On August 21st the emerging housing justice coalition of Philadelphia will be naming and shaming the agents of eviction and violence like the Landlord Tenant Office. This year alone, unaccountable agents of capital have shot Angel Davis and Latese Bethea. Join us

Philadelphia is talked about as the “last affordable big city on the east coast” but that perspective is from ppl with above average salaries and often the ability to work from home. For the Black and brown working class that is this city’s heart, inequality is growing and the rent keeps going up

Opinion | Long covid has derailed my life. Make no mistake: It could yours, too.
No matter how immortal we feel, we are all — still — at risk of developing crushing, life-altering symptoms.

quit my jobs and go on some long train rides across the country to see all my friends :)
Now that Powerball is back at $1B ($516.8M cash payout), time to ask: if you won, what is the most ridiculous thing you would do with that money? (Yes, we would all pay off our debts and donate to charity. I want to know the silly self-indulgent things you'd do.)

my latest — as tracked by @mmfa.bsky.social's @carlynovell.bsky.social & others, right-wingers like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Ben Shapiro are falsely linking a Philly mass shooting to trans people

"We will not allow trans women, particularly TWOC, to be the scapegoats of bigots," says the DA's office
Conservatives Are Falsely Blaming A Mass Shooting On Trans People Again
In reality, the shooter — who killed 5 people with an AR-15 style rifle over the weekend — was a cis man and Tucker Carlson fan.
