Disappointing to see @PhillyH2O employees littering in the @qvnaorg neighborhood they are supposed to be supporting (100 block of Christian) I asked him to pick up his trash. He told me to mind my business. PWD, can you please look into this?

As a #phled parent, @jerrytjordan legacy to me is still... Threatening to strike on the first day back after 18 months of @PHLschools virtual schooling Still can't believe he did that
@rweingarten I won't forget how after 18 months of virtual school when @jerrytjordan threatened a @PHLschools strike on the very first day back There was no uniting a divided nation. Just opportunism

.@PHLschools should have service that’s “as a really nice car dealership or Chick-fil-A” —@watlington_sr As far as I know, no Chick-fil-A or car dealerships were closed for air quality on Friday. #phled

Virtual/no schooling for @PHLschools today because of air quality The last day of school for many seniors (grad on Mon). What a way to end their time in #phled. 18 mos of covid lockdown, threatened teacher strike, mis-scheduled holidays I hope @PeopleforParker makes big changes

THE SHINING was released 43 years ago today. Not a huge success on its release, it has gone down as one of Stanley Kubrick’s most popular films and most influential horror movies ever made. The behind the scenes story is as outrageous as you might expect… A THREAD 1/34

And it's done. Get out and vote Philly! I voted to make Philly safer, cleaner and more fun. I voted for a leader who can bring people together. I voted for jobs and working government. I voted for the candidate who isn't a faker

A Philly charter school manipulated its lottery to keep kids out, a top administrator says
inquirer.com
The school executive said students from certain zip codes were eliminated, and others were kept out because they or their siblings exhibited academic or behavioral problems.

These results are insultingly bad for #phled kids. Little accountability by @PHLschools @PFTLocal3 People will correctly blame covid, but ignore the response, which was to keep schools closed for *18 months*. Longer than almost any other school district https://t.co/FBTRuRc8Os

This is why I can't vote for @HelenGymPHL Fake poll, unachievable narrative, limited results. Her supporters eat it up every time - which is actually impressive for her But for those of us who have heard her schtick as parents in #phled, we just don't believe it
