First they vandalized the community murals.

Then they bent the poles cordoning off the sensitive dunes.

Then they damaged the Ocean Calling art project, tearing it apart.

Then they destroyed the community pianos.

Then they hacked down the community hammocks.

Now they try to target businesses in the community by removing the advertising signpost at Noriega (photos showing before and after it was taken).

They even removed safety signage (look below Noriega street sign) in an obvious attempt to increase danger and undermine the park.

Vote No on G. These types must be stopped.

Twelve ghostly figures watch over SF from a rooftop perch 23 stories up. Artist Muriel Castanis, known specifically for her eerie draped figures, created the 12-foot high sculptures for the Philip Johnson-designed building in 1982, looking out from the four sided rooftop, three to a side. Since they were revealed they have been interpreted as everything from grim reapers to angels, but the artist described them as "corporate goddesses."

Aka balcony solar is about to become legal in California. Assuming Newsom doesn't veto it.

In total, Urban Alchemy’s presence prevented around 900 low-level crimes each year, according to the study. Stuart’s research estimates that those crimes would have had a negative financial impact of up to $7.7 million annually. That is less than half of Urban Alchemy’s $20 million-plus operating budget, but supporters argue that the organization’s model decreases recidivism by providing employment to formerly incarcerated individuals who might otherwise have trouble finding work.

Anyone heard of or had experience with this organization Archangel AI?

Always very leery of anyone offering free cameras and surveillance services, doubly so for anything directly associated with a random AI company and connected to law enforcement systems.

Curious of others’ thoughts on this.

This was billed to a store in the Castro as a way to help prevent LGBTQ hate crimes.

Not sure where to post this as I’m not on Next Door or FB, but am posting this in attempt to try to warn the owner(s).

I just witnessed a dog walker who had 8 dogs with him act very disturbingly towards one of the dogs (tall black lab with a red Gentle Leader harness). If you don’t know what a Gentle Leader harness is it’s the one that wraps around the dogs snout and neck to prevent them from pulling. The dog walker was growling/groaning at the dog and visibly agitated because the dog tried to sniff something in a bush. He then proceeded to punish the dog by pulling up vertically on the leash that is attached to the dogs snout/neck so much so that the dogs front legs were lifted and it was basically dangling by its face. The man was a middle aged white man of medium stature with a baseball cap. This was at the corner of Frederick and Ashbury btw. I was too afraid to say anything as I’m a small woman and the man seemed to be in a very bad mood.

ETA: this was at around 1:50 pm.

ETA: the dogwalker has been identified as Danny from Danny's Doggies.

At the Nike store, downtown San Francisco.

Fast-casual Japanese restaurant, Nori Mori, is coming to a previously vacant storefront at One California. The city is helping with a grant. Looks like Japanese food for office workers--hand rolls, wraps, bowls, etc. Was supposed to open in late Summer 2026 but when I stopped by it was still just posters in the window. https://bayareatelegraph.com/2026/09/01/a-quick-and-casual-new-japanese-restaurant-is-coming-to-a-very-prominent-spot-in-san-francisco/

My amazing 81 year old filipino mother-in-law is in search of a small bullet charm (necklace next or charm bracelet) to ward off the curse purchased by a witch by "the enemy of her brother".

Any suggestions for charms? She tried Japantown today but only found "fancy things". I'm guessing the Mission but have no connections.

Thanks SF peeps!

Hi everyone, I am going to Spectrum at Club Fugazi, and have two extra tickets. It is a Queer variety show where all proceeds go to the Trans Film Festival. My sister and her boyfriend bought the tickets but are okay with them being a donation so I can offer them for free!

DM me if you'd like to exchange info so I can give you the tickets and maybe meet up before the show :)

Just general trash. I did also call to both report (approximately 10 needles on Post & Scott) & complain about the reporting options on the app. Pls alert your supervisors! Maybe the needles option is hidden on the app but I could not find it nor could the operator. Thx neighbors!

Waiting at Rose Pak station. Announcement saying Delay for east bound and west bound due to medical emergency

The van has a chimney, mail box, and shower hose attached; I giggle. nothing like a nice political race “joke” (except sadly not a joke since this is many people’s reality)
