To save some of you the disappointment, first off, this guide is not intended for things like explosives or human kidneys. Far be it for me to favor one type of smuggling over another, but if you’re looking for help with either of those things, um, maybe you should instead

Some cars have very distinct personalities. For instance, if a Porche were to transform, Transformer-like, into a person, I imagine it would turn out to be an obnoxious Architecture major at Yale. Volkswagens, on the other hand, I picture as being like Diane Keaton in ‘œAnnie Hall’: bizarre and lovable,

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

Sometimes when I go to a new restaurant and try a type of food I know little about, like, say, Ethiopian, I get scared by all the weird-sounding dishes and just order THE most boring thing I can find. This is usually because I’m starving, and unwilling to risk further

There are only two more days of Shark Week left, which doesn’t seem right. Where did the time go?? If you spent half of it watching clips of ‘œStreet Sharks’ on YouTube because you don’t actually get basic cable, don’t worry. There are still plenty of ways to celebrate Shark

Unlike babies in bars, which people frown upon, it is sometimes okay to have dogs in bars. Especially at Luckydog, where dogs are given free rein to sit on the stools, run all around, lick your shoes, whatever. If you’re not a dog owner, this can, at first, be a little
