Maybe you made it to the opening party, at Heart. Or maybe you’re torn about the existence about another upscale place on Valencia Street, but you like wine, and you really like Kitchenette. Either way, Mission Mission’s Andrew Sarkarati posts some thoughts as a neighbor.

A little further down Valencia Street, Citysnaps shows the wall of photos put up after the Wandering in the Company of Strangers photography workshop. Check it out at 1240 Valencia St.

Keeping with the photography theme, the Rock Show Two exhibit at the Rite Spot Cafe should feature some amazing shots of artists like M.I.A., Jarvis Cocker and KISS performing live. You know you want to go.

And via All Shook Down, Unhappy Hipsters and its captioned photos of unsmiling subjects taken from Dwell magazine, is perhaps the greatest thing to hit Tumblr since sexpigeon.

Last, perhaps you remember Ghetto Frida. But have you met Animated GIF Frida? She’s by Maya Escobar, check her out below. (props to Rio Yañez and his fine blog.)
