Cost of housing pandas in SF Zoo:

'The project comes with an estimated price tag of up to $25 million for housing alone, including the $3 million to $5 million needed to construct a temporary home for the bears while a permanent enclosure is built.'

Why??

Maybe someone can let NPS know who these trash bags are who destroyed a historic site off roading. Another reason to dislike off-roading

Imagine being a billionaire and then using your influence to change the law so people dont see how polluting you are. Some folks think Billionaires are harmless but in fact they are the most harmful people on earth.

TL;DR is San Francisco is a good place to stay as climate change wreaks havoc on the world. Another reason to stay put and fight the MAGA liberals

Shame on Gavin for not advocating for giving the land back to the Indigenous people with the Feds and shame on the department of Interior for having an Indigenous head and asking for money from the same people they stole the land from.

I only learned to love sewing after I took this course. There is a $50 off now. I highly recommend it if you are someone who learns by doing and are put off by sewing patterns which absolutely do not teach anything when you try to make something.

A very good review by @kixes on what to expect from the new Singapore Prime Minister (more of the same but probably worse)

This whole school board thing is exactly playing out in SF too. Suddenly SF school district has no money? My hypothesis is this is a ploy by the billionaire class to undermine public education which they believe is the reason people are hating on them.

All of those who recalled the school board and did some fake nonsense about algebra are suspect in my mind.

Lets also not forget schools have a lot of real estate that these billionaires would love to get their hands on for "development"

Timeline of events leading up to the killing of thousands of tamils in Sri Lanka this month in 2009 by the Sri Lankan army (and some Indian Peace Keeping Forces). Eerie to read about it right in the middle of another genocide occurring right now.

Then – Like now – US was firmly supporting Sri Lanka (unclear how far the support went).

'About three years ago, some employees stumbled upon and shared a video of a unique submersible vehicle parked inside a garage, according to two people who viewed it. Nicknamed “Wet Nellie,” the white Lotus Esprit sub had been featured in the 1977 James Bond film, “The Spy Who Loved Me.”
The vehicle’s owner: Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk, who had bought it for about $968,000 at an auction in 2013. It is not clear whether Musk was aware of the video or that it had been shared.'
