I was cheering friends at the Dipsea trail race and saw a smiling 90-year-old reach the top of Mt. Tam.

I tracked Lloyd Kahn down to get his secrets about aging. He answered all the questions ... then took our @sfchronicle.com team skateboarding.

Spotify is running ICE ads. I went to cancel on mobile and saw that this isn’t allowed on mobile. They make you cancel on desktop. You think that’s gonna stop me, Spotify? I will erase you and forget you ever existed.

Not today, Satan‼️

Got this garbage in the mail a few days ago. Republicans trying to trick California voters into voting NO on Prop 50. Suddenly they care about “democracy”? Please.

Vote YES on Prop 50. Don’t let the cheaters write the rules.

Brand-new publisher Acorn & Ink is seeking shorter works--10,000-15,000 words. But...its terms are horrible: a flat fee and no royalties for a 20-year (!!!) contract, or royalties with a back-end vanity arrangement (no royalties till £300 recouped) AND a 20-year contract

When they cut hospital funding, they cut critical hospital staff.

When they cut hospital staff, it puts lives at risk.

Just another consequence of the GOP's Big Ugly Bill.

We're real short on art subs. And scripts and essays, but mostly art. Don't self-reject! Throw your hat in the ring, and your work could be our next cover.
