RT @BikeBlogChris: @dto510 @davidcolburn Even drivers should support @WalkOakBikeOak - they get better roads too! #BikeOAK
I may adopt this bumper sticker as my new credo: "Wag more/Bark less." http://t.co/uXQh9UKf
Bonus photo of me tweeting: RT @northoaklandnow: Cmnty grps voice opposition to city’s bond debt deal w Goldman Sachs: http://t.co/YEY0KCIk
#OO on a roll: #F14 Love march, #F17 Pacific Steel march, #F20 prison protest, two #F21 antiforeclosure actions, #F21 "Stop the swap" event.
#OO on a roll: #F14 Love march, #F17 Pac Steel march, #F20 @ prisons, 2 #F21 foreclosure actions, #F21 "Stop the swap" action. All awesome.
ABC is reporting that the man shot and injured by OPD over the weekend was a cousin of Oscar Grant. Oy vey.
#OO folks are getting stayaway orders from the plaza. This OPD officer may need stayaway order from other human beings: http://t.co/c1G9AVqh
Glad to notice @AwakenCafe finally open in their new spot @ 1429 Broadway. Open till 10 pm, and midnight on Fri & Sat--unusual in that area.
That's me: "man" ;) RT @OakCityCouncil: Man said they should rename it and thinks its a good honor #oakmtg
Here's the front of a flyer regarding the Goldman Sachs "rate swap" deal. #oo #oakmtg http://t.co/FqdS8p5f
I was advised by @oaklandscene that I may not have time to get a drink before my turn to speak comes. Next time I'll bring a flask. #oakmtg
More than half the crowd at the city council #oakmtg have left, now that the action regarding the Goldman Sachs deal is over.
I wonder if the City Council is confused by the distinctions between "occupy oakland," "decolonize oakland," & "occupy the hood." #oakmtg
Sunshine ord. is being renamed for the late Sanjiv Handa, tireless advocate 4 open govt. Now it's up 2 rest of us 2 hold their feet to fire.
I'm actually here at the #oakmtg to praise the city council, not to bury them! I signed up to speak in favor of renaming Sunshine Ordinance.
It's not every day that I rally with @BootsRiley at a bank action, then join his father at a city council #oakmtg
The "drop the swap" action re Goldman Sachs is joint effort of #oo unions, black churches, and community groups. Glad to see it! #oakmtg
Neither Mayor @JeanQuan nor City Admin Deanna Santana in #oakmtg tonight. Sanrana.s deputy Scott Johnson is sitting in the City Admin chair.
Lots of people at #oakmtg with "drop the swap" signs here to protest Oakland's interest swap deal with Goldman Sachs
In case you haven't seen it, Oakland's premier yarnbomber has a blog: http://t.co/lKHnU9bT (Yarnbombing Occupy Oakland was pretty badass.)
There's almost nothing in the world which cheers me up like yarn-bombed bike racks. #bikeOAK #Oakland http://t.co/MQCz5abr
Flyer for Katie Mitchell. Neighbors (& #OO are helping get a loan modification so she won't be kicked out of her home. http://t.co/704yLyxN
Coalition of ppl including #OO interfaith folks will ask Oakland to end its deal w/ Goldman Sachs at tonight's #oakmtg http://t.co/MTak6f8u
Homs: "city hospitals are under the thumb of security forces, & their rooms...have been turned into torture chambers." http://t.co/y6kxChKQ
Guy explains 2 kid why my dog won't bite: "Don't worry, he's got a basketball in his hands." ("He" is a she & a tennis ball's in her mouth.)
You can learn a lot by listening to your friends, but you can learn more by listening to your enemies. #EvenWhenTheyAreCrazy #EchoChamber
I meant to bike to San Quentin for today's protest. Crawled back into bed at 9:30 am, slept for 4 hours. #BestLaidPlans #WorldsWorstActivist
About 21 miles each way from downtown SF to San Quentin. Protesting the prison-industrial complex by bike tomorrow might be good exercise!
The suspense is killing me!!! MT @KCBSNews: Caltrans expected to make "major announcement" in regards 2 construction on Bay Bridge @ 5 pm.
Does the SFChronicle support its columnists not-so-subtly urging vigilante gun violence against unruly protesters? WTF? http://t.co/2V5N1woH
"we have an us-against-them mentality. We don't treat the public with the respect they deserve." -- OPD Chief Jordan http://t.co/0JaQ33F3
One remarkable thing about Santana's emails is how reliant top city staff were on news reports (& reporters) for info about #OO Nuts.
Some interesting nuggets in Santana emails, but no major revelations, IMO. Mostly support city's narrative about their deliberations re #OO
The Santana emails @insidebayarea have big gap from late Sat 10/22 till after #OO raid on Tues 10/25. Anyone know why? http://t.co/QUOYO8k4
One interesting thing abt the released City Admin emails is the dog that doesn't bark: in 1300 pages, Quan is hardly ever mentioned. #oakmtg
City Admin Santana on 10/22, 3 days before 1st eviction of #OO "I feel like a train wreck is about to happen." (p. 1054) She got that right.
Spending this Friday night reading through City Admin Santana's emails from late October: http://t.co/QUOYO8k4 #OccupyNerd #OO
Murky story, but supports genrl impression that Oakland govt is a fiasco: MT @demianbulwa: FBI joins teen center probe http://t.co/2WSRJNpN
I look forward to drowning in a flood of articles & tweets this weekend about the Bay Bridge closure. #Not #BikeBloc #WhyCrossTheBayAnyway
Glad ABC's on the case: MT @abc7newsBayArea: Man wearing noth. but socks arrestd @ Walmart & whole incidnt cght on camera. @6abc reports...
