Ron DeSantis turns slowly and whispers "give me your fork - trust me, I know a better way"

as Justice Stewart wrote, "I know it when I see it" and yeah, this is pretty clearly obscene

If a roomful of generals knew not to applaud a political speech ...

hate they're in the ACC now :(

Slate sandwich board outside a restaurant with hand-lettered “come in for coffee & pancakes” written in chalk

All I could hear from the street was some crazed woman screaming WAFFLES from the inside, weird

C’mon over to watch a game and I’ll buy you a drink! I have a lot of room on my dance card - would love to hang!

Tall blue cocktail with a straw on a white marble bar with a women’s soccer match on the tv above the shelves of booze

Checking out Rikki’s for the 1st time - great vibe, and blue spirulina makes it a health drink, right?

yah, and now dammit I can't look at my photos w/o IMMEDIATELY thinking of you lol

large folk-art "clocks" propped up against or nailed onto trees. The trees are barren and the sky is gray. The clocks range from 18 x 36 inches to larger squares perhaps 3 feet square to on large rectangle that's maybe 3 ft wide and 6 ft high. That one has red numerals hand painted in to columns on a black background. The other clocks in the photo are also quite colorful but irregular numbers and outsized hands

Katie, have you ever been to Detroit? this is some of the art at the Heidelberg Project (worth a google if you're not familiar, fascinating story)

I look forward to Friday Night Chicken even more than Friday Night Zillow

if the state of journalism and its capture by the right wing also has you in despair, a real, tangible thing you can do to push back is support/subscribe to worker-owned indie news media!!

Stage at the Masonic chock full of artists for the grand finale. The stage lights are bright and the band stands behind the lineup of singers clustered at standing microphones across the front

The Tribute to Emmylou Harris had an amazing lineup, a genuine love fest. Joan Baez, Bonnie Raitt, Allison Russell, Lucinda Williams, Patty Griffin, Steve Earle, Margo Price, Shawn Colvin, Rodney Crowell, Rosanne Cash. Thanks for 25 yrs of HSB, may patron Warren Hellman RIP as a good billionaire

Set up on the stage, flooded with blue light, with various guitars and other stringed instruments waiting to be grabbed and strummed

Waiting for the tribute to Emmylou Harris at the Masonic - baller seats!

💯- they're like a bunch of Yes ha ha ha Yes sickos (derogatory) w/o any talent or sense of humor

How to die These little ghosts ended up being part of a much larger painting. If you’re enjoying the newsletter gimme $2. This week’s question comes to us anonymously:...

This week’s newsletter is an uplifting banger! No, really. buttondown.com/monteiro/arc...

love their Sheer Sauce

this was a really good one, Mike (not that I have favorites). full paragraphs that are worthy of reposting on their own.

when their only KPI is "liberal tears" and their job depends on the supposed volume ... it's so tiresome to see the endless "libs are MELTING DOWN over [x]" when we're all huh? what's [x]?

I could live with that

also makes me more skeptical that any "deal" with Harvard is truly imminent. I think they just haven't had any capitulations in too long so they're going to try to pressure the 9 w/ Harvard's "deal" and vice versa

same - esp now, with the threat of our own military occupying the city. a little too real (in addition to everything else to object to)

100% and the army of resistance *also* marches on its stomach (written as I'm inhaling a bowl of ayocote blancos while scrolling bsky)

Headline from SF Chronicle: Blue Angels cancel San Francisco Fleet Week over government shutdown

And a million Bay Area thundershirts are stowed away til next July 4

this in-way-over-his-head dry drunk is so Cartman

omg - assume you did all this with Mike, not the emergency vet? if so, good work - bet he was a handful. give my furry bf a kiss from me

if that's true, then why do all you triangle-cut weirdos eat the pointy parts first, leaving a pentagon if not square of sandwich to finish?

Several clusters of fuchsia flowers on a big ol bush - they look like ballerinas

resistance is fuchsia

A group of about 30 naked men are posing for a photo by the gas station in Jane Warner Plaza in the Castro, facing Twin Peaks. They’re seen in profile while holding their bikes as the photographer stands out of frame.

Folsom Fair weekend, not sure if this is the regular annual “bike naked” ride or if it’s a special edition for the leather folks. Love the pot bellies - for those who are into, uh, bear-biking 🧸🚲
