I’m on the N Judah and someone is wearing a Berkelium t-shirt (a t-shirt in June!), someone is taking pics of rainbow flags passing by, another is reading a book about Charles Manson while wearing bright pink crocs, and another is talking about OpenAI Is this not the most #SanFrancisco moment ever!

14yo got her 2nd Gardasil vaccine! I’m rejoicing that my daughters are now protected against the cervical cancer that killed my mother. Fuck all the vaccine-haters. These vaccines save lives & anyone who chooses not to protect their kid, boy or girl, from HPV is an idiot & menace to society.

SF friends - be gentle to your friendly neighborhood tech bros next week. The first "AI Engineer World's Fair" is happening in the city so there will be a lot more AI Engineers in SF. If you see them walking around in t-shirt and shorts looking confused, do nudge them to buy a sweatshirt.

Believe it or not, all three of these fish are the same species… the bluehead wrasse. Wrasses are protogynous hermaphrodites, meaning they transition from female to male over the course of their lives. Each phase can look radically different from each other as evidenced here #coralcitycamera
