Why I don’t worry about stuff. Reason number 43: Back at the tun of the 20th century, I understand that a very serious concern for NYC city planners was what did the future hold regarding dealing with the massive tonnage of horse chit they had to remove every day.

Oddly, that seems to no longer be an issue.

What a bunch of sour/dour looking people. Throw in the squalid living conditions, rampant disese, etc., and it must have sucked living back then.

“dealing with the massive tonnage of horse chit they had to remove every day.”

At 2:23 titled Tiffany’s Union Square appears to be an early model Tesla.
Horsepower, but no horse shite.

Is that Nikola driving?
