Saw someone complain about children having to see a drug user on Caltrain, and that they asked Caltrain staff to enforce a fare check so as to kick them out. Later in the thread he says the person probably needed medical attention. Was mad that staff refused the fare check.

Bunch of good parents said they would be appalled for their children to see a person trying to enforce a fare check on a person who needs medical assistance, and being cruel, more than whatever else they may have been up to.

Honestly feels like living here is about living amongst actual ghouls. Make no mistake, the ghouls are the people who hate the homeless, who hate the addicts, who want to enforce ‘safety’ and ‘think of the children’ but who will never lift a finger to help a single person.

I am going whale watching twice in the next 10 days which feels like a good ratio

I had a relative who had all kinds of Chinese musical instruments and he let me play all of them quite badly as a child.

He was always supportive and he said ‘you should think about playing in a Chinese funeral band’ and I always found it hilarious.

Lately, I’ve been thinking about learning some of these instruments more formally (I only have western classical music training and some jazz). There’s a woman who teaches Chinese music at a community music school here in SF and I’ve been curious. Or I could just sit with these guys every week and see what they do hehe

I probably play the dizi (the Chinese flute) and the suona (the Chinese trumpet) best. Those also map to my ‘western’ instruments

I really enjoy playing music with people and for people and I should do it more

Shortly after I pretended to play a Chinese string instrument with old men, this guy strolls by (I actually know him). He’s an actual accountant

SF Chinatown is what you make of it. Kitschy, traditional, or a bit of both
