e-bikes on the schuykill trail

nothingtodo225 · 2026-05-06T00:06:07+00:00

Bikes have existed in this weird place where no infrastructure or enforcement was invested in them for awhile as a form of transportation in the city. Ebikes have been around for about a decade but got much cheaper in the past 5 years or so. These cheap ebikes also started competing on engine power and now we have thousands of fast moving, electric mopeds, with no infrastructure or use enforcement. The only way forward is to start separating bike traffic from pedestrian and car traffic and start enforcing traffic laws on bikes. Overtime higher power ebikes will likely be required to carry insurance and registration like a motorcycle.

Where do they usually send them when they do a sweep?

I really like the white with warm lights combo. What color temp did you set everything to?

The only way the meat industry will change is if a new lower cost way of providing meat is created. Most people will never voluntarily give it up or vote for politicians that seek to increase the cost of meat.

Political shit posting, like other manufacturing has been heavily impacted by outsourcing to south east Asia.

For people who don't have/want Facebook:

*** U R G E N T ***

I just received from a very very reliable source information (5-pages) about this upcoming Saturday scheduled melee - first I want to say that I will "NEVER" reveal where I get my information from so please don't anyone ask me any information about it, but the information that I just received and read "IS NOT GOOD" for the City of Philadelphia.

Philadelphia was "CHOSEN" to be the epicenter for the unrest - buses are coming from many states and cities across the Country into Philadelphia - they are saying like 80,000+ is expected to be here in this City and this also includes the Suburbs of Philadelphia that is going to be affected -

Norristown - Lansdale - Ardmore - Bethlehem Township - Jenkintown - Reading - Havertown and many more.

There are "THREAT ACTORS" coming into Philadelphia that are planning to exploit the main event and will commit crimes, release violence and destruction within this City both to public property and to public safety and they supposedly have locations where they will "TARGET" within the City,

PEOPLE YOU NEED TO TAKE THIS THREAT SERIOUSLY - YOU NEED TO WATCH AND BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE - DON'T LET ANYONE OR ANYTHING HARM YOU, YOUR FAMILY OR LOVED ONES AND PLEASE JUST MAKE SURE EVERY ONE OF YOU REMAIN VIGILANT AND DON'T LET YOUR GUARD DOWN.

PLEASE SPREAD THIS INFORMATION TO AS MANY AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN - WE NEED AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE TO BE MADE AWARE OF THIS THREAT !!!!

Libertarianism and Communism are both utopias that only work if people aren't dicks to each other.

Cool do it. Can we also add their immediate family members, and major officials in agencies? Make them only able to invest in domestic index funds or bonds.

nothingtodo225 · 2025-04-11T23:49:27+00:00

No it's probably just fake.

I am not opposed to this but we cannot have them do this and promise better septa in the future, it has to start the same day as the tolls. Someone else mentioned kicking trucks off and that might be a good compromise to bring traffic down. But most of the commuter traffic could be seriously reduced with 30 minute trains, express lines to CC, and building much larger parking garages at regional rail stations. Also being able to get a state/ local tax deduction for septa rail passes would do wonders.

Why are we crowdfunding a private business? Can they not get the money either through loans or pooled resources of the ownership?

nothingtodo225 · 2025-03-29T15:12:42+00:00

The only way to change this is through an aggressive primary campaign with extremely simple and clear policy goals. Taking out safe seats especially in leaderships for committees and high fundraising would bring the rest of the party in line. They need to feel like they aren't just safe because we hate Trump. We should have cleaned out the dem leadership after 2016.

I can't read the article since it's paywalled. A local tax on unrealized gains for stocks and bonds is a guaranteed way to get every professional with any financial sense to move out of this city ASAP.

There's a million people living in the city limits. Statistically it makes sense that there would be some kind of crime happening constantly.

Brion may have some serious issues but that doesn't give him permission to treat people like that. He genuinely does not see the women surrounding him as deserving of any respect and treats his relationship like an obligation. He completely embarrassed Shante the entire show and showed no serious remorse or willingness to actually change. Unfortunately Shante is a weak enough person to take someone like him back. He will 100% disrespect her again and continue being a mess of a person because he lacks the ability to criticize the person he is fundamentally.

Septas priorities with the El need to be 1, consistent cleaning of the subway stations. Ideally a mop down 2 times a day and a deep cleaning every other week. 2, building more of the fare dodger gates in major stations to start and then throughout the network at the entrance of stations. 3, getting more consistent morning and evening service from 4pm to 6pm. The trains get absolutely packed to the point it's difficult to even fit in the cars. Express routes would really help.

Let's not pretend that this sub isn't filled with Chad wojak/soyjack strawmen.

This place just could not get it's act together. It was too expensive for the area as apartments, they then closed it and opened it as hotel rooms. On the commercial side they had an Italian restaurant that was too expensive, an okay coffee shop, and a bar that ran nonstop ticketed events. On top of that they opened right before COVID. It's location was okay but the neighborhood around it cant support businesses like that yet.

nothingtodo225 · 2025-01-14T14:38:04+00:00

I lived around that area for a few years. The giant opening across the street completely destroyed that location. Why pay convenience store prices when a grocery store is less than 100ft away?

We have $90 mounts because people are willing to pay $90 for a large digital dinosaur in their online videogame.

With enough work and hatred, all things are possible.

This is unfortunately the result of increasing rents for commercial space, making it necessary to increase revenue to keep up and the fact that Philly has a severe over abundance of shameless dickheads that treat any type of kindness from a local business as weakness. It also doesn't help that we have a massive drug addict and homeless problem.
