I love this: @SFGate is hosting a pop-up newsroom in GGP in Sept, where people can talk to staff reporters and editors (and get prom-style portraits taken by the photo team) 🤩 Creative way to build connection with readers sfgate.com/bayarea/article/s…

It’s Fogust in San Francisco, so naturally I spent a week searching for the city’s undisputed foggiest bar. I talked to fog academics, data scientists and even Foggy, SFCFC’s fog mascot, and what I found was all kinds of wholesome. My latest for @SFGate: sfgate.com/food/article/san-…

Seriously. For 1/4 the cost of a single Erewhon smoothie (!!), you can get a glossy, ad-free app — with crosswords and ways to save stories and to listen to stories! — and help keep the lights on for a locally owned media company right here in California.

Google is turning off search. AI is (mostly poorly) suctioning up news and info without links or credit. Influencers are everywhere, and often don't disclose when they're being paid to say what they say. This is a great chance to get real news from actual journalists. For $5.

Yesterday, @SFGate launched a brand new, ad-free app. If you're the sort of person who wants to directly support statewide California journalism (from the beach towns to the national parks), then boy, do I have a great way for you to spend $4.99. sfgate.com/friend/
