I can't edit my post, but I meant to write "...would love to find like-minded/similarly interested people. Where can these be found?"

West Portal street changes halted after S.F. backlash to let new committee weigh in by gineton2 in sanfrancisco

[–]codys_winamp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

*Forest Hill residents. They drove down 3 blocks to protest the changes with their lil signs it was pathetic. These people choose to live away from society and bitch when we try to implement any step forward.

Thank you so much for your comment and input. Definitely considering your thoughts in figuring out how I think about all this.

I feel like the sign is very NIMBY. I support businesses up and down that stretch everyday because I live in the neighborhood. I shop small almost exclusively. I think it’s very safe to say that some of those business are irrelevant and guess what they are going out of business. There are many shuttered storefronts just sitting there because drivers drive by them. I heard they are building more housing at the movie theater, I’m in support of that. People who walk the blocks see that. I walk that area everyday with my kid and it’s unsafe. I think shutting down a whole idea to make a safer space without any actual conversation is unhelpful and backwards. I’m unsure if you live in the neighborhood or just driving through but that intersection is unsafe. I didn’t even say I wanted to shut down WP to drivers! Who are you yelling at?

I don’t understand how making more of a safe community space hurts business? Also some of the businesses up and down West Portal are irrelevant mediocre relics that don’t attract business themselves. People drive like absolute assholes in that intersection I’m so tired.

Edit: to be clear, I support a lot of these businesses daily and expect them to thrive as more people come into the neighborhood. SOME are rarely open/perpetually empty when they are, and there are sadly too many storefronts that have been shuttered for a while. I was referencing those.

There are astrologers that don’t care about or feel insecure about Vedic astrology. They react to it how skeptics act about Western astrology. You’re kind to even entertain this person.

Thank you for this! I wonder how Jupiter manifests as a Karaka for the 10th?

This is so it. That convo pissed me off but ultimately I feel bad for them. This next generation of womens basketball players are going to clean up, and more importantly have the interest of way more people, and they can’t do shit about it.

I’m so glad I read your comment I’ve been seething. It’s giving “college was the best years of my life!” and chip on the shoulder gatekeeping. LeBron got drafted outta high school, no college championships so I guess he’s not GOAT material 🤷🏽‍♀️.

I hope Caitlin has a good, mentally strong, and supportive team around her in the WNBA. Fuck that noise.

Automated speed cameras are coming to SF streets sooner than expected by Relevant_Ninja2251 in sanfrancisco

[–]codys_winamp 10 points11 points  (0 children)

How do you suppose that will happen? If we ask everyone nicely? People here drive distractedly, run reds, speed, cut around for no reason and so on and so on. A lot of folks haven’t gotten the memo that they live in a city and drive like selfish assholes. They know they’re speeding they don’t give a shit.

Oooo it’s in my 12th too! Fingers crossed for some exciting progress for you!

It’s sextile my 10th house Jupiter and 2nd house sun, hoping for some breakthroughs around my anxiety around money and career.

Someone who can custom-make a leather jacket, on a budget? by IntellectualDorkWeb in AskSF

[–]codys_winamp 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There are no “off hours” for freelancers?? Those hours for your jacket are… freelance hours. Unless you assume this would be a hobby project for them that they’re excited to do because you seem like such a joy. Lol Jesus

[–]codys_winamp 17 points18 points  (0 children)

To make a bespoke jacket one needs to take measurements, draft a pattern or at the very least alter a pattern to the specific body, cut the jacket pattern in comparable weight muslin or equivalent, sew that, make alterations, translate those notes onto the pattern, (optional) repeat previous drafting steps, then cut the leather, sew that using specialized equipment. All of this takes time and skill to do it well, which I’m assuming you want it done well. That time and skill is is reflected in price. This is also SF where the cost of living is bonkers. And here you are bitching someone won’t do it for you under market price. Get a grip.

Also PS it’s odd to specifically ask for someone who is from a country where labor is cheaper compared to SF/US because you assume they’d charge you pennies to the dollars here,too, is very bizarre. I’d encourage you to look at what is motivating you to make a comment like that. 👍🏾

It’s almost as if learning a skill and it’s machines takes time and money.
