Super fun interview with the internet's most famous blinker www.sfgate.com/sf-culture/a...

The Bay Area Maker Faire was this weekend at Vallejo's Mare Island. Makers showed off robots, drones and all sorts of unusual forms of locomotion. Presentations taught aspiring makers from 2 to 92 how to get started building their own wild inventions.

Calif. hippie college town serves as backdrop for 'best movie of the year' The film has been 20 years in the making.

The best and worst of San Francisco's Portola Festival SFGATE's staff have some compliments and complaints.

Our yearly report from Portola — great sets, but nowhere to sit www.sfgate.com/sf-culture/a...

Despacio is happiness

Readers, academics, trustees overwhelmed by discovery of new Ansel Adams photos Few stories have generated this much reader feedback.

Few @sfgate.com stories have generated as much feedback as Charles Russo's discovery of a set of lost Ansel Adams photos that were never before seen by the general public and unknown to even his biographers and archivists.

We figured some of it might be worth sharing:

Shaboozey getting tipsy in Civic Center

He co-founded Burning Man. It was the least interesting thing he ever did. After a tragedy in 1996, John Law disavowed the festival he helped launch.

Breaking News 1m ago A close adviser to Mayor Eric Adams was suspended from his campaign after trying to give a journalist cash inside a potato chip bag.

They say phones only make us miserable but I just got this news alert and laughed for a solid minute so who is to say

Mark Zuckerberg has never been more dangerous It's time for a reckoning.

Who do we blame when an AI chatbot lures a confused retiree away from his family, and in his rush to visit "her," he falls and dies?

One of the biggest Outside Lands sing-alongs to Tyler, The Creator

SF cops seize the unlikely drug of choice of Grateful Dead fans Deadheads clamored for "ice cold fatties" outside the festival gates.

Nitrous oxide culture around Grateful Dead shows is very real, did a little reporting on it last week www.sfgate.com/sf-culture/a...

Sun Ra Arkestra works on the other side of time

Lots of footage in here I haven’t seen 👀👀

The pied bagpipers of Golden Gate Park

This Berkeley brewery only makes one beer. And it's winning everything. The only beer packaged and released in its history is also "the most awarded pilsner beer in the world."

Trumer Pils is not only a delicious beer, it also has fascinating story.

I abandoned my iPhone for a $90 flip phone. Life's never been better. A piece of janky hardware succeeded where no screen time tracker could.

I could never give up my smartphone.... or could I? @bimonthly.bsky.social went old-school in one of the most inspiring stories we've published all year www.sfgate.com/sf-culture/a...

How a once-famous San Francisco building spiraled into pure anarchy "The Vats" housed a dominatrix studio, a gun range and hundreds of punk rockers.

Apartment rentals sure have changed in SF — in the 80s, you could pay $200 to literally live inside a beer tank or $25 for an air shaft. I interviewed the punk rockers that ran the abandoned Hamm's Brewery like an anarchist co-op, with gun ranges and a dominatrix studio. @sfgate.com @longreads.com

As small festivals flounder, 42-year San Francisco celebration reimagines itself The fest reimagined an older San Francisco tradition.

'So loud and so good': Why this band born in SF still might be the world's best In 2005, Pitchfork suggested Deerhoof might be the world's best band. Roughly 20 years later, the San Francisco-born outfit hasn't slowed down.

I'm not saying Deerhoof are the best band in the world, but i'm not NOT saying they're the best band in the world. Read all about it in this week's Fogcutter w/more from @stephco.bsky.social @bimonthly.bsky.social, DME kimberly alters and photo director charlie russo www.sfgate.com/sf-culture/a...

Hey I'm playing on Fault Radio tonight from 7-8 www.faultradio.com www.sfgate.com/sf-culture/a...

Screen shot of NYT post “President Trump has long amplified debunked or baseless theories. On Saturday, he shared a conspiracy theory on social media that falsely claimed former President Biden had been executed and replaced by a robot. It was the latest outlandish claim he has promoted online to millions of followers.”

Hands down the most epic use of The NY Times favorite phrase “falsely claimed”. I can’t stop laughing, this will never be beat
