(also, tell your city council person you’re in favor of guaranteed income programs like this and that they should support the continuation of the program)

#Philly people! The city is trialing a program to give pregnant residents a no strings $1000/mo guaranteed income for 18 months and they still haven’t filled all the slots so if you know anyone who’s expecting and lives in Nicetown-Tioga, Strawberry Mansion, or Cobbs Creek who makes less than 100k please encourage them to apply: https://www.phillyjoybank.org

@maya thats wild, nowhere i attended had anything even remotely like that policy

@rowyn awwww i love honor getting a chance to get some validation & talk shop

@titania my sibling does that too!

@kate @alis i mean car safety regulations aren’t half as problematic as the tax writeoff and emissions regulation loopholes, when it comes to driving up car sizes!

particularly as modern CRVs and trucks are notoriously prone to rollover which is uh, not the safest failure case

@Lady also on account of being Like That

@Cyannin looks delicious!

@Forestofglory the main lead in longest day in chang’an definitely makes some questionable choices but they’re all in service to how much he cares which is fun

@rowyn
«"Aww." Magnus leaned over my legs, towards Umbral. "Should we pet you while you're in human form so you know we think you're just as cute like this?"»

Definitely an idea worth considering further 👀 (maybe wait till Cassie is feeling better tho)

@brie wikipedia says yes, if you keep the cut patches in the fridge & cites this study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6454296/

(unfortunately i haven’t used matrix patches, only single layer drug in adhesive so i can’t pass on my drs advice)

@platypus i played a shitton of Breath of the Wild, which is post-apoc and i guess therefore technically worse world? but like…i was playing it for the open world exploration aspects so it definitely didnt feel worse world

@maya i like p much all of those colors individually but in combination they seem a bit….

@sunflower_avenue right after our local mask mandate was lifted i got a whole bunch of comments spanning the whole range of unpleasantness (the majority were just variations on ‘you know you dont have to wear that right?’ with varying levels of condescending but i also got cornered on the bus once by someone who had decided masks were uh, a muslim conspiracy to force women to veil so) but it mostly tailed off after the first…six months?

i do still occasionally get people, esp medical professionals, doublechecking i’m not sick which is reasonable but still awkward and annoying

@rowyn awwww
