    🏁 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

    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. 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.

    Mickey 17 (@Mickey17Movie) on XWhat's it feel like to die? From director Bong Joon Ho, comes Mickey 17 - only in theaters January 31, 2025. #Mickey17X (formerly Twitter)

    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

    Things I've Learned From Barry Harris Episode 1 Scales on the Blueshttps://www.skool.com/chris-parks-tilf-barry-harris https://www.skool.com/chris-parks-tilf-barry-harrisThis is the first in several episodes discussing the t...YouTube

    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
