Standing at the subway entrance, sliding my card repeatedly, getting an error message, seconds go by, rising panic fueled by cold/financial insecurity/life dissatisfaction/the feeling that New York City has been holding my head in a toilet and flushing. Young guy comes up behind me and says something I cant understand, holding his card to swipe it. Thinking he wants to cut in because Im taking so long, but knowing that if I stop swiping, the machine might reject my card outright, I throw up my hands in disgust and step back. He swipes his card. Go, go! he says. He has been watching my failure and has stopped his own progress through this incredibly unforgiving city to pay for my ride.
