"Ugh if I didn't get tickets to PUP in February I could've stayed in Vegas goddamit." I had just gotten back to Denver after touring California with my band Rotten Reputation, and was faced with the task of heading back almost immediately to LA for a music festival I had said yes to playing a...

Heya! I'm Nanie! I love to make pictures with bright colors, build semi-utilitarian sculptures out of trash, hang out, get high, and eat free food! (and a bunch of other stuff, but those are the things on my mind right now.) I just lost my job, apartment, and possessions. A little bummed about...

Hello I’m 19 and got way ahead of myself learning quickly though, I am reading everywhere to take Lombard into 101 to go north into Oregon where I am headed. Need tips first time hitching and I have no clue what to write but if any of y’all are north of San Francisco I’ll stop by :). Anyways...

Taken From: http://sfaf.org/client-services/syringe-access/history-of-needle-exchange.html Throughout the history of HIV/AIDS, there are many moments that stand out as bold acts of courage that forever changed the course of the epidemic. Syringe access in San Francisco is certainly at the top...

Looking at going back to the Bay Area for a couple days later this year, everyone I know there has moved on and I'll have my camper (converted 4x4, so not as subtle as a van) with me. I usually try and avoid bigger cities by San Francisco is, among other things, a bit of a nostalgia trip for...

Berkeley too. Where are good places to spange? NO FREEWAYS/INTERSECTIONS, even if I won't get arrested, I'm terrified of cops. I might be going tonight, because fuck LA and fuck every human being I've met here, but I don't want to have zero money. I'm probably going to mostly kick it in...

i just moved out of the bay because my rent was over $1000 a month (considered a steal there by most conventional standards there). but screw that. I want to live there (my bandmate is there as well as all of my artist contacts and friends) and I can't afford/don't want to live there...

So, I'm 18, and tired of mundane 9-5 societal life, and am ready to embark on a journey of spiritual growth, and personal freedom. I'm headed from Denver to San Francisco solo.. I'm semi-new to this, but am excited for something new. Debating if I want a road dog or if I can do it alone.. Any...

I'm moving up to the bay area next week with very limited places to sleep does anyone recommend parks, squats, or hostels to stay in while in the bay? Also i was wondering whats the safest parks to sleep at is Buena Vista safer than Golden Gate Park to sleep at in a sleeping bag with pack?

I plan on selling my car and moving to the SF/Oakland area in spring i know money doesnt go as far there as most places and other than couch hopping ill be doing i want some advice on sqauting up there. If anyone has tips or experiance its greatly appreciated

Having worked construction around a lot of SF neighborhoods, I did learn of one possibly abandoned home and I want to see what's up with it so bad. Anyone with a little know-how want to join? Pretty please I dislike that city, but a fancy home is a fancy home and maybe its just where one of us...

Ted's Dead by tony longshanks This is a belated eulogy for Ted Gullicksen, longtime director (or in his own humble words, “office manager”) of the San Francisco Tenants Union (SFTU) and co-founder of Homes not Jails, who was found dead in his bed on the morning of October 14th, 2014. I was a...

How to get out of SF for free: 1. It's easy as fuck. Got to the Ferry Building at the end of Market St. Go to the TV that has the ferry schedule on it. See when your ferry leaves. One goes to Larkspur (farther North) and the other goes to Sausalito. I've got on twice meaning to go to...
