It's been an amazing ride, but 16 years later, it’s now (past) time to put this account out to pasture. This place sucks. You can subscribe to my newsletter at tablehopper.com and find me over at @bluesky: bsky.app/profile/tablehopper…. Take care.💫

Thank you, Ben Bobo, for ending the rein of those incredibly uncomfortable green slat benches. What a wonderful legacy, SF thanks you! sfchronicle.com/sf/article/p…

Longtime S.F. resident makes surprise bequest: $3.6 million for park benches

The huge windfall has astonished city parks officials and local residents — and probably would have surprised even the man himself, according to his estate’s executor.

As someone who recently moved and needs some new furnishings, I want to do a shout-out to @PoorHoneys in the East Bay (great prices!), and they offer a special deal with @lugg (which is an amazing schlepping service). Save your back! And your bucks.
