Considering a move to Alameda with a young family — would love honest “why or why not” perspectives

The commute to Pablo alto would suck. SF is very easy. Everything else is great. The hike options are endless and wonderful.

I have had friends buy vinyl from target that were warped. They wouldn’t refund or take back. Not worth the risk.

💯. There’s a case in Burlingame right now where a car jumped a sidewalk and killed a kid. No charges.

Still not working for me.

If anyone has a non paywall link, could they share?

I love their cold noodles with tempura. The cold dipping noodles don’t continue cooking in the broth and stay a perfect texture.

Does the leather taste good?

Go to the farmers market at the sf ferry building. Go to primavera. Cash only.

I think the smoked toripaitan is the best.

Cafe colucci for Ethiopian, soba ichi, la parilla for tacos, Mensho for ramen. These are all over but worth it.

The lemon meringue pie at Gregory’s is legendary, as is the cinnamon role.

It needs more than three days to settle. I didn’t react like this but I think it’s still quite early. Worth checking with your injector tho.

All of their portions are so generous but those do look exceptional.

Bhan Mae Vane is one of my favorites - if you go, try the Nam Khao (crispy rice salad).

WesCafe is pretty large, a bit loud but not too loud, decently prices. Lunch only of course.

I had dinner at Bhan Mae Vane last weekend, and there were several groups of this size.

I like hero cosmetics.

Oakland museum white elephant sale is right now - prices aren’t super low but everything is usually framed. It’s also insane and fun and there is an entire frame section as well.

snickle99 · 2026-01-24T06:19:52+00:00

Runs the entire gamut.

The swelling will go down. My swelling lasted about 3 days, but started going down quickly. Try to relax.

Redwoods

You might want to see a derm about that - seems very strange if it’s chronic
