"Let's put it this way: If Steph Curry is staying somewhere, I can't afford it." So relatable. The San Francisco Chronicle’s first story about Draymond Green, then a second round pick lugging his own boxes into a frugal new Emeryville apartment, is a delight. sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

Peter Hartlaub San Francisco Chronicle Draymond Green He didn’t even “upgrade” for his own parking spot! I remember taking some heat when I posted a photo of his car parked on Hollis and couldn’t help but think that he doesn’t seem to be trying to be very discreet based on his vanity plate and frame. 🤷🏻‍♂️

On this day, an earthquake and fire laid waste to S.F But you'll be surprised how much endured. Check out our visual tour! One of my all-time fav San Francisco Chronicle collaborations. Love the combination of innovation & storytelling & archive coolness here ⬇️ sfchronicle.com/projects/2025/…

When I found out the new San Francisco Bay Ferry vessel is named "Karl" I had questions. Learn how close we came to a ferry named Chowder, why Klay Thompson can't have a ferry named after him 🙁 and why you should NEVER let 7th grade boys name your boat. ⛴️🌁💯 sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

Have we all been sleeping on ... Livermore? I visited this downtown by bike and found the nicest people, pretention-free doughnuts and a strange but endearing obsession with the 116th element on the periodic table. Livermore forever. 🐄⚛️🍷❤️ sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

The East Bay Vivarium hatched an ultra-rare snake. It has two heads, two names and a growing sibling rivalry. I answer all your questions about Angel/Zeke. (With Santiago Mejia video! And a snake X-ray!) 🐍👯‍♀️ cc: California Academy of Sciences San Francisco Chronicle sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

Happy 100th birthday Kezar Stadium! 🏟️🎂❤️ This was going to be a pure nostalgia trip, but I stumbled upon a mystery. Who was Mary Kezar, and did she even want this arena? A story of nepotism, opportunism, Led Zeppelin ... and a happy ending for all? sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

Why did Alcatraz close down in 1963? It was prohibitively expensive to operate, held a maximum of 336 prisoners and — this seems important — officials said it was increasingly vulnerable to escape. The story Trump should've read before hitting "send": sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…

What was Steph Curry's first day of work like? Filled with turmoil. Also, he looked like a "Muppet Babies" version of his current self. Where I dig up San Francisco Chronicle's earliest photos of Curry (they were on CD-ROM!) and realize how far we've come. 🏆🐐💯 sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

I drove by the Richmond Costco and U.S. Postal Service warehouse 1,000 times in the last 50 years. Who knew there was an off-leash dog — and human — paradise right behind it? (With the first Total SF appearance by my dog Ripley.) 🐕 ☀️ 💯 sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

1,000 seals can't be wrong. This Dogpatch small business just moved into a World War II-era warehouse, and offers the most mystical tours of the bay. Another #TotalSF adventure with Jessica Christian, whose photos are soooo excellent here. 🌁❤️ sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

My tribute to "Midnight Caller," the best filmed-in-San Francisco TV show I've watched, that weirdly fell off the face of the earth. (Probably because of the Sade song on the soundtrack.) It ages well, as a window into the melancholy 1980s in S.F. 📺🌁 sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

I wrote an obituary for Rocco. A very good boy, and an opportunity to write about the specific-to-the-Bay Area thing I love about being a sports fan. 🌈 🐾 sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

We explored the strangest quirk of the Dipsea race, the notoriously challenging run over Mt. Tam: An 8-year-old just might cross the finish line first. Very fun collaboration with our photo & design teams 🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♂️💯 Gift link! 🎁 sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

Our San Francisco Chronicle data team found the Lands End Trail is the highest-rated "easy" hike in the Bay Area. This is the least controversial pick in both data and hiking history. Fabulous trail! Go today. My tour ⬇️ with A+ visuals from Santiago Mejia. sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

Mostly irrelevant but still endearing Judge Charles Breyer fact: Breyer, who issued today’s ruling, is an avid bicyclist in S.F. and rolled up on a road bike to last year’s 4 Star Theater screening of “Breaking Away” co-hosted by me & Grant Marek ⚖️ 🚴 💯 cc: Dennis Christopher

My ride-along with SFGiants broadcaster David Flemming — who has been commuting by bike to Oracle Park. (Including night games!) On the city's coyotes, focaccia & the ballpark bike move that got him in trouble. Gift link ⬇️ for Giants fans only 🚴🏟️🎁 sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

Every time I pass the C&H factory on Interstate 80 I think the same thing: "What's up with Crockett?" I finally dropped in last week, and it exceeded expectations. With an assist from Javier Panzar and so many A++++ visuals from CarlosAvilaGonzalez sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…
