Because even the impact studies paid for by the people behind the arena proposal say that the economic benefit to the city will be literally 1/5th of what they said it would be this time last year and called the proposal "barely adequate" and acknowledge that it will cause Displacement for the local community. The arena, when looked at from the best angle, is practically the embodiment of gentrification and will reduce one of the most walkable neighborhoods in all of the United States to a car infested wasteland and destroy the vibrant Chinatown that exists in the area today.

This one arena would take the place of dozens of small amd medium businesses directly and lead to pricing out hundreds more nearby.

We don't need a second meca to car culture (the existing arena in south Philly is barely any less connected to public transit but surrounded by a sea of parking) in our city, and especially not in the heart of it.

 

Hope to see lots of you there for it!

Looking forward to going to city council tomorrow to show my opposition for the first day back in session and also going to the rally on Saturday. Fuck the arena and fuck he billionaires who want to mess up my neighborhood for their own gain!

A sort of primitive vtuber I think? A fake singer bot? I don't really know either but when I saw Philly versions of her it activated my Philly patriotism

Fucking preach. I've never down voted so many comments on my own post before. Or any post honestly.

Me too. Please find more Philly mikus for me to post. I crave them.

If I had one I'd post it! Alas, I do not.

Your wish shall be granted! But I don't have a 4th Philly miku sadly so that will be all

Seeing heathcliff in a heathcliff comic on lemmy is so unusual.

 

Day 2 will probably be next week and I'll probably forget before we get to day 3 tbh

Probably less bad but I might still be a little squicked out by it. You need to talk to someone smarter than me for a clearer and more insightful answer.

Investing in real estate like that is just making it fractional harder for you to ever buy a house too. You can have investment diversity without a reit in the same way you can have a full meal without french fries.

Bro, if you gotta strip it down to metal every year then you are not cleaning it nearly well enough day to day. Stripping it down to bare metal every 50 years might even be too frequently imho.
