I would put money on De Leon being paid off somehow, either with promises of some future office, or outright cash. Hope I’m wrong but doubt I am.

It was probably strongly suggested that he back off after he got through the primary if he wanted a future in the state Dem machine. And surprise surprise De Leon is running for LA city council and will probably shoot for mayor after that, so he might be planning the big city mayor to national politician track that Garcetti failed at. He'll want the major donors and party leaders in his corner for the attempt.

If nothing else, you can count on Boomers to be myopic to the bitter end.

Some good news today: San Francisco will remove more than 9,300 marijuana-related crimes from people’s recordsquote:San Francisco prosecutors announced Monday they would move to expunge 9,300 marijuana-related convictions dating back decades, part of a sweeping effort to rethink “the war on drugs” now that pot is legal in California.

Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. In the next nine days, seven of them will supposedly have rain. I'm never going to be able to bike to work again

I've heard tell from lands afar that you can ride your bike in the rain

Not when the only bike trail available runs directly next to the river all the city's stormdrains flow into, which completely floods out the trail for days on end when we get even an inch of rain, let alone two sustained months of it. I mean I could bike up along First Street to work - there are ostensibly painted bike lanes - but I'm not interested in being murdered by traffic on one of the busiest streets in the city. I already had to do it once when I tried to bike last week and found the trail completely flooded out, and I was almost hit on three separate occasions by dipshits who didn't look before trying to turn.

You see, if we don't get any rain, the brush dries out and becomes extremely flammable and the fire season sucks. On the other hand, if we do get rain, then the brush grows all over the place, meaning there's more fuel, and so the fire season sucks. We just can't win.

However, I love rainy weekends because they're just so cozy and :3 It's just confirmation bias, yet always feels like it rains during the work-week and then ends right before the weekend and picks up again on loving Monday. Hopefully we do get some nice rain this Sat/Sun.

Well that's where climate change is going to come in and give us a nice big gently caress you! The locked-in warming so far is predicted to make rain outside of the rainy season increasingly rare, make the rainy season start about 2 weeks later and end about 2 weeks earlier, and increase the total average annual rainfall by about 20%. A nice extra rainy winter to give plenty of brush growth then an extra long, hot, and dry period to get it all ready to light right up.

My brother's place is a winter wonderland right now and in five months it'll be like hell's stuffy attic. Probably intermittently on fire as well. At least he has a xeriscaped yard, which not only saves a ton of water but is also super easy to maintain (don't really have to prune rocks, after all).

Honestly if we can even be so lucky to have rainfall at all we should call that a blessing. We are pumping our aquifers dry which in a sane society would be used only for emergency drought conditions, instead it’ll be gone in 20 years and no way to replenish it. A there goes our water supply. If our early 10s drought went on another 3 years we would be so thoroughly hosed. As it is if we really get some hot summers and dry winters for like 5 years in a row we are going to be turbo hosed The Las Vegas-Phoenix Area is also a ticking time bomb for that reason. It’s getting drier and lake mead has maybe 15 years left tops. Once that drops catastrophically low and given even a 3 year mega drought, the whole area is going to basically have to be evacuated since they don’t have any other sources of water.

More annual rainfall, but constricted into a narrower timeframe leading to worse flooding and worse fires. Weee! As for everything east of the Rockies, well, I hope you like sand!

That's what I'm doing right now, actually. gently caress going up 87 in rain. Doesn't help the loss of free exercise though. Light rail takes so goddamn long to slog up first street that if I just take it to downtown and bike the rest of the way to work it takes just as long as riding the LR all the way, at least when I can use the trail.

Can't blame on the ground farmers that their practices weren't sustainable if it were working fine for them until it didn't. Of course it's obvious in hindsight but plenty is.
