Wondering why the left is split in SF’s Congressional race to replace Nancy Pelosi? This is by far the best overview I’ve seen: jacobin.com/2026/06/sf-congres

In San Francisco, a Divided Left Eyes Nancy Pelosi’s Seat
Two progressives — Justice Democrats cofounder Saikat Chakrabarti and union-backed city hall veteran Connie Chan — are fighting to advance past the primary for Nancy Pelosi’s congressional seat. Their race has become a referendum on the SF left’s future.

Starting a day with severe depression is a matter of looking at a pile of problems all of which seem insuperable, picking one, breaking it into smaller problems which still seem insuperable, tackling them one by one slowly. In the sure and certain knowledge that the problem probably really was insuperable and sooner or later you will be stopped by a subtask you cannot complete... And that will have to be left as an insuperable problem for the next day. Rinse and repeat.

I've got the growing feeling that DevOps/SRE Microservices was a surefire way to slow down any business almost to a halt.
If you followed that route you likely have many small teams that need to coordinate with each other for every change you make. Nobody can make decisions or talk authoritative on overall things anymore because everything has been decomposed and shifted left to the poor developer doing everything now.

Just started listening to this one, and I'd absolutely recommend it. It's great.
It's really hard to explain how complicated beliefs can be, especially to folks in an urban bubble. The truth is, part of my anarchism came from listening to #rural folks. I didn't really live in a big city until I was like 18, but I came to those places already with a set of liberal biases.
Some of the things I experienced in those places pushed me towards being a Communist. But there are some strangely anarchistic tenancies, even in those who profess to be politically the opposite.
My stance on guns was largely shaped by understanding and extending the arguments of rural gun owners. They continued to evolve long after, but it took actually listening to break through my liberal biases and understand the ways in which gun control can actually intersect with other forms of oppression. There is a lot more nuance than I had grown up to believe.
And it goes both ways. Conservative gun owners have absolutely no intellectual against anarchist gun arguments. They're generally either gonna fall into racism that you can talk about, or start to radicalize left. There are plenty of similar pathways.
But also, not everyone in rural areas is conservative. There are plenty of rural anarchists and communists. They just get buried under stereotypes.
Anyway, this has been great to listen to and I'd recommend it.

headed to the post office to mail a couple mix tapes to ypsilanti and rockingham (va)

Hand-painted J-cards and tape labels. Tape 1 (purple with green polka dots) A solid violet-purple background covered edge to edge with dozens of hand-painted green dots, scattered in loose clusters rather than a strict grid — playful, almost confetti-like. Simple two-color palette, high contrast. ALT by Claude
Hand-painted J-cards and tape labels. Tape 1 (magenta/red top, red with painted loops on bottom) The top panel (the label area over the cassette windows) has a pink-to-magenta gradient sitting above a red band flecked with small blue dots, like leopard-print texture. Below the cassette hubs, the second panel is a solid red field with loose, looping line-drawings in blue, purple, and maroon — they read like abstract scribbled circles/knots rather than representational shapes. ALT by Claude
Hand-painted J-cards and tape labels. Tape 2 (dark abstract/textured — reddish brown) This one has a more painterly, textured look: a mottled rust/copper background (looks like it could be a marbled or sponge-textured paint job) with a large dark navy/black organic blob in the upper left, a bold red circular "eye" or button shape right of center, and a thin lavender line running along the bottom edge. Moodier and more atmospheric than the other tapes. ALT by Claude
Hand-painted J-cards and tape labels. Tape 2 (green/red with wormlike shapes) Top panel: green field over a red stripe, straightforward color-blocking. Bottom panel: bright green background with two long, wavy worm/snake shapes — one red-and-pink striped, one green-and-lavender striped — winding across the panel, surrounded by small dark magenta polka dots.

Nice day in the #OakWoodlands of Golden Gate Park where along with oaks I saw bush monkeyflower, California sagebrush, hummingbird sage, coast buckwheat, beach strawberry, common yarrow, Hooker's evening primrose, and even a little rooreh by the path.

Various shrubs and herbs, including bush monkeyflower, also known as sticky monkeyflower, with its characteristic light-orange trumpet-like flowers, said to resemble a monkey's face. In the foreground, an herb, coast buckwheat, with white flower clusters, and deep green leaves belonging to coast strawberry creep down a small stone.
Hooker's evening primrose plants, tall herbs with big yellow flowers. Oaks behind them.
Common yarrow (herb with white flower clusters), orange California poppies that have closed up for the evening, and a hummingbird sage next to the poppies. The area is mulched and has teal flags to indicate plantings.
Rooreh, also called miner's lettuce, a small stout plant with wide leaves shaped like satellite dishes, to the left of a wooden step on a trail.

#SilentSunday

A tiled path leads to a clearing with a bench drenched in warm sunlight from a blue-grey sky. Small pieces of greenery are on the right and left with the earth otherwise mostly clear and a light brown, and an old, strong three is on the opposite side of the bench. The end of the path is rounded off by a slightly raised edge, and beyond it is mostly green, but you can make out roofs of a few houses as well a small part of a lake if you know where it is.

However, instead of a weapon, a yellow wrapper with the words "CHEESE BURGER" printed in large, bold, orange letters is sticking out of the holster. The wrapper appears to be from a fast-food item, likely a cheeseburger. The person's hand is visible on the left side of the frame, resting near the hol…

US judge gives self-exiled Chinese billionaire Guo Wengui 30-year prison term for fraud
A self-exiled billionaire Chinese business tycoon has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for his fraud conviction. Judge Analisa Torres sentenced Guo Wengui on Monday in Manhattan federal court, saying he still insists incredibly that his conduct caused no loss and harmed no one. Given a chance to speak, Guo said he came to the U.S. to destroy the Chinese Communist Party. But the judge said he instead diverted investor money to live lavishly. Guo left China a decade ago and reinvented himself…

In a pair of rulings yesterday, a federal judge dealt two blows to Trump’s stewardship of the Kennedy Center, which he took over last year:
U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper ordered the removal within two weeks of Trump’s name from the institution,
which Congress established as a living memorial to President John F. Kennedy in 1964,
and he partially granted a preliminary injunction, saying that the center had to halt plans to close.

Both the SF Congress race and the California gubernatorial have this weird dynamic where the viable candidate with the most-left platform is an ultra-rich person self-funding their campaign. I don't like it, but nor do I like that the alternatives — the candidates of relatively humble origins — are selling out *to* ultra-rich people. It seems like a symptom of our new gilded age.
