Mission Mission

Mission and Highland, as requested, has just followed up on yesterday’s trash-tipping tale. It takes a crane, ladies and gentlemen, to hoist a tipped San Francisco trashcan out of the gutter. It takes a crane.

Kudos to the City of SF for a job well done in a timely fashion.

They might be bringing water grenades!

Could this be the art for Weezer’s mellower followup to Raditude or what?

More importantly, this is my second animal post of the day. What is wrong with me?

Reader James read the story about an undercover police officer allegedly saying, “Shut your fucking mouth bitch or I’ll knock you off your bike,” to a female cyclist, and responded thusly:

wow. just another reason to always carry a gun when you ride.

What, like G Baby here? It’s cute for a second, and then it’s like WESTERN CIVILIZATION IS CRUMBLING THE HORRORRRRRR!!

We hope James is joking, but wouldn’t be surprised if he is not. So fess up, anonymously or otherwise: Who’s packing heat in the bike lane?

Has anyone ever done this? What does it take, an automobile? A tractor? Or could a couple of neighborhood muscleheads get ‘er done if bored enough?

And does the city have to dispatch a backhoe to steady ‘er up again? Hopefully Mission and Highland (publisher of this here photo) will follow up toot sweet.

Original Trash Tipping

In the comments section of our post about Dolores Park flunking playground school, reader Laurie says:

To be fair, A-grade Mission Playground, an excellent place that we adore, can be rough around the edges. In the last week there’s been parents picking up broken glass from the asphalt walkway within the fenced-in children’s playground. And within the fenced-in Valencia Street hardscape, small kids played with broken bottles, watching them shatter to smithereens.

So, kids will be kids? Colorful neighborhoods will be colorful neighborhoods?

Anybody need a rad tattoo such as this? Perhaps artist Jen Oaks can help you out.

There’s no funner blog post to read than a Sleepover blog post (because they are a revolutionary design firm intent on making the experience of reading things on the internet less plain and more COMPLETELY JOYOUS).

In today’s post, we learn how to get our own portraits drawn in Tag Savage’s signature Sleepover style (pictured). Even if you’re not interested in getting a portrait drawn, it’s a great read. Read it!

With 22 days left, Mission Street Food hit their $10,000 investment goal. Looks like their full-time charitable restaurant is going to become a reality! Congrats to Anthony Myint.

The $10,00 goes to their initial equipment purchases, but they could still use more support and you can still donate through kickstarter. Your donation goes towards a gift certificate at the restaurant when it opens.
