At an event in downtown SF about office occupancy and redevelopment. It’s July 2023. Can we please stop calling it “return to work?” People never stopped working. It’s “return to office.”

Lots of people (and a kid!) commuting and recreating by bike this AM and avoiding unnecessary car traffic. You love to see it. – at San Anselmo, CA

Had to fix this sketchy bike lane situation today on Andersen Drive in San Rafael while getting passed by trucks at 40+ mph. What’s the best way to get contractors in to not block the lane with signs? @JohnBauters I think you had an example?

This is absolutely sad, awful and terrifying all at the same time.

As far as I can tell, the Biden admin has done nothing to acknowledge, let alone mitigate, these risks of oversized electric cars. Yes, we need to shift away from gas-powered autos. But not in a way that compromises road safety and the environment alike. cnn.com/2023/04/12/politics/…

We aren’t serious about safe street design until we design and build streets to force drivers to go slower and completely separate bikes and peds from cars.

I'm on @GoldenGateFerry to SF and after 10+ minutes of trying to dock at the Ferry Building in SF, the Captain has decided we cannot safely dock and will return to Larkspur. People are getting seasick. I'd rather be safe than sorry. #cawx

Safely arrived in Larkspur. @GoldenGateFerry had a bus waiting for passengers wanting to go to SF. I elected to get an Uber home (thanks @TAM_MovingMarin for the Connect2Transit discount!) instead of going to SF.

For those following along, I missed the networking event I was headed to. I’m currently looking for my next work opportunity in sustainability and real estate. If you or someone you know needs help in that space, let me know! #ShamelessSelfPromo

With all due respect to the, "I've lived here for 50(+) years" folks, what about taking into account the needs of the folks who will live here for the next 50? Maybe(!) they have different wants needs and desires... Prob is, all those folks barely show up to public meetings.

YES. During a City of San Rafael Design Review Board meeting we got a comment referring to the "new world order" shoving housing density regulations down the throat of the board.

Someone keeps pointing the “Your Speed” sign away from traffic, making it useless. This is the second time I’ve fixed it. (Mind you this is a designated Safe Route to School and Bike Route)

And, it keeps happening. And I keep fixing it. Someone really doesn’t like this sign.

Why is it impossible for news media to use the proper current logo of subject companies? It happens all the time and annoys me to no end.
Twitter was the only tech platform that didn’t send a complete report to the EU detailing how it was tackling disinformation — a move that risks angering regulators trib.al/BaEE3Xl
