1 "nonprofit" is a tax structure & does not confer moral supremacy
2 This study should be viewed as critically as climate change reports funded by energy companies
3 Lower rents in older buildings only occur by allowing more expensive new construction

Went to visit my in-laws for Christmas and, in a show of dominance, wore my β€œ#1 Dad” socks

This doesn’t say the costs are going up, it says the proportion of their budget is going up. Sounds like CCRA has a revenue issue.

Maybe if they weren’t a pay-to-play NIMBY organization (you aren’t allowed to participate in zoning matters w/o ponying up) they could get more dues paying members

It’s cost $77 per adult and $47 per child to go go Medieval Times- highway robbery

So the thing with this Facebook commercial- the one dude gets out of the taxi and lights are clearly on in the dining room light to his left, but then the shot of him in the house is completely dark.

Sloppy work Mark, sloppy

Does Roman Mejia imply the existence of an Ottoman Mejia or a Byzantine Mejia? There’s definitely an Incan Mejia out there

Reduce the CDL weight requirement from 26,000lbs to 4,000lbs and watch all these monster SUV grocery haulers disappear, while auto makers scramble to produce sensibly sized cars

It should be reversed- Resign to Run should only apply to electeds

Why should a staffer making <$80k a year (& with a lower public persona) have to give up their job to run for office, but a sitting City Council member making >$150k (and all the trappings of their office) could keep their seat?

Is calling a first draft a β€œsloppy copy” a Southeast PA thing?

My kid called it that (bringing back memories for me) and my wife (who grew up in NYC) had never heard the term before

Mamdani was elected because of Ranked Choice. Bringing that to PA could unite the anti-establishment movements that cannibalize each other

Like imagine if the Gym/Rhynhart supporter split didn’t become so nasty, and instead they built a cross-endorsement coalition with Domb- would Parker be mayor?

If last night you told me Wrexham would earn a point against Middlesbrough I would have been happy. But today it’s hard to feel like they didn’t drop 2 points

West Philly Tool Library could move to 4900 Spruce, they have unused ground floor space that could have been commercial except for NIMBYs (1 person specifically)

I wonder if this truly qualifies as a commercial use though? Either way- bring the Tool Library to Garden Court!

Did we just sacrifice Penn State, the Phillies and the Eagles to get Embiid a ring?
