Mike is right, this is fantastic and well worth your time.

I didn't respond to the @npr.org ragebait!

All my best to this FEMA employee, and may they succeed in their mission:

North Berkeley under siege from drivers. In the 1970's the Elmwood district received significant life saving traffic calming those same treatments should be extended to all areas of the city. The public works department needs to move with more haste to reduce the road violence on our streets.

As others have said, this piece is extremely well-made. Thank you, @missionlocal.org. missionlocal.org/2025/09/sf-i...

An electric vehicle subsidy I can get behind. 👏🏻🔋🚲

And apply now for a chance to get a $400-$1500 rebate from @avaenergy.org for a new e-bike. avaenergy.org/go-electric/...

Here, have a great video about electric cargo bikes, bike buses, and all that jazz. You need a video like this today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypUG...

I appreciate how clearly Alana lays this out. I would love for all the reporting on this topic to be at least this clear and unambiguous.

Another great East Bay Kidical Mass this past weekend. Huge turnout!

George is right. Previously: oaklandside.org/2023/12/27/b...

It was a blast. Thanks to everyone who came and thanks especially to everyone who helped keep the riders safe!

Today at 12:30p in Berkeley, at Willard Park, East Bay Kidical Mass is hosting our September ride. You should come! For me personally today is an especially meaningful event. luma.com/8a10kimt

The escalation of anti-trans rhetoric over the past two weeks has been shocking to me. I’m not naïve about their intentions, but the speed at which this is going is extremely worrying. Gillian’s piece is worth your time.

I'm biased since this was built by a set of friends, but even accounting for that I think it's a great idea and demo/video.

I don’t think I need to translate this one.

As usual, @berkeleyscanner.com does an incredible job of relating the stories of people affected by violence.

“From the network that brought you Andor”

I laughed at this really a lot, and needed that laughter really a lot. ❤️

This is the language of aspiring genocide. For any Dems arguing that abandoning trans people is politically expedient or even necessary, get clear that an extermination campaign is what you’re signing up for.

"a beloved coastal highway" excuse me what

The driver who ran down three Berkeley residents Tuesday morning in the Elmwood district chose his victims at random, authorities say. All three people remain hospitalized tonight. Don't miss the latest developments.

What a horrible event. This is right near me, a place where my family and I bike all the time. www.ktvu.com/news/bmw-dri...

Unbelievably grim account of what happens after you are hit by a car in California. sfstandard.com/opinion/2025...

@bikabout.com incredible thread on her School Street

For what it's worth, I think Marisa is a way better person to listen to than Klein. And you can support her directly. bsky.app/profile/mari...

“HOMES FOR ALL—WE WON’T WAIT” in the same window as “We don’t want this! STOP Up-Zoning! SAVE the Elmwood!” Give me a fucking break. (That “END FOSSIL FUELS” won’t happen if we “SAVE the Elmwood,” either.) Nabolom Bakery on Russell St.

GOOD. ✊🏻

On Wed 9/10 AC Transit will hold a vote ratifying a grant from the Dept. Of Homeland Security. If they ratify the grant AC Transit would be required to cooperate with & support ICE. Contact the board or come to this Wed. Meeting at 5pm. NO ICE, NO DHS GRANT. www.actransit.org/board-of-dir...

Thank you, @mayoradenaishii.bsky.social.

Breaking this out again today Democrats (*glares at @schumer.senate.gov*) need to shut down the government when the continuing resolution comes up in a few weeks When an authoritarian is trying to consolidate power, you have to throw yourself on the gears of that machine

Absolutely inexcusable.

Same for me.

One of my kids was denied the Covid booster today at San Francisco Walgreens. I wasn’t able to provide an acceptable reason for eligibility, they will require a prescription. Attesting to a medical condition they wrote down the name of for the other kid was good enough. Be forewarned.

Did Bay Wheels set another record for ridership in the East Bay last month? Yes! Did Oakland add new stations to the system this summer? Also yes!

Always love seeing my extremely talented cousin Lisa in the news. Also, on coping strategies for teens: “One teen talked about biking with his dad…” 🥰

Rebecca is absolutely correct. That this is happening in 2025 is completely absurd and should further undermine the legitimacy of the MTC board. Bay Area leaders need to demand better.

”Wikipedia is one of the few platforms online where tremendous computing power isn’t being deployed in the service of telling you exactly what you want to hear.” www.theverge.com/cs/features/...

“It's not called a beg button for nothing. The vast majority of street space belongs to motorists. This is what needs to be deconstructed. A pedestrian should never have to beg to walk. Thinking differently about our cities will never be outdated, compared to the all-car system.” Je suis d’accord.

Fantastic! This is just a stunning stunning show. So much phenomenal work. If you can get to it, go to it.

Thank you, Mayor Frey

So disappointing that a majority of the 5 gubernatorial candidates who spoke at @eqca.bsky.social Leadership Summit didn’t even mention transgender people. It’s not ok to just talk about the LGBTQ+ community as a group, especially when our current governor won’t stand up for transgender people.

If the @sfbayferry.com for the @wgoldenstate.bsky.social game is sold out more than a week in advance, then: (1) go Valkyries, and (2) "we're gonna need a bigger boat" (or more boats)!

I simply don’t understand why *anyone* is praising @governor.ca.gov Newsom for his approach when a clearly-better leader is saying things like this. We don’t need a third-rate Democrat—or a third-rate Republican, whatever he is today—when we can praise actual leadership instead.

@sfbayferry.com this interface is frustrating. The game is in a week. You let me select the date. I go all through date and time selection before you tell me tickets aren’t available. But, you don’t tell me when they will be available. Why not make this easier? Let me buy in advance, please!

Tonight at my commission a 12 (?) year old boy made his first-ever public comment. His arm in a sling, he talked about being hit by an SUV riding his bike earlier this week. This kid was so young he asked to speak early because public comment was past his bedtime. We’ve completely failed our youth.

I love it so much as well that I made a video. youtu.be/Jj8vF_O4BHQ?...

@transit.app may be my single favorite app. And I like a lot of apps. It’s great!

Unfortunately the draft bike plan for Berkeley is woefully inadequate for delivering bikeable streets for all ages and abilities. It needs serious help and we need to speak up. Read this op ed and email comments to [email protected] www.berkeleyscanner.com/2025/08/19/t...
