Got some free time on this beautiful Sunday? Come on out and join us at the Spruce bike lane cleanup at 21st & spruce!

Just a great app, real shambling corpse energy

cannot be overstated how much fascism is built around the conviction that you have a right to be lied to in a way that affirms your most hateful beliefs, and how determined modern fascists are to build a bubble of lies that never force them to confront the fact that the world is complicated

How Far do your tax dollars for Transit go? After people complaining over and over that SEPTA was inefficient, I had to run the numbers of Ridership to Operating budgets and would you look at that. Not only is SEPTA good with money, but they are literally the best in the US

FROM THE ARCHIVES: Judge Gives Trump Administration 3 Days To Return Her From El Salvador Prison

it's not healthy for me to feel Hatred as much as i have been lately but this world is full of so many fuckin bozos what else am i supposed to do

Trump is the enemy of the entire world. He is too self-absorbed, too corrupt, too bigoted, and too stupid to produce anything but complete devastation. He and every inch of his political movement must be completely destroyed

Is it good if SPY looks like a trader jumping off a building?

The last world cup was held in stadiums built by literal slavery, this is not a "gotcha"

Was just reading John Quincy Adams' oral arguments before SCOTUS in the Amistad case and this part seems, uh, pretty relevant

This is a horrifying violation of Rumeysa's constitutional rights to due process and free speech. She must be immediately released. And we won't stand by while the Trump Administration continues to abduct students with legal status and attack our fundamental freedoms.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

JPMORGAN slashes $TSLA Q1 delivery estimates “to just ~355K, which is -8% y/y .. and -28% q/q from 495K in 4Q24 .. “.. We struggle to think of anything analogous in the history of the automotive industry, in which a brand has lost so much value so quickly ..” Cuts target price to $120 (prior $135

"The populist right is powered by scarcity. When there is not enough to go around, we look with suspicion on anyone who might take what we have. That suspicion is the fuel of Trump’s politics. (...) The answer to a politics of scarcity is a politics of abundance."

For Philly urbanists who are unfamiliar, Bill West has been fighting the good fight for years and has an excellent blog where he details goings-on in the city. Highly recommend giving it a look! westwordsphilly.blogspot.com/2025/03/the-...

I haven't managed to break the habit yet, but every day Twitter gives more and more reasons to move over here. Happy NFL free agency to you and yours

This graffiti on the Wissahickon made a certain billionaire mad enough that it had to be removed from Twitter, but Nazis calling for trans people to die gets to stay up. I wonder why!

Donald Trump is lying to you.

At some point the opposition needs to say what is happening here: Donald Trump is a tyrant in the full sense of the term, an American fascist dictator who believes the law flows directly from his command. And he is also a deeply unwell, unfit, and criminal man with nonsensical whims

Whenever this stupid as fuck administration ends, I want a century long streak of only the most competent people in positions of power. I want anyone who espouses conspiracy theories to be forcibly ostracized from public life. If you can't explain how the federal gov works, you can't vote

The subsidized parking crusaders at CCRA started a brand new c4 specifically to fight safety improvements and loading zones (which we should have more of everywhere) on Spruce & Pine. These selfish people have no shame. Thankfully, many people are not buying what they’re selling

This is the true heart of MAGA: pure sneering contempt and the infliction of pain for their own pleasure. America isn’t safe until they are wiped out of our politics entirely
