Patreon Pride 2018

February 19, 2025 By Miriam Green

Hey there Kinksters June is Pride Month and at Wicked Grounds we’re celebrating! So, we thought it’d be fun to give you our final pledge drive ask video for a little bit with a bit of Pride flair.   I know we’ve been doing a lot of Patreon related video content that you, our subscribers, already know about. We’ve said it before and we’ll say it probably a million times forever, but we’re so thankful for all of you. You’re keeping us going and we’re trying to build a foundation that takes some of the pressure off of…well…everyone. New videos with topics other than Patreon are coming SOON. You’ll want to stay tuned for more updates. Patrons at the Furiosa ($10) and above tier are seeing this goofiness first, before it’s released to the rest of the world! Again, thank you all so much and have a fun, safe, happy Pride, Johnny

30 Days of Pride Day 4: Kink concierge services

February 19, 2025 By Miriam Green

  Monday, June 4th: Kink concierge services! We have always said that Wicked Grounds are kink concierges first and foremost — coffee is just how we’ve traditionally made that happen. (And now, through the power of the internet, we can bring our knowledge and expertise nearly everywhere!) What does that mean? It means when you come into the shop, our baristas will help you figure out the best party or munch for you, and when it happens. It means that we keep a full “propaganda area” near our bathrooms where you can peruse flyers for local parties, organizations, craftsfolk and kink-aware professionals — or leave propoganda or your own. It means that when you ask for a book recommendation, we’re going to take time to learn more about you to give the best possible advice for who you are, how you play, and how you learn. It means that when you ask for a toy recommendation, we’re going to listen and tell you what we think is the best fit for you — whether that’s something that you can buy from us, or we send you to another shop or website. It means that we host the Kinky Queer Revolution podcast (20 episodes and counting!), offer KINK 101 classes, teach in the local community, and are re-launching a regular advice column. In short, it means that we want to be your trusted advisers on all things kink. Do you have a friend or loved one who needs help on their kink adventures? Send them our way! We are happy to help. #30daysofpride#pride2018#coffeeandkink#kinkconcierges

30 Days of Pride: Day 1 Goal!

February 19, 2025 By Miriam Green

30 Days of Pride Day 2: Support Coffees!

February 19, 2025 By Miriam Green

Saturday, June 2nd: Take pride in your kinky, queer cafe! Spread the word about our Support Coffee program! Everyone should have access to safe spaces, but cost is too often a barrier — especially in SOMA and in the LGBTQ community overall. That’s why we started our Support Coffee Program (check out the full history here). Customers with a little extra to share can pay it forward at the register (or even online) to buy a coffee “for the wall”. Those little hearts you see over the sink when you’re at the register? Each one represents a cup of coffee, tea or lemonade we can give out to someone else, just for the asking. Each one makes a huge difference for someone who wants to attend a munch during a financially tight week or a displaced SOMA resident looking for some refreshment. Not everyone knows about the program, so here’s how you come in! When you hear a friend say, “I’d love to go, but things are tight this week,” let them know. Bay Area Queer Exchange or Trans and Queer Free Pile? Let them know. Spreading the word about your munch or event? Let your attendees know. Let’s take pride in a space that makes more inclusivity for kinksters, LGBTQ folks, and all of the other folks that make SF so great. #pride2018 #wickedpride #30daysofpride #coffeeandkink #pridelatte
