I am against the death penalty but it is a constant struggle to maintain my moral stance in light of the existence of Elon Musk. Guillotining would be too kind to this motherfucker.

Those damned kids using hydrants as sprinklers in mid February! Genuinely kind of confused by what the story of this must be.

“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”

Saw something online saying the Iggles rejected the White House invite, but nothing up on @edgeofsports.bsky.social and a Google search returned this @npr.org article saying it's still an open question. www.npr.org/2025/02/14/n... I hope they say no, though! No to fascism! Fly, Eagles, Fly!

I like making the e in El, the x in Bx, and the a in Bā the same cursive font. The main letter designations would be a serif print but anything adding detail would be cursive and lowercase. #SEPTA

Maybe this.

I know it's too late and no one's going to listen, but apparently a challenge SEPTA has with calling the 101 and 102 the "D" is that NE Philly riders already call the Boulevard Direct buses "the D".

Bikes are a much more enjoyable topic than threats to my country: youtu.be/BvOoTvmt6_c

“Shortly after Friday’s exchange, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) announced that it launched a Title IX violation investigation into Maine’s Department of Education and one of its school districts.”
