I’m totally sincere when I say we tried so hard to find a place we could afford and liked in Oakland/Berkeley and it never worked out. It’s one of my favorite places anywhere, for real. I hope we get to come back someday!
Be honest. Part of you is still in the Bay. You know the Peninsula wasn’t the spot for you.

2 years ago i was working a cash register at a store with a deli counter and i watched as someone's EBT card declined because their sandwich was toasted and that was a real "what the fuck is this system" moment
Most people don’t know that with SNAP you are banned from buying “foods that are hot at the point of sale”. So even if you have SNAP (which people don’t now) you can’t get cooked food. Which means you need to also actually have the resources to PREPARE a “healthy” meal.
Thinking about the social stigma against eating fast food in a country where poor people are being starved by the govt, the cost of groceries and fresh vegetables are astronomical, and a cheeseburger at McDonald’s costs $3.50.

“Clean” and “healthy” eating rhetoric is racist, ableist, and classist.

It’s not framed this way, but what they’re demanding is that people in cities like NYC refuse to address their issues to privilege the politics of “flipping red and purple seats blue,” which they haven’t even demonstrated an ability to do.

Dick Cheney did more than anyone else to build up expansive and destructive executive branch powers in the wake of 9/11; he lived to see another president turn those same powers against his own daughter.

He should be a warning sign to the GOP today but too many of them are in the cult.

Astead Herndon left the New York Times for Vox.
