Alameda County released 140 November precinct election results and i mapped it up on this little website. Pretty self explanatory. Select an election, click the precinct, see the results. Its the first round of RCV only. darrellowensrcd.github.io/infoTransit/ac

Dunno what the confusion's all about. Its the worldwide, centuries old phenomenon of older men selecting women younger than them and young women selecting men older than them. Logically, young men and old women have the highest single rates. Duh.

Its always these hyper SF/NYC centric publications like: heres the latest tech ceo who figured out we need housing. Vs a shelterforce piece that starts out like: heres a single mom as part of portland yimby who thinks duplexes will help her family.

Im also bored w/ journos only talking to fellow yuppies in NYC or SF and rather than leaving their city center bubbles and interview yimbys who arent loaded SWEs. Its ironic that Shelterforce, which is yimby critical, interviews average yimbys more than pro-yimby blogs do

Damn how did Berkeley survive not letting cars drive up and park literally right in front of Sather Gate anymore.

I dont know why so many people on Twitter are challenged by the idea that consenting adults are allowed to do things romantically and sexually. Is it because they live at home and think their parents rules about who they bring over are everyone's?

Its taking the sheriff so long to get here jebus. But im truly appreciative of transit workers calming dealing with this.

I ordered her an uber while we wait. Kinda of a complicated issue between a very poor person needing a free ride but also an asshole who is berating the driver's race and now has the bus against him.

Now I'm stuck on the bus waiting for a police officer to deal with a Mexican guy who's standing in the door telling black people we need to go pick cotton and that he should be allowed to ride for free to the court. A woman is breaking down crying that she'll miss her father.

One of the reasons i admit im becoming a car guy is that while physically rewarding lugging on foot for 15 mins a 48x48 piece of plywood and then putting it on a bus to travel 3 cities to get to a home depot to cut it aint great.

What it's Like When Ron DeSantis Takes Over Your College

The popularity of private liberal colleges is, ironically, a market function. the GOP has now invoked the state to try and force the market to produce right wing content. It won't work. Students will just stop attending Florida colleges and they will fail.

vice.com

Students at Florida’s tiny New College are alarmed by Gov. Ron DeSantis’ hostile takeover—and worry who his next targets will be.

This Bay Area county's population is shrinking the fastest. Here's why

There are some left wing thoughts that are not popular for market demand, such as ethnic studies which has to fight for funding, but liberal leanings in colleges is a market function (its popular that kids want it and parents pay for it, useful in skills & usually correct).

People dont want to pay for school to learn basic 3rd grade tier indoctrination and nationalist thought. Theres no market demand for that or those skills.

The right is fundamentally anti education. Voters without college education vote Republican. Not because colleges make ppl liberal, but because the left tends to be more thoughtful. Like every fascist take over, the right wing take over of colleges is about tanking colleges.

I still think the Golden Gate Bridge was probably the bay's biggest boondoggle.

Marin added 11 jobs for every 1 home in the last decade. Now the giant retirement community cant hire enough people to keep the county's economy running well. So be it.
