I signed up to #PBS Passport and I’m donating $20/month to my local station, KQED. It’s a better investment than subscribing to Paramount Plus, for sure. Consider signing up for a recurring donation to your local station to show your support.
Even better, some employers will match your recurring donations. Get your bosses to support your local station!
Has anyone been to a friends meeting in #SanFrancisco ? I am curious about it and would love to hear first hand experiences. Especially if you’ve brought your kids.

I LOVE THIS.
An underground group calling themselves the San Francisco Bay Area Bench Collective is installing unsanctioned benches at bus stops. The city can’t be bothered to install them, so these folks stepped up and did it.
City officials interviewed by NBC moaned and groaned about who’s gonna clean the benches and what about liability and that makes me love this group even more.

Anyone plugged into immigration work in #SFBA?
I’m straddling my bike on a street corner wondering if there’s a number I should call and report what I’ve seen . I’m in the East Bay 4/4
Just now for the second time in a week I encountered a white van driving slowly through my neighborhood looking out of place. I’ve seen enough Amazon and similar delivery vans to get a sense for what that looks like. The last time there was also a black SUV in close proximity to the white van with what looked like some kind of metallic thing in the car that could be used as a front seat backseat separator as well as a large dog. 1/4 #sfba #ice#usa #maga
There are still seats available to see Susie Eddie Izzard's one-person Hamlet at ACT today and tomorrow, and if you are a fan of Izzard I suggest you go. I did not think she was going to be able to pull it off in the show's first few minutes but it really becomes quite a performance. #sfba #sf #theater
