The @phillyinquirer is worth investing in, and so are the people who make it possible: the writers, editors, social media, advertising, multiplatform and technology staffers who bring the region's news to hundreds of thousands every day.

Last year, bucking decades of decline in a struggling industry, The Inquirer saw its first revenue increase since 2004. Now, as management asks our dedicated readership to keep investing in our newspaper, we ask management to invest in the people powering it.

We're asking for meaningful raises, affordable healthcare, AI guardrails, and more inclusive hiring practices.

at @cantina.la.martina.philly Chef Dionicio Jiménez takes the traditional flavors and dishes from all parts of Mexico to share his culture with Philadelphia.

in our latest story with Jiménez, he shares what it’s like cooking with chapulines (grasshoppers), chicatanas (ants), and worms, creating some of the most unique dishes in the region.

it’s not only Cantina La Martina either. you can’t miss out on @seamarket_fdrpark either where Khmer dishes from Cambodia bring edible insects to FDR Park.

When New Jersey legalized recreational marijuana in 2021, the state allowed municipalities to decide if they wanted to participate in the cannabis industry.

Nearly two-thirds of the state’s 564 municipalities voted to “opt out” and bar adult-use operations.

Dozens of towns later reversed their positions. But on Jan. 30, New Jersey State Senate President Nicholas Scutari introduced a bill that could give the state the power to override local opt-out decisions in certain cases.

After months of radio silence, New Jersey’s empty weed lounges can soon apply for licenses, with a possibility of lounges opening in 2025.

Plus, how is Atlantic City dealing with oversaturation? In 2024, there are more weed dispensaries than there are casinos, with dozens more cannabis businesses on the way.

As an elder millennial who grew up watching people get slimed on Nickelodeon’s “You Can’t Do That on Television” and “Double Dare,” Inquirer columnist Stephanie FarrI’ve always wanted to know what it feels like to get covered in neon green goo.

So when she was pitched a chance to experience Philly’s newest immersive team-building experience, @beatthebomb, which opened mid-October and bills itself as a real-life video game where teams get doused with slime, paint, or foam if they lose, Farr saw it as perhaps the only opportunity she would ever have to fulfill this strange childhood dream.

In order to play, you need a team of four to six people. Farr asked her colleagues on The Inquirer’s features desk — Henry Savage, Rosa Cartagena, and Sam Ruland — and social media manager Esra Erol (who came to shoot video but got sucked into the game) to get slimed with her in the name of journalism.

Since the start of the @premierleague and @mls in the 90s, local fan clubs for English soccer teams have been growing in Philadelphia.

For them, to finally see these two worlds colliding — English soccer and Philly sports fandom — will culminate this weekend with the biggest event in their clubs’ existence.

Premier League Summer Series is this weekend in Philly at @lff.stadium, so @phillyinquirer sat down with founders of some of the local supporters clubs to see how the scene came to be, how it’s grown and how Philly is shaping up to be an American hub for international soccer with Premier League favoring the city and the World Cup coming here in 2026.
