It’s absolutely awful. Maybe some people are making light but I’m certainly not. Details in the article were scarce but come on their fundamentalist almost definitely played at least a part. I have extended family or are hardcore Catholic this would be horrific to them.

I’m not sure I think that is more old school Catholic doctrine. These fundamentalists make it up as they go.

Phil operates on the Highlander rules of immortality.

You picked a strange hill to die on. If it was Christmas maybe you would have a point but with this being PA half the people in that crowd are likely hung over. The other half is still drunk.

There can be only one.

I look at this this way, just because I’m a wet blanket I try not to shit on others for having fun.

Name a holiday that isn’t pointless? They are all made up. It’s not like it is an actual holiday either. Again, fun, silly, tradition.

Bro we all know a rodent doesn’t have psychic powers or can affect the weather. It’s just a fun, silly, tradition. It isn’t even just a PA thing the entire country knows about Groundhog Day.

Is that galaxy Andromeda? To be that big it almost has to be I would think?

It almost has to be Andromeda I think?

In the late 90’s/early 2000’s there were places around here that only did applications (paper) through careerlink. I guess they figured it was better than having people showing up in their offices. I guess now people figure most bigger places have a link right on the website. I haven’t used careerlink since 2008 but I don’t think I ever got a call from somewhere that I put the app in through them so I stopped using it.

Well of course they have to just repeat what was said. It is a new outlet what you think they are reporters or something?

/s

They do their best but I never found them all that helpful. I feel like the commonwealth is making them as much enforcers of UC as they are employment counselors. I went there during the 2008 recession after just finishing college and the guy told me I was “unemployable” because I couldn’t do construction or any kind of hard, repetitive manual labor.

This is an excellent suggestion I live about an hour for there but could never find anyone who wanted to go with me. Museums aren’t for everyone I guess.

It is poor there but I can’t say it’s much worse than Philly or any other city.

When I went to college and told people we had that they off school nobody believed me. 🤦🏻‍♂️

These people are horrible trying to deal with. This was like 5 years ago they actually were able to garnish my pay the 1st week of the year for like $150 for apparently missing it a few years prior because I moved. The person said on the phone “we don’t make mistakes.”

A follower of the “whoever smelt it dealt it” philosophy I see.

Do you plan on going to bars? When I was at Penn State only certain bars would let you in at midnight and I think they would put a wristband on you so you couldn’t buy liquor.

Can someone please make a post about the special election tomorrow in PA 27 senate district? It covers Northumberland, Snyder, Columbia, and a few other counties. Sorry I just don’t like making my own posts for some reason.

In general are there a lot of lake activities? I live close to Sunbury there is some Susquehanna River stuff to do but not as much as people think.

I think the Erie area is the only part of the commonwealth I’ve yet to visit.

I’m going to have to look into it more thanks. It seems decent in that the people who generate value get a portion of it, unless that’s just a red herring?

The part about the people owning what they produce doesn’t seem bad. It seems to be Marx-adjacent.

Thanks I feel kinda dumb for never hearing about this.
