Mission Mission

Though the SFist editorial team’s work here is solid as ever. See for yourself.

For the record, this was submitted anonymously by a reader. These are not my friends.

Bring it on!

I’m at karaoke night at Jack’s, I’ve just finished singing “Excitable Boy” by Warren Zevon, a girl is starting into “Dock of the Bay.” I look up at the TVs and see a mudslide about to wipe out a bustling rural highway. The mudslide wipes out the bustling rural highway.

The man in the helicopter shooting this live NHK footage sees this and points the camera away. The man behind the bar sees this and changes the channel.

Cheers! “Norm!”

So hopefully a tsunami does not arrive.

It’s gonna go right here in front of Freewheel. Can’t wait!

SF Great Streets is pumped too, but thinks we should all learn some rules:

A new parklet is being built on Valencia and 20th in front of Freewheel Bike Shop in the Mission. And many more will be coming to neighborhoods throughout the city this Spring, Summer and Fall. The demand for parklets is huge.

With all of these new parklets coming to the city, you might be wondering what the rules are. Who can use them? What can’t they do? How do I get one for my neighborhood? How do I report misuse? Get the facts here, at the helpful FAQ we’ve put together.

Dang, we can’t drink on parklets. BUT, all the other rules and junk sound pretty good.

Can’t wait!

By the way, Mission Mission now has its very own Tumblr. Right now, it’s sort of a behind-the-scenes look at Mission Mission proper. Maybe that will be entertaining, or of some kind of value. If not, we’ll retool. At the very least, perhaps it will remind those of us in a total Tumblr k-hole (t-hole?) that good stuff exists outside of our dashboards. Perhaps?

Anyway, I think it’s fun for the time being. And the above picture is pret-ty trippy, right?
