We went. It exceeded my expectations and also was the medicine my weary soul needed. So good.

You’re doing it right from what I can tell

Best collective application of white privilege that I’ve seen in a while.

Did not know homeowners / renters insurance could be tapped for food loss. Great info in this thread ⬇️

Every once and a while, I get bummed and think about how big of an impact The Confluence would be making in Pittsburgh right now if it hadn't been canceled. The discussions with mayoral candidates outside of contentious debates, interviews with heads of museums whose funding is being cut, and more.

The person who posted about it in the nhood’s FB group said something about the Diocesan rules related to items that have a β€œsacred” classification being prohibited from being moved or repurposed…or something along those lines?

I saw a lengthy post in the Bloomfield fb group by someone who tried seemingly very hard to at least save the mosaic / stained glass.

Probably worth saving this number

The work done in DPW was one of the greatest accomplishments that way too few people know about and the largest newspaper in the region won’t dare tell you about.

Delivering excellent city services must start with first delivering a safe workplace where staff want to stay because they feel valued.

And about repeatedly denigrating the entire comp plan process - which the city’s planning department has been begging for for years.

Very unappreciated how hard DOMI has been crushing it these past couple years!

β€œAccording to a memo released this month, all of the team's recommendations are required to be completed within six months of the site visit. They're often completed far sooner, though.”

This was always one of the best days to work in city hall. The joy these folks and their families radiate at these ceremonies is so special.

I donno who needs to hear this, but do not apologize for asking people whose homes your children will be playing in if they own guns. Let’s normalize this, please.

Scott Bricker: Safe, vibrant and thriving β€” Penn Avenue needs a better design In his column ”Don’t mess with the Strip” (March 15, TribLive), Joseph Sabino Mistick paints a romantic picture of the Strip District, a neighborhood that has grown and evolved over ...

β€œPittsburgh’s Strip District is still evolving, just as it has for decades. The idea that it should remain frozen in time, untouched by improvements that make it safer and more functional, ignores the very spirit of adaptation that has always defined this neighborhood.”

Drive the extra mile down 28 and exit Chestnut Street, turn right onto Troy Hill Road. So worth not dealing with Rialto’s sideswipe anxiety.

Had my first (multiple) bathing suit clad sunbather sightings today while out n about in 50something degrees. I love Pgh.

FYI - Tawana ended up winning after the recount!

We found the artist-made posters of the Syracuse Cultural Workers to be a simple jumping off point.

The solutions to many of our modern-day problems (and our strike demands) are often not flashy, super futuristic, or new in terms of process. To build community is inherently anti-capitalistic.

But they changed the call in the school board D1 race - Tawana Cook Purnell won the endorsement following the recount!

I’ve found it to be functionally pretty similar to Twitter without all the bots and bigotry 😬

She narrowly lost, and is one of three races (including the mayoral one) where they are doing a recount today.
