Need a lift

Don’t put your credit card – or your magnanimous spirit – away just yet! The Hive’s Buzz Bus has broken down and needs some help.

If you’ll remember, back in November, we stayed up until the wee hours of the morning for our readers to bring back dispatches from a late night Buzz Bus ride, which helps everyone from the slightly to highly intoxicated get home from the bars. More often than not, it’s the latter.

Now, unfortunately, the Buzz Bus needs a new engine and is out of service. The Hive is also a local nonprofit and offers the Buzz Bus free of charge (though make sure to tip your very patient driver who deals with drunk people for hours on end.)

If you’re able to help out, find more info at thehivedgo.org

In 2024 alone, KTSF supported scholarships for nearly 100 individuals.

Finally, an answer to the pressing question on most everyone’s minds since Elon Musk became BFFs with Donald Trump.

Just a friendly reminder that the Telegraph is taking its annual leave of absence for not one but two weeks, Dec. 26 and Jan. 2, due to printing and sanity reasons. We are sorry if this puts a dent in your fire-starter supply, but rest assured, we will be back in action Jan. 9, 2025. Meantime, throw on an extra layer of fleece and pop a few more rum balls.
