"And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no more. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three."
(From the Book of Armaments, Chapter 2, Verses 9–21.)

Seeking creative friends to work on projects together

17 Upvotes

The short of it is, I like making things and I want to find a crew of people around here to do that with. I'm 27, male, anti hate, anti AI, pro diversity, pro community, etc.

I have been doing hobby game development stuff on my own for a while now, but I would really like to get involved in a bigger, more collaborative project. Although tech is what I'm most experienced with, what I mainly like is problem solving, so I'm open to most kinds of projects as long as their creative and interesting. I have a couple ideas for projects I think would be fun, but I'm more interested in hearing some new ideas.

I think the point of working on things is to get to know other people. I try to be as upfront and honest as I can so that people feel comfortable with me. If you're looking for someone who will grind away to make a ton of money, or go viral, that's not me. I'm here to make friends and meet new people, simple as that. I'm happy to talk about my stance on pretty much anything, I have a lot of opinions so it's not too hard for me, and I really enjoy talking with others about their opinions, even if I disagree with them.

Thanks for reading, DMs are open to any questions about me or project ideas or even just to say hi.

[SLO EVENTS] SEIU1000: state workers strike in SLO?

38 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I am thinking about organizing a more local strike line for those who are interested in being physically a part of the strike but don't want to drive to fresno.

Between Ash, chp, ccc, cmc, calfire, the dmv, and other departments we should have enough people to make some sort of visual.

If you are interested let me know below!

If you want more information about the strike, why we are striking, and what is and is not allowed go visit:

https://www.seiu1000.org/strike/

I will crosspost where recommended.


There is an official strike line in SLO!!

San Luis Obispo off S. Higuera near the Caltrans area, running from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM on that date. N per DLC prez Tammy.


Edit to add in the strike line!!!

Unreliable bus service since MV took over from Transdev

27 Upvotes

I've been experiencing some frustrating issues with SLO Transit lately, particularly in the evenings.

Recently, the scheduled 7:15 PM Route 1A departure from the Transit Center didn't operate - as a result I had to wait another hour for the next bus.

Then last night, when I boarded the 1A at South Street for the transit center, the driver wasn't sure whether there would be a connecting bus downtown to take me home and had to call dispatch to find out.

Another issue is that buses now frequently change routes when their loop ends at the Transit Center, and drivers don't always know which bus will continue as which route. Passengers are often left going from bus to bus asking drivers which route they'll be operating.

Two different drivers have even encouraged passengers to contact the city directly, suggesting our complaints might carry more weight than theirs.

Occasional disruptions are understandable, but riders should be able to rely on scheduled service without worrying about missed connections or being stranded. In fact, last night the driver told me that a whole group of poly students had been stranded at the bus stop by Kennedy library due to a randomly missing route.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Edit: a driver gave me a card with a number at the city for feedback related to transit matters. Waiting on a reply.

[SLO OUTDOORS] Pacific Wildlife Care info about the Common Murres

Post image
64 Upvotes

The passage of info was not on their website that I could see, so below is the text from this facebook post. ( pacificwildlifecare.org )

-----------------------------------------------

Holy mackerel! This weekend was one for the record books!

From Friday through Sunday, Pacific Wildlife Care admitted 194 wildlife patients, three of our biggest single-day admission totals in our organization’s history. For comparison, we admitted just 11 patients over the same three days last year.

The biggest reason? Common Murres. We’ve admitted 165 since Friday, bringing our total to 743 since September 1.

Why are so many murres washing ashore? Common Murres spend most of their lives on the open ocean, but an unprecedented number have recently been washing up along our coast. Exceptionally warm ocean temperatures are likely affecting the availability of the fish they depend on. This time of year also brings newly fledged young still being cared for by their parents, along with molting of new feathers, all of which require extra energy. When fish are harder to find or farther away, murres must work harder to find food, quickly depleting their energy reserves. Most of the birds arriving at our clinic are severely emaciated.

We need your help to keep up with this unprecedented influx.

Our team is working around the clock to care for these birds. We’re arranging additional temporary pools to create more space, going through fluids, medications, and medical supplies, and running incubators and heating pads to keep patients warm. Staff are working overtime and volunteers are putting in long shifts.

Every dollar helps provide care these birds need. If you’re able, please consider making a gift to help cover these unexpected costs.

Give today: pacificwildlifecare.org/give

A huge thank-you to our hardworking staff, dedicated volunteers, generous donors, and community supporters. This response takes all of us, and we’re so grateful to everyone helping us show up for these birds.

And keep swiping for a special guest appearance! Our Executive Director, Kristin, jumped in to help at the outdoor wash station this weekend. When wildlife need us, everyone pitches in!

High flood insurance quote in SLO for FEMA Zone X (4x homeowner rate relative to coverage) — What are others paying? Why is it so high?

6 Upvotes

I live in San Luis Obispo in a home located in FEMA Flood Zone X (designated as low/minimal risk). Since we've had heavy winter storms in recent years, I wanted to add flood insurance for peace of mind.

However, I was surprised when the quote came back:

  • The premium: Roughly equal to my standard homeowners insurance premium.
  • The coverage limit: Capped at $250,000 max structure coverage (which is only about 1/4 of my home’s actual replacement cost).

To put that in perspective, I am being asked to pay the same amount for $250k in flood coverage as I pay for full replacement coverage on my regular home policy. My insurance agent told me she couldn't find any better options or private flood alternatives.

I'm trying to understand the why behind this:

  1. Why is the rate so high for a low-risk zone? Is this common across SLO or California in general since FEMA switched to Risk Rating 2.0?
  2. Is there something specific going on here? (e.g., slab foundation issues, localized rainfall/drainage algorithms, or private insurers pulling out of CA flood lines)?
  3. What are others in SLO / Zone X paying? If you have flood insurance in a Zone X area, are you seeing reasonable rates, or are you running into this same wall?

I'd appreciate any insights, experiences, or explanations from insurance experts or local homeowners!
