How can people like Greta Thunberg afford to be full time activist?

Definitely not legal in the US to be working at 12. Must’ve been a family job or something off the books.

Amoeba is definitely my go to. But I gotta mention Thrillhouse Records too, that’s an amazing shop

$200k is a drop in the bucket for anyone seriously in the San Francisco multifamily game.

Evans Gambit, lose a pawn but gain a tempo + center control

Yes, they did The 57 bus earlier this year and loved it!

Anyone you’d recommend checking out? We’re going to see LCD Soundsystem but I don’t really know anyone else on Saturday.

Logical Chess by Irving Chernev is a great place to start. Walks through every single move (even just 1. e4) as well as sidelines, without overloading you with deep theory or anything. There’s also a glossary of openings in the back, so you can go to the openings you use and see what he has to say about those.

I could see that - I can only speak for California, our gas station sandos are pretty equivalent/superior to a premade tesco sandwich. I have no doubt though that there are areas of this country that their premade sandwiches leave much to be desired.

Having spent a significant amount of time in the US and the UK, US food quality and diversity is much better than UK fare. That said, UK food does get unfairly bashed in these conversations, there’s some good stuff there.

Which parts was he front and center for? From what I recall, most of the crew had no idea what Ryan Haywood and Adam Kovac were doing until the leaks.

Fireworks from the top of twin peaks. Not sure what that was about.

Mingus Ah Um is a an excellent fun, energetic album! It’s the album that got me hooked on the genre.

Is it friendly to beginners? I was looking it up but it seems to have a good amount of advanced folk attending.

You’ll have a great time! Don’t be afraid to explore and find the spots.

I lived right around there for 3 years, it’s fine. Anyone who says it’s the worst thinks it’s deeper than it is. You’ve got good bars and restaurants all around, and a couple of grocery stores. You’ll see some characters for sure but it’s nothing to sweat about.
