@Kirby4Heroes He created the whole thing!

My grandfather, Jack Kirby. Let's talk about the origins of the MCU!

Thanks to @POTUS @JoeBiden, we now have an unemployment rate lower than Trump's, an inflation rate lower than Reagan's, and a NATO alliance more united than ever in world history. He has achieved all of this despite a daily onslaught against him and his family and with a press that flatly refuses to cover anything remotely positive happening in our country. He never whines or complains; he just wakes up every day and does his job with honor, character, and competence. And you know what? This is exactly why I can't wait to vote for him again next November. #BidenHarris2024 #finishthejob

@prinzrob @RapidRevolt I would never ride my bicycle along international or Fruitvale. Don’t get me wrong I would like to, but it’s just so dangerous with so many out of control drivers who are completely contemptuous of others, rights to be on the road

Another fatal hit-run crash in Oakland this morning at International and 29th Ave. It’s so devastating, these tragedies just keep coming. ktvu.com/news/bicyclist… @RapidRevolt

@BootsRiley I can reply tweets today. But it seems like there are many days when the reply option is not available to me.

Anybody else having a problem with Twitter not letting you reply to people?

@RebeccaForBART Go BART! Planning to take the train from Fruitvale to Lake Merritt Station when I start working in my new office over the next few weeks

This week I’ve ridden BART 4 days in a row, one of the few times I’ve done this since 2020. New train or old, crowded or less full, rain or shine, BART’s gotten me where I needed to go, on time. Feeling grateful and also urgency to save transit from the coming fiscal cliff.

@fruitvalelocal COVID seems to have damaged many people psyches.

The topic of discussion even in casual conversation is how freaking crazy people are today. On the news, in viral videos, screaming, throwing stuff, fighting. It's like an evil Genie has been let out of a bottle.

@fineplanner Someone tried to hack my AT&T acct

In the last 24 hours, I’ve heard of colleagues’ store-based credit accounts hacked, their phone bill account hacked, attempts to open credit cards in their name in other states, and fraudulent charges on their spouse’s credit card. Anyone celebrating this is an absolute ghoul.

@hyphy_republic @Tyska @Oakland K-Rails

@Tyska @Oakland city would use concrete thingies

I guess this is one way to stop people from parking/living on the streets of West Oakland. Huge tree trunks on W. Grand Ave. and multiple other streets. Guessing this was done by the city of @oakland? Nature-like out there now. #westoakland #homeless

@hyphy_republic Party store to neighbor a block above us 25 minutes ago, our power here on Coolidge Avenue above East 23rd came on about five minutes ago

People finally stopping at lights in East Oakland 😂

@ChroniclesOfAzu Power’s been out here in Fruitvale- Patten neighborhood since 1 pm

Oakland peeps: is your power out? PG&E’s outage map is showing a significant portion of Oakland currently out.

@hyphy_republic Power’s been out here in the Fruitvale - Patten area since 1 pm

Pretty big power outage in East Oakland

@hyphy_republic I find that reading or listening to some good old school music with earphones on usually Results in a good night sleep

I thought running every day would tire me out and make me go to sleep early, but now I'm wired way into the night. What the hell.

@hyphy_republic I always feel more awake on the days when I play tennis.

@BKpub May his memory be a blessing to those who knew him

"Few people have approached the scope of contribution that Edgard Schein had to our understanding of organizations and people’s behavior and development in social systems," BK Founder Steve Piersanti said. We send our most heartfelt condolences to Ed's family.

@chrsdcook Nonprofits are doing the work that government should be doing but don’t for so many different reasons

The neoliberal mods' fixation on nonprofits is profoundly misplaced. There may be some corruption, some abuses to fix. But to pretend that this is the source of our crises is utterly bizarre--it's a distraction from our insane inequality, extreme wealth and poverty. #SanFrancisco

@peterlupoff Honestly just don’t understand why debt limit wasn’t raised during the lame duck session that ended a few weeks ago. It was our last best & sane way to deal with the situation

Given the divisiveness & dysfunction in congress, they might really fk up extending the #debtceiling. Recall this is only approving the US paying debts it ALREADY owes. Think #inflation is bad now? If these fools botch this, US cost of borrowing goes up, the US$ down.

@peterlupoff Might be time to mint that $1 trillion coin that I keep hearing about

@hyphy_republic @ThatBootlegGuy Coffee should be paired w/ chocolate

@ThatBootlegGuy juicy things should not be paired with chocolate. That's chocolate 101

One of you found my old San Diego Fair food review of the chocolate-dipped pickle. Hypocrisy, you accuse? LOL, like the GOP, I have no shame, I retort.

@MayorShengThao Big clean-up event at Peralta Hacienda Historical Park on MLK Day!

This coming Monday, January 16th is #MLKDayofService and I hope YOU will join me and thousands of Oaklanders by giving back to your community. You can sign up for your local volunteer event or register your own at: oaklandca.gov/topics/mlk-day… See you then! #OaklandLoveLife

@hyphy_republic That guy Should be arrested and charged with assault

Other people exist, Dion, and you can't make them do what you want. "they really ticked me off" is every violent person's excuse for violence, there's nothing to be learned by this explanation.
