Mission Mission

20th and York, right now.

From last night’s Dia de los Muertos procession.

According to the post Allison shared on her Facebook page, this creep was last spotted at a laundromat on 24th and Guerrero. Gross.

Says the ghost in the machine. But hurry, you only have 16 seconds.

Prescribed me a burrito.

Ken Ken Ramen documented 8 hours of trash can surveillance, and since we’re your source for all trashy news we’ve just gotta show it to you. Basically, these babies can’t catch a break. They are knocked over, peed on, ignored by recology, thrown into fires and so forth. Let us take a minute to honor our brave trash cans for their bold service.

See the rest of the saga over on their tumblr.

You know I meant seitan! This joke has been done a million times on a million vegan menus. Just kidding!! A million vegan menus is something that will only happen when hell freezes over. The Mission, however, is abundant with seitan-based dishes with diabolic names. So light a black candle and get your cloven hooves on these demonic, gluten-y treats:

• The Hell Fish Taco (Dante’s Weird Fish): Seitan, avocado, and pico de gallo in a taco formation.
• Devil Burger (St. Francis): Seitan piled on top of a vegan burger? Well, okay!
• Satan’s Philly Cheese-fake (Bender’s): The most evil thing about this sandwich is the number cocktails I seem to accompany it with.

This evening the finest synth wavey dance night in the Mission celebrates some of the Bay’s most excellent live electronic music acts. In particular, Ssleeping DesiresS and Black Jeans will be performing live tracks in celebration of the release of the new Bay Area themed Sweating Tapes cassette compilation. Doors open at 10 p.m. at the always awesome Submission space at 2183 Mission St (cross is 18th).

Esteemed Mission writer @brittneyg asks an extremely important question about San Francisco:

An illuminating Twitter discussion followed — more here — and thanks to @therealWBTC, we are collecting DATA – how many hoodies do you own?

Do hoodies outnumber San Franciscans? Add your zip code and we can answer that eternal question — who has more hoodies, the Mission or Outer Sunset? And how many dogs have hoodies?
