4. I guess I was too busy trying to confirm that he actually was naked

to notice. (I can't believe they played that on a mainstream news. I remember when movies got an R rating merely for showing the backside of a naked guy . . . )

Good for him.

During a taxi ride late last year with international colleagues, they were treated to views of a Random Nude Guy strolling the streets.

3. What is the occasion? Why are all these people hanging out on this sloped hillside?

It's not a concert venue that I know of. And that's not Golden Gate Park where people gather on weekends to picnic (on much flatter ground) ... Pride Week was beginning of last month so it's not that ... so what are they all doing there?

The last few days the city has been under fog, but the Sun came out and I guess everybody just said fuck it, lets go to the Park. I have seen the park busy even when there are no celebrations of any kind... still there is absolutely NO EXCUSE FOR THIS. People should know better...they read the news..they see what's going on... so now..we might have an actually up tick of Covid-19 here in the city. I know its hard being stuck inside and secluded in our houses for a great amount of time, but come on! THIS IS FUCKING STUPID.

I don't know when this video was recorded, but an hour ago, every little group in Dolores Park was a very safe distance away from the next one. And Valencia was not crowded, but businesses were doing okay today.
We also drove through the Castro, where for the first time ever, we were able to make a U-turn at 16TH with no cars in sight. Spooky quiet, ad Market St was pretty quiet, too.

13. Cool! We've been driving around every couple of weeks to see how it's going

for the neighborhoods. So sad that so many businesses are empty & closed forever. Twin Peaks was like a ghost town yesterday. Also, the F isn't running to the Castro, just a MUNI bus, and no N running in the Sunset. Some good news: Part of The Great Highway is now a slow street; and Grant Ave is closed on weekends for outdoor restaurant dining.
