Stay tuned for further SFist coverage of events in response to the maybe-happening alt-right rally at Crissy Field. This week's event round-up includes a smattering of everything else that's going down, from album launch parties to comedy troupes who make fun of your childhood photos. Have fun, be kind, and stay safe, friends.

TUESDAY, AUGUST 22

SHIRE ARTS AND SCIENCES MEETING: Bear with me here, this is interesting. The Shire of Cloondara, the San Francisco chapter of the Society for Creative Anachronism, meets monthly to either discuss or hear a presentation on the Middle Ages. Why? Because that was a cool time period, I guess. This month's topic is Medieval Chess Variants, taught by Lord Virgile de la Fuente. The meeting (again, attended by a Lord) will be held at the Round Table Pizza on Geary. Were I not currently out of town, I would be the first to arrive and the last to leave because this is extraordinary. "We don't wear garb to meetings," warns the event listing. Round Table Pizza #600, 3567 Geary Boulevard, 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., free.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 23

HUMP DAY! A PARTY FOR WOMEN: Juicy hosts this ladies' night at OMG to help us all get through the work week. It's a shindig for queer women and friends, and it'll feature a sexy DJ set from San Francisco native (!) and Artist MicahTron spinning R&B, hip-hop, Latin and dancehall music. Anyone who shares the event listing on Facebook will get a free shot (presumably of alcohol.) OMG, 43 6th Street, $2 after 9 p.m., 21-and-over.

METEOR SHOWER: The Perseid meteor shower, one of the brighter meteor showers of the year, occurs annually between July 17 and August 24. Join fellow fans of starry skies and cast your eyes upward for "Just Look Up," a stargazing party suggested by Awesome Events San Francisco. Basically, Awesome Events is like, "You should lay on the Main Parade Ground of the Presidio for a good view" and I agree. Let's! (Or you could drive somewhere with less light pollution...) Presidio, Main Parade Ground, 9 p.m. or so, free.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 24
