    I bought back and I’m exploring how to convert it to a volunteer organization. Would you be interested to help make a place for kids to discover passion, learn skills and have a safe place online to share? ✅

  4. says “Hops” which does make sense... I have a hops vine growing a few feet away on a wall... it’s been awhile since I’ve seen a starter.

  6. Garden Twitter, know what this is? Volunteer in my raised bed, leaves smell like sage. We put a lot of compost in here. Could be anything we eat. I’m guessing celery. I worry this is going to be obvious and I should know better.

  7. We have urgent affordability issues. Instead of tackling Prop 13 and zoning density, we have pissed and moaned and virtue signaled to D.C. while inhumane homelessness grows here at home.

  8. I wish California liberals had spent the last three years protesting Trump by using its supermajority to reform housing policies and set an example for compassionate and effective governance.

  9. My wife manufactures maternity clothes there and all of her outstanding orders are suspended. Curious how many industries are impacted.

  11. The Greeks used to survey the path for a new road by putting a hundred kilos on the back of a burro and sending him uphill. They followed the burro with a road. via Annals of the Former World, McPhee, Pg 523.

    A three-fer! 1) adding desperately needed housing units 2) reducing ubiquity of car-centric design in transit city 3) improving seismic stability by walling off that open soft story!! I. Am. Here for it! So many contemporary Bay Area problems addressed with one change.

    Last night I proposed that all the Fairways be replaced with giant Fairway-sized Chase branches, but had an even better concept: food courts, except for bank branches. Lots of seating - great for big groups - and a wide variety of bank branches to choose from

  14. Visiting NYC. I handed the barista my thermos. He took a paper cup, filled it with coffee, poured the coffee in my thermos, crumpled the cup and threw it away. 🤣😭

  15. Adam Newport-Berra – the cinematographer behind Last Black Man in San Francisco – made a short film at Beaver Brook and we premiered it on .

  16. My 5yo asked, “How big is a wolf?” So I Google it... Google’s first result is the option (in browser!) to place a realistic wolf in the room with us so we can walk around it and see for ourselves. Magical. The closest I have felt to a Young Lady’s Illustrated Primer.

  17. This is excellent. Support a local SF beat reporter with $4/mo and get breaking news text messages from him.

  18. Dwell has offices in SF and NY. I will be based in SF and visit NY often. In SF, we work in Jackson Square, which is a new neighborhood for me. I don’t know too many people up here, so please let me know if you’re nearby!

  19. I feel lucky to get to spend every day with my passions. I’m excited (and intimidated!) to work with this staff who has done such a good job building a brand that stands for something so clear. That’s valuable and I want to explore where we can take it.

  20. It’s surreal to now have the responsibility to lead it.

  21. Dwell connected my interest in design – which at that point was limited to making interfaces – to making spaces. Ever since I’ve been balancing the two. One has been the basis of my livelihood, the other has been the basis of my passion.
