UC Berkeley students sad about missing commencement built a beautiful replica of the campus on Minecraft, and it's so good that the Chancellor and other speakers have endorsed it and are going to join the ceremony at 2pm Pacific. Plus a massive 2-day music festival with a huge lineup starting today at 4pm Pacific! Both on MInecraft and also streaming on Twitch

And here is Day 2 of the UC Blockeley music festival - some really great performers!

Here's day 1 of the UC Blockeley music festival lineup (on Minecraft and Twitch) 4 pm Pacific

Welp, my local supermarket fell victim to the toilet paper hordes last night apparently #coronavirus

Happy Birthday to the most welcoming social network on the internet! #CosoAnniversary #CosoBirthday

I'm reading that this fire is under control right now (I hope), but this picture of the fire in Vallejo CA is terrifying. For those who don't know Bay Area geography, this is *not* out in the wilderness! Pic screencapped from Twitter:

The Kincaid Fire in Sonoma is really something else - evacuation map shows a HUGE area, and it's 10% contained as of now. Link to source here: https://sonomacounty.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=2cb4401e1fc0494dbf9d9e22aa794617

Here we go again, Bay Area! Here is a map of approximate PG&E shutdown areas starting tomorrow (orange = shut off). Alameda County says it is scheduled to be affected around 5pm, not sure about other counties

Wheeee! I sure felt that one #earthquake

Came across this cute mini art installation on a sidewalk tree stump this morning, and apparently the artist has left quite a few more around #foundontelegraph #cosoart foundontelegraph.com

For anyone in the Bay Area who may need it, here is a list from PG&E about community centers they are opening tomorrow for people affected by the power shutoff. Only open during daylight hours though! #bayarea #pgeshutdown #emergencyprep

PG&E's website is erratic, but someone on the Birdsite managed to snag a map of the planned power shutoff for the Bay Area...OMFG! And they say it might last several days?

A fun event! Only $5 for a ticket, so I got to experience one of the fancy seats that I could never afford in a million years for an actual game. Now I can say I've seen Curry hit a few 3s from virtually courtside...back to nosebleed for the games though! #nba #warriors

On my way to this event soon - looking forward to checking out the shiny new arena! #nba #warriors

The best part of a Sunday morning...that first mug of coffee! #caffeineclub

Goodness! The @Stonekettle effect is something to behold:
