I think a standalone library is foolish. However, a library which includes with either a large screen TV and/or a bar would be awesome.
Thatās a great idea. You can read all your ebooks on that screen.

Iād want that screen on my bedroom ceiling so I can read in bed.
Dedicating an entire room to dining was our greatest mistake.

I donāt see how game room and movie room are separate. Screens be screens.
Could also throw in the jacuzzi. Pelican.

Some people live light. I get that. But if you have a specific room dedicated to TV, working out, drinking or playing pool but you donāt actually own any books - thatās legit weird and unseemly.
Iām old enough to remember when āgamesā meant table games like pool, airhockey, foosball, etc.
My dream game room setup would have a pool table, a nice poker table, a darts alcove, and a couple classic arcade games like NBA Jam and Ms. PacMan, plus a spot for assembling puzzles or playing board games

Rep. George Santos orchestrated a 2017 credit card skimming operation in Seattle, the man who was convicted of the fraud and deported to Brazil said in a sworn declaration submitted to federal authorities Wednesday.
āI am coming forward today to declare that the person in charge of the crime of credit card fraud when I was arrested was George Santos / Anthony Devolder,ā Gustavo Ribeiro Trelha wrote in the declaration. It was sent by express mail and email to the FBI, the U.S. Secret Service New York office and the U.S. Attorneyās Office in the Eastern District of New York, according to a copy
Has anyone photoshopped this guy on the grassy knoll? Heās allegedly commited more crime than is humanly possible.

there was def some truth to this fifteen years agoāand of course it was always pure projection on SFās part and a pretty terrible lookābut this has died down a lot and as the USA has gone increasingly apeshit thereās been way more of a california/west coast esprit de corps thing going on up here than norcal vs socal or SF vs LA

people that enjoy putting together puzzles are weird.
iām sure thereās a $/hr that iād accept to do a puzzle, but a) itād be a lot, and b) i could probably still only do it for an hour or two.
Yeah I canāt say Iāve heard anyone talking shit about LA up here, but admittedly im very much a transplant in a particular part of society (and even then not much. Turns out a pandemic and a baby means a lot of time at home)
In my time in the Bay, the LA hate was 100% sports rivalry. There wasnāt any real animus for the city or people living there. If you arenāt following the Niners, Giants, Sharks, or Warriors, you would never notice it. I guess Quakes, too.
People in SF hate LA, just not as much as they hate The Peninsula.
I lived in Nob Hill and Upper Haight in the late 90s. The crowd I was in definitely hated LA over more than sports - vapid, looks obsessed, way too into their cars, cokeheads, social vampires, fame-glommers, plastic surgery addicts.
Everyone in LA is not a vapid fame-glomming social vampire! The rest is pretty accurate.
Itās not just and maybe especially not the people. Unless you get a very curated tour, LA is an ugly concrete and asphalt expanse full of immense parking lots and horrible architecture. SF likes being urban and walkable and having bikes and mass transit. LA is the antithesis of what they wantā¦San Jose and thereabouts as well.
