Hundreds of SF protesters form human banner to spell out defiance to Trump

Several hundred people spelled out their dissatisfaction with the Trump administration Saturday by forming a human banner at #SanFrancisco’s Ocean Beach.

The group formed the words “IMPEACH + REMOVE” by assembling in each letter to protest the actions of Trump and adviser Elon #Musk.

Protesters nationwide have rallied on weekends in response to #Trump’s steep #tariffs on imports, his push for mass #deportations, and his threats to higher education funding in response to pro-Palestinian demonstrations.

Our #TablasCreek boxed wine experiment made the front page of the #SanFranciscoChronicle today!
Tried setting my display name for my local newspaper's (#SanFranciscoChronicle) comments section and got stuck by the Scunthorpe Problem where websites use naïve find & replace for offensive words even if they're just a subset of a longer word with absolutely no negative connotations. I would have hoped that a paper in one of the world's biggest tech hubs could do better, but even in San Francisco newspapers still have limited IT resources 😔 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scunthorpe_problem

What happened to "stop the presses"?

Just when I was preparing to enjoy a cup of coffee and read about the adventures of Georgia inmate P01135809, here's what I find on the front pages of the New York Times and San Francisco Chronicle this morning.

My Mom used to say, "now that's a kick in the pants".

This Scott Ostler item in today’s Chronicle is hilarious — when Steve Kerr pulls CP3 into his office and tells the new guy, “Chris, I want you to play with joy.” #DubNation #Warriors #SanFranciscoChronicle #ScottOstler

And yes, I still get the physical newspaper delivered to my house. Though it’s gotten awfully expensive so I’m starting to wonder if it’s time to drop it.

The Merc is way better than the other two papers I read semi-regularly - the #SanFranciscoChronicle and the #BostonGlobe. I can’t imagine subscribing to either of those two slim periodicals for anywhere near what I pay for the Merc.

And no, I wouldn’t subscribe to the #NewYorkTimes either, because 1. They’re Trump apologists, and 2. No comics page.
