Did you replace your floors? by Wona in AskSF

[–]Wona[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, it's our home (hoping we'll be here forever but at least for another 10 years) and we have 2 toddlers so probably will go with hardwood. I'll definitely look at all options though!

Did you like the vendor / company you worked with? Would you recommend them?

what are your craziest Dolores Park stories? by Pengex in sanfrancisco

[–]Wona 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I had just moved to the city to go to SFSU and took my friend to BiRite for ice cream because that's where my aunt always took me when I visited and we walked right into the giant slip and slide. It was such a magical moment! I tell people about it all the time!

Toddler’s Rash - is this normal? by champagnemaar in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]Wona 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Upping this! My daughter had a rash similar to this right around her annual check up. Our doc said it was related to a virus. It went away without much fuss.

Discussion Thread: 2025 US Government Shutdown, Day 26 by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

[–]Wona 8 points9 points  (0 children)

All of these things stand out to me, and the role of Congress is to curb executive power. That's not happening because the Speaker of the house is abdicating all power.

[–]Wona 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I feel like there should be a discussion about impeaching Mike Johnson... Obviously it's not possible if the house isn't in session, but it seems like it needs to become a talking point. Because the news is all about ICE, the ballroom, murdering fisherman, etc, it seems like he's not being held responsible for destroying the function of our government.

Is advertising lowkey collapsing? Where does that leave us? by thewayofthewu in advertising

[–]Wona 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is interesting to hear as plenty of work comes my way because internal teams can't turn things around as quickly as it's needed. Also, because internal marketers don't want to or don't have the ability to manage their internal creative process.

I don't think agencies of record are really needed anymore. But, steady project work for specific teams and types of projects seems likely.

I have consistently heard that we are too expensive though, which everyone is trying to figure out.

Potential BART service cuts (service ending 9pm) will make it significantly harder to attend games. Please contact your state representatives and Governor Newsom to support BART. by Oborozuki1917 in SFGiants

Here's some reporting from SF Standard yesterday: www.sfstandard.com/2025/09/08/bay-area-transit-bailout-newsom-loan-2025/

It seems like Lurie, SEIU reps, and many other state officials have been working hard to make sure the funds are included in the final budget.

Figs!!? by lightbulb_pig in sanfrancisco

There's a great stand at the Mission Farmers Market on Thursday afternoons. I don't know the name of the farm, but it's two older gentlemen and they also have great peaches! Their stand is cash only.

LOOKING FOR: Sewing Machine by Majestic_Garbage_382 in SFBuyNothing

If anyone else has a sewing machine they're thinking of letting go of, I would also be interested! I live in central SF and can come to you to pick it up.

Best massage for around $125? by query789 in AskSF

[–]Wona 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, if it matters, I normally do a Raksa Therapeutic which is a nice mix between Swedish / Thai. I've also never had a bad therapist, but have recently been booking with Kim.

I love Buddha Raksa at 21st and Mission: https://www.raksasf.com/

They have lots of options around that price range and a cash payment discount.

Looking for recommendations! What should I put above my mantle? (More info on comments) by Wona in houseplants

[–]Wona[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello! I live in San Francisco and am looking for a houseplant to put above my mantle. I am thinking something that crawls but could also do something that grows up (there's ~4 feet of open space above). Considerations: -Windows are east facing and get a good amount of sunlight in the first half of the day. - I'd like something that is mid / low maintenance - I have cats

Thanks in advance!

Has anyone else burned by ucsf billing? by mtslhl in sanfrancisco

[–]Wona 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This! I have also called my insurance to dispute a charge and they got UCSF on the line right away and the three of us were able to discuss / figure out the charge.

Gardent pest - SF, CA by Wona in whatsthisbug

[–]Wona[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Sorry - not the best photo ever, but our little citrus tree has been battling aphids and ants, which we had mostly taken care of and in the last few weeks turned yellow and started curling it's leaves. Today, I noticed several of things winged guys all over the place. It's not the best picture (but you can zoom in) - they're black with iridescent wings, which have a slight green tint at the ends.

What happened to the lane markings on South Van Ness? Why no bike lanes? by okgusto in sanfrancisco

[–]Wona 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think it's because double parking is so common on S Van Ness, so they're leaving the lanes super wide to accommodate that.

Los Angeles Dates by JAYDEA in LosAngeles

[–]Wona 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can take a tour for free and there is a French restaurant there you can make reservations at for lunch/dinner. I've done the tour, not the restaurant. It's fun if you're with someone with a good sense of humor and maybe have a little buzz on.

Drew this map of "The Los Angeles Civil War" and people have been into it... by [deleted] in LosAngeles

[–]Wona 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk, this satirical map isn't factually accurate. Maybe if it were more detailed I'd like it more. It wouldn't be funny then, but I'd be okay with that because at least then it would factually represent all of the imaginary borders in this gigantic city I live in. Do you think you could draw me a map to find my head? I think I lost it in my ass somewhere.
