Democrats' New Abundance Platform Isn't Playing Out Well in San Francisco Under billionaire rule, the city’s so-called abundance means more for the richβ€”and less for everyone else.

I don't know much about current affairs. This, however, is a very good take on the fubar situation in SF. www.currentaffairs.org/news/democra...

Marin Headlands Oct 2. Government shutdown. No cars. No motor vehicle noise, but jet planes loud and clear. Birds chirping. Ravens. Fog. Nah. We can't see what's coming.

Americans need to know history. In France under NAZI occupation, Vichy was the cops. The city police. Vichy deported (thus killed) the Jews and also killed Socialists and Communists. Killed good people that cared for humanity. Will DC police union be Vichy?

You know, cut the 21 to GG Park, reduce capacity on the 6-7 lines. Gut your green trolley bus network and call it a success. Neoliberal mobility. Neoliberal Board of Sups and Mayor. What could go wrong?

The science behind Texas’ catastrophic floods At least 95 people died in the flash floods. The disaster has the fingerprints of climate change all over it.

While California neoliberals and YIMBY celebrate gutting CEQA, there is Texas, with weak environmental review. You know. God's will and all. grist.org/climate/the-...

In case you were wondering, the solution to all this is NOT more neoliberalism, abundance bros, mass incarceration, meeting Nazis in the middle, deporting people, coddling billionaires, or throwing trans people under the bus.

A Look at Zohran Mamdani’s Stances on Key Issues

There is now a thuggish secret police operating in the United States. We are all responsible for this.

Respectfully: Do you wonder why the dire situation, when the city is so full of wealthy tech & real estate? Why cut lines to parks when it was promised for car free space? Why cut electric trolley bus lines - the most green? Why cut transit that is required for future housing density?

2) SFMTA is cutting bus service to GG Park (21 & 5) after the city promised to make the park more transit accessible during the JFK car free debate in 2022. Ah well, Neoliberal mobility Uber Alles.

1) The approved high density housing at Market and Van Ness was approved assuming the 6, 21, 5 busses would provide the needed transit capacity.

Private cars for tech bros and their computers on Market St? Then comes Uber & Lyft. Next apps exploiting gig workers for rich people's ice cream? Then SUV owners of connect SF? Meanwhile city policy is: cut Muni; no progress on safe cycling or walking. Shows a city taken over by AI tech bros

Gay preservationist Alan Martinez dies Alan Wayne Martinez, a gay man and architect who was involved in San Francisco historic preservation efforts, has died, friends and family members said.

San Francisco land use and transport politics has lost a lot of thoughtful, reflective, intelligent people to gentrification, displacement, exhaustion, and billionaire tech bro astro-turf scams, etc. And now we lost Alan. Damn. Our loss deepens. www.ebar.com/story/154795

Seeking solitude and safety, riders flock to robotaxis driven by computers The popularity of self-driving robotaxis is exploding, and some riders say a car with a computer at the helm feels safer than trusting a stranger.

β€œWe’re at this moment when there’s a fusion of Silicon Valley technology and mobility – which at the moment is extremely profitable,” Henderson said. β€œIt’s a very urban, upper-income subset.” www.usatoday.com/story/money/...

Commentary: Muni Rail Needs to Lift its Bike Ban Before a Funding Measure Goes to a Vote - Streetsblog San Francisco Not allowing cyclists on the rail system just makes it harder to get a measure passed

@streetsblogsf.bsky.social I've had similar thoughts lately as I've toggled between taking the M and cycling to SF State. We need to tap the symbiosis potential of cycling and public transit. sf.streetsblog.org/2025/05/01/c...
