Yesterday was definitely an unusual day at the office. Interviewed Gavin Newsom at the top of the Golden Gate Bridge as he signed his last-ever bill before being termed out as governor.

San Franciscans, get ready to be mocked. The man who has been skewering our neighbors to the north in Marin Lately is turning his satirical pen to us with San Francisco Currently.

AI companies, billionaires and our very enthusiastic mayor will all be fair game.

Scoop: San Francisco has sued Trump Media over its new Truth Social program to give those who pay $100,000 monthly an early view of the president’s posts.

City Attorney David Chiu said it fosters insider trading and called it corruption at the highest levels.

San Francisco officials and one determined mother are working to stop the spread of cychlorphine, a drug that is far more potent than fentanyl, after the death of a 16-year-old.

A drug 10 times more potent than fentanyl has arrived in San Francisco and killed someone: a 16-year-old boy whose mother found him in his bedroom.

Parents, please read this and alert your kids about the dangers of counterfeit pills.

Glad Lurie is declaring a rent emergency, but even more urgency is needed. SF/Bay Area needs to take some extraordinary measures to increase housing capacity. Otherwise we're Monaco, without kids or artists or anybody with a household income under $300K. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/10/u...

Scoop: San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie today will declare a rent emergency and offer up legislation he hopes will ease the spate of evictions amid the A.I. boom. Are you apartment hunting? What’s it like?

Sixty years ago, Ken Kesey’s psychedelic bus symbolized San Francisco’s counterculture revolution. With the U.S. once again facing war, polarized politics and cultural battles, his son thinks that old bus magic is needed and agreed to send it back to the city that spawned a movement. nyti.ms/4zeK5CX
