WTH… I’m so freakin’ annoyed! The ONLY reason I bought my hybrid was because of the Clean Pass program — being able to ride solo in the HOV lane. And now? Just like that, it’s gone.

As of Sept 30, 2025, those Clean Pass stickers mean nothing. No more HOV perks for single-occupant EVs or hybrids. Back to sitting in traffic with everyone else.

Real Talk: This feels like a bait-and-switch. How many of you made the same investment thinking this would last? How are you feeling about this sudden change?

👇 Vent below. Let’s talk about it.

Big changes are coming for NYC transit + the LIRR in January 2026

👋 Say goodbye to the MetroCard — hello OMNY (tap-and-go with your phone, card, or smartwatch).

But here’s the catch:
💸 Subway fare goes from $2.90 ➡️ $3.00
💸 Single Ride ticket: $3.25 ➡️ $3.50
💸 Express bus: $7 ➡️ $7.25
💸 LIRR/Metro-North tickets: Up to 8% more
💸 Tolls: Up 7.5% at bridges + tunnels

✨ What’s new:
✔️ Rolling fare caps — ride 12 times in a week, the rest are free
✔️ CityTicket stays — $5.25 off-peak, $7.25 peak
✔️ Family Fare expanded — kids 5–17 ride for $1 with an adult
✔️ OMNY cards last 5 years (but cost $2 once MetroCard disappears)

🎤 Real talk: Tap-and-go is progress. No more swiping struggles 🙌. But for commuters already feeling the squeeze, these hikes will sting.

👉 What do you think? Is OMNY worth the price hike, or just another burden for riders? Drop your thoughts ⬇️

Wouldn’t it be awesome if there was bridge to Long Island from Connecticut?

24 years later, from the Hamptons to NYC, we remember. Our small towns may be miles away, but the impact of 9/11 is part of our story too. We honor the lives lost, the courage of first responders, and those who still carry the weight of that day. 🕊️

Southampton & East End Housing Crisis
Here’s the truth: There isn’t a single state in America where a full-time, minimum-wage job can cover the rent for a modest two-bedroom apartment.

Right here in Southampton and across the East End, teachers, nurses, firefighters, and restaurant workers—the very people who keep our communities alive—are being priced out.

💡 Average rent in NYC? $3,500+.
💡 Housing wage needed for a 2-bedroom? $33.63/hour.
💡 What locals actually earn? Way less.

Affordable housing isn’t about lowering standards—it’s about keeping real people in our communities. Without it, the East End becomes a playground for some, and impossible for others.

It’s that time of the year again in the Hamptons.
From traffic jams to tumbleweeds overnight, Welcome to Tumbleweed Tuesday—the Hamptons’ unofficial holiday! Yesterday: packed beaches, no parking, and 2-hour waits for brunch. Today: wide-open roads, empty tables, and locals finally reclaiming Main Street. 🥂

Real talk, real people—we survived another Hamptons summer. Tap the link in bio to read the full blog + laugh with me about our annual post-Labor Day ghost town transformation.
