To be clear - I’m a big fan of this program, know a lot of fine folks are working hard putting it together - just having a little fun! 💕

@bfurnas If you can make it here…

@mattyglesias Only in New York!

@bfurnas I'm glad they're piloting this first. So much uncertainty with an innovation like this one. Wouldn't want to roll it out too quickly.

@RachelBarkow It’s not easy being at the cutting edge, but our civilization was forged by the risk-takers, the innovators, the pioneers.

@bfurnas So nice to have a mayor focused on everyday quality of life issues instead of big theoretical questions or national issues they use as a springboard for a presidential run.

@NormalTater I like the initiative a lot! Just having a little fun.

@bfurnas Boo!

@bfurnas lol

@bfurnas Seems like containerizing would provide a good opportunity for some degree of mechanization so the workers don’t have to break their backs tossing bags all day but what do I know.

@bfurnas It's like the moon landing all over again...!

@bfurnas It was almost a year ago when Mayor Adams held his first press conference touting his ground-breaking initiative to put bins in Times Square. Fast forward to today, and a whole city block gets to enjoy this new utopia!

@bfurnas Just a decade or two until you get wheelie-bins

@bfurnas Seems a lot better than the big piles of trash bags that used to just sit in the open on trash day. Good job NYC.

@bfurnas Meanwhile, in modern societies

@bfurnas they just installed a telegram machine on my block

@bfurnas New Yorkers will soon be telling outsiders about trash containers the way they tell everyone about bodegas now.

@bfurnas Did New York just not have garbage bins for houses/apartments that were picked up, or am I missing something??

@bfurnas the greatest country in the world just upgraded from having rubbish lay on the floor. god bless the USA
