It’s 8:21 a.m, 48° and we’re headed for 57°. Details are here. It looks warmer out there.

As you read us today you may find many glitches and accents that come from no where and appear to have no relation to any language. Blame it on our migration to a swifter server. There are some glitches and we’re trying to work them out.

Mmm if you’re looking for something without “creepy ghosts” for nearly $900,000 SF Curbed suggests you look here.

If that sounds too high, you may want to go to the Rent is Too Damn High Party on Thursday at the Makeout Room – a fundraiser for the Housing Rights Committee.

Some say there are worrisome new leash laws in the making. Others would say there should be more.

And added to this hodgepodge, we have the run down of new committee assignments for the Board of Supervisors from the SF Chronicle.

It’s definitely a random thoughts kind of day. Enjoy! lc

I’ve been a Mission resident since 1998 and a professor emeritus at Berkeley’s J-school since 2019. I got my start in newspapers at the Albuquerque Tribune in the city where I was born and raised. Like many local news outlets, The Tribune no longer exists. I left daily newspapers after working at The New York Times for the business, foreign and city desks. Lucky for all of us, it is still here.

As an old friend once pointed out, local has long been in my bones. My Master’s Project at Columbia, later published in New York Magazine, was on New York City’s experiment in community boards.

As founder and an editor at ML, I've been trying to figure out how to make my interest in local news sustainable. If Mission Local is a model, the answer might be that you - the readers - reward steady and smart content. As a thank you for that support we work every day to make our content even better.
