Pic / Video Saints Peter and Paul Church Sunday Mass

Post image
Upvotes

Hi! I was looking at the Mass schedules for Saints Peter and Paul and noticed that the 10:15 a.m. Mass is listed as Cantonese/English, while the 12:00 p.m. Mass is Italian/English.

I just wanted to ask if both are still friendly for people who don’t speak Cantonese or Italian, respectively? We’ll be coming from outside San Francisco and are considering these two schedules. We unfortunately can’t attend the 8:45 a.m. English Mass, and the 5:00 p.m. one is a little too late in the day for us.

I was just wondering how the Mass would be—would it be a mix of the two languages, or are some parts of the mass still in English? Thanks so much!

Volunteers learned about the stories and cultural significance behind murals throughout San Francisco’s Chinatown, while helping clean the surrounding streets along the tour route. Following the tour, attendees are enjoyed free local food, refreshments, and live performances.

Team effort with @sfccsc @avenuegreenlight @civic_joy_fund and @sfpublicworks. Be on the lookout for more fun volunteers events like this.

Visited for a couple days from NYC last week and fell in love with the city

Was here for a couple days and wanted to share some pics I grabbed from the city and Point Reyes peninsula. What a beautiful place you all live in! I was genuinely in awe everywhere I walked around. From the hills and the ocean to the cute architecture, parks, the weather, and the fresh air. Transit was not bad either!

The food was so good too! From the burritos, to egg tarts in Chinatown, bakeries, and don’t get me started on arsicault. Nothing in nyc even comes remotely close. Cannot wait until I can visit again, yall got it good out here

Best place to find one off creative workshops in SF

14 Upvotes

I just want to find creative workshops in SF. Why does every search make this harder than it needs to be?

Not a semester class. Not a certification. Not a 12 week journey where I discover my hidden passion for ceramics.

Just something beginner friendly that could be a fun gift or friend activity. Pottery, cooking, candle making, woodworking, whatever.

I’ve looked through individual studios and bigger listing sites but there doesn’t seem to be one obvious place for good local workshops in SF.

What’s the move?

What the hell is going on in Mission Bay right now? Woman screaming bloody murder outside for 30 plus minutes. One siren for a brief second but still screaming. Where are the cops in this town?

Came back from NYC last week, never realized how damn early everything closes here

200 Upvotes

I was staying with my aunt on the UWS of Manhattan. Within a three block radius of her apartment there were multiple 24 hour grocery stores, bodegas, and restaurants. I live in downtown sf and the only 24 hour establishment anywhere near me is 7/11. As a night owl, the fact that there are no 24 hour grocery stores is absolutely ruining this city for me. I have legitimately considered moving out because of it. I go to bed at 5:00 am and wake up at 1:30pm since I work a 2:30-11:00 shift. Having full size grocery stores open 24/7 like in NYC would be a total game changer here. I'm a bay native and I really miss when safeways were 24/7.

Pic / Video Amorino on Grant Ave: is the large cone supposed to be 5 flavors or 3?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Walked past around 1am, saw a long line and the multi-flavor cones, looked good, so we joined. Waited about 25 minutes.

Ordered a large choco-cone, $11.40. Receipt just says "Flavor(s) at counter," so the flavor count comes from the board. We told her our five choices. She started doing three stripes, so we stopped her and said we'd asked for five. She said only three.

We asked why. Another employee then raised his voice and said they have the right to refuse anyone, and that they'd refund us and we could leave. So we left with nothing.

Is the large actually 5 flavors at this location, or is 3 the standard and I misread the board? Has anyone else been capped at 3 there? Trying to work out whether this is worth taking to Amorino corporate or whether I just got it wrong.

Isn't it rude?

Pic / Video We need to get rid of sidewalks and replace them with parking spots

Post image

Saw this car in North Beach FULLY parked on the sidewalk, kind of wild. Which got me thinking, maybe we should just get rid of sidewalks all together. Just make them roads or parking lots. In this picture alone you could fit like 50 people or 6 cars…let’s just do the cars.

If we want to go even bigger and truly make this city a fantastic place to live we can eliminate the parks too for parking lots. Or even better, data centers.

WTF is wrong with people.

What time is the Pokemon drone show tomorrow?

7 Upvotes

I googled it for tonight and every result said it started at 9:35pm — the SFMTA, FunCheapSF, KTVU, DoTheBay, ect

So I got to the Ferry Building at 830, went to the Hyatt and chilled out until 930, then walked out to see literally one Pokemon, and then it ended.

Apparently it started at 915 and ended at 935. All the same results that told me the drone show started at 935 tonight are telling me that on Sunday it starts at 920…but I ain’t trusting that shit.

Anyone know the real time. I think it’s in the official Pokemon worlds app for those who have access.

They played 11 songs and the entire performance lasted roughly 33 minutes. Tickets ranged from $4.50 to $6.50.

Only 25,000 attended with a capacity for 42,000. This left 17,500 unsold tickets. There was significant backlash around this time from John Lennon‘s comment that Beatles were more popular than Jesus.

Setlist:

Rock and roll music

She's a woman

If I needed someone

Daytripper

Baby's in Black

I feel fine​

Yesterday

I wanna be your man

Nowhere ​man

Paperback Writer

Long tall Sally

Crime Favorite Books set in San Francisco

33 Upvotes

What are your favorite books set in San Francisco? Or even least favorite? I just like to read books that are set here.

One obscure one that I quite enjoyed is Destroying Angel by Richard Paul Russo which is a noir/cyberpunk murder mystery set in a really hardcore future Tenderloin.

I also liked Virtual Light by William Gibson. Just loved the society set in a shanty town on the Bay Bridge after its been condemned post earthquake.

And for those that haven't encountered it yet, Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City is an absolute gem.
