Surprise, @philly311 recycling didn’t get picked up in west Philly. You also forgot to salt, and plow, and clean, and do ANYTHING With all the taxes we send you.
@philly311 it’s a matter of time before someone gets hurt at Kelly and Anne D’Arnincourt. Every car blocks box and peds bikes and cars try to weave through. Dangerous
@DBZ199609@Grubhub At least you received yours. I had to pick it up myself. Offered $5. I asked for a refund. Wouldn’t have ordered if I knew they couldn’t deliver. They sent a fake picture afterwards as if @Grubhub delivered it. Total SCAM.
@Grubhub offering me $5 for sending me cold food after I spent $70 on food is crazy. Yall should be accountable for delivering the food at a safe temperature.
@grubhub took my money and then said sorry no drivers. Had to leave the event to get arranged food. They even assigned a fake driver who sent a fake photo of the delivery. They offered a $5 credit. What a scam. #fail#doordashHereWeCome a “benefit” of being an @AmazonHelp member
@RealSpitfire America is a continent. Are you referring to Canada, the US, or Mexico? About 40% of North America speaks Spanish.
Unless you’re referring to South America. Do you have a map?
All in West Philly can take comfort knowing @phillymayor’s block is plowed and salted in a snowy Sunday. Just be sure you get to work on Monday so you can pay your
ever-increasing property taxes so it stays that way. #oneterm#demRizzo
Property tax increase appeal denied. I filed this appeal SO LONG AGO. We need a real mayor in Philly and a real school board while we’re at it so they can stop giving away tax breaks to their buddies #phled
@DrTimony Hello! Thanks so much for reaching out and bringing this to our attention. Truly sorry for any inconvenience and confusion this may have caused. Just to clarify is this in reference to your US, UK, or Canada Capital One 💳? ^ALEW twitter.com/messages/compo…
I was watching Netflix’s new series Death by Lightning. It’s set in Chicago, 1880 - and this establishing scene pops up.
In the foreground:
•an Asian woman,
•two Black men,
•and a one-legged man - all walking together downtown.
It immediately stuck out to me, so I looked up the actual demographics for Chicago in 1880.
Here’s what the numbers say:
•Chicago’s population: about 503,000
•Black population: 6,500 (≈1.3%)
•Chinese population: 172 total (≈0.03%)
•Chinese women? About 3% of that - meaning roughly 5 total in the entire city.
•Disabled/one-legged men from the Civil War era? Plausible, maybe 0.1–0.2% of the population.
So if you ran the math on the odds of seeing all of that - an Asian woman, two Black men, and an amputee - in one random 50-person crowd downtown, it comes out to about 0.00016%, or roughly 1 in 640,000.
In other words, Netflix made a scene that’s about as statistically likely as spotting a UFO on your morning commute - but hey, at least the diversity box got checked.
Nothing like shopping at @Kohls and being treated like a criminal for asking a question. If you were buying jeans and this sign was on the shelf, would you ask if it was correct? Well I did. Half a mind to return them.
Fun weekend. Went to a Halloween party and had an asthma attack but since @IBX won’t cover my meds, I just rolled the dice. Good news: I’m still alive. Bad news: I didn’t know that would be the case. Maybe I should play the lottery. #IBXSUCKS@PAAttorneyGen
