Our company orders catered lunch once a week, but throws out the leftovers after a day. I'm trying to propose something a bit more sensible and found this: http://www.foodrunners.org/donate-food/
OTOH this sounds good, but on the other, I see the same homeless people outside the building every day, and sending the food through a middleman seems kinda circuitous? Anyone else have thoughts?
― Siouxie Sioux Vide (Leee), Tuesday, 18 December 2018 23:28 (five years ago) link
just do it yourself? idk
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 18 December 2018 23:39 (five years ago) link
Yah thats total bs if they are throwing out a significant amount of food. I'd complain to facilities and make them do something about it.
― kurt schwitterz, Tuesday, 18 December 2018 23:53 (five years ago) link
I've thought about just passing out the food myself but I'm sort of worried about logistics, and I don't want my own prejudices to bias who gets a share and not.
― Siouxie Sioux Vide (Leee), Wednesday, 19 December 2018 00:05 (five years ago) link
can vouch for foodrunners being awesome. may be a middleman, but they know what they're doing wrt food hygiene standards and nobody in your company has to worry about an foodborne liability

‘Video mural’ maybe. it’s pretty impressive. All the moreso in that he’d never made anything animated like that before. Scale is what makes it imo.

xp lol, I don't know his real name, that's what he goes by (he collaborated with Agnes Varda on Faces Places)
also I would really recommend Lisa Reihana's multi-channel video "In Pursuit of Venus (Infected)" currently at the De Young, it's in a similar scale
― Dan S, Sunday, 25 August 2019 00:38 (four years ago) link
the Reihana is equally impressive
― Dan S, Sunday, 25 August 2019 00:41 (four years ago) link
Ah gotcha
Xp
― Οὖτις, Sunday, 25 August 2019 00:42 (four years ago) link
the Reihana video is based on Charvet’s Polynesian wallpaper from 1806, “Les Sauvages de la Mer Pacifique” and is 13 feet tall and 70 feet long with multiple audio channels. It’s a continuous video scroll and is over 60 minutes long
“a vast digital scroll moves through live-action vignettes placed within an idealized background inspired by the original wallpaper. It asks viewers, “Who tells the story and how do images, past and present, shape our understanding of history?”. a story about colonialism
― Dan S, Sunday, 25 August 2019 03:39 (four years ago) link
it is amazing

Interested in experience/opinions on Santa Rosa. Like, what would it be like to live there.
― mom tossed in kimchee (quincie), Monday, 26 August 2019 12:44 (four years ago) link
I'm not a Peanuts fan so there's that. Also I don't drink, so the wine thing could be annoying.
it's very far north and burned down and is now rebuilding. that's all I can say. I have a friend who lives up there and is carless and is constantly cmplaining that she's missing out on everything that happens in the bay area because there's no easy transportation down here. I know some other people who have a lovely midcentury house with a pool there.

It’s a long way from the City, that’s for sure
― the public eating of beans (Sparkle Motion), Monday, 26 August 2019 14:02 (four years ago) link
My parents live north of Santa Rosa, and I’ve spent a lot of time around there. City has some sprawl and the typical empty-downtown-now-getting-breweries-and-roasters.
But the weather is gorgeous outside of the rainy season. Each nearby town has its own character – Sebastopol is only about 10 minutes away. Cannabis culture is starting to boom there.
The alt-weekly (The Bohemian) and the daily paper (Santa Rosa Press Democrat) should give good snapshots. Happy to answer anything specific.

Santa Rosa barely survived those big fires a few years back. Russian River is a world-class brewery there.

I was up there for a long weekend earlier this month, stayed in a house in between downtown SR & Windsor (north SR?). It's a rustic college town, kinda bedroomy (for some looooong commutes, though Novato is starting to see more industry moving in). Access to the coast and rivers and parks in West Sonoma is amazing. The neighborhoods that perished in the fires (like Coffey Park) are almost all rebuilt. The beer is great (Moonlight, Russian River, Cooperage), the wine is better. The farmers markets are incredible. The pace of life is nice. The traffic is terrible. You can fly out of STS if you have somewhere far to go and don't want to trek down to SFO/OAK by car.
