"On March 28, local residents and activists gathered on the Burnett Avenue overpass in Morgan Hill, California, one week after someone hung a red flag with a black swastika in a white circle from it…multiple organizations including Showing Up for Racial Justice and Silicon Valley De-Bug came together with dozens of community members to actively 'take back the overpass.'"
Is there something going on at SFO? I just had a flight from LA abruptly canceled, and then my replacement flight was delayed. I will be reaching SF at like 2 in the morning now. #sfba
Once again, people are wrong on the internet. This time about hillside letters -- and the related category of hillside figures -- in the San Francisco Bay Area. While there are lots of resources on both, all of them were incomplete or riddled with errors -- so I'm setting out to make a definitive list of where these hillside letters and figures can be found in the Bay Area.

![Screenshot of the Wikipedia page for hillside letters. It says: Hillside letters or mountain monograms are a form of hill figures common in the Western United States, consisting of large single letters, abbreviations, or messages displayed on hillsides, typically created and maintained by schools or towns. There are approximately 500 of these geoglyphs, ranging in size from a few feet to hundreds of feet tall. Hillside letters form an important part of the western cultural landscape, as they function as symbols of school pride and civic identity.[1]](https://mastodon.tmm.cx/system/media_attachments/files/114/252/699/467/132/248/original/e7c492bbb0a186f6.jpg "Screenshot of the Wikipedia page for hillside letters.

Hahaha, Mercury News (no link, fuck em) covered the Tesla Takedown protests today by asking for comments from…the president of Silicon Valley Association of Conservative Republicans, whose pearl of wisdom was that the “far-left” AOC will “destroy” the Democratic party. What the fuck.
What absolute, irrelevant, bothsides-ing horseshit. Fuuuuck you Mercury News, for forcing a protest story into the tired old “Democrats in Disarray” cliché. Glad I dropped my subscription years ago.
Thanks to @uccawx I learned San Mateo County in California, where I live, has a Tsunami Hazard Area Dashboard. it’s super easy to use, too.
Bad news: I’m in a tsunami hazard area. (But I knew that from the last time I looked at such maps.)
Good news: I can drive a very short distance in one of two directions and get out of the hazard area — I don’t need to go as far as I went when we had a tsunami alert a while back. That’s good, because traffic was hideous when we got that alert.

Staffing shortage puts office that forecasts weather for SFO in ‘uncharted waters’
A National Weather Service office in the Bay Area that provides weather forecasts for major California, Hawaii and Nevada airports, including San Francisco International Airport, is critically low on staffing amid a federal hiring freeze.
The Center Weather Service Unit Oakland, which is located within the Federal Aviation Administration air traffic control center in Fremont, is down to just one meteorologist, according to Dalton Behringer, a local steward for the National Weather Service employees organization. #weather #SFBA #SFO #NWS
