Mission Mission

Hidden Host introduced a new feature today titled “Teen Talk.” In it, we learn what topics are hot among teens on the bus. A selection:

Your cousin’s skin is beautiful.  You think it’s because they are “mixed”.

Your soda is flat.

An inquiry into whether or not your cousin got tickets to a much sought-after show.

Read on.

Gold in peace, iron in war? No longer! “San Francisco. Not smug. Just better.”

SFist has the scoop.

Arlen broke the news and then followed up with the conclusion.

What’s up, La Lengua? Everybody okay? Johnny0, you okay?

Our pal Sarah Kelly and her organization Adapting to Scarcity spent part of last year hanging out in La Huizachera (outside of Guadalajara, MX) with kids like Mauro here, taking pictures and making videos. Tonight, some of their work is showcased at ATA:

These children live along a polluted canal that carries untreated human and industrial waste away from Guadalajara. The state of the canal deeply affects the health of the community. IMDEC, the Mexican Institute for Community Development, has been working weekly with the children in the community to educate them about the environment. They gave digital point-and-shoot cameras to the kids, taught them to use them and have been helping them capture their perspectives and their neighborhood.  The phenomenal and moving photos were shot, selected and titled by the children.

The fun runs from 7-10pm.

This party is located somewhere around 18th and Florida. We might all be invited since we too are members of the biological order Primates.

My Lucky Number’s One saw these somewhere yesterday. They’re a mite more ornate than last year’s San Carlos Street Light Buttons, which were also spotted in April. Would you call this new specimen Art Deco? Art Deco Light Buttons? Is this phenomenon confined to early spring?

It’s time for the Mission Mission Facebook Wall comment of the day! Today’s comes courtesy of Mission Mission super fan Ryan Christopher Parks (pictured) in response to this morning’s post about Anchor Steam:

Anchor Steam tastes like shit. It’s all about drinking a shit ton of Racer 5 and screaming while pissing on a wall.

Ryan is a musician of some kind btw, and he is playing at Dalva tonight some time between 7 and 10 if you want to stop by and buy him an Anchor Steam or something.

Some friend of The Tens (not pictured) says Anchor Steam tastes like earwax.

At first I was like NO WAY, but then I was like MAYBE, and finally I was like SO WHAT, A LOT OF PEOPLE LIKE THE TASTE OF EARWAX.

Is it true? Anchor Steam sure tastes like somethin’ or other. What is it exactly if not earwax?

OMG the Mish stumbled onto this scene on Sunday.

Are you disturbed? I’m kind of disturbed, although, even though I’m a vegetarian, I’ll try anything once. I’d try some lion.

I mean, at least it’s not smorked.
