A view of Bernal Isle from high above Mission Gulf

Thanks to “global warming,” the Mission will one day be fully submerged in the bay, so we’ll need to head south if we want dry land. Today, Bernalwood published an in-depth look at this startling vision of the future:

It may take centuries for Bernal to attain its island destiny. Yet whenever that future arrives, we, the residents of Bernal Heights, should ourselves be the architects and designers of our shared destiny. Which is why — aided by detailed maps of Bernal Isle created by La Lengua rebel leader Burrito Justice — Bernalwood has created some conceptual mockups to demonstrate how we might leverage Bernal’s prime beachfront location overlooking Mission Gulf… for the benefit of posterity.

Read on for lots more analysis and graphics.

Furiously fast fog

PSA: Instead of killing spiders you find in your house, catch them and toss them in the backyard

That lets the little sucker keep on doing what he does best, which is trap and devour all the nuisance insects like flies and mosquitos that actually intend to cause you harm!

Optional: Put it in a container so you have a friend to keep you company for the afternoon before you set it free.

Caveat: If it’s a particularly beastly critter like this little guy here, dump him in your neighbor’s yard instead!

What were you doing on the brightest Saturday of the year?

Recent transplant from New York says ‘naked, spitting, pissing BART dude’ incident escalated because SF males ‘don’t act like real men’

“Denise” from New York, in the comments section of our original post about the incident, lays the blame:

Moving from NYC one year ago, I have to say I thought I’ve seen everything until I landed in SF. The lack of visible police officers in the city is the #1 problem. The NYPD wouldn’t tolerate half of the behavior that goes on here. And, I’m sorry to say, the men in this city don’t act like real men. That guy didn’t have a weapon and could have been restrained. Drugs or no drugs. The craziness is tolerated here every day!

Thanks, Denise!
