SFist Mihi reviews the movie described as Spellbound meets big hairy gay men! We were surprised when we saw the documentary Bears at the Castro on Saturday at the Frameline film fest. A pageant for big hairy gay men is basically like any conventional beauty contest, only with more harnesses and buttless chaps. Unless you commit an egregious error like blurting out, "I love Nazis" during the all important Q&A, we all know that pageants......

It's been a while since we published a tech roundup. But the Internet turned 15 last Sunday, we got a new laptop from an entrepreneur and friend who'll be enabling this 'Fister's addiction to blogging, and SFist Chuck, whom we dearly miss, was kidnapped by Disney, who force him to Imagineer at gunpoint. All the while, you've been lost in the unmapped multiverse, wondering who Supr.c.ilio.us and TechCrunch are, and which is the hipper one......

Yes, folks, she writes about more than food! Contributing SFist Mary Ladd is concerned about San Francisco's Olympic dreams, and we can't blame her! We’re considering booking our dream vacation now if the Olympic Games will be in San Francisco instead of Los Angeles or Chicago in 2016. Maybe it's a chance to try apartment or home swapping. The prospect of Olympics in SF gives us pause. We have always loved living in the Bay......

Nerds should start arranging transpo down to Menlo Park tonight for the latest Dorkbot at Onomy labs. Topics include artist Jill Miller's hunt for Bigfoot in the northern Sierra, PARC alums Scott Minneman and Dale MacDonald discussing collaborative innovation and somebody will be bringing an x86 laptop with OS X hacked onto it. It's getting rather queer over on the Craiglist listings -- it's Naughty Schoolgirl night at Divas, Bay Area Black In The......

We headed over to Bimbo's last night with some degree of trepidation, since our favorite rock critic in the whole world, Kelefa Sanneh, had just described headliners the Go! Team as "a British indie-pop version of the Black Eyes Peas," and not in the good way. (Vote for Kelefa (and Will Shortz) in the Gawker NY Times hotties poll!) So okay, we were a little skeptical when the lights went down and the stage lights were set on "swively" and the fun "the band is coming on stage!!!!" music started up, and this teensy woman with a huge voice and hardcore British accent starts scream/rapping over the horn section and harmonica and bass and two drum sets. It also did not help our mood that there was a couple, the man-half of which with that distinctive indie-rocker b.o., making out with the thrashing arm and leg motions that only new couples with an exhibitionist streak like to do. But... it is a testament to the power of the Go! Team's relentless positivity!!!!! that we shook off our befuddlement and decided we were having a funky-fresh good ol' time! They were totally like a cartoon band, like Josie and the Pussycats, or Hi Hi Puffy Amiyumi --like, we had this feeling that on the way to the gig, the Go! Team had just saved the universe from space creatures or stopped a series of bank heists or something, and that any second later, we would fade to black and the Hanna Barbera logo would do its trademark swoopy synthesizer rotation. ...

As we all know from experience, you can turn a pretty fast buck just by taking off your clothes. But not everyone is conscientious enough to strip for a cause, as the Hotties of Harm Reduction have done. Taking their cue from other cheeky charity nudists, three local needle-exchange programs have banded together to raise funds via naked calendar modeling. We always knew there was a sizzling sexpot lurking just under the surface of every......

Filming has started for the upcoming Reese Witherspoon and Mark Ruffalo romantic comedy "If Only It Were True," based on an adaptation of local novelist Marc Levy's 2000 novel of the same name. If you don't recognize the location, it's 16th and Valencia - photoblogger Bill of Mermaniac tells us the bookstore location has been renamed is "Abandoned Planet". It seems there's already been a sighting of Ms. Witherspoon at Dolores Park over the......
