Thanks to Brent for sending word. For Five’s website says:
“For Five was founded in 2010 by two best friends from Queens who wanted to introduce specialty coffee by New Yorkers for the world. Stefanos Vouvoudakis and Tom Tsiplakos, the founders of For Five, met in third grade in their Whitestone, Queens classroom and have been working together ever since. The two ventured into the specialty coffee roasting and wholesale business and built their roasting facility in Maspeth, Queens. At first, they sold their roasted beans to restaurants and other wholesale accounts before opening their first cafe on West 46th Street in Manhattan in 2016 — right in Times Square.” (more…)

“Dear Popville-
I’m leaving my job after what has been a very toxic year at my company. I’m still looking for another permanent position but I know that might be a little difficult heading into the holiday season. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas for some gig, temp, or freelance work? (I don’t have a car so any of the driver apps won’t work)
Thank you!
-Disgruntled employee”
Oh dear. Thanks to Veronica for sending. Umm. Wow. Maybe it’s a service animal? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I mean it’s good she put the blanket down but…OK then – see y’all tomorrow.

Ed. Note: Yesterday we heard the other side.
From Councilmember Grosso’s office:
“The following is Councilmember David Grosso’s opening statement delivered at the Committee on Judiciary and Public Safety hearing on the Community Safety and Health Amendment Act of 2019, which would abandon the District of Columbia’s criminalization approach to sex work in favor of one that focuses on human rights, health, and safety:
“Thank you, Councilmember Allen, for convening this hearing today.
“This is a historic occasion as we consider how we as the government and the community should treat commercial sex and, most importantly, how we can better protect the human rights of the people involved.
“Earlier this year, along with Councilmembers Robert White, Brianne Nadeau, and Anita Bonds, I introduced the bill before us today, the Community Safety and Health Amendment Act of 2019.
“Over the past 3 years I developed this legislation in close partnership with the Sex Worker Advocates Coalition, and the bill is in line with recommendations from Amnesty International, the World Health Organization, U.N. AIDS, Human Rights Watch, and numerous other human rights, public health, and anti-trafficking organizations.
“Since coming into office, I have met with and listened to sex workers and other people who trade sexual services for money as well as survivors of human trafficking.
“I met with them because all of my work at the Council is grounded in a human rights and racial equity framework.
“That means looking out for the human rights of the most marginalized communities, including people in the sex trade, and reconsidering policies that perpetuate racism.
“In listening to those most directly affected, I heard how criminalization and stigma cause tremendous harm to people in the sex trade. (more…)
