Today's one of those all-too-familiar days where our civilization seems to be teetering on the brink of collapse, and routine disruptions to our city's infrastructure pale a bit in comparison to massive disruptions in international relations. Still, even the Brexit can't keep the weekend from rolling around, and with it comes the annual Pride March, which perhaps you thought you'd get to by subway. With changes on 14 trains this weekend, that might be easier said than done.
Here's what's on tap:
