Hey everyone! Mid-20s Philly resident here looking to expand my social circle. I'm hoping for recommendations for spots with a good mix of friendly people, whether it's for dating, finding a new friend group, or just casual connections. I enjoy lively (but not deafening) atmospheres and diverse crowds. Any neighborhood suggestions or specific places known for being more social would be incredibly helpful! Thanks!

Edit: I’m a straight male.

Hello!!! My bf and I will be going on a weekend trip to Philly- we are looking for a nicer restaurant that’s open on mondays!! Every place we’ve checked out has been closed on Mondays. Thanks in advance!!

My plantar fibrosis is making it hard to walk. Called a few urgent cares with no luck. New to this fibrosis shit and it sucks.

Anyone live in Park Towne Place apartments and have opinions on it? How's the sound and bugs/mice?

Thanks!

Any guesses as to when headlines typically come on at the Ave live?

Does anyone know if they care about large-ish bags at the Fashion District movie theater? I’ll be coming from work and will have a backpack and my big ol’ lunch bag thingy.

Been here for over a year but haven’t ventured out to Chinatown much despite loving their cuisine. What are your recommendations that are absolute gas? Preferably Sichuan, Cantonese or Hunan cuisine.

My girlfriends are visiting the city this weekend and we want to go out for Halloween tomorrow! Is anything fun happening at bars/ clubs tomorrow (10/24)

For all dog owners out there who like to stay active and keep your four legged friends active as well, come and join Walk Pack

This app lets you walk and capture land, tracks your progress, and allows you to have friendly competition with your community or you can keep those walks private for yourself and still see your achievements.

Would appreciate any feedback

Does anyone actually like him? This is a genuine question.. no judgement. If you do, I need to know why.

Hi everyone! I’m currently looking for my next opportunity in marketing, ideally in brand marketing, creative marketing, content strategy, or event/experiential marketing.
I have about 2 years of experience in social media marketing, content creation, client relations, and sales, including running my own creative business.
I’m really looking to take that next step in my career and get more involved in the branding, strategy, and creative side of marketing.
If anyone knows of companies hiring or has any connections, I’d really appreciate it! Open to Philadelphia-area or remote opportunities. Thanks so much!

Hi everyone - currently in your beautiful city and loving it!

We are going to the Flyers and Sixers games on Saturday - I assume we can just stay down by the arena and get something to eat/drink between the 2 games?

Can’t wait to see both 🥅 🏀

A few weeks ago they ripped up our road to pave it. Well today my husband goes out to walk our dog and sees that they’re towing every single car on our street. Here’s the fucking problem. They gave us absolutely no notice. No signs posted on our street AT ALL!! Surely this CAN NOT be legal. Because you just know that people are going to have to pay to get their cars back. Thankfully my husband was able to move it in time but WHAT THE FUCK PHILLY!!!

My house is 100+ years old and has god knows how many layers of lead paint. I am hoping someone has a recommendation for a person or service who would be willing to do paint removal on an exterior window sill, a few places hade told me no one would do the service because of the type of paint.

Hi guys! Is there anywhere hiring near north Philly that I can take the septa too? I've tried checking indeed but it's mostly teaching jobs that conflict with my school schedule or security jobs for 21+ 😔

Hi all! I’m in a clinical mental health counseling program, and one of our projects is to spend about 6 hours over the next few weeks attending events with a community or culture I don’t know much about. The point is to learn by showing up and listening, not to study anyone.

For context, I’m a white cisgender woman, so I’m looking for communities outside my own experience. I don’t have a specific group picked yet, so I’m open to ideas. Are there communities in Philly with events, cultural centers, religious services, meetups, or gatherings that welcome newcomers? Free or low-cost is a bonus. I’d also appreciate tips on being a respectful guest.

Hello, a friend of mine is hosting an event at UPenn this Sunday is is looking for dogs that are good with humans and kids. Bonus points if its a rescue dog or dog in need of a home as this is a good opportunity to try to help them find a furever home

Hi everyone!

I'm currently living in Brazil and need to obtain a Pennsylvania State Police background check and apostilles for both my Pennsylvania and FBI background checks for Italian citizenship.

I've been in contact with Signature Line Notary & Apostille, run by Barron Pearson in Philadelphia.

Before hiring them, I'd like to know if anyone has used their services or knows whether they're reliable.

Has anyone had any experience with this company, particularly for background checks or apostille services?

I'd really appreciate any feedback or recommendations.

Thank you!

Hello all!

I'm trying to move out of my really expensive city to somewhere cheaper and more urban and am likely going to move into the philly area. I have family in NJ so ive been a few times but what are some areas that won't get too expensive in a year.

I've done some research now on pricing but I'm worried pricing will change in major ways over the course of a year. I'm more than willing to live somewhere real cheap and can live with roommates I just don't know if pricing here changes as crazy as it might in other major cities, as well what are some places i should be looking that aren't far from center city or at least have good public transit connections.

Hey guys, I’m down here for a bit and I’m kinda getting bored hanging out at my Airbnb. I’m love doing crafts and things and I was wondering if anyone knows any good like craft places that offer like classes or workshops. I’m located in the point breeze area.
