🛠️ Just got back from the 2025 California Co-Op Conf. Feeling inspired by the incredible workers and organizers building across food, housing, tech, and more. Also learned about new policy efforts like AB 746, aimed at establishing a prison co-op for incarcerated workers 🌱

Interesting details about food delivery biz in SF. There's a SoMa company that rents cargo e-bikes to deliveristas. Good in that it's greener than driving, but exploitative: they make the renter 50% liable for theft. As @veenadubal.bsky.social observes though, Doordash is the primary exploiter here.

This week’s hearing on police overtime abuse was a turning point. Supervisors Walton and Fielder deserve enormous credit for sponsoring this hearing, which may be the first real step toward breaking San Francisco’s addiction to wasteful police spending.

“According to organizers with the ACLU, who presented on the overtime fiasco on Monday evening, it appears the cuts to services are explicitly targeting ‘queer people, women, and immigrants.’” brokeassstuart.com/2025/05/01/p...

Pleasantly surprised to see supervisors across the SF political spectrum including Chan and even Engardio (good on him!) call out cuts to eviction legal defense, financial coaching, and other social services. Cutting SFPD overtime to fund these services would be a huge net win for public safety!

While right wing techbro Garry Tan (the Musk sycophant who called for the death of SF elected officials) has a complete meltdown on the bad site, now is a great time to support and donate to the grassroots organizations he and his fellow right wing tech bros attack. Links below.

Everyone should be able to travel without the fear of surveillance and retaliation. States like California, Illinois, and Massachusetts are taking steps to protect location data privacy and defend our right to move freely without fear. More states must join.

Great new piece by @katewillett.bsky.social “On their book tour, Thompson and Klein sound less like journalists and more like spokesmen for these groups, repeating polished talking points about who the enemies of Abundance are—leftists—and who isn’t to blame after all: oligarchs.”

@jay.bsky.team Revenue model I would love for Bsky: get me through paywalls, letting me give micropayments to participating journalistic websites. & let me sponsor friends access to paywalled articles that I share. Also allow microdonations to non-paywall sites ie NPR. Bsky + journalists get paid!

Fiscal sponsorship is a great model for new change movements, but this is a reminder of why it can be limiting. On the upside, this was a moment for recalibration that spurred growth. Congratulations! #Values #STEM

Everyone knows that San Francisco is facing a huge housing crisis. Waiting for private developers to fund and build the housing we need isn’t working. A new report confirms what I’ve been saying for years: San Francisco can build our own. Let’s do it.
