Sunday Streets is an important event to many in the Tenderloin. Today's public conversation is about defunding it.

Lithium-ion batteries that aren’t UL-certified can be fire hazards, Fire Chief Crispen said. “People buy [them] off market and then end up in their units, and sometimes people overload their circuit with several of them plugged into one,” he said. www.tlvoice.org/fire-prevent...

SFFD has created a "hoarding task force" to identify the fire hazards and get them cleared out before bad things happen.

A sobering (“RESET”) center opens in April, and new legislation would require lithium-ion batteries sold in SF to meet higher safety standards. It's looking like a lithium-ion battery explosion caused the fire that displaced 68 TL residents in December. www.tlvoice.org/fire-prevent...

This is public safety town hall is happening tomorrow but a conversation about the town hall appears to be happening in our comments... now 👀

The officer who shot Pretti is an eight-year BP veteran.

Kids got stuff to say.

I had a question about ube, so I called my mom. Read what she had to say.

Treasure Island residents are food insecure because of their geographical isolation. Residents are feeding one another through a community garden, a food pantry and someday soon, organizers hope, an urban farm. www.sfpublicpress.org/on-treasure-...

You can find ube in the Philippines. In the Tenderloin? Not so much. www.tlvoice.org/what-groceri...

One artist was initially wary about Hospitality House’s community arts program, due to its location in SF’s Tenderloin. After they tried the program, it “has truly become my creative sanctuary.” www.tlvoice.org/a-permanent-... ... @hospitalityhousesf.bsky.social

Say hello to the Tenderloin Voice, a new indie news outlet that aims to cover the much-maligned neighborhood with a simple principle: Why not ask readers exactly what they want to see? GIFT LINK: sf.gazetteer.co/talk-of-the-...

David Elliott Lewis writes ⇒ The Tenderloin has a pharmacy desert, and that's part of a mounting public health crisis. www.tlvoice.org/i-live-in-a-... @davidelliottlewis.bsky.social is one of our first community contributors! This won't be the last time you see his work.

My favorite thing about starting the TL Voice is getting to share space with community writers and their work. Look at this, it's wonderful: www.tlvoice.org/mine-is-a-co... "I came to this place almost 25 years ago my eyes ablaze with crystal meth a single pair of boots and about 72 t-cells.

Innovative new local media outlet has launched in SF’s Tenderloin. “We share control with our audience over what we publish — something quite unorthodox in the news industry.” Check out The Tenderloin Voice

I’m so amped on the ✨brand new✨ @tlvoice.bsky.social, which launched today! As @laurawenus.bsky.social writes, “the Tenderloin gets talked about a lot, but it rarely gets its say.” The Tenderloin Voice shifts control of the narrative to its residents, and I’m excited to hear what they have to share.

::deep breath:: It's here. The @tlvoice.bsky.social is live. This has been, and will continue to be, such a labor of love. Huge gratitude to all of the people who shared their advice, contacts, reflections, writing, photos, and heart to make this possible.

We're going live TODAY! Follow us!

Latest newsletter: Two exciting updates, and some thoughts on why it’s taking us longer than anticipated to start the countdown to launch (and why we don’t want to rush).

@ifbookspod.bsky.social what I want to know is Where is your GOOD reading list? IF BOOKS COULD THRILL

yessss finally Why do I not just autoload? Because in the last week, I've: - gone to dinner and left my wallet at home - walked out the door with the wrong set of keys - walked home from a place I biked to, forgetting the bike Don't even ask me how many Clipper cards I've gone through.

Editor & Publisher wrote about us! Read it! Thank you so much @di-sly.bsky.social

Excellent episode. And excellent game! I started it yesterday and I'm having trouble putting it down.

@blueprincegame.bsky.social I don't mean this offensively but Blue Prince is a great game to play when you're sad.

My mom’s review of the latest episode of Post Games — now available for $1 (including everything else) on Patreon.com/postgames

Round here, we drink vintage. @esksf.bsky.social

Loved this episode!

One of these days, we'll look back and see that AI LLMs and similar tools were the full realization of a sentiment born in the days of AOL, grown into something misshapen and humanity-devouring: That art, creativity and storytelling are farce. Untrue, of course. www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

This is a level of insight and analysis I haven't found elsewhere. Think the latest gadgets from Valve (gaming company) are just neat? THEY'RE SO MUCH MORE. They're a (good version of a) trojan horse, for Linux, open source, & weakening the walls of closed digital platforms. Apple & MS beware!

Post Games podcast (by @plante.bsky.social ) now has section markers! This is great because I wanted to skip to the Patreon-subscriber section about all this juicy Steam news! www.patreon.com/cw/PostGames
