Are we going to be bailing on this one, too?

Welcome to Philly!

Adolescent is even stretching it for some.

Self-Generation Incentive Program The Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) helps qualified LADWP residential customers install solar and battery storage systems by providing financial incentives. This program supports clean energy...

This is amazing: @ladwp.com, the Los Angeles utility, has launched a program that will install solar+battery systems on qualifying low-to-moderate-income households, *for free*.

Yes: free.

If you know someone eligible, tell them to apply!

I was out on him after the hair tussle. Haven’t seen anything since that has changed my view of him, and a lot that has reenforced that it was a good choice. Even the quote of his that I saw about Kimmel was bland and obfuscatory. “I don’t know what’s happening. I hope he comes back.” Or something.

Both points are entirely fair

Your tank top has way too much cloth

This is one part of why I podcast - so I get regular practice speaking on issues. Recently started a politics-adjacent book club to have more conversations and hear more perspectives as well.

DIY Democracy: Mutual aid is, well, mutual I spoke with Nicole Williams, a Philadelphia activist and organizer with about the work that the community fridge does as mutual aid and about mutual aid more broadly.  Music is by Evan Schaeffe...

If you’ve been meaning to learn about mutual aid and what getting involved in that looks like, I have just the conversation for you!

I saw the last few on TV!

Please, for the love of your fellow citizens, please stop acting like they’re just mistaken.

Just signed up for a new electricity supplier so we’ll be at 100% renewable power for our home!

Already have solar panels that get us about halfway there (on an annual basis), so really excited to get the rest of the way!

Would you have been rivals first, too?

Good moment to do whatever we can to stop giving our money to media companies - or any companies - that support the fascist regime. Difficult to do 100% of course, but by everyone keeping conscious of it and letting them know we’re fuckin done with them, we can make them pay a price. (1)

So it’ll be up another 36.5%?

The rot is so deep and entrenched.

Book "The Double Tax" by Anna Gifty Opoku-Agyeman standing in orange cardboard box on a desk surrounded by yellow graffiti

Congratulations @itsafronomics.bsky.social on launch day for "The Double Tax"!!!

Keep soaring, inspiring and informing!

Oh no!!

Red Wing, MN originally, but 100% Philly by spirit (learned at age 41 when I moved here).

Oh...

A graph of Covid rates. It's more complex than can be described here, but the important bit is that the rates have gone up a lot since late July, nearly to the heights of last winter.

Hey, so...Covid rates have gotten real high. Maybe change your behavior to fit this new risk profile? Stop eating indoors at restaurants, mask on mass transit, that kind of thing?

Here are four ways anyone can support and help their local library:

lol because #TheDoubleTax drops in THREE DAYS, I asked folks in the streets of Philly if they think it's expensive to be a woman. Folks had STRONG opinions to say the LEAST. 😂

thebaseddad 16h If a democrat was assassinated could you imagine what would be going on right now? michaelandwicket 12h Yes. I can. Because it happened literally 3 months ago. And guess what? Democrats called for gun reform and right wingers made jokes about it. Trump said calling anybody to give his condolences would be a waste of time and then skipped the funeral. So we don't have to imagine. It literally just happened. And not a single person on the left called for a war, or called for the Republican party to be labeled a domestic terrorist organization. You cared so little that you don't even remember it.

I don’t know who these people are, but it’s well said.

If you want to talk about this on community radio show (Philadelphia) / civic podcast, shoot me a DM. Been meaning to reach out for a while and this looks as good a topic as any.
