I'm going to move this account over to @christa! thanks for making a good temporary local home, sfba.social - it's been really fun to see so many folks in the area joining the fediverse and to have a nice instance home for people to land

brief walk around park presidio this morning was surprisingly clear! drains stayed clear throughout the rains yesterday, think the rain a few days before gave us and neighbors a test run keeping clear #cawx

The new imagery of this storm this morning is...just as impressive. Wow.

Rain and wind will ramp up later this PM into the evening and peaking overnight in NorCal, and somewhat later in SoCal. If anything, expected winds have increased slightly since yesterday. #CAwx

Drakes Beach at Sunrise, Point Reyes National Seashore, CA, 2022.

Part of a recent series and focus on this landscape. It would have been interesting to see how clouds in the sky would change this image, but I quite like the minimalism.

Just in case you're wondering, the fight against authorizing the use of deadly force via robots by the SFPD isn't over yet. There is one vote left before the policy becomes effective. If you live in SF, you can use this Action Alert to tell your Supervisor to vote "no."

The San Francisco Board of Supervisors on Nov. 29 voted 8 to 3 to approve on first reading a policy that would formally authorize the San Francisco Police Department to deploy deadly force via remote-controlled robots. The majority fell down the rabbit hole of security theater: doing anything to...

I picked up a few books from Green Apple - Golden Gate Gardening and California Native Gardening. have also been poking through the parks department’s urban agriculture resources: https://sfrecpark.org/1404/Urban-Agriculture-Resources

I’m gearing up to plant a garden for the first time! I’m in the inner richmond in SF. anyone here have tips on what has grown well for them here, or resources to check out?

mostly going to do raised beds but also curious about what grows well in the natural soil. interested in things that are edible, mostly, or helpful in some way - plants that contribute to local pollinators etc. low water use preferred
