I like that Wiener campaign showed it’s hand as soon as the polls closed. Straight to trying to control local media. Something to think about and watch for those who aren’t that familiar with him.

I’ve waited my entire adult life for Pelosi to be gone and now she’s being replaced by someone who’s somehow even worse

Too bad Connie Chan is going to lose. I went be her campaign headquarters tonight, it was all Union people. Tech money rules the Bay Area so we get the Wieners.

Justin Herman used eminent domain to bulldoze 60 sq blocks of the Fillmore, destroying over 450 Black-owned businesses and displacing thousands of Black and minority families.
In less than a generation, The Fillmore went from Black cultural epicenter to “one of those ghettos.”

A thread on why YIMBY must end.
The SF incarnation of this deadly movement goes back to 1960

“Zionism has brought millions of people to a state of utter derangement,” Pulitzer Prize winner Benjamin Moser said, noting that pro-Israel commentators struggle to even acknowledge that Palestinians are human.
Moser questioned the value of platforming such views in the name of “balance,” comparing it to debating the merits of Nazism or inviting a member of the KKK to provide an opposing perspective when interviewing a Black guest.

Yes. We got fucked up in the encampments. And we are getting fucked up by surveillance. But if there's one thing we learned in prison, it dont matter if you are gonna get fucked up or not... You have to fight.
The consequences of not fighting will be worse.

back in 2018 i met one of JD vance's acolytes and when he heard i worked in tech policy, he went off on some diatribe about how we need a benevolent monarch because democracy has failed.
these dweebs yearn for caesar, but they actually just spout curtis yarvin pseudophilosophy.

The ER is something else. The amount of activity is super overwhelming. I can’t imagine being a nurse working at this pace. The sounds of patients screaming, the machines beeping, the scrape of the curtains opening. All sounds you become familiar with. All sounds that become part of your memory of this horrible time in your life. You know you need to be here but you’d rather be anywhere but here. You long to rewind time back to a place where this beast we call addiction didn’t have its hooks in your loved one. You yearn for a time that has past, grieve for a person who no longer exists, but is laying right in front of you. If the love of a family could cure addiction, it wouldn’t exist. I pray for all the mothers who have been where I sit now. I pray for peace. I pray for release of your worries. I pray for recovery.
