I'm excited to announce that this week I've joined the City of San Francisco, leading communications for the Mayor's Economic Recovery project. As a life long San Franciscan who was born and raised here, I know there's so much work to be done, but I also know my city is worth it!
In this week's @NewYorker, I report from San Francisco, which, in the eyes of the national press, went from metropolitan ideal to urban nightmare in suspiciously short order. What's actually going on? https://t.co/17bSLiCout
Sen. John Fetterman: "If those jagoffs in the House stop trying to shut our government down, and fully support Ukraine, then I will save democracy by wearing a suit on the Senate floor next week."
A top official compared San Francisco to "the Yankees in a slump"...presumably "Giants in a slump" would have been a bit too on the nose😬

Before the pandemic, our average ridership on a summer weekday was 10,799 passengers.
On Tuesday we hit ... 10,795 passengers.
So close! Like, 99.96295953329012% close. Can we round up? 😄
Thank you commuters, day-trippers and baseball fans!
A quick story about Tweets and Japan-
If you didn't know, Japan is the 2nd largest market for Twitter. And part of the reason why is the immense amount of thought that went into translating the word "Tweet" into Japanese.
In Opinion
"An obvious lesson from the gargantuan success of both 'Barbie' and the Eras Tour is that there is a huge, underserved market for entertainment that takes the feelings of girls and women seriously," Michelle Goldberg writes. https://t.co/IXhebqz507
