Oh I love to hear the perspective of someone from Jersey on the ending with Jersey City! I did like it but also was unsure about it, but also, see above, re: being from Philly, which gives me a different angle on regional politics ... I do think I would have loved it really wholeheartedly if it had been framed less as "well, we can just swap out Jersey City for Staten Island which we don't like anyway."

oh god I also wished DESPERATELY for a Jewish avatar but then I was like, hmm, am I just being the 'I am uncomfortable when we are not about me?' birb ... But that I think once again gets into the difficulty of having all the representation metaphorically channeled into just six people, because there are so many different cultures who could justifiably say, "well, we're such an essential part of New York and its history and culture, shouldn't at least one of us be --" and you literally can't have all of them but also, how can you not??
