A good neighbour

full tank of gas.

someone who cares moving in feels good

A little context; this area has been neglected for years. The building next to me was abandoned 20+ years ago, and finally just came online as apartments (sure, it flooded my basement a few times before that but that’s just phillyliving ah!)

And the home a few down for me finally sold and the guy that bought it actually fucking gives a shit. Ain’t that how it’s supposed to be!?

What Italian Sandwich shop has this logo?

I think it's three words, the last being "cafe". This is the clearest screenshot from the video clip I could get and haven't been able to figure it out on my own.

3rd time someone has spit at my feet in this city for no reason. Feels like it’s intentional disrespect at this point

I’ll be walking outside, not even in a crowded area, glance at them and look away, and they will turn around and spit so close to me it feels almost intentional. First time it happened, I just thought it was bad timing, but now it’s clear there’s a pattern.

This morning I passed and they spit so close it flung up and hit my arm a little. Not enough for me to call police and say it’s assault but it was disgusting and weird, and this person was not homeless or mentally ill but on their way to work or school.

I’m a white female and every time it’s done by only males of another race. 100% feels like I’m being targeted for who I am in the city, like how dare I be here or something. Like what the hell?
