Good Monday afternoon in New York City, where these jamps could be yours! Here's what else is happening:
- Rep. Chris Jacobs, a Buffalo-area Republican who came out in support of an assault weapons ban after a mass shooting at a Buffalo grocery store, faced immediate and intense backlash from party leaders and Donald Trump Jr. and has now announced that he won't run for reelection.
- Mayor Eric Adams said he called 911 and then rushed to the scene himself after a relative called him from a Hell's Kitchen ferry terminal yesterday claiming she saw men in hoodies talking about "shooting." The cops never saw these suspects — even after the mayor apparently held up incoming and outgoing boats — but Adams still commended his relative for "saying something."
- An MTA worker is suing the transit agency for discrimination because he got demoted and has to attend drug counseling for his use of legal medical cannabis.
- LaGuardia's renovated terminals are very nice, but that doesn't help the fact that getting to the airport is a nightmare.
- "It was overfilled to the brim." Behold this review of a port-a-potty in Prospect Park.
- Writer and comedian Julio Torres has a sick office in Greenpoint.
- Speaking of the office, it's fine to show up in shorts.
- Arriving to things on time is cool now.
- Here are some messy pics of the Platinum Jubilee.

Being reigning champions is weird for Knicks fans, but we could get used to this.
Seeing high hopes dashed had become so routine, it was part of our identity. This year feels different.
