holy shit I remember her. I’d go with my grandma to the Terminal all the time and she would ALWAYS be out there saying “penny candy ?!” in that like shrill voice. My grandma would give her money but never actually take any candy haha. She’d yell “thank you!” and “bless you!” as you walked down the entire block.

It’s not his job to fix multi-generational poverty. His job is literally to prosecute crime. He’s objectively failing to do that or prove to be even remotely competent.

Ngl, I listened to that audio clip embedded in the article, and there’s no fucking way I’d want that outside my window all day. I’d be losing it too. I have zero stake in any of this, but it’s really, really easy to dismiss peoples’ complaints when you ain’t dealing with it.

Especially when there’s laughter and diversity!

>> Player Leonard Dow, 58, of Mount Airy, who works in financial services, said, “I recognize what the neighborhood is saying, but we’re giving them laughter, diversity of age and race. That’s what city life is about.”
I think my Kenzo neighbors say the same thing when they drink White Claws on their steps until 4 AM.

I don’t live in Chestnut Hill and I don’t play pickleball but I find this dispute fascinating. Some real gem quotes in here from both sides.
I think this is my favorite, for many reasons:
>”When people get upset about something placed in their neighborhood, it’s usually not pickleball but something like safe-injection sites that they don’t want — which I support, by the way,” said Deirdre Dingman, a professor at Temple University’s College of Public Health who plays pickleball at the courts and lives around the corner, undisturbed by the din.

Inner city is two words. And hyphenated when used as an adjective.
