San Diego soccer having a nice night so far, put together 8-0 Wave securing a playoff spot

1) still wouldn’t be surprised to see this turn out “psyche! Why are you hitting yourself?” 2) they’re making CA b-roll 3) many will misattribute blame 2) but man, if this goes through w live fire… to explain for the politically disengaged in SoCal whaddya mean “no kings?”, this is a good one

But seriously, Newsom should step in.

Possibly contrarian urbanist take. 1) delivery bots are good (esp b2b) 1b) robotaxis are bad 2) bots in bike lanes are meh 2b) but a real opportunity (esp in suburbs)

Nemik’s Manifesto wasn’t written until after shooting wrapped on Andor season 1—Alex Lawthor read it in voiceover. The actors didn’t know it until later. In a way the nascent rebellion learned what it was fighting for about the same time as we did.

Got Covid for the first time. Will probably miss No Kings. 😠 Everyone please go extra in my place.

common sense rules of the internet: 1. never do an interview with @ichotiner.bsky.social 2. never bet with @jdcmedlock.bsky.social 3. never attempt to dunk on @dieworkwear.bsky.social

Don't miss out on the San Diego celebration of SB 79 tomorrow, 6-8 pm at Coronado Brewing off Morena!

Has San Diego maybe been less bad re corridor zoning? Any idea?

This is true and, well, I don’t understand the confident focus on RTOR.

Boba is full of lead.

I agree that it’s deontologically bad to be a jerk to an LLM, but I also want them to stop pretending to be human. I don’t even like it when the credit card machine at the parking lot tells me to have a nice day. Let’s keep this professional, huh?

I do think LAT is less bad

It wasn't a major theme for you in the piece, but I do think it's important. Most people were materially better off (their wages could buy more stuff) in 2024 than in 2019. Yet in 2019, the standard line was the economy is strong, in 2024 the line was "people are hurting."

No one wants or needs Trump to send National Guard here. Kudos at last to the business community for being clear about this and how bad and counterproductive it would be. www.chicagobusiness.com/politics/chi...

So sad I missed this, so happy it happened.

We need your help to keep pressure on CalPERS and CalSTRS to sell their $4B in Tesla stock. CalPERS board has requested staff report on risk of continued investment in Tesla! This is progress, but not final decision. Tell CalPERS and CalSTRS to sell Tesla NOW: actionnetwork.org/letters/emai...

Help welcome @nerd4cities.bsky.social to San Diego - join us for a group ride this Sunday!

I meant to recommend this episode of Aboard Podcast which ran through the role of crypto in the second half. Also made the fair point how much west coast grievance has played into the SV elite freakout. aboard.com/podcast/tech...

😍 for the #maintainers crowd among us 📚📜

A grotesquery of false equivalence. Trump officials should/will be prosecuted because of their crimes, not because Trump established the precedent of prosecuting people because of their politics. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/28/u...

How hard is it to say “invading an American city with the US military is treason and the second we have power we will prosecute anyone who gave or obeyed an illegal order”

List 3 things you can talk about for 3 hours with no prep. 1. Public library stuff (but you should listen to @librarian.bsky.social first) 2. San Diego 3. sorry, anything else I’m just rambling after 20 minutes

Californians! We're not out of the woods yet! If you were excited about the legislature's historic passage of SB 79 last week, please take 30 seconds to call and email the governor requesting his signature. (And get five friends to do the same!) actionnetwork.org/letters/sign...

Tapping the sign that says that if you make decisions for a facility anywhere, you are within your rights and mission to v-chip Fox.

Libraries, this can happen to us in clear violation of our own policies and practice. The second-best time to stop using Meta as an official library channel is now.

San Diegans needing a little extra encouragement, nab a free pass via the library here: sandiego.discoverandgo.net

U-turn, reverse, reverse!

y'know what, never mind, I'm good www.bbc.com/news/article...

*holds gun to readers, society* Good morning!

The modern Trump movement believes that a bad person—defined as someone they do not like—has no rights. For someone on the left to say, “I think Charlie Kirk should not have been shot; I also do not think he is worthy of honor,” is, to the right, a contradiction in terms.

Just because: the exterior photo of Family Mart halfway in? Wait... I could swear I know exactly that one! *checks* Ha! Yes, yes it is. maps.app.goo.gl/kbiohW3h8Vmr...

THIS JUST IN: #Canada's government is going ahead with Alto, a high-speed rail line between #Quebec City and #Toronto. Trains to reach speeds of up to 300 kilometres (186 mph) per hour. 20 million people, half Canada's population, live in this corridor.

This graph says it all. Induced demand is real, and the reverse is also true: if we don't expand highway capacity, people make choices other than sitting in worsening traffic jams. $10B for transit instead, please.

When you see your library’s gear on The Paper. (great show, btw!)

The savvy take that Fox just gives its viewers what they want is wrong.

Congrats @andykeatts.bsky.social big things coming Times of SD

The hotel and airline bankrolled challenge to the Olympic wage *did not qualify* for the ballot according to the LA County Registrar. This means the city’s Olympic wage ordinance , $25/hour beginning this year and $30/hour by 2028, goes into effect for tourism workers immediately

As I have been saying a lot lately, even the "bad weather" parts of California (the Central Valley, the Trans-Sierra Northeast) have a supremely delightful climate by US standards.

Dimming of the US as a haven, and the relative ease of life in Tokyo.

I like to express my displeasure by retiring to the sitting room and gazing silently out the window whilst in the drawing room sister entertains the guests on the pianoforte

Trump putting his name on projects from Biden’s infrastructure bill he didn’t support is actually crazy

1) This is just a fantastic campaign ad. 2) Using Grandpa Simpson's "Tied an Onion to My Belt" rant as the fake Ackman tweet is <Chef's Kiss>

True too for the 28 and HTH. Some surge frequency maybe and please? Re Park Bl., I'm on the side of the bus lanes but not the first to suggest that on a lot of Park the lanes are low payoff, traffic is low. Would trade for Broadway, Harbor, Rosecrans, Garnet, Mira Mesa Bl...
