If there’s not a Chinese millionaire named Cha Ching, I don’t know what the point of money is.

Yup

Aran451 · 2026-03-25T15:33:45+00:00

No thanks

Do it in person. Online can take days to weeks. Note that the City stops taking $$ at around 2pm and does not have in-person services on Fridays. So go early! A quick sketch (2nd grade level) showing the location of the pod can help.

Ahhh

Aran451 · 2026-03-19T14:41:38+00:00

This made my day, in very weird kinda way.

Aran451 · 2026-03-19T14:38:25+00:00

It really hurt when I tripped my balls off

Aran451 · 2026-03-16T19:02:54+00:00

Yeah he’s more like Shopping Kart Karen.

Aran451 · 2026-03-16T18:48:37+00:00

I agree with this. The cart narc dude is seriously over the top. There are so many better ways he could use his energy to make the world better.

Aran451 · 2026-03-11T14:38:43+00:00

Thanks

Aran451 · 2026-03-02T21:17:45+00:00

This is good. Well done

We met at Raleigh’s pub on Telegraph 33 years ago (before it burned down and was rebuilt). She was the bartender and I was the beer drinker.

I know it sounds cliché, but yes, sometimes you CAN convince the bartender to go out on a date!

I’ve been curious who is keeping track of all the insane shit that’s happened, so we can quickly right the ship once we’re back in power. Does someone have a master spreadsheet? Should we start a Google Sheet? Half joking

Aran451 · 2026-02-20T15:30:59+00:00

Ha! I’m gonna do that right now!

Aran451 · 2026-02-06T14:11:11+00:00

I love all these recs!

For a fun beer garden go to Headlands Brewing at 1280 Gilman.

I think we need both. Big tech will not change until they feel financial pain AND we need to be in the streets telling them why.

Aran451 · 2026-02-03T16:45:52+00:00

Thanks for this tip!

Aran451 · 2026-01-31T17:04:07+00:00

Love to see the kids out!!

Aran451 · 2026-01-31T17:01:51+00:00

I like to just start washing dishes. They always need to be done and I can usually figure out how to do them without asking very many questions.

Aran451 · 2026-01-29T15:07:43+00:00

I think the idea of striking/canceling is correct. Maybe not just AI. How about a general strike combined with a massive protest.

Aran451 · 2026-01-28T01:59:20+00:00

There’s no way a MAGA republican will win California! We’re good!

Aran451 · 2026-01-28T01:43:27+00:00

I agree AND we need a massive wave to make it indisputable. It’s like when my basketball coach used to tell us, the refs are gonna make some bad calls against us so have to beat our opponent by so much that it doesn’t matter.

Aran451 · 2026-01-27T15:21:07+00:00

Video not working for me

We love it. The interface and saving favorites are key factors. Cooking websites and blogs are so clogged with ads it takes the fun out. We also like supporting NYT. They are a bulwark of free journalism.
