there should be one of those clickbait quizzes where you have to pick the era of the anti-gentrification posters: 90s or now?

the question nobody's asking: is there a link between gentrification and nicely letterpressed posters

From the "And What To Do In It" files:

Sunday, April 19th, my kids' school is having a pie social fundraiser. You can sign up to make a pie (and potentially win a KitchenAid mixer), or just come eat lots of pie and support the kids/meet an ilxor.

oh good they're making a tv show about my zip code: http://blog.sfgate.com/culture/2015/04/20/casting-for-new-mission-set-tv-pilot/

didn't realize there was a society of rockets show last month, sorry I missed it

with any luck in another four years there'll be another show lol

That show sounds like they just ripped off your life as a leading tech executive, Shakey...

*insert 90210 joke*

this is bumming me out

get a bike, cross the g.g, go to the woods, and the small towns.

Seeing Sleater-Kinney tonight, wondering if the show will end before BART stops running or if I should just drive there.

it looks like there's just one support act and it says it starts at 8pm, should be over before BART stops running

This is undoubtedly my favourite show at the moment! Fucking love this show!

ok so a few days ago one of my co-workers e-mailed all her fellow co-workers in the office that live in the Mission (including me) asking if anyone had gotten one of these on their door:
https://pacificfeltfactory.files.wordpress.com/2015/05/door-hangers-3.jpg?w=640

these were apparently all over her block at 15th and Guerrero. (No one else had seen them). I didn't think much of it, beyond thinking that it was kind of a shitty thing to do to invade people's privacy with a more-or-less threatening message implying imminent arrest.

Later in the week, totally unrelated, my wife relates to me the continuing saga of our homeowner's associations conflicts with this artist collective that has moved into a live/work space adjacent to our building. Turns out they want to also host events, live music, public parties, etc. all while using our building's entrance/exit and courtyard. (Obviously we are not so happy about this, presents a security risk, among other things). And guess what - the artist who did this stupid doorhangar thing is part of this collective. Oh joy. I am all for art spaces and supporting artists and have been doing so for 20+ years in this city, but these people seem like jackasses.

Typical NIMBY haha.

Confused though. Artist collective is using ur building's space? Or are they part of your building? I can't imagine your insurer would be pleased in either case.

Door flyer thing seems like typical promotion crossed with post-9/11 paranoia. Don't see implied threat.

I know lol

when our development was purchased/built this old brick building (formerly a felt factory) was set aside and designated to be used by artists as a live/work space. The developer (as is typical with developers) took forever to get the place ready, didn't properly remove asbestos, etc. before finding a buyer for the space. The developer found a buyer, and the artists just moved in over the last few months. BUT they are not part of our HOA, they are separate. And so they have lots of different ideas about how they are allowed to operate, which are now being hashed out with our lawyers. For example, their building can only be accessed from the sidewalk through our building entrances. We initially had a bunch of robberies in our building for years, and went through a lot to secure our building - the prospect of the gallery allowing essentially random, unsupervised access to our building is not v attractive.

anyway

condo ownership, the joys of

Beats the alternative, but yeah I know feeling. :-/
