Contrary to the pattern in other California cities, Oakland City Council is often far more supportive of housing than planning staff.
Planning leadership has insisted on keeping parking mins outside of transit areas, arbitrary aesthetic design standards, shielding high resource areas like Rockridge
SF friends, the minke whale is still here about 250 yards west of Point Bonita. Bring binocs and patience.
Another incident in which a driver tried to flee the scene of a non fatal crash and killed the other person in the process.
Had no idea. (mechanical braking upgrade in wet weather) Anything to retain and claw back ridership is a good thing.
BART found a fix for the problem that caused 34,000 delays in a year

People love car free spaces.
Do yourself a favor and head over to the Yosemite Conservancy cams.

No thank you.
Something tells me it is about to get very cold around these parts.

San Francisco! Which wheel? When bike? How transportation?!
THE NEW WHEEL!
Join us tomorrow as we chat with cycling pros about moooooving San Francisco, only on BFF.fm!
From the Yosemite Conservancy webcam (Glacier Point view) this afternoon. Not AI. Insanely beautiful.
SEN. OSSOFF: “.. why are roving gangs of masked men — who look like they couldn’t pass the Army physical exam — dressed up like pretend Delta Force operators, on our streets, demanding papers, dragging people from their cars, and shooting people to death?”
@acyn.bsky.social
Haha! Totally.
😂
Stepped out of my office in downtown SF and it is a zoo. We have very low flying nuke sniffer choppers, a dirt bike gang of cops, 2 advertising planes and a red tail hawk.
I'm still waiting for my Super Bowl VIP party invite.
Before the Alex Pretti Memorial Ride we received this email:
"This has nothing to do with cycling. Please focus on cycling-related political activism."
If bikes aren't political why do we keep finding ourselves talking to politicians so often to have safe streets? #biketooter #bikeden […]
Just down the road in SM, Redwood City's tagline is "climate best by government test". Sounds like they *need* moar free car private storage.
Doc, Steve Kerr, NBAPA and other major sports' leaders should keep speaking up. Ownership and commissioners like Adam Silver should speak up as well.

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.
The regime is terrified, Trump ordered DHS to “under no circumstances” get involved with protests in Democratic-led cities. The announcement is a day after millions of protesters took to the streets with many vowing to fight the regime & ICE. #3E #GoodvsEvil #NationalStrike

Scenes from today's SF Critical Mass ride for Alex Pretti. So much support along the way and people power!
Their patience is paying off. Now to upgrading the O Line.
Sunday Streets is about to lose city funding. These events are critical especially their focus on equity priority communities. Takes 10 seconds to sign the petition.

Square blocking off Valencia for some event and no signage for alternate routes
hey Square, shutting off a block of the primary N-S bike commute path, just as hundreds of parents are bringing their kids home after school, with zero indication of alternate routes, is a shitty thing to do and a great way to piss off thousands of people! @sfmta.com : just keep the bike lanes open
The hearing is tmrw in SF criminal court (9am; 850 Bryant, dept. 24) The driver admitted trying to transfer assets (property) to NV and still hasn't explained why they were driving 70 mph on a residential street w/o trying to brake. Killed a whole family.

If you're old enough, as I am, you can remember how filthy the air was in this country before this took effect. That's what they want to return to, so they can have more money. That's it.
MIller’s enthusiasm for maximum cruelty and racism are hurting Trump. But since it helped him on the way to/back to power (and because Trump has always been deeply racist), it’ll be hard for Trump to be persuaded to dump him.
But…dare to dream.
76 to Rodeo Beach. (Stop was right by the restrooms)
Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.
If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.
