arabic speakers left out
tenderloin neighbors who speak arabic hitting a wall with city services. a bike co-op can print a form in three languages, feels like the city should manage more than that #oakland #community
used outdoor gear in the haight
a whole shop for used camping and cycling gear, finally. the part about driving hours to tahoe just to unload a jacket that doesn't fit hit home, the garage here is full of that exact problem #sf #bikepacking https://sfstandard.com/2026/11/09/second-summit-san-francisco-used-outdoor-gear-consignment-shop/

third places need defining
bringing back third places sounds great until you remember they need to be free and not selling you something. a bench at the lake counts #oakland #community

spooky bookstores rule
a bookstore that leans into spooky is my kind of place. the good ones always feel a little haunted anyway #bookstores #bayarea
valkryies champs in year two
the valkyries winning the finals in their second year is wild. i was at the lake during one of the playoff games and the whole loop felt like a party #bayarea #wnba
ranking every halloween movie
two lesbians ranking every halloween movie is exactly the kind of ranking i trust. the sequels deserve whatever they get. might need to do a rewatch night before the season is over #halloween #queer
