A women gave her baby to a bus operator and asked him to call the police as she couldn’t take care of the baby.
Honestly why do we as a state arrest desperate women who need help and don’t understand the safe haven laws.

There's a whole cottage industry devoted to teaching Millennials basic life skills. Are young adults that hapless—or is being a grown-up really harder now?

I would rather see cleaning crews on every train and station every couple of hours. Rather than this type of enforcement to make quality of life better. The truth is the more riders make each other safer on transit. Not this broken windows bullshit.

we fucking won.
NEW: In a historic victory for students, a judge has declared Pennsylvania's school funding system unconstitutional.
We proved that the students who need the most have the least, because the state shortchanges low-wealth communities. It's time to change that.

Lifeline Scholarships mean most of our children are left to drown.
Jay-Z's Roc Nation will spearhead an educational campaign in Philadelphia that helps students K-12 from low-income households secure about $300 million in scholarships to attend the city's private schools.

This act by

should be the canary in coal mine for any advocates and activists in Philadelphia around any cause.
This is how the Mayor’s office chose to treat the voices of 6,000 constituents.
Despite having an appointment, we had to beg our way upstairs in City Hall and were met with silent, expressionless staffers in the hallway. We left the petitions on a table.

I don’t think people are upset that

wants people to work in office again. It’s that every system is broken or holding on by a thread that would make it easier to work in person, childcare, septa, housing etc.
