Happy Make A Friend (on transit) Day! This morning Transbay Coalition volunteers and allies passed out nametags to riders at a dozen @bart.gov @caltrain.com @countyconnection.bsky.social @trideltatransit.bsky.social & Wheels stations to help celebrate the day www.kalw.org/bay-area-new...

The City of Oakland selected Fruitvale BART Bike Station to launch its new e-bike lending program, which allows Oakland residents 18 and up to borrow an e-bike for four weeks for $120. Qualifying low-income residents, including those signed up for Clipper START, pay just $20.

Wednesday morning is going to be great! We'll have folks at a BUNCH of @bart.gov & @caltrain.com stations plus the Jack London @sfbayferry.com. Special shout out to @countyconnection.bsky.social @trideltatransit.bsky.social and LAVTA for all their help on this. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

@transbaycoalition.bsky.social made a game for the whole Bay to play on #MakeaFriendDay (today)! The game: see someone else with a nametag, say hi and ask them about the thing they wrote on the nametag. BART riders were encouraged to board the second car to help facilitate connection. Cute!

VICTORY! The emergency funding deal we fought so hard for in 2025 has finally been made! The state will issue a $590 million emergency loan to hold off disastrous cuts to BART, Caltrain, AC Transit, and Muni that would have started this July. (1/x)

Make a Friend (On Transit) Day is next Wednesday! Join the fun and help pass out name tags at @bart.gov @caltrain.com, bus hubs, and @sfbayferry.com terminals that morning. And who knows, an hour of your time might help spark a lifelong friendship. Check it out docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Took a pic of a bug, found out it was ladybug larvae, was reminded of how many there are. Then found this and placing here for later. blog.scistarter.org/2017/09/help...

Just completed watching this documentary. It's incredible. www.mygardenofathousandbees.com/the-film

It was delightful to see and try to determine birds I saw in Hungary. Now I'm back to my morning porch sitting. The morning chorus is calming and I just saw a hummingbird use our bird bath. Day made.

I put together this fun video of @peterhartlaub.bsky.social exploring Sunset Dunes, San Francisco's newest park on the former Great Highway. Come for his impressive piano recital, stay for the laughs @sfchronicle.com youtu.be/U9OfHCSa_wI?...

I am so lucky to live by an oak tree. In a span of 30 minutes, I've seen a ruby-crowned kinglet, our resident bushtits flitting about looking for nest material, and a white crowned sparrow.

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

"The sound of birds stops the noise in my mind.” When and why did Carly Simon say this? Nevertheless, to me, I wholeheartedly agree. youtube.com/watch?v=z7xw...
