It’s also a lot less hassle to ride the elevator to the top of Macy’s than to schlep up to Napa

Reddit breaking markdown has to be the dumbest, most pointless enshittification yet, right? Up there with Apple making the address bar stupid in Mac Safari

Incredible things (Alfred quoting their .net Bluesky account from their .com Bluesky account with more details on a truly ridiculous housing situation) are happening in Berkeley, California.

Steve Earle's Dixieland is also a perfect way to consume the concentrated feeling of this part of Gettysburg if you don't have time to watch the whole thing at any given moment: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z63w...

I figure I’ll probably be in the market for an air conditioner at some point in the next couple decades, and it sure would be cool if it were cheap and environmentally friendly. Also, like 100M Americans will need one before me, so

Fact check: one of the biggest bike rides in the world is in Iowa. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAGBRAI

@rollovereasy.org good morning from the ribbon cutting for SF’s newest bike lane, on Beach Street! Sup. Sherrill said he’s a new ebike owner!

You need to look at the whole block. With two-stair requirements, the entire block is going to be one building with two stairways, each down a long hallway from people’s apartments. With single-stair, the block can have half a dozen buildings, each with a staircase right outside people’s front doors

This is a funny contrast to draw with the totally vibes-based existing code development process

Uh, some personal news,,,,

Getting really into the discover tab. Is the discover tab…. Good?

I think it would be fun to watch a football game in a bar with this guy

the second el-sayed chose to treat tommy as an equal and not a nuisance, tommy was cooked

It was 24-3 at halftime lol

Well hello there 🐶

Glad to know my earthquake drill notifications are working

Can't believe the Youtube algorithm made this horrible surprised face normal and everyone just went along with it

Satellite pix show a nifty cloud eddy off Point Reyes right now. I wonder if this is a sign of the wind shift bringing Diablo Winds tomorrow.

Good morning @rollovereasy.org. The sun is setting too early these days, in my humble opinion. But the sun is also rising in the morning too early. That’s why I propose that this fall, instead of falling back like usual, we instead spring forward again and make daylight EXTRA savings time.

I've long had an intuition that impact fees are counterproductive because of the way they preserve below-market Prop 13 tax assessments. Nice to see research that backs that up -- and finds even more harms.

Why are there so many airplanes over San Francisco 2 hours before the air show starts?

Hasan Piker is just Stephen A. Smith for lefty politics

I’ve been working on single stair reform for years. HAC sponsored a bill in Sacramento this year and we’re honoring leaders from Culver City on Single Stair reform. Any framing that this is single stair reform in SF is factually inaccurate. @jkdineen.bsky.social

Ok the reveal exceeded expectations.

I love fleet week

it’s funny how there’s zero coherent theory of change here. just standard starve the beast conservatism: Step 1: massively defund transit operations Step 2: ???? Step 3: magically achieve Scandinavian transit costs

Considering voting No on Measure RTM?

@rollovereasy.org good morning! I have a couple of magnets somewhere that I got at Free Art Fridays when I lived in Atlanta. Love that they’re bringing it to SF!

If Bo French really cared about assimilation, he would have changed his last name to Freedom a long time ago.

Oh boy, oh boy! It’s finally here! A new document, just for me!

People in Toronto are way too into outdoor swimming pools. Who are you trying to impress?

This is the animating principle of my YIMBYism.

Gonna start calling Will Call “Bill Call” for short

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! I’ll be at Hardly Strictly all weekend. HMU if you wanna meet up!

Enjoy this fog while it lasts, San Francisco
