who creates the lively art and music scenes if the rent is too high? who makes cultural life? who serves you food or washes your dishes? who creates the fancy little restaurants that draw you to urban living? affordable housing is at the heart of what makes city life worthwhile.

I tweet: "people who see 50% of their monthly paycheck go to rent don't care if a candidate eats with their hands. they want to hear what your candidate is going to do about housing."

what is Technical Death Metal

i never knew there was such a sub-subgenre of #deathmetal

i'm so grateful there wasn't a full layoff at @bandcamp.com after they got acquired. music & music writing is not something AI can ever replace.
thx for New Music Intro

After two decades of French-style loaves, a Bay Area bakery is calling it quits

This East Bay bakery was known for its variety of whole-grain and sourdough loaves, as well as cakes, cookies and laminated pastries, such as kouign-amann and stuffed croissants.

interesting.. publicly- vs privately-funded public art.

Could the Sijbrandij Foundation direct its Big Art Loop funding to the Public Art Trust, earmark it for large-scale temporary sculpture and let the SFAC do what they do best?

The Sijbrandij Foundation’s plan to install 100 pieces of large-scale art around the city needs public oversight.

omg. i wouldn't have let that one-sided convo go to 1h.

but what's missing is what if that person doesn't pause at all for you to interrupt politely

extroverts need to learn to pause. a millisecond doesn't count

autumn walk after work today.

2nd pic—plz remove cars. parked cars on street are ruining the views.

not looking forward to stupid daylight savings time, ruining the gradual reduction of light. then we'll completely miss the sunset *during* work hours

do firefighters get to go on field visits/learning or practice tours to single-stair buildings?

maybe some sort of trip like that would help.. like how some politicians had to go tour copenhagen and amsterdam for bike lanes

But far and away the most exciting part is the new free transfer scheme: an East Bay hiker traveling to Marin can save 40% off their fare compared to today!

Clipper 1.0 and 2.0 fare comparisons. With free transfers it goes down from $13.75 to $8.40

i think he also got doored once.

it definitely helps when politicians actually have real life transportation experience. a scorecard of who walks, bikes, takes transit

dy/dt @dt8k.bsky.social · 4d

they just asked him if he had clothes (he wasn't wearing a shirt) and gave him some food and water, tried to talk to him more and then left.

ughh there's no proper state system for #mentalhealth #psychiatric

it's obv these ppl shouldn't be left out on the street screaming & talking to imagnry ppl

dy/dt @dt8k.bsky.social · 4d

a man was screaming outside my bldg "porch" this afternoon. i called #oakland MACRO. they came.
i learned from my neighbor it was the 2nd time MACRO came today, bc he called them yesterday evening and they came by this morning.

but they can't do anything about him, they can't even ask him to move

dy/dt @dt8k.bsky.social · 6d

i made it
- no caffeine
- no alcohol
today. 😌
aughh i was almost gonna go to a cafe. ppl always look down on hard drug addicts while caffeine addiction is so glamorized with swag like "I haven't had my coffee yet"

yesterday i had
- boba
- regular kombucha.

friday
- line 51 beer at the new parkway

but there was an older couple + their dog who are regulars there, who i've seen several times.

forge pizza also closed on the waterfront. mainly slainte & barebottle now? (pubs / food+beer)

dy/dt @dt8k.bsky.social · 6d

dy/dt @dt8k.bsky.social · 6d

i dunno what to say to a friend who's gotten into maga sort of stuff

he said tucker carlson showed unedited video that the jan 6th violent takeover of the white house had a lot of FBI agents as part of the crowd

i don't know enough details to argue but i think his youtube algo is shot

i am annoyed by this gen z slang, too, because they often say "It's giving" without saying it's giving What 🤦‍♀️
