Philly people: lots of words will get your post into the feed linked below, such as “Schuylkill” or “cheesesteak” or “Phanatic.” If your post is Philly-specific but doesn’t have obvious Philly keywords (“Someone just mooned the Portal”), stick a single 🔔 somewhere in the post & it goes in the feed.

Real gift of the magi situation where my wife bought a spice rub for my Christmas stocking at a flea market and I also bought a spice rub from the same guy at the flea market, also for my Christmas stocking. Maybe that isn’t a gift of the magi situation.

Happening now and for the next 40 minutes or so

We had to scrap earlier plans because work took over our lives this year, so when Dennis came to me with this in a day, I was floored. I couldn’t stop laughing, it was such a fun idea.
