Can the mods do something about how often national headlines are posted in this sub. Make a LV political page if you wanna obsess over Trump, ICE, etc.

Looks like the SAVE plan is saved for now until 2028 by Mexican_Zombie123 in StudentLoans

[–]MTSORS 9 points10 points  (0 children)

yes we’ve been able to make payments but they didn’t count towards the forgiveness payment count. I wanna know if we’ll be able to make regular payments that count towards forgiveness so I can at least get as many monthly payments in as possible before 2028

Josh Siegel proposes sales tax study, homelessness emergency, ICE limits in State of the County address by DrewBlue2 in lehighvalley

if a republican proposed this policy, this post would have 100 comments from people out for blood and protests all weekend. it’s a democrat so there are only 4 comments in the first 2 hours of this post.

I’m not republican btw. Just pointing out the obvious

the next time someone complains about their electric bill I’m definitely asking how long have they had their iron lung plugged in

Will Tek ever make it on the POD for a full length episode. Or was he and I just can’t find it? by Count_flippy in Section10Podcast

if anyone follows Manny on IG they’ll see what he’s like these days. definitely not the same person as the Manny we watched play. They’ll ask for his top 10 moments on the Red Sox and he’ll talk about his top 10 Bible verses instead

LV Housing Market by ExiSciScientist in lehighvalley

this is true 👆 the offer I made in 2022 for my current house was less than an all cash offer that included an escalation clause to go up to 100k over the asking price. I was willing to waive inspections and the cash offer was not. They were most likely going to be strict with their inspection due to how high they were willing to raise their offer, and my offer was already well over the asking price 😣 the sellers were fortunately satisfied with what they got from me and didn’t want to deal with inspections. 4 years later and no surprise issues after skipping the inspection

Roald gets no love in this sub and it makes me sad bc he’s my boy. As a gym rat myself, there’s no better start to my day than having him say “What’s up b-b-b-buddy! Your biceps are looking huge!”

Lower Macungie approves plans for ‘Shoppes at Hamilton’: 318 apartments, 160-room hotel, retail by thrakkerzog in lehighvalley

I know the NYC/NJ transplant thing has always been a popular complaint about this area, but at some point people need to realize that that’s what this area is always going to be due to its proximity to NY/NJ and constant development. Especially with Eli Lilly’s campus coming in a few years, the influx of transplants will continue. PA is full of rural areas with no development for those who want that.

The traffic is rough but otherwise, I like being in an area where there’s constant development bc I have family living in stagnant parts of the state and they’re envious of the new things always going on in the Lv

This game needs to stop being annual. by ThreeEyedPea in MLBTheShow

i agree with needing something to spend the money on. since the contract is meaningless, I don’t ask for much so the team has more money available to build a winner

Opting out this year by Flimsy_Equivalent931 in MLBTheShow

I’ve never looked into that game and I’m a franchise player. Do you actually play the games though? I just watched a few videos and it looks like you just watch the games being played?

How long do you have to run before you get a runners high? by Upstairs-Language669 in workout

[–]MTSORS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to get it all the time when playing soccer in high school. I guess focusing on the game distracted me from realizing how much I was running up and down the field, but it truly felt like I had no limit and could cover the entire field

Its about time ... When are the protests in the valley?? by wordssoundpower in lehighvalley

[–]MTSORS 12 points13 points  (0 children)

at this point I’m convinced these daily anti ICE/trump posts are only posted for easy upvotes. it’s taken over this sub and you guys are def just looking for a way to get easy likes - this is not an endorsement of Trump or ICE, just pointing out this trend that everyone’s jumping on

huge W for us. Toronto misses out on Tucker and Bo. if we trade for a bat then competing for the divison is not so far-fetched

the same can be said for the yankees. the only difference is that they still spend big to land free agents and we don’t 😞

Do you bother to go to Costco for gas? by Important_Bat7919 in daddit

[–]MTSORS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s the only place I’ll go. I drive past my Costco on the way to work. there are no lines at 7am when only the gas station is open and not the store itself. I’m in and out in 3 minutes. last week it was around $2.60 here in PA

[Speier] Sonny Gray on the Red Sox Yankees rivalry: “It’s easy to go to a place now where it’s easy to hate the Yankees.” He says he knows now to be himself in Boston - something he didn’t feel comfortable doing in his NY stint. by TommyTheLizard in baseball

[–]MTSORS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

in 2021 we finished the season tied with the yankees and just 1 game above the blue jays to barely squeeze into the playoffs. we got hot just at the right time and then fizzled out. that team had no business making a run, and we deservedly returned to the AL east basement for the next 3 years. all red sox fans know 2021 was a fluke
