With wildfire season approaching, preparation is key. Piedmont Fire Chief Dave Brannigan stopped by the @KTVU studio this morning to share practical tips on making your yard more fire-safe.

Thank you @KTVU @andresenior for having us on this morning to talk about the many benefits of sports for girls and Sunday's 2nd annual #PlayLikeAGirlPiedmont event!

@jwalshie @GeorgeM33593881 @PetruSofio That beacon has been a complete game changer! Always uses to walk up or down to get to a light to feel safe, now I cross there all the time. Extremely rare in my experience for a car to not stop when beacon is flashing.

Very embarrassing to see organisations happily posting about the accessibility overlays they have on their websites today, on #GAAD

More on why you should avoid adding an accessibility overlay to your site here: https://t.co/sYFKtG4Nil

@geekeasy @marcwest @DarwinBondGraha @DCisChillin @susannebreen I'm unclear what makes a wine bar not "culturally appropriate" for downtown Oakland.

Would it be better to have a vacant storefront, as was there previously? Or a chain coffeeshop, which we had for years before that? Or maybe yet another EXTREMELY LOUD bar with $18 cocktails?

[Echa @echaschneider]

@geekeasy @marcwest @DarwinBondGraha @DCisChillin @susannebreen Would you prefer that storefront be empty, as it was for 2 years before Downtown Wine Merchants opened? As a 20+ year dto resident, I love that spot. Quality, affordable wines and wonderful staff!

Spent several years working to bring the vision of an accessible, user-oriented website for Berkeley to reality. Absolutely overjoyed to see it live! 🥳

Psst … we’ve been working on something.

@jamiattenberg Because it has a window! The sky is pretty and when else do you ever get to see cities and landscapes from above?

@veg_sunshine Honestly feel conflicted about it but I own and occasionally wear a pearl necklace that I was gifted long before becoming vegan and has sentimental value. I would def not buy pearls today.

Every time I tweet about this I get people in mentions saying “but we don’t take precautions for the flu!”

Those people are 100% WRONG!

Thousands of people work daily to monitor, prepare for, & respond to fluctuations in flu number and in the flu virus itself! It’s a HUGE task!
