Dr Patterson is absolutely the right answer. I am thankful for her every day and have been for close to 20 years. Absolutely the best I have only the most wonderful things to say about her she is a treasure.

Lmao what?? You suggested that we build more affordable housing instead of regular housing. I asked how you propose we do that. I haven't even made an argument let alone a "strawmany" one.
> But developers can still build affordable units and make a profit, especially if they take advantage of the aforementioned zoning bonuses
Sure, but that only works if they're part of a market rate development. The person I replied to before you jumped into the conversation is opposed to market rate development of any kind.

I will second the ALS Hope foundation, but also recommend the group at Jefferson. The treatment Jeff is using is groundbreaking and has had some excellent results in delaying progress. Good luck during this difficult time.

It wasn’t even a “take”, just a comment on the headline. You folks lit my ass up. I normally know when I’m going to get downvoted but definitely didn’t see it coming on this one.

I cannot recommend Dr Terry Patterson enough. She is unmatched as a doctor in this field. Her knowledge, care and understanding are as deep and vast as the oceans. She has treated someone important to me for 20 years and allowed her to maintain a great quality of life. This is the answer you are looking for. She is one of the leading researchers in this field, she is one of the beneficiaries of the Phillies ALS benefit. There should be a shrine built in her honor someday.

That area has a lot of potential but for some reason the town treats their downtown as a stroad and instead of apartment mixed use they are building more gas stations. Imagine once the bike path is built home prices will go up a lot.

Yes! I posted on a lot of groups. I’m really hopeful that it reaches the right person.

The proposed 3 days a month is a lot, like 13-15% of working days. Why not just give everyone more sick days instead of telling managers they may get 13%-15% less working time from women they hire.

I’ll keep my eye out as I don’t live very far and have cats myself so I understand. Assuming you did but post in some of the local Facebook groups with photos on the off chance someone scooped him up. Fingers crossed you find the spooky boi

That’s interesting and seems logical given that 1/5 of my friends and neighbors seem to “live” in NJ or elsewhere despite only leaving the city for holidays…

This sounds like a good way to disincentivize hiring women

These are good recommendations, however, I'll just say if you are having trouble with how competitive the housing is in Manyank/Roxborough it's the same if not worse in the nicer/walkable NJ suburbs.

Why would her husband even take that position if he couldn’t funnel money through his wife!

Sensational take... The more accurate way to state it would be: Pay your rent or get evicted.

> 90% of the time a developer will take a zoning bonus with the promise of having a green grocer and then you end up with a bank branch
If you're going to completely make up numbers it usually helps to make them semi-realistic. What a ridiculous claim lmao. I'm also not sure how any of that answers either of my questions....

It’s absurdly competitive here as well. Good luck.
