Why is the app for this site still so terrible? I am constantly getting logged out on my phone to the point where I'm considering just being done with it

IDK maybe walk to school with your kids

Cuz it's Hershey's

My biggest piece of food advice is to never buy Cadbury's chocolate that is labeled for sale in the US

Mitt Romney confirmed that he won’t launch a third bid for president in 2028 — and argued that octogenarians should sit this one out. “I basically think people who are 80 and above really should not be running the world or running the country”

They NYT article has good graphics explaining the extent of the addition to the failing tower in Midtown which better explain the source of the problems.... www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Yes! So many comply in advance even when there’s no design review

on a recent trip to Cincinnati I noticed this fine bldg in Covington: simple ground floor, two main façade planes w/ expressed piers, clean fenestration w/ simple sills, tripartite scheme w/ simple stringcoursing, & a grand but restrained cavetto cornice - would be cool if planners allowed this

Once más???

This an official Vatican photograph of Leo at Lampedusa, Italy - one of the world’s heaviest migrant sites - where he went this morning to pray for migrants who died at sea. This is after turning down the offer to come to the United States.

This new Seiko Star Time watch Seiko made for Shohei Ohtani counts up to 1 million hours on concentric discs... It's also beautiful. www.seikowatches.com/us-en/news/2...

to be surprised by this is to have never, ever spent July in San Francisco.

guys it's a lot harder to avoid being one-or-two-degrees-of-separation from some sort of illegal corruption as mayor of NYC than as mayor of south bend indiana. (not because south bend is some model of good governance its just 1/100th the size) bsky.app/profile/poku...

all rise for the great lakes republic's national anthem

IDK there's something really funny about event planners not planning for forecasted weather that was reasonably accurate despite the fact that this government has gutted the National Weather Service in an attempt to privatize weather forecasting.

A pretty good encapsulation of what the 4th of July represents for the Black American.

Went to the running store to pick up new shoes yesterday and signed up for a 5k on a whim and it's this morning. I wish I had taken it easy it on yesterday's run now!

I'm not saying it's cause and effect, but I'm also not not saying it. Either way, the manufacturing revival never came.

it would be entirely defensible - politically and doctrinally - based on what happened today for Leo to say that EVERYONE who attended or participated in the consecration of heretical bishops should get the boot. they were there because they enthusiastically support the bishops’ heretical beliefs!

Hey, dumbass: Everett, Washington is the exclusive home of the Boeing 747. Every single 747 ever made, including the 747-8 model gifted by Qatar, was assembled here. So yes, the US can, and DID, build a plane like this - including this one. Nice to see the "president" shit on American Manufacturing

Love this 2019 article in @thefrisc.bsky.social about Strawberry Hill in Golden Gate Park, with a focus on lead gardener Andy Stone. I had a long chat with Andy this morning and the dedication he and other gardeners have to the spaces they tend is very impressive. thefrisc.com/golden-gate-...

That dime in the bucket is the pass of the century. I mean that's already hard enough to throwing a football, this mf did it with his feet. Absolutely incredible.

Absolutely mind-blowing that people are still talking about Hillary vs Bernie in 2026

Don't print lies in the newspaper

Many public employees in California will not even let you buy them a coffee because they are afraid of being accused of corruption

Removing traffic lanes to create wider sidewalks in retail districts (most of these sidewalks were shrunken for cars in the 20th c.)

i feel like the distinction between "Commercial / Retail" vs "Office" is antiquated esp in post office era like i'm a Grand Unified Theory of Torts / Contracts guy, Commercial is a spectrum and should have two categories, Commercial (Polluting / Externalities) and Commercial (Non-Externalities)

The cat is out of the bag, we've been working on the design of a gut remodel of this building for 2 years. This only scrapes the surface sfyimby.com/2026/06/reno...

Just before market open, very nice

it's very funny how much the American right hates "postmodern" architecture while constantly, accidentally, reproducing it.

i discourse about how i am an out of touch “black capitalist” has befun and there is nothing i can do about that. but i can make my meaning clear. if your concern is new housing will spur displacement, then one way to avoid that is to put the new, expensive stuff next to the old expensive stuff.

this is a profound misreading of what i said here. which is that if you want to build new housing WITHOUT gentrification, you build it in places where rich people already live while providing amenities in places where low-income people live

A cool thing I spotted today: an electric cargo bike available for rental as part of the Montreal public transport system. A mid-drive motor and only $35 for a full day rental or $95 for an annual membership!

Absolutely bonkers that supposedly pro-housing politician is using a VERY questionable interpretation of state law (the Marina district of San Francisco doesn't qualify as an urban site) to try to block a large housing project proposed in his neighborhood www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/m...

I guess it really was cheaper back when I moved here in 1890 www.sfchronicle.com/realestate/a...

Did anyone else get an earthquake alert? The earthquake didn't show on the usgs site

Trump pardoned people who literally smeared shit on the capitol walls

"Sinclair said, the closure of a University of California, San Francisco research center and the JFK Drive shutdown brought fewer Richmond District residents to the Sunset." - he opened the shop a YEAR AFTER JFK DRIVE WAS CLOSED TO CARS missionlocal.org/2026/06/sf-s...

I'm in favor of changing ceiling height requirements for legalizing apartments but this article is wrong. This isn't some local amendment that's the issue. She has a 3 unit building that wouldn't fall under the residential code even if SF had adopted it: www.sfchronicle.com/personal-fin...

This is not a local code requirement, this is the California Building Code. San Francisco never adopted the IRC.

All the people who were pushing for the building code freeze in California are looking dumber by the minute
