I love the one with lights & sounds — definitely will pull that out once this season.
Last year’s edition was my least favorite. I skipped it.
Think I’ll wear this one the most.
I’ve heard such good things about Toronto transit!! Hope to visit one day.

Also I made the @alamedapost.com’s 5Q4 about a year ago!
I think more people in Alameda know me for this than anything I’ve written in the Chronicle.

The turkey emoji is for the wild turkeys of Alameda.
I like the anchor — we’re a Navy and Coast Guard town — but think it’s past time we add a little turkey in the corner of the city flag.

Alameda has been invaded by turkeys. They’re jerks. And also beloved
Passive aggressive turkeys have invaded Alameda. But instead of creating a controversy,...

Also saw this one over the weekend at Pier 7, AKA the “Always Be My Maybe” pier.
The most Instagrammable city in the world can’t stop won’t stop.

Agnos was also the first S.F. mayor and one of the first assemblymen to march in the Pride parade.
I know *every* local politician eventually got their own float. But in 1978 — just six years after the parade started & struggled to get city permits — this was an important action.

Agnos on losing reelection because of his Embarcadero stance:
"You know what Peter? I'd do it again in a hot minute. Because I've found what sticks to you, like a good breakfast in the morning, is the knowledge that you made this a fabulous city.
"The important thing is we make a difference."

I wrote this story on a tip from @davidgallagher.bsky.social, after one of the 1952 race cars surfaced in Penn Valley.
Car-free JFK forever. But if the owner gets this running I think we should allow 1 lap at 10 miles per hour just for history.
