I Can Haz Ur Old Towelz?

SF Animal Care and Control is in the midst of some kind of towel shortage, and you can help! Vegansaurus explains:

If you have any extra towels laying around, please bring them to SFACC (1200 15th Street at Harrison). They’re open from 11 am to 6 pm everyday, and until 7 pm on Wednesdays (that’s TODAY!). They don’t care if the towels are frayed or stained, as long as they’re clean!

Read on.

Daredevil Bikes Across Bay Bridge

This is about a year old. Sorry about the delay, but better late than never, right?

These Burritos Are the Worst

I get it. Sometimes it’s tough to trudge that extra couple blocks. Sometimes you just need a burrito in your face NOW.

Fun With Abuse

Mission Local just made its first foray into comedy. It’s a little overlong, but I give them props for trying to find humor in some pretty dark subject matter. Watch it now.

Girls and Wild Animals [NSFW]

Girls and wild animals are just two facets of photographer Ryan McGinley’s many-faceted new show, on now at Ratio 3. Also addressed are boys, forests, fireworks, train tracks, domesticated animals, and other stuff too probably. The show closes this coming Saturday, so get it while you can.

Pabst Ferret

“Oh why oh why the PBR?” moans a comment on this new work by Hayley Cassatt, ”Seems a little low-brow for such a sleek & elegant animal!”

I say that comment seems a little snooty for such a punk rock blog. PABST FERRET!

 

Loko Tower

This is a still from a new film by Talent Is An Asset. You will want to watch the whole thing. The soundtrack is great too.

Check it out.

Own a Piece of Sexpigeon History: Hands Down the Best Muni T-Shirts Ever Produced

When Sexpigeon split for New York City, he left behind a huge box of rad Muni t-shirts, which somehow found its way into Mission Mission headquarters.

We thought long and hard about what to do with this treasure, and decided to put them up for sale tomorrow at the Noise Pop Holiday Shop. They come in youth large, small, medium and large, and they are rad.

Imagine… You could wipe out all your holiday shopping in one purchase: a 22 for Dad, a 38 for Mom, a 24 for Little Sis. Or maybe one of each just for you. Or 38s for the whole family, Gramps included. Oh, the possibilities! See you tomorrow!

Potato Bug Invasion!

Holy smokes, that’s like something out of Alien Vs. Predator! And Bernalwood says they’re all up in Bernal every winter! Holy smokes!

I hope they don’t venture down the hill.

Swing Pup

Just look at him!

We should probably all go adopt an animal right now.

Biographical Info:

"I joked that living in the Mission would be the end of me. And there were nights where it felt like the case.

One night I went out with my friend Allan to the bar that no one goes to on 16th Street, where I lost half my drink and money on the dance floor. Later we skated down 16th to Evelyn Lee, where I fell off my board and landed on my head as the 22 bus sped past behind me. A sobering moment. At the bar, I sulked and nursed my wounds until Allan put on Amy Winehouse’s 'Valerie.' We danced, he dipped me, and I felt better."
