@scottdomes Any advice for moving from level 2 to level 3? Currently when I have a strong emotion it sort of dominates my awareness, and it's hard to move on without letting it resolve.

quick sketch of where I’d like to see the democratic party go

If you haven't decided yet who to vote for, here's why I think you should vote for Harris.

[Kanishka @KaniKinSF]

Our community came together in a big way to make this happen tonight.

Thank you SF DCCC for hearing us and endorsing Prop D.

My favorite public comment tonight was that Prop D gives you hope for what SF government could be 🥹

[Tyler Angert @tylerangert]

On principle I think making new software that doesn’t force you to be inside but encourages you being outside is really important. Too many Serious Tools imply you need to be locked in an office for deep focus for it to be valuable. That’s sad

There's a bit of a tech beef brewing between NYC and SF. I'm all in on SF, but having a rivalry here will be great.

@micsolana I don't agree 100% with any political organization, but I think the growsf folks put a lot of good research into their voter guide and endorsements. They genuinely seem to be operating in good faith, which is rare in sf politics, and for that they deserve support.

@kaseyklimes My theory is that the nimby problem will go away if we just build new buildings that respect the local aesthetics.

FINAL

Heck of a season... just one win short.

[Emmett Shear @eshear]

San Francisco is trying a novel approach, where we try to destroy the quality of life in the city while keeping everyone grinding at their jobs. So far so good on destroying quality of life, but empirically prices just aren’t going down.

[London Breed @LondonBreed]

Today is a setback in our work to get to yes on housing. But I will not let this be the first step in a dangerous course correction back towards being a city of no. We will not move backward.

The enduring beauty of Henri Rivière's rural and urban landscapes, crafted between 1897 and 1916, drawing inspiration from Japanese ukiyo-e masters like Hiroshige and Hokusai

Future is looking bright ☀️🌁

[Blueprint @SFBlueprint_]

We’re feeling really proud of these results. It’s still early, but clear that our movement of 100k wants safety, accountability, and a city that works. Thanks to our community for delivering what could be a sweep 🧹

[Emmett Shear @eshear]

The right question is to investigate: what would it mean to create an AI that requires no one to bind it? What is the nature of caring for yourself and for others, such that their experiences matter to you?

[London Breed @LondonBreed]

In 2023, crime rates in SF dropped lower than it had in a decade. In 2024, our public safety progress continues. January 2024 had a 30% drop in property crime & 11% drop in violent crime compared to January 2023. Both remain below pre-pandemic levels.

“No more toxic politics” is all I really want

Julie Pitta has engaged in relentless bullying of Richmond residents for 4 yrs. She’s not capable of dialogue or policy debate, just character assassination and personal attacks. Now she’s exposed as a liar & a thief. No more toxic politics.

[John Doherty @john_c_doherty]

Celebrating what works is a key part of getting SF back on track! I’ve noticed a big improvement around civic center since they put in the skate park.

A creative solution to a long-standing problem that makes the city safer and more fun? We love to see it.
