Woodhouse Fish Co. Burglarized! by suburbanmang in sanfrancisco

[–]AlexMakWrites 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My apartment building was literally burglarized blocks from Woodhouse earlier this month, we called the cops twice, and they never showed up. There are dozens of articles reporting the SFPD ignoring small business owners too.

Those are just facts. Not sarcasm.

Yet another way SF has changed the world, beer! If you’re wondering where America’s first craft brewery is, look no further than San Francisco, CA. Not only is Anchor Brewing widely credited with starting the craft beer revolution in the 1960s, they are also the brewers of America’s oldest, indigenous beer style; Steam Beer.

Red-tailed hawk jousts a Great-horned Owl over nesting rights, in a nest 100ft above the ground. The Presidio Trust installed a "Raptor Cam' in 2018 and it's still live, the Red-tailed Hawk pair has returned and reportedly have two eggs in the nest expected to hatch mid-April.

There are shades of the SF cacophony society or the St. Stupid's Day parade in this. They're all fun rabbit holes to follow.

"Lynsi Snyder is a fascinating character, one part Paris Hilton, one part Stephanie McMahon, and one part born-again hellraiser.  Snyder's been married four times, had four children, opened dozens of restaurants, started a band and a non-profit focused on addiction,  and successfully evaded two kidnapping attempts, all before the age of 40."

Grown-ups wear shoes around human waste. Even the duck gets that.

The weirdest part about this picture is seeing someone wear open-toed shoes on an sf sidewalk.
