    🏁 what I’m considering Sunnyside (including City College like https://sunnysideassociation.org/the-neighborhood/ does seems greedy)

    The Sunnyside NeighborhoodSome facts about the Sunnyside neighborhood: Founded as a district in 1891 by the Sunnyside Land Company. Located in south-central San Francisco, between City College of San Francisco and Mount Dav…Sunnyside Neighborhood Association (opens in a new tab)

    City College has so many damned pathways that it’s going to take a bunch of tedious human pen-plotter meanders that I’m going to consider it its own thing, like I did w/ Laguna Honda which I already walked but Strava paused as I put my phone back in my pocket from the top of the trailhead so I gotta go do again at some point.

    Bonus, I can start from Balboa Park BART for a while now.

    A map of San Francisco, Balboa Park BART along the center-bottom, Glen Park BART in the top right corner, 280 bisecting along the two, and the entirety of Sunnyside’s streets (and most alleys) marked with a purple trail. I’ve also decided to walk the front paths of City College rather than loop down to Ocean Ave to square off the ‘hood because it was prettier.

  3. Content warning: Mikey7 spoiler, not for the plot itself but a funny world-building aside

    Lol at the worldbuilding you get mid-book explaining why multiples are absolutely taboo:

    a planet colonized libertarians who named their planet Gault gets invaded by a another libertarian who keeps cloning himself and militarizing until he’s taken over, and nukes the first ship to come see what’s going on

    The nearest other planet realizes they have to nip this in the bud and sends a ship into Gault at .9 c.

  4. 24: "Mickey7”, by Edward Ashton ( https://us.macmillan.com/books/9781250275035/mickey7)

    picked up after a friend who had already enjoyed it linked https://x.com/mickey17movie/status/1836197947668860958 in discord, very fun, read it in a few days.

    Discord chat log review from a friend, who, now that I’ve read the book, I’m not sure I agree with re: “its about capitalism”, but it’s definitely about a guy whose job sucks, and it gets a pretty good chapter-long jab in at libertarians which is always vital to the revolution.Screenshot reads:Mickey 7 is a fun read, it's about capitalism and a guywhose job sucksI mean the director did Parasite

    The cover of Mickey7 on paperback, as I read it (almost, I got my copy far enough along that it has “soon to be a major motion picture” on it too)An astronaut is on a spacewalk over a ringed gas giant w/ a nondescript moon over a mostly dark nebula filled star field (which has nothing to do with the story and is kinda hokey but “look at me I’m Science Fiction” gets the job done I guess. The title “MICKEY” is in white along the top with a particle effect that everyone seems to be doing (which makes sense on like, 4k+ TVs to show off but otherwise is just kinda a sand look or snow? idk), while in the center taking half the height of the cover is the number 7, author name in smaller print along the bottom.

  5. Have been watching a pile of Harris’s student’s. TILFBH specifically gells with me, and so I’ve watched and re-watched the first few https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebepc8lYrKs without an instrument, or with an instrument but not a metronome, just kinda singing or playing along as I watch, trying to hear the secondary dominant (the C#), and the Major stuff and so on

    today I felt ready to pickup a guitar and dig out my metronome for the first exercise here, the blues

    my recall for the scales is fine even in every other common CAGED position

    the tempo is fine

    playing with a metronome clackin’ on the 2s and 4s is brutal! I feel like someone trying to jump rope just slamming themself in the leg.

    metronome: clack clack clack clack clack…

    me, trying as hard as I can: clack THREE clack ONE clack THREE clack TWO clack FOUR clack FUCK

    metronome: clack clack clack clack clack…

    if I manage to come in on a correct one I’m fine and it feels fine

  7. Does it like 00 flour and salt? sure looks like it

    photograph of a 6qt fermenting tub this morning with neapolitan pizza dough (100% 00, 65% hydration) I used sourdough starter instead of my usual SAF instant. The dough isn’t exactly flat but it’s at about .75 qt? maybe .5?

  8. Made my first sourdough country bread ( https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/pain-de-campagne-country-bread-recipe, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UL6ogX38NcY) yesterday after following instructions from King Arthur to make my own starter ( https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/sourdough-starter-recipe), after @skinnylatte mentioned how good PJ Hamel’s recipes are ( https://hachyderm.io/@skinnylatte/113105640187688460)

    plenty of room for improvement, but very much not bad!

    photograph, top down, of a round loaf of sourdough bread sitting on a medium oxo plastic cutting board which is itself on a white kitchen towel w/ a blue stripe on it. the loaf has three vertical slashes and two horizontal slashes and is a dark brown to black in places, just how it should be afaik

A long serrated bread knife is next to the loaf on the right.the crumb consists of bubbles large and small, scattered throughout, surrounded by with a very thin but hard crust

    my intent here, from the get go, was to use the starter for pizza dough but the bread was good enough and easy enough that I’ll probably also be making it on the regular too (I’m already looking forward to having a loaf on hand the next time I make coq au vin)

    I’ve already got a never-miss “water the house plants” Sunday morning ritual to add the starter to, and almost all of the equipment and techniques from pizza making transferred well

  9. Sitting at chase center eating dinner at Gott’s the night before last and U.S. football was on the giant wall TV and I couldn’t exactly follow what was going on but it included a timeline of a player’s multiple concussions over the past few years, seems bad, idk
