Social Security and #Medicare is sort of a scam for undocumented workers, who pay taxes into these program despite being excluded from their benefits. In 2022, this population paid almost $100 billion dollars in social insurance programs.

Some company is having a free "AI" event at Moscone Center on June 6 (which is down the street from me) and since I like free food and stuff, I've just registered. They also gave out referral links, so if you too like free food and stuff, then use it.

On a side note, I think the only time I've been inside the Moscone Center was to get vaccinated.

I am happy that the San Francisco Board of Supervisors passed a resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza today. Regretfully, my own District 6 Supervisor voted against it, but it's OK since the final vote was 8 to 3.

San Francisco asks residents to rate their feelings of safety in their neighborhood during the day and at night. This is used in part to measure the overall “feelings of safety and trust in police“ of residents.

The neighborhood with the lowest safety rating isn’t the Tenderloin or South of Market.

It is Seacliff.

Seacliff is a former residence park. Very exclusive neighborhood on the far side of the city, next to the Presidio, filled with single-family homes and for the longest time white-only.

It is also conveniently left off the map, but appears on the chart. It is the only neighborhood with a D rating.

Are electeds really expected to legislate around people’s feelings based on surveys like these?
