I feel the same way, like I take a gamble every time I cross Columbus and Marin

Agreed. Especially in the evening/weekends/holidays when everyone feels free to drive drunk or high because they know literally no one will pull them over.

We all perceive this, the fact that the JCPD has basically abdicated on traffic stops means that a certain percentage of drivers and riders, that we call "assholes", do whatever they want with impunity, like the wrong way that u/DirectorBeneficial48 mentioned. I've posted videos of 'left on reds'. I think most people try to be considerate, but some just operate like everyone else in the world are NPCs in their game. The possible exception is Ebike riders who universally ignore every and all traffic laws.

Only biscuits and gravy I'll eat north of the Mason Dixon line, but I don't love their breakfast sandwiches.

Wouldn’t it be great if everyone followed the rules and stay in the paths specifically designed for their mode of transportation?

Latham House and Mathew’s are good sit down brunch spots. Scram has my favorite breakfast sandwich (ham with pineapple jam), but they’re only open 8am-12pm, Thurs-Sun.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you

You should certainly be aware, cautious and alert, but if you find yourself feeling continuously unsafe you may be suffering from generalized anxiety and should look into ways to alleviate that.
Robin.

LOVED Sam AM the time I went with a friend visiting from out of town. Small place but felt cozy and the food and service were great.

>it's the fault of humanity as a whole.
It's very much made worse by a small select group of giant assholes. Just the other day I told off a stupid ass soccer mom who was rolling quickly through every single stop sign in Paulus Hook including going past 2 schools in session. She didn't stop for people on corners walking, cars already stopped at other stop signs already, etc.
She is a serious danger to everyone especially children and if I see her roll through stop signs again I will 100% publicly shame her on repeat since I know where she parks.

City Diner is closed for indoor dining right now. They are doing renovations - takeout only.

Reply to Portside Towers advocates again dominate Jersey City Council meeting over rent increases by ComeBackAndHauntMe
The city doesn't want rent control. Where do you think all these Fulop campaign funds come from? They certainly aren't coming from the Portside Towers Tenant Associations. And therefore, Mayor Steven Fulop doesn't give a flying fuck about enforcing rent control for these folks.

Anyone can eat there and I'm hoping they'll expand their hours like the Red Bank restaurant.

Umm.....you stole this art/map from someone else...what a shame...get a life!
But...I've got an original idea for you. Make a shirt (for yourself) that says "I <3 Stealing Art"

>Newport has Swarovski as well, and Express which I'd call upper-middle class tier.
Yeah.. no. Absolutely no one knowledgeable thinks of Swarovski and Express as upper middle class stuff. AT ALL. None of these are upscale, high-end brands.

The fact that you're aware of all the problems simply means you're a person cognizant of their surroundings. It's not the fault of a driver or a person on a bike, it's the fault of humanity as a whole.
Earlier this week, I was riding on my bike - in the bike lane (left side of the street) - getting close to an intersection (9th and Monmouth). A car speeds up in front of me, makes a left turn going the wrong way down a one way street (9th) to drive about 30 feet to pull into a parking lot.
People are fucking stupid. It shouldn't be this way, but it is.

Not OP BUT I find myself feeling continuously unsafe because I see how people drive and it is blatantly obvious that they have no regard for human life. The lack of traffic enforcement has given sociopathic drivers a free pass to do whatever they please.
