Ron Killings cutting off his dreads live on Netflix was something else.

The only protest violence described in this article by the Chronicle is two people trying to smash a door with a sledgehammer. Ain't no way 150 people wielded those sledgehammers. So I call bullshit on Mayor Lurie's statement about "protest violence". 🎁🔗 www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

There's already two resolutions for impeachment in the House. H.Res.353 (Shri Thanedar) and H.Res.415 (Al Green). Thanedar's has 7 articles of impeachment as of 5/13. Green's has just 1. Thanedar was to have made a privileged motion about his, but that appears to be on some parliamentary hold.

For some reason, I thought the protest last night was around the immigration court at 100 block of Sansome. So I avoided getting a bagel at Boichik this morning in case there was a remaining police presence. Looking at the address of the main protest though, it appears to have been 5 blocks north.

A presentation at the Sound Transit board meeting today drops the news that ST is working to roll out open payment and the ability to pay by tapping credit/debit cards ahead of next year's World Cup events.

Don't worry, no one uses this bike lane that connects the Rainier valley to the CID and downtown Seattle

No ethical consumption of Harry Potter.

Trying to appease Trump doesn't work. Appeasement to him is a signal he should squeeze harder.

Wherever will the 49ers find money?

asshole neighbor is trying to chase off homeless folks using the excuse that he has to "clean the sidewalk". he's been hosing the street for 30 minutes. good thing there's no drought.

On the 24th I put in a SF311 request to get flexposts on the bike lane on 7th between Mission & Market. There were like 4 when I moved here, and only 1 (very sad looking) one was left. There were 10 (TEN) fresh flexposts separating the lane from traffic today.

If I can't vote for ordinances that increase the bottom line for my business, why would I want to be on the city council?
