Ok here is the thing with action/praxis/protest/showing up:

Sometimes you contribute by being a megaphone. Sometimes by being a wallet. Sometimes by being a physical body. Sometimes by being fuel or being relief.

If you can’t be one thing at any given moment you can almost certainly be another.

Biden commutes sentence for Leonard Peltier, convicted in FBI killings The Native American activist says he did not receive a fair trial in the slayings of FBI agents Ronald Williams and Jack Coler at Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.

In one of his final acts as president, Joe Biden on Monday commuted the life sentence of Native American activist Leonard Peltier, whose case had become a rallying cry for the Indigenous movement in the nearly 50 years since his conviction for killing two FBI agents.

Someone is buying up a historic coastal city. Is it the next California Forever? The quaint seaside city of Point Arena is being systemically gobbled up by a series of limited liability companies. Who or what is behind the purchases?

I spent the past year getting to know Point Arena, a tiny CA city that’s being bought up by a mysterious network of LLCs. why? and who’s doing it? residents still don’t know, but a tight-lipped city councilmember might have all the answers www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/arti...

Grateful + proud to have gotten to work on the photo portion of this fantastic year long, deep investigative piece by @soleilho.com about corporate transparency, big landlords wreaking havoc + the responsibility of public officials in Point Arena, California

I suggest the Wandrd PRVKE backpack instead considering that the Peak Design CEO had this to say in regards to Comrade Hottie, The People’s Adjuster. I also just think it is all around a better product.

Humans and waterfowl alike were unpressed, unbothered, moisturized, in their lane, sailing, bobbing and chatting with friends along the Berkeley waterfront shortly after yesterday’s tsunami warning was cancelled. Shot for @sfstandard.com

Thanksgiving gives me the ick in many ways (historically, gastronomically, etc.) but I’m grateful it’s a day when nearly all my service industry friends have off. Grateful for chef friends who say β€œbring the dog and we will do something casualβ€” a glass of wine and maybe a couple light snacks” πŸ˜³πŸ˜‚

Modern Warfare Is Breeding Deadly Superbugs. Why? Researchers are trying to understand why resistant pathogens are so prevalent in the war-torn nations of the Middle East.

Fascinating and deeply disturbing article on the correlation between modern warfare and the rise of treatment resistent pathogens www.nytimes.com/2024/11/26/m...

West is definitely a little better, but it’s also still terrible depending on the time. I have only had my car hit once there but have witnessed a number of verbal altercations both inside and out and once had a shopper who didn’t believe my disabled license plates belong to me call the cops. πŸ™ƒ

Gonna throw an honorable mention for most menacing and cursed lots to the ACME Bread / Kermit Lynch shared parking at San Pablo + Cedar.
