Bush Bike

I’m not sure whether this was an art piece or just a guy hauling produce, but it was the highlight of my Sunday Streets. Except for the Ferocious Few show of course.

Flat Rat Says Hi

I found myself mesmerized by the smushed rat my friend Heather pointed out in front of my house.  I think it’s the way he’s managed to say goodbye to the world with his one final act.  See you later, little guy.

At the risk of moving up several notches on the vegansaurus death list, more (close-up) photos of the poor little dude after the jump . . .

17th & Valencia Art Wall Moved Inside!

Valencia Art Wall Moved Inside

We previously linked to Mr. Eric Sir’s post about the street art put up on this boarded up storefront. Well, now the owners of the building (I assume) took down the plywood and OSB from the front of their store, but seemed interested in saving the art put up on the wall, selecting key pieces and setting them up just inside the windows. Vandalism becomes window display!

Sorry, MacGruber ads, but the street art stays. “This movie’s about to bomb! Quick, hand me the wheatpaste!”

Andy over at SF Weekly is apparently a pretty great cartoonist. Her brand-new Dolores Park Bingo will be a fun way to pass the time tomorrow afternoon (even if a tad too easy).

Ironic Car

I can’t tell if this Smart Car was tagged or decorated.

Kombucha FULL OF ALCOHOL: Bummer or Blessing?

Kombucha is full of alcohol? No wonder I drank so much kombucha during those three months when I quit drinking! I better return that medallion they gave me. Eater SF has the scoop.

Anyway, are we pumped or harumphed?
