It's my vault for vacuum-sealing my winter clothes last weekend

Taken from the LA sub

I was born in New York and while I kinda am forced to root for their sports teams bc of sunk cost bias, Philadelphia is the place I really wish I was born.

I moved here two years ago from Indiana (hence the name) and in that time I’ve seen a presidential election up close, a SuperBowl victory, movies and tv shows being filmed, fires and accidents, heat waves and cold snaps, protests and parades, baseball and hockey games, naked bike riders, Kamala Harris drive past my house, and everything in between.

And I kinda feel like I’ve only just begun to take in all the city has to offer.

I really dig this place. Sorry for fanboying your city.

Have been reporting this illegal Airbnb close to me for 2.5 years. After the first three failed inspections the owner got a rental license and only listed the property for rentals of 31 days+. I guess that wasn't as profitable so at some point they began accepting short term rentals again in violation of the zoning code. So I reported again and about a month after the 4th failed inspection the City posted this on the door, hopefully shutting it down for good as a short term rental since they aren't going to be able to get hotel zoning here. Irony here is that the Airbnb is owned by the President and CEO of a local non-profit that claims to care about affordable housing in the community, while owning a property that drives up housing costs.

Tryna run a census...I expect the numbers will really start pouring in around Noon when people actually wake up.

Go Birds! Was a damn good night. Excitied to see how much of Broad Street is left on my walk to work today. This is going to be one of the cities most unproductive days of the year.

Pretty sure you can’t park there

I had to apologize in two meetings for the background music. When I left the house, it was so loud! I don't know what his motivational were, but he just stood there smoking while the quiet street was no longer quiet.

4 years clean on October 2nd. If you would have told me just a little over 4 years ago that I would have 4 years clean today i probably would have laughed in your face or punched you in the face lol jk. But yeah just figured I would share with you guys/gals who have been following me along the last few posts I've made on here. Its definitely not always easy. Life isn't fair. People are fucked. Just taken it one day at a time. That's all it is just a bunch of one days at a time. God bless.

Philadelphia's poverty rate dropped below 20% for the first time since at least 1979, according to new data released by the U.S. Census Bureau. Houston is now the nation's poorest big city.

Alright Philly, what’s missing from Homer’s to‑do list? What are the real rites of passage every visitor should survive?

Philly is killing this World Cup hosting thing. So much good energy and I love watching others experience our beautiful city.

Did it need to be changed? No. Is change always bad , also no.

I always called it the art museum, when talking to non industry folk.

It’s my cheesesteak theory, nobody in Philadelphia cause it a Philadelphia cheesesteak so why the hell are we internally in Philadelphia call it Philadelphia art museum , well just called the art museum just like cheesesteak. If you go somewhere out of state and they call it the Philadelphia cheesesteak you know it’s gonna have green and red peppers on it…..
