Via email, I I want to know your most contested opinion on food. Do you eat meat? Hate cheese? Are you a vegan? Is organic produce worth it or a waste of money? Do you care if crops are genetically modified? Would you eat veal? How much do you tip? Email [email protected] — PolitiTweet.org

@sbjinsfo By your lights, is it true or untrue that unduly onerous state and local regulation caused San Francisco to have much less outdoor dining than its residents wanted for decades before the pandemic? — PolitiTweet.org

Even if you've heard by now about San Francisco's travails with outdoor dining regulation, click through for a link to their even more absurd approach to trash can procurement https://t.co/kmXu5b7f45 — PolitiTweet.org

@sbjinsfo That graphic represents what the system produces when left to its own devices and but for the pandemic San Francisco would still be stuck with it and the ABC instead of all the wonderful outdoor dining it got instead. It shouldn't take a pandemic! — PolitiTweet.org

@sbjinsfo Yes, there was this, but it was so farcically absurd that they shifted to an emergency approach that actually produced results, and then, while trying to make it permanent, because it was better, they started adding red tape back which may result in much of the good being unbuilt — PolitiTweet.org

@mtracey I get the sensitivity to *outing* a trans person who just wants to pass, just as a got the sensitivity to outing gay people against their will, but the idea that harm is done to a famous person who publicly transitioned by noting their former name for clarity makes no sense to me — PolitiTweet.org
