Does the internet have a Philly accent? Why too much time online can make you β€˜culturally Philadelphian.’ Perhaps certain online corners have a special Philly pull.

"Spend enough time in certain corners of the internet, and you risk becoming spiritually and culturally Philadelphian." Gift link, because Philadelphians are kind and welcoming. Go Birds. share.inquirer.com/nhONWX

Becoming a Phillies fan might be the dumbest thing I’ve done all year.

My favorite part about all these publications writing about a "high-speed rail line" that will "go from LA to NYC in 72 hours" and be "operating in time for the World Cup" is that literally none of them stopped to look up the fact that Amtrak does this trip in less time right now

One time I was eating lunch in the park and I over heard the grounds keeping staff discussing why the trees were dying: β€œthey put in an irrigation system but didn’t know how to turn it on”.

🚨 STAND UP FOR TENANTS!

The landlord lobby is putting intense pressure on City Council (especially CMs Bass, Jones, and Squilla) because they don’t want to be held accountable for making essential repairs and following the law.

Our email tool makes it easy to show our collective power!

Amazed to be part of a crowd of 1000 all shouting about redundancy and making bridges more rigid.

Jokes aside, I’m so thankful to have these three in my life. @wtyppod.bsky.social has changed the way I think about so many things. Train good, car bad!

Yesterday, thousands of working class Philadelphians took to the streets with a clear message: Workers Over Billionaires!

Now more than ever, we need a fighting labor movement to resist the barbaric attacks on workers everywhere by Trump and the billionaire class.

Hold your union accountable.

Bad unions exist. It’s what they talk about in the media when they complain about unions. You are responsible for holding your union accountable. Demand justice. Demand accountability.

8 years ago I watched videos of the 2011 tsunami to bring down my anxiety. Now I’m watching tornado videos.

Nothing like something really terrible to make you feel better and put the other stuff in perspective.
