John Anderies @cccamac.bsky.social · 24/07/2026@septa-social.bsky.social Can you explain why I couldn't use my keycard for 15 minutes between getting off Regional Rail at Jefferson Station and getting on the L at 11th St Station? Seems like that would be a frequent thing people do when commuting. 100
John Anderies @cccamac.bsky.social · 26/06/2026Also the kiosks are going right on their business saying buses are arriving. 010
John Anderies @cccamac.bsky.social · 26/06/2026@septaphilly.bsky.social How about putting signs up at 13th and market that no buses are stopping there? People have been waiting for 20-30 minutes. Not everyone has an app to check the detours! 130

John Anderies @cccamac.bsky.social · 06/12/2025Still feeling grateful to have received the "LGBTQ+ History Keeper Award" at Councilmember Rue Landau's 2nd Annual Philadelphia LGBTQ+ Hall of Fame Awards this past week.

John Anderies @cccamac.bsky.social · 22/07/2025@septa-social.bsky.social There’s no sign at 3rd and Market indicating that the 17 is not stopping there. Several people waiting on it as it made this detour. 030

John Anderies @cccamac.bsky.social · 01/07/2025So very sad for my alma mater. Some of the most prestigious programs. Not shown here, but I understand the world famous Historical Performance Institute (Early Music Institute when I was there) will no longer be accepting majors either. 030
John Anderies @cccamac.bsky.social · 26/05/2025I actually got this driver and his Eagles-themed car on a Lyft ride home one night in April. It was so wild! I wasn’t sure @riversaredamp.bsky.social would believe me so I recorded a bit of the ride to show him. I’ll post my video in the thread. share.inquirer.com/MWGEeSshare.inquirer.comIt screeches like an eagle, has a replica Lombardi Trophy, and is the most sought-after ride in Philly. Unless you’re a Cowboys fan.You’ll likely hear Mucha Nama’s minivan before you see it. From playing “Fly, Eagles Fly” to adorning it with decorations, his Birds mobile is a hit — for most of his customers. 2154
John Anderies @cccamac.bsky.social · 25/05/2025“and perhaps more importantly, earmarking additional grant funds to digitize and make available content.” Agree, completely. At my archives the same dozen already digitized on the web images and videos are requested again and again over efforts to see what else we have that requires digitization. 050

Egregious changes made to the Stonewall National Monument site (erasing all instances of trans and queer) & the disappearance of resources like the monumental “LGBTQ America” theme study. 11714

John Anderies @cccamac.bsky.social · 23/02/2025Latin Americanists and foreign film buffs: Trying to ID a Latin American film. Only have a meter of 35mm film. Might be titled PRESTAMOS. Kodak edge code suggests copy made in 1922, 1942, or 1962. Perhaps actors, military uniform, or locale will help with ID. 121
