people who aren’t physically here or don’t have an open mind won’t get it. some people even live here and refuse to understand it. beneath the tech mist is a burgeoning art/music/creative scene reminiscent of the early days. it’s the place to be and it’s gorgeous! you can surf, skate, snowboard, hike all in the same day then catch your buddies band at kilowatt! i love it here!!

People love to complain about cities like SF but everyone I know who actually lives there loves it and everytime I visit I love it. There's a ton of really fun, cool, interesting things happening at any time and tons cool people creating stuff.

We are selling our place in Berkeley after nearly a decade of Bay Area living and working. I have adored nearly every minute. SF is a jewel imo and highly underrated (or over criticized) right at this moment 😎

This city has the best climate in America. I love it so much. I wish I lived here. The AI researchers, the big tech yuppies, the fact there’s an ethnic neighborhood for cishet frat bros—I love it more than anywhere else in America. The group houses, the cults, the rationalists, the technoptimists, the pure and untapped creative alpha. I have literally not spent more than two weeks in San Francisco. It’s a social scene the size of Dimes with 100x higher impact. “Oh let’s go to clandestino” No let’s go to The Interval at the Long Now.

yeah sometimes it’s $10-$15 for three bands you’ve never heard of but mostly it’s a night of new music, fun experiences, and cool people you would've never met otherwise. My band is playing at Arthouse Gallery in Berkeley.
