I cannot promise that I would be the best elected official ever to hold office.

But, if appointed, I can promise:

1. I have always paid my taxes
2. I have voted in every election I could
3. There are no literal (animal) skeletons in my closet

This is very funny, but people should know it's not real.

Maybe we started a little later, because it wasn't too bad for us, thankfully.

Chekhov's dirigible is hinted at in the first lines of the movie!

It's literally one of the best sci-fi lines of all time.

Seriously, what is better?
November 27, 2025 at 5:28 AM
Yeah, that seems about right.

Like, this is ~$11 of ingredients and took me like 90 minutes. How you could do this, while paying salary and rent is crazy.

Bad take, Diego. Sorry about this one, bud.

Still does not explain Baltimore.

This is where British food is unfairly slandered.

Good additional context from a former staffer.

It’s a bit more complicated than that…

That was my first thought (particularly as a Baltimore native).

There is *no way* 1/7 people are saying that they "would move to Baltimore if money were no object."

Dude, you can move to Baltimore right now!

Beyond those commissioners, there are two vacant seats held for licensed architects, apparently.

Interestingly, folks who serve on planning commissions are *sometimes* architects, but often not.

San Rafael's (in Marin) planning commission consists of:

Public affairs manager
Food import sales rep
Lawyer
Economics teacher
Interior designer
Architect
