San Francisco (almost) native. Maker of kinetic sculptures and automata. Arduinos and arcade buttons make me smile.

This ranking biases toward places lots of people walk/bike to begin with. Tons of pedestrians/cyclists at Market & Octavia = tons of opportunities for injury.

Very few people walk or bike near 19th Ave & Sloat, but it still made the citywide top 10. So if you're wondering where, if *you* decide to walk there, you'll have the highest risk of getting hit, 19th Ave & Sloat is by far the most dangerous on the list.

Finally, Mastodon becomes the place we all run to for verification of an earthquake. Shout out to the sfba.social family!

The steady march of progress, or something.

Thanks to @ai6yr, I'm now following a couple of San Francisco Bay Area earthquake alert bots: @sfeq @caeq

I dug out my inks to try painting with them for nearly the first time and then I had a lot left after I was done with what I had planned because I poured out too much, so I painted a bunch of random stuff from gardening magazines and old #CuratorPrompts

This one is from #CuratorPrompts168 :D

We were on pins & needles 1 year ago having putting everything we could into saving #JFKPromenade, along with SO MANY others.

Measure J passed by 63%! And history was made for pedestrians in San Francisco.

If youā¤ļøJFK, make a gift today at walksf.org/donate for more historic wins!

The fact that the main SF library is walking distance from my home is such a huge life upgrade. Almost any book, dvd, CD, even vinyl record I’d like? Put it in my library cart. Check out and hold. I collect them on my way back from work (or to / from the train, or from the farmers market which is kinda all the same thing). It has such a vast collection. I just borrowed a ā€˜Kodak Basic Developing, Printing, Enlarging in Color’ from 1977. Didn’t even need eBay

#Anchor Brewing is doing well with their effort to form a co-op and keep the #brewery open in #SanFrancisco, and I'm sure they could use more help.
