Insanity. Highest cost / sq ft when you think about retrofitting existing phone booths with structural engineering, water lines, etc. - tens of thousands of dollars per booth. Believe @nedsegal working on this, apparently it’s all of CA not just SF w/ this ridiculous policy
The city of SF now considers office phone booths a fire code violation because they don't have sprinklers.
So much for our new pro growth regime @DanielLurie@garrytan
UN just halved it's data on civilian deaths with prior #'s coming from Hamas(!) 🤬
the "combatant:civilian ratio" in this war—horrrifc as ALL wars are + more visible than past wars were—may be lowest urban warfare ever conducted by any country in history.

I’ll bet most of you don’t know this, so it’s worth a quick watch.
My numbers are slightly different but these are good approximates.
Might be worth teaching our children so they have their facts straight before college.
For a second, imagine that black students at Columbia were taunted with chants of "Go back to Africa."
Or imagine that a gay student at Yale was surrounded by homophobic protesters and hit in the eye with a flagpole.
Or imagine if a campus imam told Muslim students that they ought to head home for Ramadan because campus public safety could not guarantee their security.
There would be relentless fury from our media and condemnation from our politicians.
Just remember the righteous—and rightful—outrage over the white supremacist “Unite the Right” march in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017, where neo-Nazis chanted “The Jews will not replace us.”
This weekend at Columbia and Yale, student demonstrators did all of the above—only it was directed at Jews. They told Columbia students to “go back to Poland.” A Jewish woman at Yale was assaulted with a Palestinian flag. And an Orthodox rabbi at Columbia told students to go home for their safety.
What will the response be?

Tel Aviv just voted 10-0 to have SF clean up the human feces and heroine needles on their streets before thinking they have a right to preach to anyone about literally anything.
Red Cross in 1944: “We found no trace of installations for exterminating civilian prisoners in Auschwitz” 👇
Red Cross in 2023: “We found no evidence of weapons or hostages being kept in hospitals in Gaza”
Here's our perspective, as both Arabs and Muslims, on #Hamas: we unequivocally view it as a terrorist organization. Anyone who stands by it, supports it, or justifies any of its actions is, in our eyes, endorsing terrorism and contributing to destruction, not construction. We wholeheartedly stand in solidarity with the people of #Gaza and #Israel, united against these forces of terror.
*Note: btw ..The courageous comments in the video are made by an Egyptian journalist, speaking out boldly from within Egypt.

@Etsy I escalated a case for review 11 days ago and haven’t heard back a single peep, despite seller sending me a faulty and unfinished item. Can you please let me know when case will be resolved?
Thank you @michelletandler@micsolana for hosting the amazing Future of SF chat today on @joinClubhouse and to @chesaboudin for engaging in the conversation. While there are many difficult issues to be resolved in SF, it starts with dialogues like this.
Thrillled to share the news of our investment in @StacklineHQ! It’s quite incredible what the team has accomplished to date, and can’t wait for the journey ahead! #ecommerce https://t.co/49kpwZ0ss7
@saks I was supposed to get a refund a month ago on items that you can’t locate in your warehouse, and you’re still telling me it’s going to be another 10-14 business days to get a refund? Come on.
