@Zonal_Marking They had only 2 shots on target today, per match stats? A decent team for sure, uber confident in possession and greater than sum of their parts, but better finishing from 🇫🇷 or 🇩🇪 and they would be going home? Obviously their coach is fantastic.

@AdamSalkie @OllieHolt22 People forget WC & Euros used to be much more exclusive tournaments - in the 70s & 80s only 16 teams qualifed for WC, and only 8 for the Euros - which is why England often failed to qualify at all. Southgate is managing in an era of bloated tournament numbers & diluted quality

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

Feels like @England are sleep walking into another disaster in #euro2024 Germany, just like in ‘88? 3 quick defeats, utter humiliation. That was a top team “on paper” also; Robson, Hoddle, Waddle, Barnes, Lineker, Beardsley…not great at the back…sound familiar? ☹️

vast supplies of synthetics change everything -- was a time when those who used opioids didn't use stimulants, and vice versa. each disdained the other's drug. now the supplies of both are so unrelenting, that both are used together, with disastrous results.

In 2020, San Francisco permanently stopped enforcing traffic laws.

@AventonBikes Will Aventon be investigating this structural deficiency with the rear wheel on the Abound, and potentially issuing a recall notice?

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@AventonBikes it seems there is a major structural issue with the Abound model WRT both rear brake noise & multiple rear wheel spokes breaking off after several months use😬I am not the only owner experiencing these problems - feels like it's not fit for purpose? #Aventon #ebike

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@AventonBikes I already did, and it’s being processed - but I am now without a bike for 2 weeks, and I am not sure if the new wheel will suffer the same problem? As I said, I am trying to make you aware of a structural deficiency with the bike that needs to be taken seriously by Aventon 😕

I talked to a homeless man living in a tent on Eddy St. He moved to San Francisco from Detroit 7 months ago. He was already homeless in Detroit. He came to SF because:

"The weather is good, the drugs are cheap, the city gives you aid, and the police don't bother you."

@bendreyfuss Look we, very reluctantly, took Piers Morgan back, but we draw the line at Oliver, he’s yours to keep.😆

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@YuBalance @awessinger2020 I think the actual intention of the proposal is not to cut costs but to disincentivize opiate tourism? We shouldn’t use precious tax dollars to sponsor addiction, but we should use those dollars for treatment & stabilization.

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@DeanPreston From what I have observed the last coupla years you actually appear to be a trust fund baby who larps as a DSA savior to cynically garner votes and favor in (historically progressive) San Francisco, but the veil has slipped, and it’s become apparent you’re way out of your league.

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@ThePremInside Too early to talk title contenders ?? A long shot, but oh the irony, given Kane’s departure…

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@kane @DeanPreston 🤣🤣🤣 - If there’s an Oscars equivalent for live tweeting/threading local politics, then @kane should be preparing his tuxedo 🏆🤵‍♂️D5 has Ron Burgundy at the helm, it seems…

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@MissionLoco “Make work street smashing” 🤣🤣 - I thought I was seeing a lot of Public Works “activity” all over the city the last few weeks for no apparent reason…

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@TheCoalitionSF @JoelEngardio @RafaelMandelman @mattdorsey It is high time to defund the CoH or replace its leadership entirely. There is simply no excuse for taking so much public $ and making the problem 10x worse. You’re either completely corrupt or completely incompetent, but, to paraphrase Sam Rothstein, “either way you gotta go!”.

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@miss_elenius @Cruise You should probably update your primary tweet here; it appears you have probably misrepresented the facts and, it turns out, the AV may have been the innocent party here. I know you have an axe to grind, but rushing to tweei w/o verification is irresponsible “journalism”, no?

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@darenreifs …and yet the federal judiciary tells SF we cannot legally disperse street encampments because we don’t have sufficient shelter space in the city 🤬😳🤦‍♂️

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@DeanPreston @SF_DPH State sponsored opium dens on the taxpayer’s dime? No thanks. “Wellness Hub” is a most disingenuous euphemism. Listen to your constituents; we want “Treatment Hubs”, not boundless enablement.

[Tom Motley @tom_motley]

@TheMarinaTimes @SFDAOffice @BrookeJenkinsSF That was my interpretation, also. Let’s wait & see - in other news, what ever became of that alleged DUI in the Presido cyclist fatality a couple of months ago? The feds have been very quiet…
