This morning I’m on the upper Great Highway in SF - permanently closed to commuters and tourists in cars - is essentially empty. Friday at 10:28am. And people refer to this road as a “park”.

Let’s decide once and for all if the Great Highway will be a park or not. I’m putting this question on the ballot. Should the Great Highway remain what it was the past century? Or become an iconic oceanside park that defines San Francisco for the next 100 years? Details here: I believe that an oceanside park is good for our city. I’m also working hard to tackle traffic concerns. And I’m purposefully putting this on the ballot so voters have the final say. We’ve made the most of a part-time park on the weekends — from senior yoga to dragon dances, jazz performances to Halloween costumes on parade. Now we can make it full time and official. We can give San Franciscans a real coastal park with playgrounds, seating for ocean and sunset views, plazas for concerts and holiday celebrations, and anything we can imagine. We could call it the Great Sunset Park. This is a once-in-a-century opportunity to create something as essentially San Francisco as the Golden Gate Bridge. A park is not only a good time. It’s also good for the environment. The Great Highway is already becoming a road to nowhere. The Southern section is closing due to coastal erosion. Drivers will be forced to turn inland to make their way out of the city. So, what’s the solution? Work is underway to smooth the path for drivers down Lincoln and Sunset. By simply turning left on Lincoln instead of taking the next left at Sloat, we can create an amazing coastal park. The Embarcadero used to be a double decker freeway. Crissy Field used to be a military dump. That is unimaginable today. But the decision to tear down the Embarcadero freeway was controversial 35 years ago, just as the decision about the Great Highway is now. I wonder, will the Great Highway for cars become as forgotten as the old Embarcadero freeway? Will our kids and generations after them be able to imagine San Francisco without an oceanside park? Will we be the lucky ones who get to create this joyful place that will define San Francisco for the next century? We get to decide this November. Read more about the measure and why it’s on the ballot:

The Sunset neighborhood hated turning this highway into a park so much they recalled their supervisor last night, even though SF voters approved it. Just because the city is famous for fighting and removing its freeways doesn’t mean everyone is on board.

When a majestic lion appears on the road, all vehicles must stop, regardless of one's urgency. This is a strict protocol that everyone travelling through the greater #Gir region must adhere to. A mature male lion was spotted on the #Bhavnagar #Somnath national highway near Dudhala village in #Amreli district, forcing vehicles to stop. Know more🔗

🚨 DSA National Co-Chair: We Use the Democratic Ballot Line as a Vehicle for “Socialist Power” and “the Democratic Party leadership hates that, and we think that's great.” Ashik Siddique made the strategy explicit: DSA runs candidates on the Democratic ballot line, and it also works to “throw out bad Democrats,” but the larger goal is building “independent power” that can take on both parties. “We are trying to organize to throw out bad Democrats, but we're also building socialist power, and the point for us is to build independent power through our organization.” “Mostly we do run people on the ballot line in primaries on the Democratic Party ballot line, but we have our independent power, and the Democratic Party leadership hates that, and we think that's great.” Sure sounds like DSA is a parasite and the Democratic Party, for some reason, refuses to rip it off.

🚨 Black ice triggers catastrophe — largest crash on a Japanese highway As many as 57 vehicles collided due to black ice on Japan’s Kan-Etsu Expressway. The chain crash began after a truck skidded on the icy road — a domino effect followed, with passenger cars and trucks slamming into it one after another. After the collisions, a fire broke out, and several vehicles burned out completely. The affected section of the highway has been closed, and traffic is effectively at a standstill.

In case you've missed it, something completely insane is currently happening in the state of Oregon. A group of liberal environmentalists are trying to put a referendum on the statewide ballot that would amend state law to ban hunting, fishing, and even pest control. It would make it illegal to kill any animal and virtually wipe out the entire agriculture, hunting and wildlife management industries overnight. And the organization behind it has over 90% of the signatures they need to put it on the ballot.
