Watched Bay FC (hometown NWSL women's football soccer club) fight the good fight this afternoon but they came up short against the visiting Chicago Stars
lots of what appears as dying seaweed at rodeo beach this morning. i don’t think i’ve seen it like this before, but could be seasonal i guess.
all along the lower watermark
Still for Bay Area peeps, more regarding Cal Academy, from a good friend of mine.
To be clear: I love Cal Academy, it's probably my favorite natural history museum, I like it better than Chicago's Field Museum, when people visit from out of town I try to drag them there, I support them, and to learn about this turn of events is upsetting, even more upsetting than Claude the albino alligator passing away.
here's what my friend said when I asked, "what should I post to Mastodon?"
------
If you go to the Academy, if you are a member, or enjoy nightlife, then I ask that you take the time to visit the new exhibit, and that you let the Academy know what you think.
The new traveling exhibition has an exit area that includes specimens, hands-on interactives, and Academy science. That space was curated, written, designed, prototyped, and built by Academy creatives.
If you enjoy spaces like the exit area, with its hands-on explorations, invitation to curiosity, and science stories, then please share your thoughts with the board. Tell them you that you want to see home-grown exhibits, built by embedded creative staff who can tell Academy scientist's stories. Tell them you love our planetarium shows. Tell them you love Hidden Wonders, State of Nature, or Twilight Zone. Tell them that leased video-only shows are fun, but they are not worth the price of admission on their own. Tell them what you expect to see from a world class natural history museum.
Tell them replacing staff with AI is incompatible with the Academy's mission. Tell them that cutting individual contributors, storytellers, artists, before cutting executive salaries is wrong.

You won't find any #SROP presence at the Bay Area Book Festival because we're still in hiding. But you can probably find lots of cool indie authors, publishers, and booksellers there. Check it out! Don't be shy!

If you cycle in San Jose, you should get active now. This is proposed but not final yet.
The same corporations that pay little in taxes and lobby to pay even less want to abuse the things taxes pay for.

Not particularly enjoying this windy weather in the East Bay. Got so much dirt in my eyes biking home yesterday and am worried about things getting set on fire, ugh.
