i have to keep my fb alive for stupid reasons but one of the only things fb has figured out is that i like seeing photos of sf and seeing posts from old sf progressives like cleve jones and like this baller post from tom ammiano

so for years i watched the always desperate for attention political class submit to the sycophantic drooling of Manny playing them and feeding off their insecurities and moral bankruptcy .Now like the rats on a sinking ship they are disavowing when they compromised and enabled To all of them, Dorsey Mandelman, Wiener, Lurie, DCCC, Leno, et al as John Stewart would say Fuck off

Make sure to follow @transitriderseb.bsky.social if you don’t already. Both Measure RTM and the AC Transit board elections on the ballot this November will be critical to getting bus service back on track.

if you read enough biographies of jazzmen they’ll start dropping incredible names of guys they toured with

My biggest back then was a guy named Rastus Crump who was with Thomas's quintet. He was a small little man

By the first week in November, we came back into New York and went into the Lafeyette Theatre for the second time that year. The stage show that we were a part of was called Music and Laughter, and the headline singer was Alice Harris, who was very well known in vaudeville, and the other star was Garbage Rogers, a top comedian from Chicago. He was a very funny guy. We liked one of his skits so much that we stole it and tried to use it later on.
Old Garbage used to come onstage in a full-dress outfit, top hat, cane, gloves, and everything.

in other cities do people actually wait for riders to exit the train instead of shoving their way through a sea of people trying to deboard or is that just universal

he’s here multiple times a week, which i applaud him for, and presumably because his parents are sick of hearing take five with no rests

there is a teen who has begun a sort of “sonny rollins on the manhattan bridge” tenor sax practice on the bench outside our home. he knows careless whisper and all my lovin and take five but crucially has no concept of a rest. you can see what this might do to take five specifically

everyone should be extremely proud of me that i didn’t get up and start pacing and yelling “that’s NOT jimmy stewart” when the riverdale guy jimmy stewart biopic trailer aired before 70mm imax odyssey. on the other hand maybe that would have counted as healing my inner child

if you want some wildly specific reading, here’s a 9/11 as-it-occurred forum thread from the leading Lindy Hop forum of the time. it is the only saved forum thread from this incredibly important forum. i am furious about that every day but it’s an interesting read rikomatic.com/Yehoodi911th...

i sort of presumed that as i got older i’d stop knowing what was being played on the radio as i heard new stuff, but no, it really seems like out in the world i regularly hear stuff from when i was 18. it’s like every grocery store or fast food restaurant wants me to feel like it’s still 2013

fondly remembering the days when they started running more regular bus service again and london breed had prerecorded messages about it on the bus and on my early morning 44 the audio came on with “hey san francisco, it’s mayor london breed!” and more than one person audibly groaned
