Republicans don't care if a data center ruins our water. They don't care if it spikes our electric bill. They don't care about the noise, or if living in a community with one is a nightmare They just see dollar signs Republicans don't care about the American people But #RepublicansLOVEDataCenters

RIP Sonny Rollins, a great jazz talent and the last surviving musician in one of the best photos of men in suits during the 20th century

Felt good to push aside all the consistency, structure and order I deal with throughout the workday and make whatever the hell I want for a few hours. #cutandpaste

Today I completed my 2025 New Year’s resolution: to ride the bus in Redwood City at least once. I’ve taken a bus everywhere I’ve lived for over a year except for Redwood City. It was time. #publictransit

A great story on the making of Fran Sans, a typeface based on electronic San Francisco muni signs which are soon to be retired 😢. emilysneddon.com/fran-sans-es... Found it via @letterformarchive.org #typography

Powerful to rally today with several hundred teachers, families, and community members in support of West Contra County teachers! Our community supports the strike and will be out in the streets every day until teachers get a fair contract.

Today, Starbucks workers in 40+ cities began a historic ULP strike. But we’re NOT finished. We're prepared to escalate with more stores striking if we don’t see substantial progress toward finalizing contracts that address pay, hours/staffing, and the resolution of 100s of ULPs.

! Preordered this one, I just have to go pick it up from Stranded. daily.bandcamp.com/features/par... #vinylcommunity #experimental #velvetunderground #suncitygirls

WE WON! After 42 days of striking we have a tentative agreement in hand that protects our existing 4 day work week, establishes a minimum salary, and adds protections against AI replacing jobs at our workplace!

Shutter to Think in SF, Monday Nov 10. They were great! So glad these guys are playing again. #music #90srock

While progressives often get accused of undermining the Democratic Party, the evidence shows that it’s the moderate wing that most often violates the “Vote Blue No Matter Who” principle. https://trib.al/ayccoO7
