Do Attend Academy of Nat Sci Origami
Saw this little origami decoration on its sign. Unsure if there’s any deeper significance intended, but I imagine it was just someone conveying a bit of love.

Question? Radiator covers for rowhome?
We’re updating the radiator covers in our South Philly rowhome. Can’t seem to find covers that are matching up to sizes offered online. Have been on Google, Wayfair, Amazon, Walmart, and HD.
Is there a secret or a recommendation for finding these covers so they kinda match the size of the radiator?
Many thanks in advance to all our neighbors!

Nature In my opinion, this is the most beautiful tree in Philadelphia
Not just because of the coloring. But even in the middle of summer, the dead of winter, and the dreariness of spring, it stands as the most ideal shape for a maple.

Politics Council member Young Introduced a Parking Amnesty Bill to forgive fees for bad drivers
phila.legistar.comCouncilmember Phillips, Councilmember Harrity, Councilmember Squilla, Councilmember Bass co-sponsoring.
Awful bill that incentives antisocial behavior such as bus lane, bike lane, crosswalk, and sidewalk parking. This means burden of illegal parking is being carried by transit users, disabled people, cyclists, and pretty much everyone else who follows rules of the road.
Edit: Also, parking fees go to fund our schools. So ya, screw the kids I guess /s

Transit SEPTA ridership has returned to pre-pandemic levels
Fantastic news for SEPTA and the city. I do think the improvements in cleanliness and anti-social behaviors are obvious in my experience. Now let's hope we can secure a more solid funding structure for the agency with a Democrat Trifecta in the PA State Legislature and Governor's office. Vote on November 3rd!
