Early Addition: My Chemical Romance have earned themselves the keys to Belleville, New Jersey
Aug. 8, 2025, 10:30 a.m.
Because the certified local legends are playing MetLife Stadium tomorrow, here are your early links: Tiny apartments for median earners, Trump defunding McGruff the Crime Dog, hot Bobbys and more.

Good Friday morning in New York City, where this house on Staten Island is tight.
Here's what else is happening:
- The city's medical examiner has identified three more victims of the Sept. 11 attacks based on DNA samples from the site.
- Officials may have strong-armed Citi Bike into limiting the speed of its e-bikes, but for all the other e-bikers zipping around, is there any way to actually enforce the 15 mph speed limit?
- If you make New York City's median household income — $77,000 a year — you can afford a 275 square foot Manhattan apartment, according to a recent number crunch.
- The Trump administration is defunding McGruff the Crime Dog's PSA campaign against fentanyl and counterfeit pill abuse.
- Belleville, New Jersey's own My Chemical Romance will be handed the keys to the city at their MetLife Stadium show tomorrow.
- There's a new podcast for women with young kids who have careers, go to the gym and try to eat healthy.
- Has anyone been hotter than a Bobby in the late 50s/early 60s?
- Clown town.
- And finally, New York City could use more Bennys:
This is Benny. He is such a good boy that he carries his own poop on his walks. 13/10 for taking care of business pic.twitter.com/ZTz87HlWy2
