San Francisco may be a city of Michelin Stars, but any meat-and-whiskey-loving local knows this town is just as fabulous for its sticky diners and dives, where the coffee is black as night and didn't come out of a cat.
Celebrating our grittier culture: hip-hop group Hail Mary Mallon (Aesop Rock, Rob Sonic and DJ Big Wiz) with the band's latest single, "Grubstake" -- an ode to the all-hours meat-and-cheese emporium on Polk Street.
(Scroll Down For Video)
"Grubstake" is rife with classic Aesop Rock rude boy Paul Reveresque lyrics. (9:30, back home, no chicks, sober. / Came out like a lion but you went out like a gopher.) And the video, filmed entirely at Grubstake, beautifully encapsulates the late-night unwind. The song may seem slightly random in subject, but as SFist wisely pointed out, it isn't even the first in which Grubstake is mentioned. Bambi Lake's "Golden Age of Hustlers...

Out magazine continues to roll out it's 2011 Out 100, which honors the 100 Lgbt people of the year. Today the magazine names comedian Kathy Griffin and "Modern Family" star Jesse Tyler Ferguson as honorees on this year's list.
The theme of this year's Out 100 is iconic portraits from the 20th century and finds Griffin and Ferguson channeling Herb Ritts' famous Rolling Stone image of Janet Jackson.
From Out's website:
In 2011, we were reminded of the extraordinary power of the individual to inspire and motivate by example. A gay intern helped save the life of U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords; a young transgender student was crowned high school prom queen; a New York City lawyer became the first openly gay man appointed to the federal bench; and an air force officer, who helped found an undercover group of 4,000 Lgbt active-duty service members, was free to come out -- along with tens of thousands of his colleagues.

Superheroes and their phalluses. I swear.Quick Pet Peeve: I haven't seen it yet but why is Hal Jordan so unimaginative with his power ring in Green Lantern? I mean, you can create anything with it so you're just going to make a machine gun? Dullzzz-ville. Is this going to be like that time when vampires and werewolves were suddenly fighting with guns, draining them of all their supernatural mojo?
Quick Note: Tonight's episode of "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" will air tomorrow at noon instead. This day is crazy busy so I won't be ready in time. To prepare why not watch Fritz Lang's 1944 noir Woman In The Window on Netflix Instant Watch.
Quick Poll: So many people are [ahem] tree-inclined these days. There's more than just hugging going on. From Justin Vivian Bond to The Stark Boys, who wins Dendrophile of the Week?! Vote.

Twitch ah, the ongoing saga of the ill fated live action version of Akira. The troubled project just lost its director. Honestly, any director who signs on in his stead and is okay with the white-washing (with the retention of the Japanese character names, which makes the whole white-washing grossly confrontational and proud of itself. Ewww) deserves the mess he inherits.

Towleroad The Hangover Part II reenergizes the misunderstood topic of male nudity in film. See, Hollywood only believes in the penis as a comedy prop.
