenue from this.

Well-fitting slim, pressed coat. Spread collar. Wall street wannabe hermes-print tie, color pink. Pocket square. Earring. Starter high-end watch behind the podium (submariner or similar). Thousand-dollar shell cordovan dress shoes, or thousand dollar ferragamo-type loafers.

Garbage mascot.

Edit: Garbage motto too. “Get stuff done.” Shows you how much effort went into it. Lazy version of “Just Do It”, which is a zillion times better. Yet another example of corp america being far more competent than gov’t. I suppose that’s mostly always been true, but the gap at times now can be astonishingly big

Is he a mayor, or do we see two mascots in the image?
