So the archivist at the SFMTA Photo Archive was able to help me dig this up! I absolutely love this photo. However, the archive doesn't have much detail on it. The description for the photo says "Copy Photograph of Bicycle Riders on a Tandem Bicycle with a Baby Seat Likely in Golden Gate Park | Date Unknown" (though, not sure how unknown that date is given the "Date Taken" metadata for the photo says "31 December 1899" 😅 ).

I would love to get a better idea of the location where this photo was taken. I also assumed it was Golden Gate Park even before reading the description, but am not sure where in the park a path like this would have been located (if it's even actually in Golden Gate Park!).

edit: oh I should add tags lol (I have no idea what tags to use)

YES!

Someone's taking a business to court that tried to call the cost of doing business a "surcharge".

Jonathan Rubin recounts his experience from January 16, 2025, when he purchased a meal from ProperFood's San Francisco location and was surprised by an additional charge on his receipt. He asserts that this lack of transparency misleads consumers into believing they are paying mandatory fees rather than optional charges designed to increase profits.

Intrusive, unwanted, annoying.

This is their so-called team.
