According to an ancient Milanese streetcar. What a difference a century makes.

I wonder how we’ll feel when we look back on this Prop 8 business a hundred years from now.

A short documentary about Sexpigeon

You know him, you love him: he’s Tag Savage of Sexpigeon. Lots of his early work was set in the Mission, and I for one am forever indebted to him for teaching me to see the world (and Tumblr) in new and exciting ways. (Also, he designed the Mission Mission logo and most of the custom graphics in the sidebar, and I think I’m still actually technically financially indebted to him for all of that. Thanks again, Taggo!)

Anyway, finally, somebody took the time to make a movie about him and his awesome blog. Be sure to stay tuned ’til the very end:

Suicide Girls signing books at Mission Comics and partying at Benders tonight!

If you’ve ever wanted to meet some Suicide Girls up close and personal, tonight’s your chance:

On Tuesday, March 26, 2013, some of your favorite SuicideGirls will be signing their hard cover photo book of tattooed pinup girls entitled Hard Girls, Soft Light at Mission Comics in San Francisco. Make sure to get to Mission Comics early because the first 25 people to have a copy of Hard Girls, Soft Light signed will receive a free yearlong membership to SuicideGirls.com.

After the book signing join local SuicideGirls as well as Rigel and Radeo for an official after party at Bender’s Bar where bartenders will be slinging a special SuicideGirls cocktail all night long. Interested in being a SuicideGirl? Introduce yourself to the SG model coordinator, Rigel Suicide, and show her what you are made of.

Check out all the details for the book signing here, and the afterparty here, and try not to be too much of a creep!

Monday morning in Dolores Park: A tale of two types of parkgoer

So, either some garbage elves cleaned up part of the park and neglected the other part, OR some people are fucking assholes and some people are not.

(Thanks, @Braccs.)

Just Frida being Frida.

I suppose this explains those colorful stencils we noticed earlier.

Does anyone else see a beer?

Maybe I’m just too thirsty/sober.
