"We haven't had any conversation about what we do with 14 schools, or 10 school buildings, that we physically close."

What if we repurposed them for things our city needs like shelters/transitional housing, permanent (affordable housing) units, and community centers?

PPS leadership supports consultant recommendations to close 14 schools

Do we think that PWSA will show up to fix my busted water meter today? Because they sure as heck didn't show up between 4 and 8 PM yesterday like they said they were gonna.

I really just want to brush my teeth, tbh.

Today’s burnout recovery task was finally clearing all the unsorted recycling out of my basement… that’s been there… since the election……… mind your business.

I cannot tell you how annoying it is that the Transit app is paywalled. Hope the $5/month they charge folks is worth it.

Josh Shapiro called the McDonald’s employee who reported Luigi Mangione a “hero.”

She will NOT get the $10,000 reward money because she called 911 instead of the tip line.

By the way, Josh Shapiro got $15,000 in donations from United Healthcare last year.

Numbers are fun.

A review of Shapiro’s campaign finance reports for the year shows that he spent almost $1.3 million on pricey consultants, and almost $1 million on a combination of private airfare, hotels, and event planning in 13 states, alongside smaller expenditures on new cameras and online clothing retailers.
Josh Shapiro wasn’t on the ballot this year, but still spent millions campaigning
Pennsylvania’s governor traveled extensively as a Democratic surrogate in 2024, spending money on consultants, private flights, ritzy hotels, and more.
