"Flabulous!" SomArts Cultural Center	Sat., November 21, 7:00pm more dates/times	South of Market	Activism Burlesque Dance Drag LGBT Events
The sight of joyful, libidinal, beautiful fat bodies in motion can make interesting things happen. It can make a woman — if inspired by Jukie Sunshine's burlesque, the Phat Fly Girls' complete lack of shame, or Jay Walker's drag kinging — stop hating her body. And what might happen... More >>

House of Diehl’s Style Wars: The Style Battle Championships Mezzanine	Sat., November 21, 10:00pm	South of Market	Contests Fashion & Style Music
Although life itself sometimes feels like a never-ending and humiliating style war — a high-stakes skirmish, with plaid jumpers eliciting audible gasps and trollops casting the evil eye upon last season’s riding habit — sometimes it’s just grand to show up at a nightclub and... More >>

"Meat" DNA Lounge	Thu., November 26, 9:30pm	South of Market	Music Nightlife
Don't tell the crowd at Meat that it's Thanksgiving: they think it's still Halloween. As this now-annual November edition of the monthy goth-industrial gathering, the date becomes irrelevant as DJs spin enough spooky, demonic dance tunes to keep October 31 repeating in an endless loop.

Simian Mobile Disco, J.D.H. & Dave P, Tenderlions Mezzanine	Fri., November 27, 9:00pm	South of Market	Music Nightlife
Simian Mobile Disco's James Ford and James Shaw tweak their throbbing electronic assemblage into a mass of pastiche moments. The British duo's latest full-length, Temporary Pleasure, nods to acid's undulating squelches, freestyle's syncopation, machine soul's compressed bleep-beats, and... More >>

“Tropical Vulture” Yerba Buena Center for the Arts	Daily from Sat., November 21 until Sun., January 10	South of Market	Film Film - Art House
The influential filmmaker George Kuchar first won a fringe following decades ago with his pioneering aesthetic of low-budget kitsch and bad-taste Hollywood homage. After switching to video in the '90s, the venerable Mission District icon gravitated toward first-person travelogues shot through... More >>

"One Day: A Collective Narrative of Tehran" Intersection for the Arts	Mon., November 30	South of Market	Art
For a moment last June, America's fascination with Iran shifted from nuclear to Twitter. The San Francisco–based microblogging company's role in Tehran's post-election protests fired up the media's imagination and bridged the static-filled political divide. More than anything, the... More >>

"Revive" Needles & Pens	Daily from Mon., November 16 until Tue., December 8	South of Market	Art Art - Galleries Free Events Holiday
Nikki McClure's art makes us think of the cut-paper designs of the aged Henri Matisse, and not just because she uses cut paper. McClure also shows a similar ability to know which are the important lines in a composition, suggesting much but using very little: Most of her work is made with an... More >>
