Anyone have Loquat trees with too much fruit?

I moved to alameda recently and miss my loquat tree. Does anyone have a tree and it’s producing too much fruit? Or you don’t like to eat loquats? I am willing to pick it myself and will be very respectful of your tree. It’s so delicious and is only ripe a short period time. DM me please 🙏

Why does San Francisco own this tiny little uninhabited wedge of Alameda?

Edible image printing

I wanted to find a place that can do printing of an edible image for a cake. I am planning on doing the cake myself, I just wanted to get the image printed (in food safe edible ink)

I’m hoping to find somewhere that would assist me with printing the image (of course I’ll pay for it). I just don’t want to have to go out and buy a printer myself.

I built a rent map what your neighbors in the hood actually pay, not what's listed

Motivation:

My friend signed at listed price on a 1BR in Hayes Valley. A month later his neighbor told him they signed the same floorplan for less, with a free month. Same building, same landlord.

Its completely free, community driven and anonymous. Tenant-reported, not landlord-listed. Compare any pin to the hood's typical.

I blame the parents

Large group of kids were fighting in the parking lot of the southshore shopping center. the kids dispersed slowly but surely thanks to alameda pd. but the ifficers were visibly outnumbered so it they may have been trying to move with caution in order to get the crowd to leave safely out of the lot. eventually I witnessed the group begin to surround the AC transit bus preventing the driver from leaving. looked the kids were trying to convince the driver to let them in so they could leave but Im pretty sure the driver was smart enough not to. minutes later alameda PD moved in and started ushering the kids out towards the sidewalk. for what reason all of this occured Im not sure, but this was active from 8:30pm to 11pm yesterday night

What is going on at South shore?

There are a ton of.... teenagers? Roaming in packs and screaming and fighting. There were a lot of cops at the beach.

What's the issue with Surfside?

I am looking for a place to move to and I'm on a budget. Finally saved up enough and paid off enough debt for me to start finally looking to live alone and move out of a shared house I'm living in.

I keep seeing the Surfside apartment listed in Alameda and I know it's a bad sign that it's been listed for well over three months. What's the big issue with that area? Is it bad? I go to Alameda pretty frequently and it's gotten busier over the last four years I've been frequently going there. I've never really heard anything about this area for the price, which is below 1,700. It looks like it might be okay but is there something about it that keeps it from being rented out?

What is this black smoke?

Does anyone know what this black smoke is? This picture is taken from the south shore parking lot, looking in the direction of Park St. I can smell something in the air

To the blue/silver minivan who honked and sped past me on Buena Vista this AM

Maybe I was stopping for a reason you couldn't see, which is why you almost killed that turkey while you were taking your kid to their baseball game. Stellar job of parenting there.

How fast are single family home rentals going in alameda rn?

Waiting to see if our application gets accepted for a house out of state. We’ve had some family stuff come up and need to move soon but our lease is through the end of the year. From my understanding of our lease is we are responsible for rent until they find a new tenant plus one month lease break fee.

I’m a bit nervous to sign a new lease but our options for housing are extremely slim where we are looking.

It’s a 3 bed plus bonus room, 1.5 bath, central alameda single family house. Backyard and garage. But it’s a bit outdated and small. We pay $3.5 a month but I know the owner wanted to remarket it higher when we renewed our lease. We negotiated him down.

Does anyone have an idea of how fast a rental like that would go?

Is there a way to get home from SF between 12-2am?

New to Alameda. I want to go bar hopping in San Francisco, but I’m worried about being able to get home that late at night. Do Ubers still run that late? Or would it be worth it to have a designated driver?

After School Costs

Just a mom with a young toddler thinking way too far in advance!

I’m trying to find information on Recreation Afterschool Program costs and it’s very hidden. Anyone care to share what that runs for during the school year? And what do you all do with your kids during the summer?? Assuming this all has to be cheaper than what daycare is.

Thanks in advance!
