Photo taken by a friend who found herself suddenly swept into the Paris riots. A man sits in disbelief in a sneaker store that's looted and destroyed.
Started re-watching the old @HBO series "Years and Years." Wow. It's the story of how an ordinary family is impacted by near future world events (well, near future back then). It's uncanny in its predictions of today. Did creators have a time machine?

Sad day. We just did our last morning coffee ritual at the @peetscoffee in SF's Castro. Why the fuss over a chain cafe? It's a genuine loss for the neighborhood..medium.com/@scottjames/castr… – at San Francisco, CA

Muni meltdown. Trains not running. No explanation. Big event night in the city. Concertgoers beware. @SFMTA_Muni @bensonboone
🍾 Congrats to veteran journalist Pamela Watts for her @PBS story hitting more than ONE MILLION views. It's the story of a secret apartment illegally built in a busy shopping mall, and people lived there for years.

Craziest story by my friend Pamela Watts of RI PBS. Artists secretly lived inside an open active shopping mall...for years! Jesse Adam Eisenberg is making a movie about it.

Fun piece by @jessemckinley on young MAGAs who call themselves "sexy." But what struck me is how many in the piece refused to give their names. I can't think of a story where any of other Gen Z group demanded anonymity.

Trans people and queer people of color took the first punches and threw the first punches in the fight for queer rights. Now they are erased from history?
