Since Katy did such a great job with the San Francisco Tumblr Lucky 13 meet-up plans, let’s just worry about getting to next week and save Zeitgeist until another day. Sound good?
Zeitgeist: Meet-Up No More
San Francisco Bay Area tumblr meetup NEXT Friday
If you don’t end up going to the Saturday afternoon meetup this weekend, it is mandatory that you join us next weekend on Friday, May 16th at Lucky 13. (well not mandatory but you’d be missing out big time)
Lucky 13 is on Market Street between 15th St and Church (near the Castro and really close to all kinds of public transportation)
Why you will be there:
Kick ass tunage on the jukebox
+ drinking $2* cans of PBR on the back patio with good people
+ visits to graffiti-filled bathrooms
+ bullshitting with internet friends over whiskey shots
+ munching on free popcorn

SF tumblr love.
*unfortunately it’s CASH ONLY but if you spend what’s in your wallet, there’s an ATM inside.
REBLOG THIS AND LET’S SPREAD THE WORD!!
ps. if I’m missing anything, let me know. See ya next Friday! -Katy
San Francisco Tumblr Meet-Up
Hey party people,
This group was started to eventually have a meet-up, yeah? So let’s do it! I’m envisioning Saturday afternoon at Zeitgeist. What are you envisioning?
Re-blog to spread the word, add suggestions and give you 2 cents.
San Francisco Torch Route Moved, Protest Accomplished
The nation’s only chance to see the Olympic flame up close became an elaborate game of hide-and-seek in San Francisco on Wednesday, as city officials secretly rerouted the planned torch relay. The closing ceremony to mark the flame’s only North American stop was also effectively canceled in the face of thousands of protesters and supporters, who waited for hours in vain along the flame’s announced route.
As someone who lives in San Francisco, and encounters the same police force’s attempts to curtail public protest on a monthly basis (Critical Mass) I gotta say yesterday came as absolutely no surprise to me. They know how crowds work. They didn’t even tell some officers about the change in plans, knowing they’re well trained for unpredictable mobs. When there’s talk of flying blood baloons on CriagsList, you take your torch somewhere else. What really disappoints me is that the unwitting spectators on Van Ness who had their route shut down because SFPD is too scared to run their actual route, just stood and watched. Didn’t you people get the memo! Free Tibet!
This link should allow everyone to join the group! If it doesn’t work, email me (on the right).
** San Francisco tumblr meetup in MAY **
OK it’s about time the bay area had it’s own Tumblr meetup (we gotta keep up people!) so I’ve taken initiative and created this group tumblelog so people can know tumblr happenings in SF!
I’m thinking the beginning of next month (May) for our first meetup. Happy hour on a Thursday evening? Other ideas? Zeitgeist might work….
If you are in the bay area, REBLOG THIS!! The more the merrier :) And for now (until I get the whole tumblr group thing down), email me at katy [dot] schnoor [@] gmail for an invite.
