Mission Mission

Some news from our pal Lizzy (who recently left California, incidentally):

I was just in a coffee shop with a lot of succulents and salvaged wood, serving Stumptown Coffee, and overheard someone saying “what I’ve heard is, if you leave California, you have to get used to not being special anymore.” [link]

Yup. Guess I won’t leave.

A.) Ashleyanne is the best, B.) This seems like a chill opportunity to check out Slate and suss out whether or not it will truly be “The Mission’s newest hangout…” Here’s some info:

But seriously, Lyft, whatcha gonna do?

The RPS gals are popping up at the Ace Hotel in Portland tonight as part of the Bold Rush:

We’ll have American Tripps’ Berlin-style ping-pong for folks to play with music from DJ Identical Twin of M’Lady’s Records spinning lots of soul and dance tunes. Rice Paper Scissors will be on hand to feed the crowd with two types of Vietnamese Bo Bia (spring rolls).

Three types, actually: vegan, veggie and sausage-and-egg. And the party is free! Invite your friends (or RSVP)!

Yum!

Just a little update on those cute kittens from yesterday. Adopt them already!

Same here. How bout you?

If that poster doesn’t already have you frothing at the mouth for a Saturday night of classic electronic dance music, this month’s edition of the Haçeteria Podcast sounds like it might do the trick:

Haceteria DJs Tristes Tropiques and Nihar sat down with Marc Kate and talked to him about his project Never Knows, as well as meditations on technology, nightlife, and dance music. We cover everything from proto-techno to post-techno. Never Knows performs live at Haceteria on Saturday, October 6 at the Deco Lounge in San Francisco.

Here it is:

Alright? Now RSVP and invite you friends!

We generally don’t delve into politics much (except for sometimes, and other times), but Rachel from 500 Club just got in touch:

The 500 Club will be showing all the debates again this year. We have better tv’s with better sound – three in the front of the bar and one rather large one in the back room. We also have delicious foods from Clare’s Deli next door..altho delivery might be a little tricky if we get a full house again.

We also talked to Paul at Shotwell’s and he mentioned they’ll be screening the events as well. Anywhere else?
