It’s such a shame the 90s bands I see being remembered are almost all male, when the 90s were a paradise of woman-led bands: Hole Belly Garbage Skunk Anansie Portishead The Cranberries The Breeders Who am I forgetting

the thing about raising a kid as a not-wealthy person in San Francisco is there actually is a lot of aid available if you have the time to spend all day every day filling out forms and making calls and interacting with various systems and websites that are 95% broken

After some 32 years, I have been laid off from Xperi, whose music editorial database is featured on Allmusic. I enjoyed working there and will miss having steady work. If you have any leads or opportunities, let me know. I'm open to writing, editing and consulting.

@rmorast @jen_rice_ I do not, but I don't know if we ever figured it out. It looks like @jenradcliffe forwarded it to me, she might remember... but it might have just dropped out of the sky with no warning.

John King’s Ferry Building book is out! I’ve been looking forward to this for years! I love the kind of history that still breathes in the present - where the lessons are more relevant than ever. John is 👑 in that space. Order for yourself & your history-loving friends! 🌁❤️
John King@JohnKingSFChron

Every large city has an iconic building that reveals how today’s city came to be. That’s what led me to write my new book “Portal: San Francisco’s Ferry Building and the Reinvention of American Cities,” published today by @WWNorton (1/6)
