A worker from Berkeley's Urban Ore has opened a museum celebrating … wingnuts

Started by employees of the salvage store during a union drive, the Wingnut Museum — honoring both the tiny metal doodads and the “freaks and weirdos” of the world — now has a permanent Berkeley home.

“I want to take a moment to acknowledge the freaks, the weirdos, the unhinged leftists, the coffee shop punishers, the people carrying too many things on their bicycles,” he said. “I hope this museum can continue to be a tribute to the wingnuts that came before us, the wingnuts of tomorrow, and most of all, the wingnuts that we are today.”
