Note that fighter jets usually cannot be seen with Flightradar, but ADSB Exchange tends to show them. I'm not fluent enough in that world to know enough though.

And at least two of them.

Probably related to Cal game. Jet was dilly-dallying to the east and then did a pretty straight line near the Cal Stadium

Some SF BART stations has elevators with windows so you can watch the train depart as your elevator slowly moves up to the station level.

The whole train just emptied. I decided to ride down to bayfair station instead of San Francisco + ride my bike home.

Sounds like one of the passengers fled, and there was a second car (a white BMW) that fled away down MLK.

Ironic: As I sat down to write this, I realized that I had pizza in the oven. 20 minutes ago I asked Google Home to set an alarm To check on the pizza. It didn't go off.

Google Home says: "I have no alarms." What are you talking about, crazy human.

5 minute later, the alarm goes off.
