Maybe you’ve seen one of these white and blue machines outside of the 69th St Terminal, but you don’t know what they are, and you’re much too embarrassed to ask. Well, they’re our DCHD Test and Go kiosks, and if you watch this video, you will learn so much more. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8DG61D9/

Gun violence is a preventable plague on our communities. In April, Delco banned ghost guns and machine gun conversion devices. We need the PA House to pass four critical gun safety bills, starting today. The time for action is now. www.delcotimes.com/2025/09/27/g...

Call us crazy, but SEPTA is actually a “good” investment because it lets people get to “work” on time and contribute “money” to the “economy”.

We post a lot about the things *you* like, the least you can do is read this piece about a good program we helped put together to create a pipeline of more teachers in Delco. (also, hopefully you support teachers) www.inquirer.com/education/de...
inquirer.com
Delaware County is one of dozens of Pa. counties facing a dire teacher shortage. This community college program is aiming to fix it.
Local educators say the program, which has tripled in size in three years, could serve as "a roadmap for the state."

This is exactly why our county government has been working with partners to prepare for this possibility. But there’s no way to easily replace what these hospitals mean to our residents. There is a real, human cost to Prospect turning its back on Delaware County.

We will not be posting any April Fools Day jokes. Haters will say it’s because we forgot that it was the first day of April until it was too late to have something prepared. But the real reason is because we’re too busy Solving All of the Problems. Too high-minded for such frivolities.
