I have decided to just pretend I'm living in 19th century London now

Οὖτις, Thursday, 15 November 2018 22:51 (five years ago) link

I'm gonna be out there next week so I can experience this wonderful air you have. Would love any recommendations anyone has. Would also be down for a meetup if folks can pull themselves away from Thanksgiving festivities.

Recommendations: stay inside. (Like, go to museums.)

Meetup: maybe but I suspect I'll be hunkering down myself after running errands Saturday morning. Honestly will have to see what the weather's like.

sarahell, Friday, 16 November 2018 22:59 (five years ago) link

I think the fact that a Latino family dispute led to the eviction is relevant. It's not like Cinderella Bakery are vultures flipping properties and evicting families, it's like Call 24's only objection is based on the owners' ethnicity, which is lame.

Οὖτις, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 00:26 (five years ago) link

Mm. Guess we'll have to see.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 28 November 2018 00:28 (five years ago) link

thanks for the update shakey - i would have loved to see this go another way but per discussion upthread i can't say i'm surprised

Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Wednesday, 28 November 2018 05:56 (five years ago) link

also have any of these people that are going to picket it actually eaten at Cinderella Bakery becuz it is *delicious*

Retweet and help figure out who these drunk #santacon partiers are, they assaulted an employee and trashed my favorite Pakistani restaurant in #SF after they were asked to leave for loitering on Saturday night pic.twitter.com/RiknV1v8Mv

hadn't thought about Tom Guido in awhile, I must say

Οὖτις, Thursday, 13 December 2018 18:41 (five years ago) link

Not too shabby! Any old timers remember the place in the Bayview that was a strip club called the Pirate's Booty or something similar?

Our company orders catered lunch once a week, but throws out the leftovers after a day. I'm trying to propose something a bit more sensible and found this: http://www.foodrunners.org/donate-food/

OTOH this sounds good, but on the other, I see the same homeless people outside the building every day, and sending the food through a middleman seems kinda circuitous? Anyone else have thoughts?

Siouxie Sioux Vide (Leee), Tuesday, 18 December 2018 23:28 (five years ago) link

just do it yourself? idk

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 18 December 2018 23:39 (five years ago) link

Yah thats total bs if they are throwing out a significant amount of food. I'd complain to facilities and make them do something about it.

kurt schwitterz, Tuesday, 18 December 2018 23:53 (five years ago) link

I've thought about just passing out the food myself but I'm sort of worried about logistics, and I don't want my own prejudices to bias who gets a share and not.

Siouxie Sioux Vide (Leee), Wednesday, 19 December 2018 00:05 (five years ago) link

can vouch for foodrunners being awesome. may be a middleman, but they know what they're doing wrt food hygiene standards and nobody in your company has to worry about an foodborne liability

did anyone else see the meteor last night?! that was fucking crazy

Οὖτις, Thursday, 20 December 2018 16:42 (five years ago) link

Saw the vapor trail afterward -- crazy indeed!

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 20 December 2018 16:47 (five years ago) link

I was driving east at the time and was like wtf why is that cloud glowing, I couldn't figure it out

Οὖτις, Thursday, 20 December 2018 16:50 (five years ago) link

On the off-chance that anyone is in town tonight and wants to see this show (which is sold out), or knows anyone who wants to see this show, plz let me know and I will happily sell my tix! webmail me. Tix were $60 apiece.

Οὖτις, Saturday, 29 December 2018 16:43 (five years ago) link

Οὖτις, Saturday, 29 December 2018 20:14 (five years ago) link

Ned Raggett, Saturday, 29 December 2018 20:16 (five years ago) link

Thought this revive would be about the Perth DJ cranked out of his gourd running off with someone's toddler in the middle of the day at Jane Werner plaza.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Wednesday, 17 April 2019 01:32 (four years ago) link

Yeah that was a thing.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 01:35 (four years ago) link

just saw JR's The Chronicles of San Francisco at SF MOMA, it's free on the lower level at the Natoma entrance, it isn't a movie exactly, I'm not sure what to call it but it's fantastic

Dan S, Sunday, 25 August 2019 00:25 (four years ago) link

JR?

‘Video mural’ maybe. it’s pretty impressive. All the moreso in that he’d never made anything animated like that before. Scale is what makes it imo.

xp lol, I don't know his real name, that's what he goes by (he collaborated with Agnes Varda on Faces Places)

also I would really recommend Lisa Reihana's multi-channel video "In Pursuit of Venus (Infected)" currently at the De Young, it's in a similar scale
