Thanks for helping me bang my wife
Update to this post from last week:
https://www.reddit.com/r/bayarea/s/pwB3Cr21w3
Ton of great advice from everyone in the original post. I was mainly looking for a change of scenery as parents of young children know how nice it is to be in a new place away from your day to day chores.
A lot of the advice seemed to point to getting a regular hotel or Watercourse way in Palo Alto.
So with the wife’s input we got a room at a 5-star hotel in SF. Didn’t want to be away for the night but were able to have a lunch date (and bang ‼️) and then go home to the kids. Woke up and went back to the hotel, had a breakfast date (and bang ❗️ again).
Thanks again for the tips, it felt nice to sneak away from the family and feel like young people again. And for everyone concerned - yes we do bang at home when the kids are asleep too. It’s just nice to get away from them sometimes :)

missionlocal.orgHoly AI
I’m a college student back in the city for a few weeks over the summer. I knew the city would feel different from when I was here in the winter, but Christ. I’m as much for AI as the next guy, but I feel like there’s a line somewhere…
Is there anything stopping Taco Bell from putting a cantina in the cliff house?
Serious question - it would definitely be incredibly popular and would be way better than the abandoned building sitting there now. Would local restrictions get in the way though?
The bumper stickers THOSE people actually need.

48hills.orgWe built a "dating app" for founders looking for co-founders, engineers, and talent
We run a community of 150+ founders, and kept seeing the same pattern: founders looking for a technical co-founder, engineers looking for a founder to build with, GTM/marketing folks and content creators looking for a startup to join. All the "matching" happening manually in DMs and Discord threads.
So we built,
Basically an app UX for finding your next co-founder, hire, or collaborator. We went with a fun, playful UI on purpose instead of another clean/minimal SaaS look, because our community has always run on real human connection, not transactional networking.
We've already got founders from YC, Antler scouts, and VCs in the community, so the early signal has been good. Now trying to see if this resonates outside our own network too.
Would love feedback on:
- Does the "dating app for founders" framing make sense, or is it confusing?
- Is the fun/playful design working or does it undercut the credibility?
- Would you use something like this to find a co-founder or teammate?

What ISN'T in San Francisco?
Hello! I've been living in San Francisco for a few years. I'm visiting places outside of SF and I realized that we don't have a Wal-Mart! What other places do you miss when you moved into the city? I personally miss Wendy's, although it saves me a lot of money not eating there.
you can wave your flag or you can clean your country! 50 UCP volunteers removed 4,000 pounds of illegally dumped trash from the tidal canal before it could make its way into the bay and the ocean on july 4.
while many people spent the holiday weekend celebrating, 50 volunteers spent part of theirs giving back.
together, we removed 4,000 pounds of illegally dumped trash from the tidal canal before it could make its way into the bay and the ocean.
to us, patriotism isn’t just about celebrating where you live. it’s about taking care of it. you can’t say you love your community if you’re unwilling to help protect it!!!
clean up with us next saturday!
happy fourth of july, and thank you to everyone who came out.
Went to Crissy Field ana at 4:30 pm to see the fog, noticed 1 hour lines at porty potties, overflowing, no toilet paper. Wtf. Ended up buying 100+ rolls at Walgreens. But for real. Why do other pride parades get hundreds of porty potties but this huge 150k group only get 50? GH015994
I called as many county numbers and parks and recs and federal numbers as I could, talked to medics, sheriff, sfpd, sfmta. They complained as well that they had nowhere to piss. Sfmta parking enforcement were sending out new trainees not even done with training to handle traffic that day. Many parking enforcement refused to show up that day as well.
It was a shit show.
Toilets were not flushing at Chrissy Beach at 6pm, poop at the top of seat height of 15 percent ( my memory) or porty potties.
The best ratio of toilet paper to toilet was at Crissy. End of the evening there were a few drops of .5 ply TP that lasted 30 minutes.
The lines were fucking insane.
I got yelled at. Many assumed I worked for the city. I spent my own money to try to help people wipe their asses.

The morning after
The fireworks debris and smell of cordite in the air are expected; the fresh sideshow marks are a nice bonus touch. But the flag fluttering in the breeze in the background is the real grace note. Happy 250th, everyone!
