My heart goes out to @savannahguthrie.bsky.social and family. Tucson is my home town and it tears me up thinking a Tucsonan is capable of this kind of harm. Hoping for her mothers swift return

Sometimes it takes 7 years to update your @actualylt.bsky.social Yo La Tengo framed Fillmore concert posters. Great show @thefillmore.bsky.social last night. Cool to see young people there but do they need to take selfies with labubus at Yo La Tengo & Luna like the gnome from Amelie?

Because you have to get everything installed & documented by December 31 it’s important to line up your contractor now. We can help.

Confused about expiring energy credits under the Trump administration? Ask an 'electric coach' The Trump administration is sunsetting nearly a dozen tax credits aimed at helping people electrify their homes and cars. Volunteer electricity coaches are helping people navigate the savings before t...

#booksky Very retro to have Susanna Kwan, author of Awake in the Floating City at our pot luck to discuss her book in person! If you’re a reader in San Francisco invite her! The book envisions life in the City in 2050 when it is under water. #climatechange

Same in San Francisco

Thank you. Please stay vigilant.

The MN murders made me recall the judge who sentenced the man who assaulted Nancy Pelosi’s husband with a hammer to his brain. She said violence makes good people not want to run for office or be public servants because they don’t want to put their families at risk. Yet another horrific example.

When the judge sentenced the man who assaulted Nancy Pelosis’ husband with a hammer to his brain she said that violence like this makes good people afraid to be public servants. & run for office. Here we are again with an even more horrific example.

Thanks to @tokyovice.bsky.social for writing the book that created the show that helped me through Covid. I will check out his podcast on the country’s disappeared: The Evaporated. I had a great trip to Japan this year & my sister, thanks to the Yakuza, could not join me in the onsen: tattoos.

Thanks to @kxcitucson.bsky.social for turning me onto to @mommaband.bsky.social So great to turn on the radio and find new music to love. They’re really great live!

Jennifer Granholm: For Real Energy Dominance, We Need the IRA Biden’s Secretary of Energy argues that if Trump wants to achieve his goals, preserving his predecessor’s manufacturing incentives is the only way.

Repealing the IRA's clean energy tax credits would be a bad move.

"Strip the IRA, and we lose supply chains. We lose factories. For what? To make China stronger? To make our grid weaker? To raise bills?"

A lot of us dusted off our protest gear from 2017 today. Sadly it still fits. #handsoff #sanfrancisco

The small but mighty federal tax credit that supports 240,000 jobs nationwide | Rewiring America A new Rewiring America analysis shows how the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Tax Credit drives consumer demand critical to supporting domestic jobs.

I really like that you are spotlighting this book as well as supporting our libraries! They are a great resource that is always on trend!

China’s BYD Cemented Its Lead on Tesla in Five Minutes The Chinese EV-maker shocked the world with a fast charger, while the US is still figuring out if EVs are too woke.

While Tesla recalls its glued-together dumpster trucks, China's BYD is cranking out reasonably priced EVs that charge in 5 minutes. Yes, 5 minutes.

Thank goodness tariffs are protecting us from these, huh?

Gutting clean energy incentives would drive up electric bills Rising energy costs are a problem in the U.S. Ending Inflation Reduction Act tax credits and ramping up fossil fuels would make it even worse.

How about: let’s keep the jobs, the billions in investment, and the more affordable electricity for U.S. businesses and households. Read this new report on what’s on the line for our economy and for our monthly bills. @canarymedia.com @jeffstjohn.bsky.social www.canarymedia.com/articles/cle...

Today we took the L Taraval from the Castro to the Outer Sunset, walked the Great Highway from Taraval to Judah, then took the N Judah back to Duboce Park.

Transit is amazing. Parks & public space are amazing. Cities are amazing. San Francisco is amazing.

Urbanism is where it’s at.

Today in #sanfrancisco & #MissionbaySF. #internationalwomensday

Are you old enough to remember S&H green stamps? You’d cash them in for big ticket household items. This year my tax liability has been reduced by thousands thanks to Form 5695 IRA Energy Efficiency & Residential Energy credits just like that. lisaryers.substack.com/p/cashing-in...
