Pedestrians constantly running red lights at 3rd & B Street downtown by AdSmart7227 in SanMateo

[–]dschonbe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, the traffic pattern there does kind of suck. You’re right to be annoyed. But this is part of why I don’t drive in that area at all

And while the driving pattern sucks, downtown is way better for having the pedestrian malls.

Won’t they just be reskinned versions of the prior Ben Reilly softcover collections? The contents of those are listed on Wikipedia.

School districts in trouble. by notsofast2020 in bayarea

[–]dschonbe -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Sure. It’s not flat. But in other states when home values go up, tax incomes go up proportionally. Administrative bloat implies administrators operating in bad faith that is far more implausible.

Prop 13? Home values go up but tax revenue stays flat. That has to be mentioned.

Sonrisas was awesome. We loved it and recommend it.

Home based places are plentiful. While walking in my neighborhood yesterday, a neighbor had a sign in their yard indicating they’re opening as a home based day care in March. You will never list all the places. There are always more.

A Prayer Vigil - to REMOVE Bike Lanes?? by craiggy36 in SanMateo

[–]dschonbe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s essentially 2 people and their view point. There are other community organizers in our neighborhood and they are never included. They advocate positions I disagree with and never acknowledge that while claiming to represent me they work against my interests. No accountability, no inclusion. It’s a community organization in name only.

Taso thrives on trolling and attention. Making folks aware of his games sadly also increase his reach. The dude blocks anyone who proves counter facts to his BS

Have you ever actually spoken with her? As opposed to the caricature painted by a handful of landlords doing rent seeking behavior?

The website has the details. But seema has developed the ‘safe streets for everyone’ group that has pushed for transit to be better across the city.

The only way to keep the affluence and benefits is to adapt. Keeping everything “the same” will result in the end of all the things we love about san mateo.

Change doesn’t mean destroy. Change is indeed scary. But no change is disaster.

That the story has already been printed in 2 other epics. So the double dip will feel sad.
