“A police officer stationed in a public school tries to spot drug sales to students. ‘In this school the regular guards are useless,’ a teacher said. ‘With us it’s real police with real guns stationed in the halls. I am not a teacher, I’m a warden.’”
Police Work: Photographs by Leonard Freed, 1972-1979. On display at the Museum of the City of New York.

Agh. When the Ikea MALM 6-drawer dresser I just purchased falls apart after the next move, I promise I’ll buy you—the one I really want—to replace it. You just deserve more, West Elm Adams 6-Drawer Dresser, and I can’t give it to you right now.
I’m sorry.
Ohhhh

I truly believe that when men and women think about parking, their mental capacity reverts to the reptilian cortex of the brain. …How to get food, ritual display, territorial dominance—all these things are part of parking, and we’ve assigned it to the most primitive part of the brain that makes snap fight-or-flight decisions. Our mental capacities just bottom out when we talk about parking.
