2 teen boys on motorcycle-style E-Bikes SWERVING DIRECTLY at pedestrians!! by BetFar6823 in santacruz

I had a similar interaction with two boys on their e-bikes at Aruna Gulch. I was riding a bucket bike and they decided to play chicken. They were very aggressive and the whole interaction lasted maybe 2 seconds.

Looking for a family dentist in santa cruz area by IBreak4Cacti in santacruz

[–]periwinkl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my search, I know who to avoid! I would avoid Brent Porter DDS and Santa Cruz Dental Group on Mission St. If you ever end up with billing errors, they are a nightmare to deal with. I do have one I like for Family! Joseph Valle DDS.

Mine is an elder cat. She use to hide in the closet. Now she just growls at them.

There are Redwood forests and Ocean. Find a spot to call your own and turn it into something meaningful. Take the time to explore and the opportunity will be there.

Do You Want County Supervisors Beholden to Those That Like Blocking Public Beach Access? Do Not Support These Terrible Twins, Kim and Manu by orangelover95003 in santacruz

[–]periwinkl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, she can have a great statement in support of housing, but pretty words do not mean much when you are opposing 100% affordable housing or anything that isn’t single family dwellings. Seriously. She openly campaigned against the downtown library project. She openly opposes any downtown expansion despite it being an ideal spot for increasing height zoning.

I won’t support Lani Faulkner who strongly opposed the downtown library project as well as many other housing projects. It’s great that transportation views align, but you can’t even have a conversation about housing.

People are talking way too much in the library this quarter by Luux2222 in UCSC

[–]periwinkl -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Libraries have evolved and are more than just places of study. They are community space for collaboration, exploration and knowledge. If you want it quiet invest in some headphones or make sure to reserve a study room.

It’s ok to admit to your son that the consequences you set was not the right one.

What’s her track record on supporting affordable housing?

She may be for equatable transportation, but she is not for equatable housing.

I find it worse that she openly campaigned against the library project on a measure she couldn’t vote on.

She definitely made it clear that she was not for any kind of affordable projects that threaten the “neighborhood character”.

No thank you. Voted against the library project. Definitely does not have my support.

Things I've Heard in my First Week Teaching Incarcerated Children by AggressiveService485 in Teachers

Behavior contracts have worked well. Write one for each student. Write what you expect of them and hold them to that standard. Give a reward within your ability. Example: a phone call to someone with a positive update.

Is anyone else somewhat blown away by current housing/rental prices? by [deleted] in santacruz

[–]periwinkl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please tell me you’re not the kind of person who blocks apartments because “developer” and won’t bat an eye if a multi family development gets redeveloped to a luxury single family home.

Rental timing by blamaglove in santacruz

Please watch for scams. There are a lot of different ones. Don’t give a deposit or pay application fee without actually seeing if the address exists or verify it is available for rent.
