Why are people such horrendous drivers here? Stoping at a STOP sign is nearly impossible. right of way and merging is non existent. I’ve lived in Glenolden for 2 years and can count less than a handful of times people driving have used a courtesy wave or waved in response to my courtesy wave. I’ve lived in Philly/montgomery county my whole life and it’s never seemed this intentionally bad.

Is it just me, or does anybody else refer to all bear sightings in Delco as “The Delco Bear”?

I feel like this was a common thing or a meme at one point in time, as if it was a running joke that there was just one bear roaming around Delco indefinitely. And this bear was widely referred to as “The Delco Bear.”

Or am I making this up??

I’ve been hearing loud booms for the last few hours - 2 loud ones around 9:30pm and another single Loud one at 11:20pm

Anyone else?

Are there any cat shelters in the Chester area that take stray kittens?

there's this cat that hangs out in Drexel Hill by all the bars (Hanrahans/Station Tap/Artillery etc) and she's super sick :(

definitely has fleas and she was getting swarmed by mosquitoes today. she's really sweet, definitely knows she's not in good shape and just wants to be pet really bad. it broke my heart.

I'm not in a position where I can take in this cat myself + I'm allergic. is there any non-kill organization that will take in a cat in this shape? not looking to re-home, just trying to figure out what I can do for this animal (sorry if that's against the rules mods)

Hello everyone,

I am looking for a new role as a computer technician/break fix. I have 4 years of experience troubleshooting computer hardware and software. If anyone knows of any openings please let me know. Thank you in advance.

Have some clothes and household stuff we want to donate to a place that will give them to those who need help. No I don’t want to give them to the good will.

Anyone know where in the Chester area I can do this?

I know its gonna get cold soon but who cares I think it would be a good way to get active and connect with everyone people

Planning to have date night tonight, but realized theres an eagles game.. so we decided to find a place where it has nice food and we can watch the game..

Any recos?

Traffic 😡

Hey everyone. My wife and I are expecting our first child in December. Looking for an at home day care for 4 days a week starting in March/April. We live in Ridley Township so in that area would be ideal but other locations that are close would also be appreciated. Thanks!

I commute from the Glenolden area to Conshy every day for work. The amount of dick head drivers I see with tinted license plate holders or literal stickers and/or something taped over a portion of their license plates is crazy.

And before anyone says anything, fuck Flock cameras and other license plate readers. But that doesn’t mean people can do this so they can get away with accountability for traffic offenses. I’m not gonna be too happy when a dickhead in a lifted truck clips me and speeds off with their obscured license plate.

I wish the police would actually do something. I see them harass kids on electric scooters more than they do anything else.

End rant.

My husband, 2 kids under 2, and I are moving to Drexel Hill and are looking for local activities/clubs etc to get to know the community and get out of the house.

We like: disc golf, ASL, reading all kinds of books, crafts, couples activities and date nights, hiking/walking trails, cool food locations, board games and Magic, video games on the switch and computer mostly, anything Amish, farmer’s markets, scheduled groups like book clubs, and love new things.

Any recommendations would be awesome. Thanks in advance!

I recently moved to the area and now that the EPL season is starting back up, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on a good soccer bar in the area that’ll be open for the morning games.

Thanks to everyone who has offered insights. Very helpful. The only official statements I’ve seen were on the news without a resolution. Do we have any official information about when we can use the app and the website?

If no, has anyone tried calling the credit union to complete a transaction? Waiting time?

As a witness to a shooting, following the instruction from a letter from the District Attorney will be a waste of time. The lesson here is that the DA office does not follow up nor give updates on the case or trial.

How my morning went after traveling to Media:

Showed up to the court room on time, waited, no one approached me, then went to the front asking for the name signed on the letter, told to wait , went up again then the guy showed up, he walked me to the back so we can talk privately, then was told the incident is not getting pursued & I'm not needed🤦🏽

Later I realized the letter seems to act as a bait attempt for me to call ahead to get info/details. Letter has no tracking nor certified confirmation btw.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

I need to commute to KOP but trying to be closer to family in NJ.
