>the 9th Street Branch is under SEPTA’s exclusive control, so there is no need to negotiate with Amtrak or the freight railroads. The long march begins with the first step, and, to mix metaphors, the old 9th Street El is low hanging fruit.

That’s a really good argument. No ROW fights means it can be accomplished with less outside interference

You’re gonna have to take the L on this one, BigShawn. People get understandably riled up when there’s a concentrated campaign to eliminate their way of life.

It’s okay if drag isn’t for you, it’s not my cup of tea either. But the way you handle that is… not going to drag shows. Not banning them.

“Thanks to our friends at @wooder_ice and @fox29philly we made a lot of new social media friends recently, and we figured now is the perfect time to reintroduce ourselves! PGP is the G.O.A.T non-profit with the mission of Goats for the Greater Good. When people ask us what Philly Goat Project is, we love to explain that it's really about the community of people that grows around the goats. Sure, we have 13 adorable, lovable, selfie-able goats, but it's about how we partner with them that matters. The goats act as ambassadors for our mission, which includes early literacy, environmental education, animal-assisted therapy, community wellness, and teen job skills training. One of our favorite programs we offer is our free monthly All Abilities RAMbles, which is our safe, sensory-friendly space for folks with special needs and their friends & family. If you know someone who might be interested in this event, we still have space for our next one coming up on July 16th. PGP recently filmed a segment with @whyy's @yououghtaknowtv about our animal assisted therapy programs, and we can't wait to share it when it's aired! PGP also has tons of free community events! Check out our calendar online to see where our goats will be next! Whether you're a new or old friend of PGP, we are so grateful for you, we appreciate your support, and we welcome you to our goat family.”
