What's up with Marsha's? Planning to go check it out

Saw some people saying the vibe was a lot different as of late, with more black women and just overall more friendly atmosphere. I wanted to see for myself. If they really have changed, I don't want to let a space like that just die. Opinions?

Today in Philly Queer History: We the Youth, Keith Haring's mural in South Philly, is officially on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places!!

Today, the Philadelphia Historical Commission unanimously voted to add "We The Youth," the 1987 mural by Keith Haring (and school children from both NYC and Philly), to the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places. This means that the Historical Commission must approve before any changes to the appearance of the mural are made. The nomination for the mural has a lot of cool history about it and Keith Haring. It's the only outdoor mural on the register!

Newly sober, looking for platonic friends to do stuff

It turns out all my friends are actually just drinking buddies. Which is fine, but I'm looking to move in a different direction. I'd like to do things like play pool or go bowling sober. In center city phila so if you're the same that would be awesome. But if you just want to chat and are local hit me up.

Gay bars close to Amtrak station?

Me and my BF are going to Atlantic City tomorrow via train, so we have to transfer at Philadelphia 30th street station to the AC NJ Transit line. Because of the limited train schedule, we're set to return to Philadelphia station over an hour before our Amtrak train back home, and we're taking the Palmetto which is coming up from Florida so there's a chance it may be delayed even more.

If we have over an hour to kill, any suggestions on nearby gay bars or hot spots we can check out for a bit? Quick Google search doesn't show anything within walking distance but we don't mind a quick Uber.

Gay Bar Scene?

Hello everyone I got a gay male friend who has never been to Philly before visiting soon and he asked me about the scene. I told him about Club Philly but im not very versed in the gay bar scene. I know Woodys is mostly straights and m/f couples now adays but what about the others. He is more twinkish in body to give you an idea.

Going back to dumb phone?

Hi all, has anyone gone back to a dumb phone? If so, can you recommend a brand/provider, and talk about the transition? I really want to and would love some motivation!

Board game groups in Philly

Hey everyone! I’m in my early 30s and live in Philly (center city). I’ve been getting interested in board games , although I’m definitely still a beginner and haven’t played a ton.

I’d love to join a casual, beginner-friendly board game group and meet some new people along the way. Are there any gay-friendly board game groups or regular game nights around Philly that you’d recommend?

Open to different kinds of games and mostly just looking for a fun group to play with and make some new friends. Thanks!

MOVING (Tennessee-> west philly)

Hey, I'm 25 and live in Nashville currently, which is a hellscape for anyone young, turnt, and trans- I've gotta get out of here ASAP before I go completely nuts. People have recommended west philly, but if you have alternatives, lmk. I can move at the end of october, willing to pay 800 at most. The main deal is, where should i look for sublets? PS: squatting is EVIL ! >:( I'd never do that!! but if you have friends who've squatted over the winter season, it would be sick to hear about their experience. Thanks yall
