News and notes from around the interweb:
- A viral TikTok clip capturing a hotel employee’s theatric evasion to sidestep interacting with a patron has amassed several million views. The footage, believed to be from a security camera, showcases a hotel staff member at the reception desk engaging in a comical escape. The text superimposed on the video humorously conveys the employee’s reluctance: “When you’re a hotel employee who’d rather not engage with guests in the morning.”
The woman is seen dramatically plunging to the ground and crawling stealthily across the lobby, inadvertently causing a chair to spin out of control, before she vanishes off-screen. Shortly thereafter, a guest makes an appearance, only to find the reception area unmanned.

- $420 million *per gate* is literally insane.
We're completely transforming @JFKairport, and that includes a $4.2 billion, 10-gate, 1.2 million square foot new Terminal 6.
Take a sneak peek at the new terminal, expected to open in 2026: https://t.co/myZZnitvYY#ANewJFK

If you think $420M per gate is insane, just wait until you see the concession prices they need to recoup that. At least the $55 burger will come with fries. 😀
That 4.2 billion is half kick backs to all the mobsters,contractors and holier-than-thou NYC politicians
@JOJO … +1 . Hey , it’s Noo Yawk . The insane fine levied against Trump is already being being divvied up .
I believe that they’re building a terminal along with the gates. Still awfully pricey though.
Regarding the price of building 10 gates at JFK: This is why we can’t have nice things anymore.
The kick backs on that construction have to be enormous
