Mare of Easttown was the closest I've seen anyone come to it. Other than that I agree, they usually just sound like a New York accent.

You can thank the Republicans for that. It's a disgrace.

So technically you're not suppose to have both. When you go to get the new ID they're suppose to take the old one. But when I moved back to PA after living in DE for several years went to update my license. They didn't take my DE license. ( I don't know if it was in error or what). So I still have both.

I watch their school board meetings on YT. Which is kind of random cause I'm like an hour away and it's not like I'd ever be able to live the area. It seems like a really great school district with a lot to offer. The kind of school I wish I could have been able to go to back in my day. I don't get why this is being pushed so hard. Banis-Clemens keeps saying it's about giving the kids more of a choice. That the way it is currently limits their options especially for tech school students. But that doesn't seem to be a major issue for students as far as I can tell from watching. I saw when the teachers and current/previous students spoke out against this and when the social studies teachers explained how much this is going to effect the whole curriculum and how they teach all the way down to the middle school level. I didn't anyone speak in favor of it. Not only does there seem to be no real reason for it especially a good enough reason for such a big change. But it sounds like such a good overall curriculum that really gives them a good history education and history is important for all students.

My cousin just went through some BS with them. They contacted her saying they're going to garnish her wages talking about she owed 17K. Accused her of not filing taxes since 2013!
When she absolutely did every year. She sent them her W2's , meanwhile they actually started garnishing her wages. Come to find out that they were wrong and she was paying Philadelphia taxes because she worked in Philly and now they have to return what they took from her and are taking their good 'ol time doing it. She said they're ignorant AF too.

Little Scandanavia at SCI Chester my cousin is there and was one of the 65 picked for the program. He really likes it. It's awesome and I really think it can do a lot of good.
