When I was a kid we used to go to the SF Zoo and the Park. I can’t recall the name of that place in the park where there were stuffed animals on display and a gem stone wing. Really cool stuff to see. Haven’t been back in years.

Gotta hit Tommy’s Joynt and check who’s playing at the Fillmore. Park in a garage on Geary not on Fillmore.

Yep I agree, everyone has to see SF.. it's so unique.

I could do Orange County or San Diego gladly...

I love movies that take place in SF bc SF basically is a character in them if that makes sense.

maybe back to gas prices?

how about this seque…google says:

As of April 30, 2026, gas prices in San Francisco are averaging around $6.20 per gallon for regular unleaded, with some stations, such as a Shell at 4th and Bryant Streets, charging over $7 ($7.15) per gallon due to a significant surge driven by, among other things, instability in the Middle East. This is part of a broader, rapid increase across California.

So I was listening to this analyst I always listen to, and he was saying that because California doesn't have a pipeline, gas/oil has to be trucked in, which means gas is only going to go up in the state. Even removing gas taxes wouldn't give much relief, especially in a crunch like this. Fun days ahead.

If anyone actually believes this administration hasn't fucked us by now, it just means they live in an alternate reality. Let me in

Oooof.... I made a few big trips yesterday. went through 1/2 tank.

One thing I noticed. You had a ton of people doing 90+ in the left lane on I90 when gas was cheaper.
Everyones a little more relaxed driving at the speed limit knowing gas is high priced.

Yeah and he was so unqualified that the board and the shareholders let him continue his incompetence as CEO for 15 years until he voluntarily retired and wasn't booted. You don't have to be a pioneer or an inventor to be a capable CEO; in fact, it's frequently the opposite. Many times, creative types are not good leaders.

And of course the billions spent on homelessness which does more to line the pockets of politically aligned groups than anything else.

Enforcement and different laws are hard in Cali. However its not a cake walk, as that's a thin line to get right without overstepping to one extreme or the other, and setting it up for a perfect storm of disastrous consequences.
