30s Transplants: How did you find your people?

9 Upvotes

I posted here earlier this year that I was considering moving to Philly by myself. Im 33M and have scoped out some neighborhoods I like (East falls, wissahickon, Mt. Airy - mainly the NW). Before I go for it, I want to be sure I have some good pathways to meet people and build community. I know doing that over 30 is harder than in ones 20s, so Id like to hear some success stories for how you approached it (what didn't work helps too!)

I like music/going to concerts (mostly alt/indie), casual group sports (stuff like pickleball), long walks through the city or hikes somewhere like the wissahickon, good food and drink. Id also be open to hobby clubs, adult education, or volunteering.

I've browsed some of the leagues and pickup events on Heyday athletics. And Ive perused joinphilly and see some interesting groups there. Are those good for folks in their 30s or are they more geared toward fresh college grads? Any other suggestions for where to get started?

I was on the 27 bus tonight when the driver hit a man on a city bike. Man appeared to be ok. No visible blood and was standing after being hit while talking to bystanders and medics. He was refusing help and did not want to be taken to the hospital.

If you stole a package off a doorstep and you open it and it's something you don't want, what would you do with it?

35 Upvotes

I had a package stolen off of my doorstep today. It was a bridesmaid dress for a wedding happening in 3 weeks. To be clear I am not expecting to actually find this package back. But also, it was a custom sized dress. Whoever took it is going to find that it likely won't fit their measurements, and being custom fit it's unlikely to fit most people except myself. What are they even going to do with the dress???

Anyway if you live near poplar and 19th and have a ring camera that might have seen someone walking around with an azazie box between noon and 6 today (10/22) let me know. I just want to be able to prove it was stolen to the carrier so I can get a refund or replacement.

How did the encounter play out? Was just curious because I saw documentaries about these 2 dwellers in our fair city.

Hey I’m looking for cool places to explore in Philly similar to the Graffiti Bridge. I went a few nights ago and it was really fun and I’d like to do it again. I’m still pretty new to this so I’d love some suggestions.

West Philly residents: I'd love your input on a community resource project!

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm a student at Drexel University working on a project called TownSquare, and I'm hoping to get input from people in West Philadelphia and the surrounding community.

There are already great resources out there, like Findhelp and Philly 211, that help people find local services. However, finding the right resource can still mean navigating multiple websites and organizations, and not everyone has reliable internet access or feels comfortable searching online.

Town Square aims to build on existing resources by making the process more streamlined, accessible, and community-driven. The idea is to bring free and low-cost community resources into one easy-to-use directory, with features like:

  • Printable resource sheets that libraries, hospitals, community centers, and other shared spaces could provide to visitors.
  • Community alerts and updates to help people stay informed about new resources, events, changes, and availability.
  • Ratings and reviews that let community members share their experiences and help others know what to expect.
  • Community-confirmed information so users and participating organizations can help keep resource listings accurate and up to date.

I'm still in the early stages of developing the idea, and I want to understand what would actually be useful to the people who might use it. I'm especially interested in learning how people currently find resources, what challenges they encounter, and which features would make finding and accessing resources easier.

If you're familiar with West Philly or local community resources, I'd really appreciate it if you could take my short survey!

Survey: https://forms.gle/s8ModiSSpKH53G6t6

The survey also includes an optional opportunity to express interest in a future user interview or providing additional feedback. Any contact information that is shared will only be used to schedule follow up interviews and not shared anywhere else.

Thanks for taking the time to read this! I'd love to hear your thoughts, suggestions, or experiences finding local resources in the comments, too.

Privacy note: Survey responses will be used internally for Town Square's product research and development. Responses will not be publicly shared or distributed to other organizations, and the information will not be used for purposes outside this project.

Found cat in Brewerytown

11 Upvotes

Hi all-- posting here on the off chance we can get this girl reunited. My husband and I ran into an extremely friendly calico this morning roaming 29th St near Girard. I took her to the vet, she was chipped but we haven't been able to get in contact with the person she's registered to. She definitely hasn't been outside for long so I figure someone's missing her! If she could be yours DM me!

Found a bracelet in Gray’s Ferry Fresh Grocer Parking Lot

3 Upvotes

I found it last night (10/21) around 9pm in the parking lot. It looks somewhat valuable, so I’m not going to post a pic or describe it, but if you lost a bracelet there, tell me what it looks like and I might have it.

Sorry, I know this is vague but I just want to try to return it to its owner before I pass it on.

Bathhouse: follow-up

@adele_computer has some thoughts!

Video description: a Philadelphian, who appears familiar with comparative bathhouse offerings in the city of brotherly love, discussing the rumors of eye infections and limited opportunities to get it in, being reasons that one might eschew the Bathhouse™️, for the other offerings in this city’s charming Gayborhood.

Also, they make multiple references to the Bathhouse™️ being crypto scammers.

Edit: fixed it!

Help getting prozac in CC

9 Upvotes

Does anyone know how or where in center city I can get a prescription for prozac? The public health place I used to go to got shut down unexpectedly because the doctor that ran it retired and it nobody else had the needed certifications. Please don't tell me "do a Google search" or something like that because unless I'm given proper guidance, I'm not trying to exacerbate emotions in myself or others. Thanks for your attention.
