Why doesn't the Chronicle mention of how much the striking musicians earn? they get paid quite well; roughly the same as SF's firefighters. Base section player $118,000–$124,000 for a 24-week season, minimum guarantee $124,055.95. Weekly base rate of $3,888 is among the highest in the U.S. - and it all goes up from there. sfchronicle.com/entertainmen… via @sfchronicle

a muni employee proudly told me the bus shelter glass is free because clear channel replaces it because they earn money running ads on and pay muni so i asked why muni took a pay cut on the ads in 2022 and he said so clear channel could replace more glass so i said it sounds like muni is paying a billboard company in billboards to feed glass to crazy people with hammers and then he started crying
Smashed bus shelter glass this morning in the Mission

Ariana Grande IS going to die if no one intervenes. And no, it’s not anti-women or body shaming to say so. This conversation is insane, choice feminists are insane. She’s sick, she’s not in her right mind. She needs help, and she needs to be stopped from harming other girls with her example right now. Anyone enabling this or helping to promote it is evil. Full stop. Without public shaming, the industry won’t intervene, her family won’t intervene. They’re all collecting checks as she melts away, and they’ll likely make more if she dies.

Got approached by two park rangers in full gear today for teaching tennis to my own children. Empty park, 3:15pm on a Thursday. No permit, $192 fine. Unless you can prove the students came out of you. I asked my kids to confirm I’m their dad. Somewhere in San Francisco an actual crime is happening, but at least the forehand situation is under control. Not a great use of city resources. But that’s just my opinion. 🤷🏻‍♂️🎾

SF is lowering speed limits near schools, and the Chronicle asked Waymo if they would comply, even though its cars follow laws by design. Meanwhile, Uber and Lyft can monitor speeding by their drivers and choose not to. Why didn’t the Chronicle ask them? sfchronicle.com/sf/article/s…

Is “mental health crisis” the new excuse for city officials? They’re making six figures and when they go out on leave keep that pay. @jackiefielder_ also went out on mental health leave after allegedly committing a crime, but was well enough to join a protest at SFO.

Today I learned that @SFMTA_Muni, @MTA, and @SFBART all have ~20x - 70x more staffing costs on a per rider trip basis than Tokyo's Metro system. US public transit is a scam that exists to employ politically desirable populations in exchange for votes.

CHP INVESTIGATED SAN LEANDRO POLICE CHIEF FOR HIT & RUN — I look into why she hasn’t been charged. The attorney for the SLPD officers’ association says it’s preferential treatment, and an internal affairs sergeant accuses the chief of a coverup. Watch here: abc7news.com/18818829/

The tax-funded San Francisco Arts Commission @SFAC won’t fix the statue of Ulysses S Grant, who unconditionally beat the Confederacy, bc it’s not “equitable” that he’s white—but they did put up a statue of @GavinNewsom as he was putting the state in deficit over massive fraud.
Flashback to when the mob in San Francisco took down the statue of Ulysses S Grant, the Union general who won the civil war and freed the slaves.

A couple weeks ago, I came home and my wife, Silvia, said something I almost couldn’t believe.   She looked at me and she said, “I think our state needs you.” Because she believed I could help our kids. Help San José. And help California.   And if you know anything about Silvia — when she talks, you listen.   So I’m running for Governor of California — because we can do better.   I know we can, because we’re proving it in San Jose. We’ve reduced unsheltered homelessness by nearly 1/3rd after a decade of growth. We were rated the safest big city in America last year for the first time in over 20 years. We’re the only city to have solved 100% of homicides nearly 4 years running. And we’re taking on affordability with urgency and honesty — unlocking thousands of housing units in the past couple years.  We need to stand up for our rights, for our freedoms and for our neighbors. We need to use the tools we have at hand to protect our democracy. One tool is the law. The other tool is our results. We have to use both. That’s how we fix California. We don’t just need to be against something. We need to be for something — a government that proves it can solve problems for working people again. And before we ask Californians to give more, we owe them proof that their government can do better.   So I’m running to bring focus back to government. To give cities the tools they need to succeed. To show that the best resistance to division is results.   And to prove that California can work again — for everyone.   That’s why I’m running.   And that’s the future Silvia and I are fighting for. mahanforcalifornia.com/

It’s actually even crazier: the guy already had six (6) felonies when San Francisco public school district hired him, and had been released by progressive judges.

Residents overwhelmingly passed Prop 36 — but you wouldn’t know it if you looked at our streets today. Rather than carry out the will of the voters, Sacramento has refused to fund the measure, effectively setting it up to fail. That’s not what the people voted for — and it’s not a decision lawmakers should get to make after the fact. When voters approve a measure, implementation isn’t optional. Budgets are a reflection of our values. And if we’re not willing to prioritize public safety, treatment, and accountability with real dollars, then we’re choosing dysfunction over results.

Why does @sfgov subsidize meth pipes next to a playground?
🎥January 07 2025 12:15pm The City and County of San Francisco gives this Harm Reduction Agency a permit once a week to Come to this Park and Issue Harm Reduction Supplies and give Massages while kids are actively playing in the background, and people are using drugs at the front entrance with their issued Harm Reduction supplies

Since people are (rightfully) upset by Minnesota sending $1B to scammers, it’s a good time to remember that @sfgov sends almost double that to unaudited NGOs who are routinely caught embezzling the funds. Our deficit is entirely from @sfgov funding scammers.

Brilliant. Weiner says “women & cis women”. So the male women are now the actual women? Chairman right at the end: “things were going so smoothly” - until the uppity woman stood up for her rights. They should just shut up & let entitled men take all our stuff, right?
Had a chance to have a conversation with Senator Weiner. It was an honest one. I am hopeful that this is the first of many conversations we will have regarding women’s safety . Senator Weiner said he likes working with fresh young people and that he is open to ideas. And I’ve got plenty Scott! ❤️

Maybe @GavinNewsom and his comms lead @iGardon genuinely had no idea his chief of staff was a federal criminal. But issuing a glowing reference after his office verified the felony fraud is malicious coverup.

Anyone else notice how he said “women and cis women”…. ? 😳He’s making it abundantly clear that now men are the women and real women must take the new ideological name. His priority is the men in women’s locker rooms and prisons and sports. @listen2tish
