Yet another superb piece by Lauren Smiley. @MLNow

When discussing the Great Highway in San Francisco, it’s important to understand these points: 1. What’s already been decided? 2. What’s proposed for the future? 3. What’s staying the same? Watch this short video or read a longer explanation here: engardio.com/blog/great-hig… WHAT’S ALREADY BEEN DECIDED Both directions of the Great Highway south of Sloat are set to close due to coastal erosion. This has already been legislated. That means we will never again be able to use the Great Highway as a direct connection to Daly City and the 280. Traffic from Daly City will have to use Skyline and go around the zoo. Traffic from San Francisco will need to turn left at Sloat and continue south past Lake Merced. WHAT’S PROPOSED FOR THE FUTURE Without a direct connection to Daly City, we have to think about what is the best use of the section between Lincoln and Sloat. This is an opportunity to reimagine the space for the next century as an oceanside park. This includes improving traffic flow on Lincoln and Sunset Boulevard to get people where they need to go. WHAT’S STAYING THE SAME The Great Highway will remain open to cars 24/7 from the Richmond neighborhoods to Lincoln allowing full access to the Cliff House, Beach Chalet, soccer fields, the Ocean Beach parking lot, and anywhere in the Sunset from Lincoln.

Still remember you walking into Mission Local and thinking that you must be 16 and then having such fun watching you do a bang up job. Congrats and enjoy! So nice to run into you in BART as you headed to the ceremony.

I think this is the 3rd or 4th slam on van Zweden’s exit from NY and it is irritating, saying the same thing the NYT has been saying for months. Jeez. Give the guy a break and find something else in the musical world to write about. nytimes.com/2024/06/07/art…

During #theBlitz crowds of people sought refuge in London’s Underground stations to escape the nightly bombardments by the German Air Force. The sculptor #HenryMoore (1898 – 1986) documented these scenes in hundreds of haunting sketches known as the #ShelterDrawings. #DontMiss

Excellent, if tragic story.

@GOAnand @akrazia Gooo Geeta! Congratulations and thanks to Angela and David Filo!

Felicitaciones!

@TheMarinaTimes @MLNow 1. No one connected to Mission Local is shopping ML around. This is something you could have fact-checked by merely sending us an email or picking up the phone. 2. Mission Local is not for sale. 3. Donations are up this year. Thank you to all of our donors!

I have heard from two reliable sources now that @LydiaChavezZ has been shopping @MLNow around, and let’s just say their revenue is down. A lot.

@laurensmiley @MLNow @EskSF Of course. Really good piece.

@LydiaChavezZ @MLNow @EskSF Thank you, Lydia!

Yes, such a good piece. Incredible how consistently we are on camera and yet the limits of such detail. Another very smart piece by Smiley. @MLNow @EskSF

@swolf1625 @friscolive415 @MLNow Thank you!

Pot Calls Kettle Black, Allegedly I spent over an hour getting interviewed by Eleni with Mission Local and I suspected she would be critical. But an outright hit piece that itself misrepresents my posts and cherrypicks out-of-context quotes to fit her pre-determined narrative, that I did not expect. The relevant parts of our long conversation that were conveniently omitted from her story is extra telling and shows me exactly how she let her bias destroy her chance at writing a fair story. All I can say is heads up to anybody who gets interviewed by Eleni or Mission Local. missionlocal.org/2023/10/throug…

Congratulations. I followed your amazing story and look forward to reading your book. A great example of the power of curiosity and perseverance.

Congrats Kate! @MLNow

@SusanDReynolds @LiberalD6TL @TheMarinaTimes @MLNow @garciaruize @demianbulwa @EskSF @hknightsf Susan: I don’t understand your hostility. ML is doing well. I am out of town right now but I would be happy to grab a coffee. People are always so much nicer in person. Even me!

@LiberalD6TL @TheMarinaTimes @MLNow @garciaruize @demianbulwa @EskSF @hknightsf At least then he could write the opinion columns he writes now without risking @LydiaChavezZ and her precious @MLNow “nonprofit status.” But I’ve heard from several reliable sources that she has been shopping ML around for a while now and they’re in deep financial 💩

If @MLNow goes down the drain (no pun intended) as I’m hearing it might, maybe @garciaruize and @demianbulwa can hire @EskSF as their toilet paper investigative reporter.
