Second Ave. Duke’s, pt. 2, moving from table to lounge. “Creepy” comment and virtue‐signaling about Southern racism. My smartphone ran out of power. שמואל got surprisingly loud as he led us to our next destination, Vinnie’s, 1603, for pizza, where a fairly large party appeared to give up their seats for us rather than linger, and where I urged us to do the same when we finished shortly after another party arrived.
E. 86th St. sta. at 02:00. Short Q ride with ש. and Dan. Failed attempt to document sleeping man with widely opened mouth on the F (1384).
Late‐night roadwork on 73rd St. at 37th Rd. (1385–87).
Left my smartphone charging at home as I got Buffalo wings, tuna salad, cheese chunks and Turkey Bologna from Ass’d/কাওরান (03:29), Roosevelt Ave., where رحمان was my handsome cashier.
