Good luck getting San Franciscans to come to the east bay

it's pretty easy to get San Franciscans to come to the East Bay tbh, just double their rent or evict them! Har-de-har-har

It's pretty hard to see a screening of a non-famous old film anywhere but the PFA these days. Castro's scheduling has gotten pretty boring apart from festival season.

you can see that the shoe is mostly off her foot

I see it now... more like some thoughtful citizen kind of hooked her shoe back on at some point

I haven't been to that space in years -- probably over a decade -- I don't remember how big it is. The article doesn't say how big the space is or whether they've had rent increases during their tenancy. 26% is a lot compared to the normal annual bumps in a standard general industrial lease, but if they haven't seen their rent go up in the last x years? It's shitty, no doubt, but I'm sure that we've all seen shittier, more fucked up situations

eh there's usually not much to be gained from publicizing details of that kind of thing, don't want to jeopardize the investigation etc. I do wonder if it's connected to the recent spate of gang-related killings though, or that recent quadruple homicide in Hayes Valley. cuz this many murders already in the new year is kind of crazy.

I didn't realize that it had been there for 18 years! I remember being mildly resentful when it opened, because I was quite fond of what had been there before ... though now I forget what it was.

i think the last time i went in there (maybe a year ago), they didn't have the thing I was looking for that in my mind they totally should have had, but still, it was a decent place and what will inevitably replace it will be much worse.
― Mistah FAAB (sarahell), Sunday, 1 February 2015 22:53 (nine years ago) link
It has been a while for me, but I remember when I finished Engines of the Night and I was like I want to read all these book Malzberg talks about that I haven't read, I just went in there and for like $15 got like seven of them (the Syndic, Rogue Moon, Bug Jack Barron, Persistence of Vision, etc).

then again, the last time I went into Adobe (which was last month), I didn't find anything along the lines of what I was looking for either, so maybe it's just me.

i'm getting pretty tired of businesses constantly pointing out, in explicit yet pass-agg terms, that the reason they're closing or increasing prices is bc of min wage increases or employee healthcare costs. esp when they don't append it with something like 'and that's how it should be, bc ppl deserve to earn a living wage'.
