Just got a survey questionnaire that’s VERY OBVIOUSLY paid for by the Ethan Agarwal campaign for California Governor.
Agarwal is running as a Democrat, but his position is classical Republican: tax cuts, coddle the rich, trickle-down economics, what else is new.
Republicans are now so batguano-lulu-bananas far to the right that classic “pro-business” economic conservatives are running as Democrats.
Anyway, don’t vote for Agarwal. He seems to be a Republican in every sense of the word except the party affiliation.
So many wild pigs on my run today in Joe Grant park. More than I've ever seen in a single outing.
I wonder why? Good year for breeding? Fewer predators? Not being hunted as much? I wonder if they'll mess up trails in the Diablo Range this spring.

Hey San Francisco:
This musician who attended Trump's Jan6 rally (but didnt go to capital) is playing at The Chapel this weekend on the 9th.
Thought you'd want to know.

I'm a 68-year-old Black trans woman, and my home is the East Bay. I recently had to switch my healthcare provider and ran into additional related costs I didn't see coming, resulting in a chain reaction. Your support, however small, will be deeply appreciated.

East Palo Alto, once known for its high crime rates, had zero homicides in 2025, and zero in 2023.
I think a complex mix of community work, policing work, and yes, gentrification, has changed this city for the better.

Please avoid travel on 101 today through #Marin
First low-lying exits have been closed
Trust me — you don't want to get stuck in the traffic we saw yesterday (not to mention water!)
Actually, avoid all travel through Marin if you can. Yesterday we (like everyone else) took side streets as 101 was fully closed and it was super frustrating for all involved, including emergency vehicles, who need to get through
I'm staying home today
Lest anyone following me not get why the #KingTides are a big deal… this photo captures the scene not far from us yesterday
