And a Judge in PA just ruled that the distribution of funds in the schools of PA is unconstitutional because there was no legitimate reason given why wealthy areas should have well funded schools and poor areas should have under funded schools.
This could be a game changer in terms of the the massive underfunding of city and rural schools. The judgement basically said “You guys need to come up with a way to fix this”.

Reply to comment by Cobey1 in Gym bashes Union League, goes to cocktail party there next week by MagnusUnda
After the past decade, I don’t listen to anything politicians say, I watch their actions. She supported the Union League through her actions, so her words denouncing them are meaningless.

It’s not at all. If you are taking a stand against something/someone you think is immoral or corrupt, you make personal sacrifices.
Your argument is like voting to go on strike, crossing the picket line to go to work and the saying “How else am I supposed to make money?”
That’s part of taking a stand. In fact it’s like, the ONLY part of taking a stand.

Pour some lime (limestone powder, not the fruit) in there, and hope that we get a cold snap that keeps that corpse frozen until trash day.

You can take it to a sanitation convenience center.
Edit: however, that does require you putting it in your car.

Doesn't have to be a bell. Just needs to be audible.

PA state law says that bikes on sidewalks must yield to pedestrians and are required to audibly signal if they are passing, so yeah, the bike guy is 100% in the wrong.

Reply to Shoutout to Parkway Corner for being one of the last bastions of a quality Italian hoagie in my rotation by sakamake
Best Italian hoagie is somewhere between those two. Parkway has way too much meat, Martha’s has way too little. The perfect Italian hoagie is a balance of all ingredients and neither of those have it.

AirBnB is a garbage company. And “I never had a problem when I used them” is not a good excuse to give this company money.

He went on a bit of a monologue about how important the press is and that they’ve been attacked lately by people and “politicians” and in the most direct comment towards Trump said that they are not “the enemy of the people”.

If you aren’t currently giving them money, you should. They consistently get rated as a very reliable and neutral news source, they don’t fan the flames of division, they have a lot of programming that makes people smarter and more informed, and it’s equally accessible to the very wealthy and very poor.
It’s one of the few high quality public services making the US a better place.

Yeah. It’s crazy how much easier life gets if you work for a company that treats its employees well. My company makes you forfeit the check that the court gives you (the $9/day or whatever it is), but in turn, they give you the full day’s wage.

Some employers will give you paid time off, completely separate from your vacation, if you have jury duty. I think this is their way of saying “If you are collecting paid time off for Jury Duty from your employer, you need to actually be here for Jury Duty.”

Reply to Once a ‘South Philly secret,’ the Southeast Asian Market returns to FDR Park for another delicious season by ColdJay64
I haven’t been since they moved to FDR, but when they were around Snyder (I think maybe Mifflin park), I used to love the green mango with the lime/chili salt.
