Seriously, knock it off
As someone who lives in Philadelphia, and would like to continue living for a long while yet, I’d appreciate if outsiders stopped gleefully crowing about how violent we are. This is not a meme and you’re not gassing up a sports team.

Also, frankly, it’s racist.

Hey friend, you know what’s happening today.

So yes, make your calls to elected officials, donate to help, plan for collective action.

Do that then complete your stress cycle with any form of movement, making, or community. Grieve, cry, nourish.

Giving advice that I’m taking. Hang in there

Signs about the history of slavery in the U.S. and the 9 people George Washington enslaved are being removed right now at the President’s House Site in Philadelphia, across from Independence Hall, months after the Trump administration threatend to do so.

How far we have not come in 250 years.

I have been told that this undercover ICE agent tried to get observers to scan a QR code “for his website”. The QR code did not resolve to a link.

DO NOT SCAN UNKNOWN QR CODES FROM STRANGERS.

This is a massive security risk! Bad things can happen to you if you do it!

Stay frosty, friends.
Every day some story breaks me some. Today it’s the guy who approached parents at a school patrol, told them he was with Indivisible, and asked about how the patrol system works. The parents gave vague answers, followed him back to his car — and of course it was ICE.

If you book a hotel for $200, you should pay $200.

Today, we shut down hotel junk fees and surprise credit card holds. The price you see is the price you pay.

The images and stories coming out of Minneapolis are extraordinary. We can't say we did not know what was happening. Lots of people are putting their bodies on the line to make sure we do.

Why do I feel like I’m covered in a fine dust whenever I’m in
LA?

Look I know Philly is a stanky old dumpster of a city but I’m ready to return. I feel like a bat flying in the daytime out here. Get me back in a dark cold rowhome with my cats.
