The wording makes these look like three separate issues, but they're directly connected.

If Prop 41 or Prop 42 passes AND gets more YES votes than Prop 40, it could block Prop 40 from taking effect even if Prop 40 also wins a majority.

So if your intention is specifically to pass the billionaire tax, the consistent vote is:

YES on 40

NO on 41

NO on 42

This interaction is very easy to miss just from reading the proposition titles, so double-check all three before submitting your ballot.

Watch out guys!

This morning, Oct 17th 2026 at about 0815, I arrived for an event at RoadRunner Sports in Hamilton Shopping Center and parked in front of B12 Love and See's Candies.

The event was from 0800 to 1000, promoting running shoes that participants got to try on, take for a run and after the run enjoy beverages and prizes.

As I made my way from my car to sign in at the event, I heard a sound and turned to see that a female from a white 2018 Honda Accord (CA: 9TXN993) parked next to me had opened their car door and slammed it into the side of my vehicle.

I took pictures of them, quickly signed in and went back to my vehicle. They were still leaning on their door which was pressed into the side of my car. I told her that she hit my car, she said she was sorry and only then did she move her door off my car, but the damage was done. I went back into RRS to change into the new shoes for the run, came back to leave my shoes in my car and take more photos. The white Honda Accord was still running and I tapped on the window. A different female rolled down the window. I asked her if she was the owner of the car and she denied it. I told her the car is running and it looks like she has the keys so it's either her or the other female and she tried to play dumb. I asked her where the other female was and she pointed at House of Bagels and said she didn't know. I told her I needed insurance information because they've dented my car and she said she won't provide that. I told her she should get a hold of the other person then or I would start making calls and she said "Call whoever you need to call" and rolled up her window.

I called non-emergency 911. While I was on the phone with dispatch reading the license plate number, she got out of the car, locked it and walked toward RRS, confirming that she and her friend were there for the same event, and the run was about to start. Dispatch said it would take a while for an officer to get there so I waited. The organizers for the event started taking everyone to the side-walk to begin the run but I didn't go with the group and waited. The female who had the keys to the car, came back to her car, took pictures of the damage to the side of my car and nonchalantly walked off to join the group on the run.

When the officer got to the parking lot, they verified my information, ran her license plates to get her information and tried to call her to come back to the parking lot. She ignored their calls so the officer went to RRS to confirm how long the run was going to take and see if their cameras captured the parking lot as well. She eventually came back and completely changed her demeanor for the officer. She admitted that she was the owner of the car and tried to say that her friend did it but she didn't see it. Then she tried to say that the dent to my car did not exactly line up with her door, knowing that she had moved her car and the proof of that would be on the businesses security cameras. The officer could not make her give me her insurance and since she did not drive the car away, it was not classified as a hit and run. Also because B12 Love wasn't yet open the officer couldn't confirm with their cameras that this liar had indeed moved her car but the dent was on the same height as her car door.

Posting this as a warning to everyone in the area and the running community.

Is this a safe space to vent because I got stuck going the wrong way home and ended up in the f***ing hellhole that is the traffic jam to spina farms. How hasn’t the city/county come in and try to fix this situation? It’s become a hazard to the people who actually live in the area. Took me 30 mins to get home.

All 3 are good!

Hi everyone, my mom is 58 and she comes from a background of accounting and engineering, but it's been a rough past 5 years for us which forced my mom to pick up a weekend job at a farmers market. Her employer is super abusive(hasn't paid her in 3 months) and the pay isn't great and my mom is old and can't handle the physical labor anymore. We just really need the money to put food on the table we've been living paycheck to paycheck.

My mom has worked a lot of customer service, admin, accounting, and engineering related jobs but it's nothing big to where she makes life changing money. She was hoping to find a weekend job to help earn some extra money but I know most places want full availability. My mom works full time during the weekday but she can do friday evenings, and full open Saturday and Sunday. She's a hardworking woman and she learns fast, she loves to work and she's loved by customers and everybody at the farmers markets.

If anyone has any idea or looking for someone to hire, feel free to get in contact with me. My mom is an amazing woman and she just really wants to work.

Also, for those that will ask or assume, yes I work. I pay for school by myself by working at In-N-Out and am an EMT, but I'm making barely enough for school.

Thank you for your time!

Didn't know how to flair this

Not affiliated with the promotion in any way.

Plugging the show because:

• I've had fun at past ones
• It's rare that a local indy runs a venue this big
• It's rare that BTW runs in SJ instead of Newark
• There's always discussion here when WWE, AEW, and NJPW come to SJ, and there are probably a lot of SJ wrestling fans who don't follow the local indies, who'd want to check this out if they knew it was happening

It's a stacked show for their 30th anniversary and will hopefully be a ton of fun.

A few months ago, the city cleaned up unhoused folks along the bike path on highway 87 (south of Tamien station), and it was pleasant to commute on the path for a short while. The unhoused folks didn't really bother anyone, but unleashed dogs were a BIG problem. I carry a pepper spray just for them.

But, now those unhoused folks with the SAME unleashed dogs are back, and I've had encounters of those dogs chasing me again while I am commuting on bike.

If you have encountered same issue, I urge you to please send the mayor and city council members an email(s). I have reached out to them in the past, and I think it had an effect an clean-up of the area before.

They really need to fix fences and sweep the area regularly (like once a month) AFTER clean-up to keep the places safe for commuters, bikers, and hikers.

These are public emails available on city/council websites.

I spend most of my time up near RWC, and typically go for Mexican food up there. Vs when I have business down in San Jose, where I go for Vietnamese food bc it’s much less available outside of SJ etc.

I suspect San Jose has corners of Mexican food that’s not rep’d in RWC.

What should I add to my short list?

Mostly looking for sit-down style, though I guess if there’s a type of antojito that’s only in San Jose I would love to know that.

I'm trying to find a version of my parents old rice dispensers. I think it was about 3ish feet high with buttons to dispense 1, 2, 3 cups of rice at a time. I've tried going to my local Lions, H-Mart, and a few other Asian super markets, but I can only ever find the tiny, counter-top rice dispensers. Does anybody know where I might be able to find one?

Preferably male landlord

I have a rav4 2008 that needs some repairs like brakes, struts, shocks, etc.

hi! my partner was at the San Jose airport recently and fell in love with the little airport chickadees. they really wanted a plushie, particularly of Ernie (the one with the aviator goggles) but couldn't find one while at the airport. from poking around on the SJC instagram, it looks like they do exist.

neither of us live in San Jose but I would love to surprise them with one. does anyone know if there's somewhere I could buy them one? or do I just need to hope one of us is back at SJC when they're in stock? TIA!

My school is trying to look for places to request in-kind donations for our students and was wondering what chains, grocery stores, or stores people have had success in the past with? I’ve already reached to a few local retails but was curious where else to reach out.

We work with kids of all ages who are on the spectrum if anyone knows of orgs like that we can reach out too would be a plus!!

Looks like this moving house is growing.
