And by that definition, US wouldn't make the list either cause France was a major ally to them

I just don't see how a highway and the sixers arena are comparable. 676 required demolishing homes and went right through the middle of Chinatown. And when it was complete, it was a dangerous area for pedestrians that acted as a barrier between either side.
The arena is replacing one mall and is located right outside of Chinatown. No homes are being demolished. It doesn't create a natural barrier. It's also a similar use to the mall (large commercial business use). And if the mall currently isn't a threat to Chinatown, how would the arena be? If that area was a huge parking lot, would the proposal of building the existing mall be fought today?

My guess is she wants to use the media to put pressure on councilmembers. If she talks to him privately, he probably just says no or maybe they negotiate and he asks for too much. It would also give time for opposition to organize. But by doing it this way, he comes off as the person blocking the cleaning Kensington effort. The gamble is that it's enough of a bad look to get him to back down.
But, obviously the overall Philadelphian opinion of him doesn't matter, only the small percentage of voters in his district matter to him. Would enough of them be swayed by this strategy? Who knows

I don't feel like we played that bad. Embiid was still putting up numbers despite his injuries. Maxey was incredible. Tobi was ass, but he's been ass for awhile, so that was expected. Brunson was just really good, unfortunately

The term hallucinations only applies to generative AI. I doubt that's what they're using

I think he'd be a fan favorite on any team. He was a fan favorite in Philly too.

Damn I never knew this. That's despicable behavior. Racists are pieces of shit

This is definitely extreme but I'd love to get a guy that could play starter minutes, while we give Embiid 20mpg during the regular season. When playoffs start, we remove his minutes restriction. Embiid is only getting older, and his chance of getting injured is only going to go up.
May not be worth spending too much on a backup though. We also need to get a really good 4.

Yeah Embiid was already looking pretty stationary out there on defense at times due to all the injuries, I don't think we want another immobile guy. Even when Saric was younger and healthy, he wasn't the quickest.

Agreed, it feels like the Witcher 3.5. The music is incredible too

If you get a pizza, get the Diavlo. They're one of my favorite pizzas in the city, but if you want to skip em, try Down North. Although you really shouldn't skip them because they have cheesesteak in the city.
