Do Harrisburg burbs or some parts of the city, don't do York or it's surroundings - if you go that route.

Signed, a Harrisburg native who currently lives in York County and thinks it chugs.

Husband would say Pitt burbs bc he wants to retire there.

Can confirm Jim & Nena's makes tasty pizza, it reminds me of my late mom's pizzeria.

Oh, is that why there are so many Instacart/Shipt etc orders to Spring Grove?

And the first time I specifically said indigenous to that area, meaning Inuit (the correct term).

Man, you wanna have permission to be racist so bad. No use talking to a brick wall, see ya.

Yeah. It's pretty simple. You don't get to decide what is offensive towards another race.

Whoa, can we refrain from calling poor people losers? Unless you're just saying drunk drivers are losers, in that case, carry on.

Are....are you saying Kree as in blue-skinned Marvel movie characters or Cree as in the indigenous tribe? Highly hope it's the former bc otherwise yikes.

I mean, if you're not an indigenous person there then you don't get to decide if it's racist. No need to debate semantics.

I'm in the minority here, but I didn't have a ceremony. We just signed papers at my in-laws and ate cake. For anyone interested, just gotta specify during your marriage license interview that you'd like the self-uniting license. It wasn't any more expensive for me in York County than a regular ceremony with an officiant would have been, $70 I think. It's as affordable as you can get!

AFAIK, that's not a thing for everyone in PA. I wasn't eligible to be put on my husband's insurance before we got married, we lived together and I didn't have a job that offered it. It's for spouses and children only.

The good news is the family glitch loophole should be done away with in 2023. It used to be what was considered legally "affordable" was if your spouse's employer offered spousal insurance and the percentage of your income that was paid to insurance was under a certain number - if it was affordable for employee then it was considered affordable for the whole family. For example, my husband paid like $100/mo for his own insurance, but to add me it would be an additional $400+ (and it's not any cheaper if I went through the regular marketplace). That's not actually affordable for us, but legally it was defined as so. Thank the universe, bc I would have had to make the choice to go without health insurance.

Here is a link to read more about the end of the family glitch loophole and how more people can qualify for reduced insurance premiums now.

ETA - "The family loophole glitch was not an accident – basing affordability on the whole family’s premiums would have increased federal costs significantly."

The government is an unlubed dildo.

Nah, we're still here. Just bc they did their job with this woman, what they're paid to do, doesn't mean systemically there isn't a huge issue with their unprofessional (to say the very least) behaviors towards minorities as a whole.

🤘🏻

*don't be afraid if you're a white non-LGBT without a functioning uterus. We still have reasons to be afraid here, thanks.

My daughter was born in Gettysburg, we live not too far away (not my choice). If you need an accepting area of anyone not straight/white/cis/christian etc, don't live there. There's still confederate flags, plenty of nasty trumpers, etc. If you have the chance to live somewhere more progressive, I'd highly suggest it. Even the Harrisburg burbs are much better IMO.

My husband has a 2020 Hyundai and you still have to turn the headlights on manually.

Total pet peeve of mine, too. Wipers on = headlights on, that's PA law.
