Wish someone would run on making these expenses part of all budget discussions, and curb payments that don't hold someone accountable... #NotHoldingMyBreath

It is definitely part of Oakland's character that we take pride in who we are, yet always keep an eye on the forces against us...
Sad but true

Thousands filled Oakland’s downtown as part of the annual Pride festival this past weekend.

Attendees waved colorful flags and danced in celebration of the queer community — even as the Trump administration looks to erode LGBTQ rights.

Oakland's an incredible sports town. The pride's palpable, even when teams don't return that respect.
But for those that do, we're quick to show our love.

My wife & I were out for ice cream in Temescal, then joined the Telegraph stroll when we came across this new mural. Daymn

#365DaysInOakland Bonsai garden

There was a story on the radio this week, reminding me of yet another local treasure...
Randomly walked up to the Oakland bonsai garden and nerded out on bonsai history. Oakland feels like a small town in a good way - it’s more like traditional Main Street America than most places ❤️

#365DaysInOakland - BALLERS!

I'm no sports guy, but it's hard to resist the joy this team is bringing to our community.

Rolling on the 880 connector to 80, I always smile seeing the sign for their field
Just happen to have taken a photo of 1253 in service. Look forward to seeing it at Raimondi!

Wilson Riles Jr., R.I.P. sir
Great to finally see an obituary for Wilson Riles Jr. It's unbelievable that no local dailies published one, and I have to wonder if that's the impact of being completely under the thrall of OPOA. It's horrifying if that's the case.
Remembering Wilson Riles Jr., who connected local and global struggles for peace and justice
The former city councilmember and activist for racial justice, nuclear disarmament, and economic rights most recently gave back to Oakland as a police commissioner.

Oakland DOT is about to let us weigh in on this for the Foothill corridor west of Fruitvale.

I hope lots of us sign up to comment
Imagine living in a country where our transportation leaders *actually cared* about the kids and seniors getting run over by cars.
Japan just made its streets safer overnight! Following Spain and Wales, the country just slashed the speed limit on more than two thirds of its streets, from 60 km/h to 30 km/h.

You can tell a lot about folks if they describe something as the 'Berkeley Hills' even when what they're talking about is actually Oakland.
It's as if their brain automatically filters anything good away to somewhere else...

Anyway this is happening in the Oakland hills right now
