The Darker Side of Pride

The days leading up to Pride weekend were like the drawback of a tidal wave (Pridal wave?). In preparation, we cut two industrial-sized buckets of limes, around three days’ worth. We stacked boxes on boxes of beer and seltzer in the walk-in, evacuating our supplies to higher ground. By Thursday night, we were ready. A coworker and I earned the privilege of clocking out early.

Here’s Three Things to Do in SF With All This Gorgeous Weather

It’s as rare as pulling a foil Charizard in your trading card pack, as Bill Murray waking up and finding it’s not the same day as yesterday. It’s like finding your ex’s Netflix password still works after all this time. It’s surprising warm, sunny, almost hot weather in San Francisco. And

Big Pro-Palestinian Protest Planned at Biden’s San Francisco Fundraiser

The whole world is watching in horror as Israel’s far right government prepares to send the Israeli military into Rafah. It is guaranteed to be another bloodbath of annihilation that will kill thousands of civilians. I don’t know how Netanyahu and his ghouls think destroying Gaza won’t also kill the
