Beer and Fitness: Heavy Metal Aerobics at Workshop
I know Monica raved about Workshop back in October (Full Disclosure: We’re all great friends!), but I’ve never actually been to one of Kelly Malone’s DIY classes even though I live two blocks away and walk by all the time just so I can look longingly through the window at
Upgrade Your Comfort Foods: Cereal is for Stoners
I’ve probably had more bowls of cereal in my life than any other meal. (If you consider it a meal, even.) But this isn’t because my mom didn’t love me enough to get me toaster strudel when I was a kid. Actually, I think I really tipped the scale around
This New Literary Magazine is a Gift to the People of San Francisco
I’ve got some awesome news! We received a grant from the Civic Joy Fund to put out a literary magazine celebrating SF and acting to counter the stupid “Doom Loop” narrative. It’s a gift to the people of San Francisco. And after months of working on this project it’s now available

First Oakland needed a new t-shirt, now it’s Three Twins Ice Cream that’s looking for your fashion instincts and/or graphic design skills. All you’ve got to do is email your design to threetwinstees@gmail.com and make sure it’s got the Three Twins name or logo in it. If you’re the talented
FREE Surf Films and Pizza at The Riptide
It’s probably pretty hard to be broke if you live all the way in the Outer Sunset because those cab fares can’t be cheap. But like any decent neighborhood it must have its share of cheap neighborhood bars, otherwise people wouldn’t live there, right? The Riptide must be pretty rad
Upgrade Your Comfort Foods Part 3: Gourmet Mac and Cheese
Mac & Cheese will forever be a Broke-Ass staple food. Unlike the Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich, you can kind of pretend a big bowl of mac & cheese is a real, grownup dinner instead of a lunch item all the other kids at your lunch table would make fun
