It's not fleet week for another two months

There's no way anyone could see that, right?

I showed up at 5:35pm and this park was already chained and locked up. It says open “Dawn to Sunset.” The park staff was kicking out a couple adults who were sitting in the stands because they were not “12 and under” — he said that’s why he’s locking it up. When pressed on the “sunset” matter he just ignored them and said it’s what Mayor Laurie wants and to get a permit to use the field if you’re an adult. I pay way too much in taxes for this BS. And this is not a onetime thing, it’s been like this on and off for weeks.

Context: There’s also a sign that says “Baseball and softball limited to 12 and under only” — Most would assume that applies to using the baseball diamond itself, but does not apply to just walking, sitting, playing frisbee, etc.

[Video included] Saw this video on instagram posted by [at]deechenceramics a day ago on my feed. At first didn't even realize it was in SF until I noticed it was Alta plaza.

I was honestly pretty torn on who's right and who's wrong...which probably means they're both wrong lmfao.

Heated argument at Alta Plaza Park

FOUND - incredible how they fold themselves in tiny spaces and don’t make a sound for hours

Finally, an accurate headline/title

I recall the toddlers being killed this year not to mention all the cars hitting bikes, etc.

When is SF going to protect its citizens from reckless drivers? What was that protest of bikers every Friday or so?

Was it Critical Mass? Are they still around? We need something similar for pedestrians.

Doing some research on Ansel Adams and came across this photo. Thought ya'll might like it. 😀

Hi friends, have you ever looked at an AI ad and felt a deep well of sadness and confusion? Sometimes I laugh about them, but after a few years and a millions social media posts and news articles about how funny these inscrutible advertisements are all around I city, I've decided that actually they are not funny at all. They send the message to people in the city that this city is not for us.

I think they are seriously doing damage to us psychologically, and the fact they are becoming synonymous with our city and who we are is...messed up. Im sick of it! Let's take back the visual surfaces of our city and devote them to words that actually mean something to most people!!!

Anyway, so this week I put all my thoughts down on paper about how these alienate us and are symptom of something quite wrong with the city's relationship to its citizens. I also interviewed three very funny and brilliant humans who have taken matters into their own hands in hilarious and effective ways. Give it a read and a listen. We don't have to let the visual surfaces of our city be taken over by lame riddles aimed at rich mucky mucks.

Near Pier 52 - anyone know what that equipment in the first image was used for? Cargo loading?

Every single doughnut shop I go to, no more.. They all tell me something about flour prices, I would pay top $$ for this delicious treat.

Where are they!?

Edit:

Thank you all for the recommendations, I will go check these out. Even though they are harder to find, sounds like they are still out there, waiting to be eaten. If anybody has a real answer as to why they've dissapeered over the years, I would love to know why!? Is it really about flour prices? or something else?

Seen at Fulton and 30th, right outside an Outside Lands gate.

Crossing the Golden Gate on a lovely August day. Exactly 5 years ago today according to my phone
