We hardly ever talk about U.S. American relations vis-à-vis the rest of the American continent. I’m from Peru; here going on 20 years. Came for college; stayed for the freedom and the family I found here. Here, where I enjoy certain (shared…for now?) privileges that are still out reach for many in South America, Peru […]

Impeach
Impeach. If I had one wish, it would be impeach and remove, but let’s def impeach Donald Trump, and let him deal with the consequences of his actions, for a change, OK. Blaze new trail, America, you go. Remind the world why this country was chosen as the home of Lady Liberty. Look, personal feelings aside, […]
Open Your Eyes
On the subject of gun control in America or the egregious, criminal, and deadly lack of it, everybody knows the damn truth. Nothing’s gonna change, nothing is going to improve, no life will be spared while Mitch McConnell, the longtime senator from Kentucky, is still in power. That motherfucker is the longest-serving Republican U.S. Senate leader […]
A Wolf in Gucci Clothing
Little Monsters rejoice: Lady Gaga’s swinging for the fences in Ridley Scott’s House of Gucci. The Grammy- and Oscar-winning multi-hyphenate is set take the upcoming awards season by stylish storm on Nov. 24, when she portrays Patrizia Reggiani, the socialite at the center of one of the most sordid chapters in the history of the […]
Peruvian Here, Lemme Tell Ya
Some Peruvians may be fucking around, alright, but most Peruvians are not fucking around, lemme tell ya. (So if you’re coming my way, just don’t. And do not get it twisted.) Early this evening, Peru, my birth country, swore in its third president in a week, a man named Francisco Sagasti. (I don’t know her.) […]
The Gay Holidays Are Nigh
Just in time for my birthday. You have heard about Happiest Season, right – the upcoming hulu original lesbian holiday film premiering on Nov. 25. Well, its soundtrack is dropping a week from today, on Nov. 6, three days after Election 2020, ready to usher in a new era, alright. Fingers crossed, anyway. The Facet Records/Warner […]
Postcard from the Miami Design District
I’ve mixed feelings about this one, but it was bound to happen – and that’s the sunnier side of the street, feelings-about-it-wise, so good on ya, Miami, for carrying on and having a Basel season in 2020, after all. Oh yeah, not even that bitch COVID-19 could keep the Magic City from getting down with […]
San Francisco, 6.1.20: The Pursuit of Happiness
Lunch before editing. Look here, it’s June 1, 2020. We know what needs to change – the entire world sees it. Here, there, everywhere. This system that discriminates, rapes and pillages, sickens, and shortchanges our brothers and sisters, you, me, it’s got to get an upgrade. Today. It doesn’t work. Hasn’t worked, except for those […]
Vote MMXX: The Playlist
Vote for science, and for decency, America. You know the date (don’t even think to try to say you forgot or you didn’t know): Nov. 3 – be there or be square. Yes, there is quite a lot on the line, but you have the power to make a difference. This is your time. Shine […]
Postcard from Huntington Park
What a lovely tribute to Ruth Bader Ginsburg I saw earlier this week at Huntington Park here in San Francisco. If the deplorable, petty men in “power” refuse to do the right thing and honor the late U.S. Supreme Court justice’s, “most fervent wish…that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed,” […]
