Steve Budd wondered why other people could tie the knot and he couldn't. Oy, did he wonder! So he asked a bunch of couples what brought them together and keeps them from pulling apart. Meet a couple who met on Craigslist, a pair who met at a Halloween party, and more. Budd plays close to a dozen characters and weaves in his relentless, heartfelt, and hilarious search for "the one."

On Saturday, they were spotted heading to a friend's wedding in Bushwick (or East Williamsburg, depending on who you ask), Brooklyn. The pair was photographed holding hands as they walked into Honey's cocktail bar, with Swift in a gold Maria Lucia Hohan silk cutout floor-length dress priced at $2,280, according to People, and Kelce in a black pinstripe suit.

At 3:30 p.m. on a Friday, Cathy Tie sat in Carnegie Hall, wearing a pink sweatsuit bedazzled with cherries, eating a gyro. Tonight was her 30th-birthday party. She'd had a bad year. So she rented out Zankel Hall, which, it turns out, is a thing you can do: Call Carnegie, get the rate sheet, send money. Done. Zankel is graciously wood-paneled with only slight vibrations rumbling up from the Seventh Avenue subway, and it was very empty.

“Summoning a wizard who can nudify her,” wrote an anonymous 4chan user last week, posting on the site's /r/ board, a hub for “adult requests” of specific explicit imagery. Attached to the post was an image of a blonde woman in glasses, an open black jacket, white tank top, and ripped jeans, posing on a low wall with a sweeping view of an old-world city and a river behind her. It's the kind of picture you'd see on a friend's Instagram account during their vacation in Europe. On the left edge of the image, you can see that someone else has been cropped out of the photo.”

Eryka Caldwell, a 41-year-old transgender woman described as beloved by her community, was stabbed to death in her Bushwick, Brooklyn apartment on Sunday morning.

He notified everybody that he was in hospice, so it was just a matter of time. He was certainly at peace with himself. He certainly left a mark, and he was a leader on on civil rights, on gay rights, on leading other marginalized communities, and then he helped the country get through the 2008 financial crisis, which was the most significant recession, depression, almost since 1930. So, I think he was a very, very important actor in the country during those times.

We just saw last week, The New York Times, of all media outlets, release a fictitious, fantastical story about dogs raping men. The insanity of it all, Leiter said. If they think that they can release a story like this, which is the imagination of a journalist, and not have it not result in people getting injured, they're making a huge mistake. He continued, They're contributing to this violence that we're seeing on the streets and this dramatic rise in antisemitism, attacks on Jewish institutions around the country.

Quite possibly her single most widely known piece of writing, the piece relates her encounters both direct and indirect with participants in the counterculture both obscure and prominent. That latter group includes no less a San Francisco hippie institution than the Grateful Dead, Didion's interview with whom didn't make it into the final piece. But over nearly six decades since then, its type-script has remained among her papers, and it was recently discovered in Didion and John Gregory Dunne's literary archive at the New York Public Library by Timothy Denevi.

To completely transform modern New York City back to the 1880s, the crew laid down massive textured carpets over the asphalt to perfectly mimic historic stone streets. There are over 350 background actors fully dressed in period-accurate costumes, alongside dozens of real horse-drawn carriages filling the block.

Hundreds of lawful permanent residents with green cards received free legal assistance with their naturalization application process at the City University of New York's (CUNY) annual Spring Citizenship Drive on May 16. The event, part of CUNY's Citizenship Now! program, was held at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in Upper Manhattan. Organized in partnership with Univision Nueva York, the event brought together staff and volunteers to help eligible immigrants complete their U.S. citizenship applications; 273 applicants were at the drive.

“DOJ has proven unworthy of this trust at every point in this case,” said Judge Mary McElroy in a ruling this week, quashing one of the DOJ's subpoenas. “It has misrepresented and withheld information to both this Court and the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (the 'Texas court'). It did so in an obvious effort to shield its recent investigative tactics-previously rejected by every other court to review them-from this Court's review, in favor of a distant forum that DOJ deems friendly to its political positions.”

Macy's is going bigger than ever for this year's Macy's 4th of July Fireworks, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this summer. In honor of the anniversary as well as the 250th birthday of the United States, Macy's 4th of July Fireworks will expand to both the lower East River in the Seaport District, the lower Hudson River in collaboration with Jersey City, and the Brooklyn Bridge, connecting all the communities to watch.
