From @schuyler: A CS grenade, and two 12 ga shotgun shells purportedly used by the police to propel the beanbag bullets. #OccupyOakland
Meanwhile, police are reporting that they didn’t use any method like this at Occupy Oakland.
Please keep Oakland in your thoughts.
Andy and I saw Moneyball for free last night, and it was surprisingly good. It definitely made me miss Oakland, which was unexpected.
But my favorite part was the woman next to me who obviously had no clue how the A’s season ended that year, with her gasps and “oh no!”s. She really thouught the A’s were gonna win it all in some big tear-inducing Hollywood ending.
Oakland is a long way from Hollywood.

This sounds so good! And makes me miss home.
Everybody Needs A Hobby of the Day: 35 years in the making, Scott Weaver’s 100,000 toothpick-strong multi-track marble run “tour” of San Francisco is a sight to behold.
In fact, it will be on display at the Tinkering Studio through May 31 if you’d like to check it out in person which you clearly should.

This is AMAZING and makes me miss home. Which is not to say that I was born in a house of toothpicks.
A lot. Do locals say “the BART” or just “BART?” How do I be not a loser?
Tip off to knowing you’re not actually a Bay Area resident? The fact that you have anything remotely positive to say about BART.
Ding ding. But yeah, call it BART.
