Hey everybody! Unfortunately, I moved the year that FIFA comes into town. But I saw a charm that is of the LOVE sign and fell in love with it. When I first moved to Philly, that's the first thing I saw, so the sign is super sentimental to me. I was wondering if anyone here would be willing to sell one? Thank you so much and GO BIRDS!!

My boyfriend is moving tp Philly this week, I am going to join later. He is looking for a reliable person to help him set up his apartment in Center City, put stuff on the walls, TV, etc. and someone that can come twice a month to clean and do laundry. He is Cuban, so happy to speak Spanish.

Send me your recs!

I have a group of about 20 coming next weekend for the PSU/Temple and we have about half going to the game and half not. We have a TV set up so the plan was just to have that group watch outside during the game.

Someone brought to my attention today that you can’t keep tailgating after kickoff at the Linc.

Is this true? And if so, is it tightly enforced?

hi, anyone inside lincoln for the bruno mars concert know if they are cancelling?

My LDR partner and I recently visited Philadelphia for our first ever trip together. We took the FlixBus from NYC to Philly and back (mainly because of the cost) and our adventure was so much fun!

We stayed for 3 nights and did some sightseeing and one of the days was dedicated to hiking in Wissahickon Valley Park where we hiked to the Devil’s Pool.

Everything was so wonderful here and we both loved the artsy vibes since we are both artists. We took a lot more photos but we are in them so I picked the few handful that didn’t aha, hope that’s okay.

Someone recommended Bar Bombon for our vegan dinner date (my partner is vegan) and it was absolutely delicious!

It was so much fun being able to experience a different city life than I’m used to (NYC native) and was pleasantly surprised that it was actually not as chaotic as Manhattan is (but maybe that was just the area we stayed at). My partner who is from LA also enjoyed the visit

I just wanted to make this post to share my appreciation for the city and also extend my gratitude for having us even if it was for a short period of time 🥳 We’re definitely looking forward to our next visit so that we can experience more things.

Last photo is of my bunny who joined us on this trip

Hey does anyone have an extra ticket or a ticket they don’t plan to use for tomorrow’s Acrocats show at 7pm?

A group of us are heading into Philly from out of state just to see the cats and to quote my friend - “I’m a POS wife that waited too long to buy my husband’s ticket to the show and now he’s the only one in our group that can’t see the show.” Apparently she didn't think cat circuses would be that popular 😂

If anyone has an extra we could buy we'd super appreciate it!

I’m looking for someone reliable for a full condo renovation, available to start as soon as possible. I was scammed years ago and prefer not to find someone online again, so I’m hoping for a vetted, trustworthy rec.

The project is a 1,000 sq. ft. condo and includes:

• Flooring installation
• Popcorn ceiling removal
• Painting
• Two bathroom renovations
• One kitchen renovation
• Window treatments

We’d like to provide our own finish materials for the kitchen and baths, while the rest of the scope would be handled entirely by the contractor.

If you know someone dependable or have a referral, please let me know!

Hello all, I am asking only because my husband is dealing with some serious foot pain but doesn't have sufficient sick time yet to get to one during normal working hours. Does anyone have any experience with an evening or weekend hours practice so he can get some relief? Thank you all in advance.

Long story short, I got into an accident and let this guy tow my car. I thought the other party called him, but he was a rev chaser. I called the cops but they rode pass the accident, and I needed to go to the hospital so I let him take it.

While he had my car, he took cash, stuff I had for work, my gas card, and idk what else. My job will let me off if I file a police report and show them, but I cant do that without his name. I only have a number and he never gave his real name. I have this card but the address it fake.

Can someone help me find him? I get into an accident and end up in the hospital and this guy steals my shit.

He’s lightskin, about 5’6, doesn’t get hair cuts. He also said his nickname was “too/two/to”. My car got towed to south philly if that helps.

If anyone has an extra ticket, I’ll buy it!! I waited too late to register :(

Edit: if you’re able to say something in your DM to let me know you’re not a bot, that would be superb. I just got 15 rapid-fire messages that all look scammy

I captured a parakeet on 5th and Manton today and currently have them tucked away with food and water. I've posted in several Facebook groups, but was looking for advice on either more places to reach out, and to potentially reach anyone here that might be looking.

It's hot out today so I assume they haven't been out long as they didn't seem too affected!

Ladies — my female friend was followed for about 15 minutes by the man pictured. It wasn’t until she recorded him and went into a local business for an extended time that he gave up.

Be careful!

Edit: someone asked for a source, so here it is https://whyy.org/articles/drexel-university-faces-budget-shortfall-enrollment-drop-exploring-staff-cuts/

https://www.inquirer.com/education/academy-of-natural-sciences-closing-museum-philadelphia-20260901.html

Annual Drexel Budget: $1.5 billion
Academy budget from Drexel: $10 million
Total percentage of Drexel budget that goes to the museum: 0.67%

They’re saving peanuts by taking the museum from us.

I am looking for honest answers but also a little optimism. I live in Center City, about a 10 minute walk from 30th street station. I previously worked within 10 minutes walking from my place, but accepted a job in Manhattan that pays way more and is more importantly with a much more stable organization not going through difficult times financially, and offers an expanded role.

Their official policy is full time in office, but my manager seems very flexible so I feel like its possible they will allow for slightly different hours or even working from home here or there.

From everything I hear, people say it’s challenging but doable, but i also hear people saying they prefer it only if they only have to go in several times a week. For me though, the stressful part of commutes has always been driving, so while it will still be tough, I actually dont know that I would mind the hour and a half train ride all that much.

Has anyone managed this somewhat successfully? Any tips? It was somewhat of necessity to take the job, I don’t want to move my kid out of his current school, and I have a solid network of friends and support in philly so id rather not leave if possible.

Edit: I would be paying 1250 a month for a daily to and from amtrak ticket, which is roughly how much more I would be paying in rent looking at most of the places I found in NYC (which would be tinier and with most likely less attractive schools

Edit 2: it’s like a 40% increase in pay which will mostly be eaten by the train and subway cost, but again it’s with an institution (AMNH) that is more stable than my current institution which is in hot water, and I need stable employment for among other things immigration considerations.

Had a flashback today, does anyone recall a club,bar, restaurant that had a wall of plaster boobs like an art piece. It was back in the good ole times of shampoo, fluid ministry of information era in the city. I sorta am pulling for St Jacks but no one can back that claim. I’m talking like 20-30 sets of breasts. AI says National mechanics but I went and talked to bartender and he gave me a “not here” sorry to make you guys open your brains that far back but what ya got…anyone???

Exactly as the title says. I have a fear of dentists due to extremely unpleasant past experience. Haven't been to see a dentist in almost 20 years because of it and I'm terrified of being judged for this.

Anywhere in CC or South Philly.

Yo wtf
