Running, music, Harry, Franklin and Phillycentric nonsense
“Give me your legal, your money,
Your quality and loyal masses yearning to breathe pollution again,
The golden cherubs of your teeming country club.
Send some, if homeless, to prison not near to me,
I lift my Trump Bible beside the golden door! It’s real gold by the way“

I really thought Philly Elmo was going to be part of the finale of Severance.

I thought I knew my music trivia until I hung out with Chip & Jeff…
"Hey Jeff, I'm tired of reading. Can I hear a bunch of music fun facts instead?"

Me: "You're in luck! @chipchantry.bsky.social and I just doled out a ton of top-notch music trivia. That sonofabitch stumped me with his first question!! Let me know how you do."

Are we at the point where Skynet becomes self-aware ?

I was just comparing Severance to Radiohead. Started out strong but went off the rails but many are afraid to admit it’s becoming intolerable.

One further thought after today’s Substack post: on tariffs, Trump has been *more* extreme than his campaign, despite urgent warnings from business. Any reason to believe he won’t go all-in on mass deportations? paulkrugman.substack.com/p/america-is...

The dipshits are in charge for now but it won't last. Fight back with small gestures: clean up your local park, volunteer at an animal shelter, get together with good people to do positive things. We're raising money for food insecurity. Support us if you can ❤️

I'm going to say this loud so the haters can hear me:

The only people I know who are afraid to come into Philly are people who don't go into Philly.

The only people I know who are afraid of cities are people who don't go into cities.

Ignorance - especially willful ignorance - breeds fear.

Let’s goooo…
A few years ago I helped organize the Fraud Street Run that generated over $71,000 (generous donations & merch sales) for Philabundance. Some dark times right now so we’re going to lace ’em up and raise some funds once again. Please support us with a $10 donation #FraudStreetRun

Trump's US, where MAGA Nazis kidnap you if you speak out. This woman was assaulted and abducted for asking a question at a Town Hall. The MAGA speaker jeered on stage and thanked the staring crowd for being subservient. Those who tried to intervene were also attacked. #3E #EndImpunity
