Hey Wharfie, even the WSJ is countering Trump's claim that San Francisco is a "shithole." While it's still far from ideal, I can personally confirm that San Francisco today is a lot livelier than it was just a few years ago. San Francisco Emerges From the Shadow of a Doom Loop (WSJ, paywalled) Quick Summary San Francisco is rebounding. Its crime rates have dropped, with burglaries down 28% this year, and the number of homeless encampments has fallen. Rents in San Francisco are up 12% year-over-year, marking 13 consecutive months of growth, and foot traffic has increased. The artificial-intelligence boom is driving recovery, with companies like Salesforce and Databricks expanding their presence. Tenchusatsu

Wharfie, check this out. Genuinely cringe moment from the GOP who is still trying to cope with No Kings ... Republican Rep. Chip Roy: "The truth is the marxist, radicals, and Islamists the Democratic Party promoted this weekend, they cannot handle the truth. The truth is that there is a king and that king is Jesus. And… Charlie Kirk was willing to say it and he got killed for it." (r/CringeTikToks) Wow, those must be the reasons why we should kneel down and kiss Trump's ring, AMIRITE? Tenchusatsu
