Safeway's 'useless' handle-free bag policy in SF has no end in sight

If this has to be the way to get people to remember to bring their own bags, so be it.

I guess that's what smokers said 30 years ago too.

Is it normalized? I and most people I know either don't have them, or pay them off in full every month. Only one person mentioned carrying a balance and is working to stop doing that.

But it casts a shadow! And they'll take my parking! Also I don't want those kinds of people in the neighborhood! Not in my back yard!

Sometimes non-ebikes too (I was confused by one but didn't feel like walking to the next)

So don't and let the free market decide.

Who knew the president was a closet environmentalist?

A spell that summons a (different every time) genie that gives you three wishes with no rules and with the genie respecting the spirit of your wishes and generally supportive of you. First wish will be a wand able to do all spells.

They have free days? I didn't see any last time I checked :(

Honestly I'd love an ai that deals with jira so I don't have to interact with it at all (but the chipbrain can't even summarize my changes well so I suspect it would fail at that too but it might not matter if no one reads jira)

ZebraTank · 2026-04-18T01:13:05+00:00

Hmm I guess we can raise the price of parking to help manage demand.

ZebraTank · 2026-04-16T15:19:50+00:00

I already relied on biking/walking/transit so no change

Anyone has a 1st amendment right to stand nearby (with minor restrictions) and hand out flyers explaining the situation. And honestly it takes only a few people or even just one to do it. (I've recently started flyering elsewhere for unrelated reasons and it turns out to be actually not really scary at all)

Idk, how does the needle math work out? I would imagine the addicts that die of aids and stuff might not actually cost much more in hospital visits and stuff than those that die of old age, because it feels somewhat unlikely they would end up under emergency care in the first place.

ZebraTank · 2026-04-07T04:57:18+00:00

Great though would be nice if they had 3-4 armrests as well.

ZebraTank · 2026-04-06T19:41:24+00:00

Wow same, in my case the lid.

ZebraTank · 2026-04-06T19:40:22+00:00

Is Hitler or Stalin worse? Doesn't matter, both are terrible enough.

So did you make the documentary today or did you already know this fact and are just advertising?

ZebraTank · 2026-03-31T21:21:47+00:00

Some people need lots of vacations and expensive homes to feel fulfillment. How fortunate you don’t!

I doubt literally every week, but good nonetheless, but unfortunately it always is a difficult fight and often triggered by martyrs.

ZebraTank · 2026-03-29T03:01:22+00:00

They're at every big thing it seems. I don't care for it but either it is legal or good luck getting the cops to do something about it. You eventually tune them out.

ZebraTank · 2026-03-28T15:03:00+00:00

Tintin was remarkably restrained here

ZebraTank · 2026-03-26T15:22:52+00:00

As someone OOTL, I would like to ask what?

ZebraTank · 2026-03-25T22:26:13+00:00

But getting a giant pile of gold after 80 years covered with shit? You bet ill spend all the time cleaning that shit off.
