>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

I absolutely love the knowledge bombs you’re dropping

Monkeys paw curls: tree dies because they build a massive building in front of your view

That’s the best part

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.

That’s such a great photo!

Now I’m picturing ornate carved prows for all city vehicles.

That’s why the South Philly Lowe’s snitch bot is not long for this world

I refer to that Pop Copy sketch in my work life more than is probably appropriate haha

I’m not saying they were RIGHT to burn that church down, but maybe that church shoulda paid its fucking bills is all I’m saying /s

Like /u/stblawyer said, “Practice, practice, practice”

No thanks I don’t like grapes!

Jk, thanks for the correct lingo

Me too! I keep getting notifications and then reopening this picture and getting a dopamine burst from this silly goat

Are the goats mascots if they’re the cause d’etre of the organization?

Are those square foot gardens or just traditional raised beds? Either way I can’t wait for the progress pick when it’s overflowing with greenery!

Did you know Goats produce milk? That makes it Legen-DAIRY

Goat Ballet!

Goat On Artistic Tour

It’s the GGOAT: greatest goat of all time

It warmed even my cold, crozzled heart- so I had to share it.

From their instagram

“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.”

No worries, and it's always best to refrain from drinking or smoking and driving!

The Big Dig 2.0

One joint vs one beer is an interesting comparison, but I think we're also so normalized to the idea of having a drink or two and still being okay to drive. Look how many bars have parking lots!

Decades of "Reefer Madness" propaganda means if you're smoking the devil's lettuce you're gonna suddenly crash your car into a crowd full of orphans and kittens.

The long term solution is to improve public transportation, bike infrastructure, and pedestrian friendliness so that people can get stoned or drunk or just be our usual dumb jaywalking selves without putting anyone else in danger.
