I like cities and electric cars and the eagles.

Start lifting weights if you don’t already. Women, lift heavier than you think you can; you will not get buff, but you will get strong!

In Philly it’s darkly tinted covers, little metal police badges that stuck through the plate and block 2 letters/numbers, flippers, or straight up fake paper temp tags.

As a 41 year old trying to memorize lyrics from a fav band’s new album - their first in 18 years - I can attest

That’s the third of three reasons Schumer gave to the NYT for The Daily’s (podcast) episode that aired today.

I actually needed something from the HUD website today and…. Oof!

In Philly we get assaulted with smells and smoke. Anti social behavior is definitely a problem but it’s not a safety issue to hear someone curse or blast music.

Philly here and I was about the same age when I started to ride our β€œEl” (short for elevated, which it is on both ends and underground through center city)

Best news I’ll hear all day!

Doctor Stanford cared for my itty bitty baby years ago as a pediatric surgeon and her care for him (and us, as scared new parents) remains the best care I’ve received in my life.

Philly and the US will be lucky to have her.

This!!

It’s not hysteria, it’s a very real possibility. It only took a few years for Iran to go from women should be covered to women must be covered in government buildings to women must be covered in public to you’re allowed to beat uncovered women if you see them.

Before the election I also mused on the Bad Site that they’d eventually make it so women can’t drive.

I was called hysterical of course. But is that claim really any more far fetched or unbelievable than the things we’ve already seen? Not really.

Also for the lazy, cliffs notes folks among us, The Daily did an episode about what a second term might look like.

I listened for about 40 mins of explaining how guardrails would be removed.

All true. All laid out in crystal clear words.

Zero surprises today.

Within 7 days, I had one man talk down to me for never using AI at work and one man talk down to me for using AI (for the first time) at work.

For once in my life I kept my mouth shut but the words on my tongue were:

How dare you? You’d never ask that question if a man said they were leaving that job!

What I actually said was: what I do is very specialized and in demand so I’ll do it all over the country now instead

Me, to a random member of the public who called me at work:
I’m actually leaving so here’s a phone number
Him: oh wow
Me: yeah, 19 years is a good run
Him: do you have kids?
Me: yeah
Him: are you gonna stay home and take care of them?

Me: what!? No!

It’s always temporarily confusing when you hear a long O cheer that sounds like a boo (Deuuuuuuce, Cooooooppo) but when the Eagles make a good tackle and you hear a boo… but you’re away… but it’s Tampa and there are more Eagles fans there than Bucs…

It takes a minute

Ooh, my actual area of expertise is affordable housing development if you ever want to chat.

EVs are (were) just a hobby

That people completely ignore driving rules.

He’s so smart and funny and mostly very sweet but can be stubborn and rolls his eyes a million times a day. The perfect combo lol

My 7 year old, who is playing in the basement alone, just noticed my laundry being done in the dryer. A small load of white towels, not related to him or his clothes.

He took it out and carried it upstairs to me just because β€œI heard it beep”

I have never (and planned to will never) wanted nor needed a pickup truck in any capacity whatsoever.

If this hits the US I will buy it for myself.

Also, if any of your followers (here or elsewhere) have questions about life in the great northeast, send them my way.

The commute to center city can be soul crushing (unless you’re near a regional rail stop) but otherwise, wonderful. Green space and convenient to many things! Diverse to boot.

100?!?! I always assumed it was built in the 1980s or 90s but in a style to look older.

Cool!

Also, a dream for someone with playground aged kids or who likes to golf.

Thank you! My new rider is only 7 so his max is about 6 miles total. Any flat-ish trail with out traffic that we can just go a little ways and turn around is ideal.
