    Housing is such a trip. I mean NIMBYism is understandable but the mental gymnastics people perform to act as though their opposition to development is anything but pure selfishness are absurd. Yesterday I listened to a bunch of boomers at a bar go on at length about how there is no housing supply crisis in California -there’s plenty of housing, but prices are just too high! (They had just left a town hall about opposing housing in the neighborhood).

    Eh, no. They all suck. It’s a different topic but climate change will radically change the wine industry. Burgundy and Champagne have already begun feeling the pain.

    That guy is a YIMBY organizer who goes to city hall meetings to live tweet NIMBY opposition to California’s recently bolstered housing mandates - that recent thread that went viral happened to be about supportive housing. It’s interesting to see the situation in Austin play out similar to housing fights in CA and NY - namely, the flat out denial of a supply issue in the first place from anti-growth contingents. Edit: but also different as well, as Greg Casar has, from what I’ve seen, been a bit of a YIMBY.

    Great account to follow in the trenches of the housing crisis.

    Those old hippies don’t like outsiders so there’s not much in Bolinas proper (I think Smiley’s is the local watering hole?), but it’s a great base for exploring Point Reyes. I think that’s actually an entry point for Alamere Falls, though I don’t think there will be much water at that time. In the area you’ve got the big Tomales Bay spots like Marshall Store and Hog Island (need reservations for the latter), but Point Reyes Station is also a cool little town to walk around. Like Due West Tavern in Olema as well.

    Apparently it happened before the story blew up, but more to the point what in the living fuck was Siri thinking getting into it?

    This whole shitshow in the past few pages can be summed up by the “Tang” argument in season 2.

    Rich Table is one of the best in the city. More of a special occasion spot for us bc of the tasting menu, need to go soon. If you liked that cooking, their old chef de cuisine opened his own spot, Ernest, which is a little more casual. Radhaus is in Fort Mason (aka Frat Mason), it is kid friendly and is a good spot. Usually on Fridays they have live music and food trucks in the complex but I checked and it doesn’t look like it’s going on right now. If y’all are walking around, recommend checking out the new Francisco Park. Also, the new Presidio tunnel tops have a big playground and usually food trucks/bars on weekends. Parking is pretty easy.
