This is nonsense - the bay area remains overwhelmingly liberal even liberal left. #SiliconValley is not defined by oddities like Peter Thiel or Ro Khanna.

www.magicalbridge.org The playground exists precisely so that neurodivergent and neurotypical persons of all ages can learn to coexist. What is so objectionable about that to some?

Took my autistic son to the #MagicalBridge playground in #PaloAlto #MitchellPark this morning only to have a tech bro father tell me my son was “creeping out” other kids and should leave. So much for “inclusivity” in #SiliconValley.

Deep dive on SEC's "Regulation Crypto" forthcoming. Incredible how un-thoughtful and unjustified it is. Exemptions bear no relationship to properties of the technology and SEC can't preempt Congress and the courts regarding the definition of a security. www.sec.gov/files/rules/...
