I have 1 full day + 1 half day off in San Francisco and will have a car so open to a short drive. I prefer nature, museums, and insta-friendly spots over food, nightlife, etc. Would appreciate any recommendations!

Be careful with your car if it’s a rental. I’ve gone twice with friends who, both times, parked their car on the street in front of restaurant valet and were victims of a smash and grab (everything was locked in the trunk). When I had a car in San Fran I kept it in the hotel parking unless I was driving to/from well outside of the city (aka Napa). The cops said people recognize rentals and they’re the primary targets, and no one does anything about it.

If you’re up for a short hike there is a very pretty trail going from GG bridge to Lands End. Best if it’s sunny. Also fun to get a bike and bike over the bridge to Sausalito and take the ferry back. Top of Lyon Street steps is a great spot for pictures. I actually think the Alcatraz tour is very well done too. Sales force park is surprisingly nice too.

Lots of right wing hysteria about liberals trying to engineer equality of outcome to correct sexual/racial inequities (in higher ed, for example). I think we all want socioeconomic, gender and racial barriers to opportunities to be addressed, but no significant number of people really believe in equality of outcome right? This is just a straw man argument.
