It’s always about the rent.
Rising rent is causing the dim sum and Sichuan restaurant that has been in the Castro for almost 15 years to close. 📝: Madeline Taub sfstandard.com/2026/10/06/ma…

Older DSA members who left DSA over Palestine should take responsibility for their failure to support Palestinian rights. You were lazy and sloppy, and you just ignored what Israel was doing. You were morally corrupt.

And they’ve been really silent since they were called out. Really silent. You wish they’d condemn the genocide, but nah.

John would be impressed at how well I did choosing Hardly Strictly acts. Next year I research in advance.

Was reading widow stories this morning about friends who never came through when asked for help. I luckily didn’t have that, although I mostly wanted to be alone. I heard from one person that there was much discussion about what help I might need. Lucky me.

I’ll listen to Hardly Strictly, even though it’s nothing like it was with John. He brought such joy to the whole experience.
