<p>My first day back in San Francisco, I:<br />- waited in a long queue for a delicious new Japanese sando shop;<br />- visited my local bookstore, where a stranger overheard me complaining about Baudrillard and proceeded to tell me about how they once disentangled a drunken barfight between Quine and Rogers Albritton, and then told me about their working theory of spatial modal extensions which bridges Cantor and Dedekind but hasn't been published because they struggle too much with LaTeX (I recommended Typst);<br />- went to the banya where I had an incredible cold plunge but also had to leave two saunas because people were talking about effective altruism;<br />- finished the night at a friend's house where we sautéed various mushrooms for a vegan friend who has inexplicably never tried them before;</p><p>which basically sums up the highs and lows of living here???</p>
