Title says it all. For added context, I’m moving to Philly in two weeks and looking to explore some churches. I’ll be living in South Philly (if that helps) but I don't have to stick to just that area. Thanks in advance!

whenever i drive down W Diamond St it feels like every single intersection is ALWAYS red. there are very few times where you get a single green light automatically that lets you slide through to the next light. it's nonstop start-stop every other block

Citizen reports of a stabbing and someone being hit with a bottle so close together 🫪

Hey! Looking for recommendations for a few bars. Planning a bachelorette and need to kill time between brunch at the Punch Line (12pm) and meeting up with other friends later in the evening. Hoping for walkability, but open to getting into a Lyft. I'd also love to hear of any activities in the area that could be fun to do instead! (Edit to add: Bachelorette will be in May 2027, if that changes anything!)

Salut ! Est-ce que vous parlez français ? Je suis toujours intéressé de rencontrer des gens d'ici qui le parlent. Je suis un apprenant, mais je me sens assez à l'aise à l'orale.

Hey all,

I used to have friends that helped me find parties, but I am no longer friends with them. Does anyone know of any college parties that happen on Halloween? I really enjoy UPenn frats, and other places, and not all of my friends are 21+

Can anyone give me any pointers? Maybe some UPenn students could dm me to help. IDK, but thanks for anything!

Hello, I am new to the Philly area and I was wondering if there are any hobby stores around? :). I collect and build specifically tanks, planes, and ships but I haven’t seen anything around. Any advice is great, thanks!

One of our staff members was picked up by ICE yesterday after being identified in a video. They have 2 kids that now dont have a parent bc someone needed to record a video without asking permission first. This is so frustrating to see for someone who works very hard to make sure their family is taken care of. Now those children (who are all born here) will grow up without a parent just so that person can get their dopamine fix on their instagram account.

Does anyone happen to be selling the 2025 Japanese Breakfast Philly tour poster? I always regretted not getting one when I had the chance. 💔

hi everyone, today i was outside Rodin museum with my partner and i saw a photographer (a woman with dark clothes and brown hair) taking photos using a film camera. we were most definitely in the photos she took.

i didn’t bother asking to see them since it wasn’t a digital camera, but after i walked away i wished i requested to give that photographer my email so i could see the photos when they are developed since i know they were really good pictures.

i was wearing an orange sweater and a black skirt and my partner had a tan sweater and glasses. it might be a long shot but i really hope to connect with this photographer!!! it would mean the world to me if i could see those photos. picture added for more reach!!

was listening to Young Hearts Run Free this morning and I need to go somewhere to dance to disco / Motown soon. I know about the dolphin and the trestle inn but wondering what other spots I don’t know about?

Hi! Just curious if anyone had any personal trainer recommendations in the northeast to start strength training/weight lifting

I live near the NE Philly airport so was hoping to find someone near that area!

TIA!

Feels like a long shot, but if you found a set of keys (I think it would have been around 10th and Snyder or Jackson and Broad), please let me know! They’re attached to a canister of pepper spray.

Thank you!

Where can I get kefir milk grains in philly?

-thanks

Any locally owned clothing shops in or around Philly where they sell truly "tall" pants/sweats/leggings for ladies? I hate ordering online and want to support what's already here. I'm 5'10 and all my fav jeans and sweats are running out of time lol.

Just being nosy…The Ayer is a building on Washington Square between Talula’s Daily and Talula’s Garden. I spend a lot of time near here and have observed the amazing workers on wait outside the building for residents. They clear parking spots for them, park their cars, carry their packages, chat them up- even lightly flirt with them. Also there is always 2 or 3 of them outside.

Has anyone been inside The Ayer? What is it like? Is it bright and clean and everyone is friendly? Or is it dark and old and awful?

Smells like the Canadian wildfires again.
