Palpable culture shift in SF since the endemic — it's a lot less "revenge of the nerds" / a playground for tech bros. Those folks left. The ones who stayed got rabid about cycling, a gateway drug to giving a fuck about transit, street design, housing, climate change, etc.

The beach is taking itself back. The orcas are attacking billionaires. The javelinas are tearing down golf courses. Nature is healing.
This is one thing San Francisco is getting right. Slowly but surely, climate change is taking back parts of the planet we’d arrogantly given to cars. Ocean Beach wants its dunes back; it will have them. And the city is going to make it spectacular.

Say it with me: . A corner store getting converted into a luxury single family home is gentrification. Upzoning that parcel, in a very well resourced neighborhood, to allow dozens of units, is not gentrification.
A pair of German immigrants transformed an old grocery store in Bernal Heights into a modernist, flower-inspired dream home.
