It’s a huge sentimental favorite for aged hippies and queers. (I might possibly be in one or more of those categories.) But that’s because it’s an accurate slice-of-life portrayal of the texture of SF living.

Housing and rent and landlords are a pervasive theme. It’s a series of nine novels running mid-70s to the present, so one might be able to read it as diachronic cultural history. Bearing in mind, of course, that it is fiction.

Ah, I didn’t understand from your original tweet that this was a specific organization, rather than “people who dwell there.”

Hmm, yes, I see. Sorry I missed your point entirely. I have to admit to having mixed feelings myself, partly based on sentimental memories of SF in the mid-80s when I was first there. http://www.thd.org/about pic.twitter.com/lC54kfLnID

Yes. I’m on your side, but do feel the tug in the other direction as well.

That’s really interesting! It makes sense, and I’m pretty sure I’ve seen examples, but I hadn’t thought of it quite like that. I’ll look out for it!
