Westerners are so weird. They show pictures of an incredible looking ultra modern city and tell me I should be afraid of this and should want crummy old properties that cost a quadrillion dollars.

I will say what's implied here: if you're pro-housing & pro-tenant in District 4 Berkeley, vote for Ruben and Igor but also tenant activist Soli Alpert! I prefer Soli over Igor. Nevertheless, *do not put Elena Auerbach* on your ballot who's running on an unapologetic NIMBY slate

Its depressing the failure of the current Alameda Board of Supes has let AC Transit cut so much frequency. Still, im happy bus local coverage is returning to corridors like Alcatraz and Adeline.

I re-watched Episode I and aside from the cgi characters, the cgi backgrounds and ships hold up well, especially when integrated with physical sets. Episode 2 looks bad when the whole sets are just blue screen.

“Mao freed Tibet” is so cool like apparently colonialism that “civilises barbaric nations” is cool if the ones doing it are people you like

Librarian twitter destroyed me and death threatened me for suggesting libraries should sell snacks and coffee. This was during the peak of covid lockdown mania. Im still pretty traumatized from this.
