if there's a reason to keep up the "tribunals for all involved" discourse one such reason it is to put in stark relief how far away some of the Dem politicking is from the mood on the ground
eric swalwell said on msnow that a major goal of a dem majority after the midterms would be for ice masks to come off and badges to come out, this is insufficient

With such a constant focus on arguing for Flock, local media disdain actual real time investigations about whether it works. Take for example, the hi profile story about a horrible hit and run on 73rd by a speeding car in the bike lane. 6 Flock ALPRs, but no arrests?

Lots of talk about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's win in NY, but we can have policies that benefit working people here in the Bay Area!
💪 The first step is building a mass movement against the billionaires taking over our city.

The 49 was always busy, but it had the 47 to buffer.
The 38, 1, 5, 6… every east/west buses were always busy, but we had the 3, 21 and the 5, 31, 6, 7 on Market to buffer.
We’re poking at the fabric of our transit network. Terrifying.

It's just hitting me as a frequent 22 and 49 rider, and a not frequent rider of the other lines at peak times, what a zoo the 1, 45, and 38R must be if they're that much worse. 😨
Notice how the 28 19th Avenue is not far behind the 38 in crowding. (Btw, we should fix this near-term with more buses. Tell Mayor Lurie the Muni parcel tax needs to support a service increase: muniforever.org/speak-up)

This is a good start but the subway should curve south down 19th Ave, meet up with Daly City BART and continue on the BART tracks down to Millbrae. That part is essential; a branch to Outer Richmond could be added later as a nice-to-have.

This aged poorly. Mamdani is now stuck in a shit job (mayor of New York City). So much for that bright future of his.
Sad to hear Mamdani is losing. He's young though and has a bright future ahead of him.

Nah. Tesla's irresponsibility is a huge gift to Waymo and Zoox by letting them look like good guys. But robotaxis are gunning to cannibalize public transit, just like Uber and Lyft before them. The robotaxi excuse to defund transit will lead to more driving: more congestion, emissions, and deaths.

The real story of the upzoning debate in SF right now is that the mayor and the YIMBY supervisors don’t have the courage (or interest) to take on wealthy single family home owners in rich white neighborhoods (upzone Pac Heights, etc) so they are upzoning demolitions of rent controlled homes instead.
