Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn is doing it for herself (her sisters and her) this weekend in the DC Comicsverse Cathy Yan-directed Suicide Squad spin-off, Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of Harley Quinn). Up first, though, to vibe things up, is the blockbuster’s soundtrack – which is stacked with up-and-coming talent and also comes out […]

The Fallacy of Social Media
It’s terrible – not any social medium per se, but what social media have done to humanity. As a society, as a culture, as friends and family to one another, even, some of us, if not most of us, we have gotten used to declining calls (why?), disabling our voicemails, and allowing only for missives […]
Sheriff
Sheriff is this older gentleman that we’ve witnessed live a quiet, mostly solitary life at Elm & Van Ness, near the San Francisco Cooking School, for five years now. Next to the old McDonald’s – that’s been his spot this past half decade, and who really knows how long he actually has been out there, […]
The Only Susan This Court Shall Recognize
Thank goodness for Sean Hayes. Always good for a pivot. The Emmy winner has co-written his next starring role in a new comedy titled Lazy Susan, a slice of life about a woman on the edge with nowhere to go but over. Ha! ’Cause you can either break down or break through. I tell ya, […]
This Sign Applies to You, #SanFrancisco
Any more obvious, floral for spring. Get it together, #SanFrancisco. Keep everyone safe out there. Do your part! 👊🏽✌🏽
Drive Like You Care, #SanFrancisco
It is incredible, and unshakable, how a simple, yet thoroughly preventable traffic impasse can spiral out of control between two people too stubborn to let it go and too committed to keep it goin’, even when they find themselves heading in the same direction and keeping ridikolous pace with each other. And how it can […]
MIAMI 2.20 Playlist Time
America got sold out again yesterday, but there’s a football game on Sunday, and gosh darn golly by golly if America isn’t gonna just pretend like nothing’s wrong. Again: Best way to get out of an aggro moment? Think of a happier one. And vote – and support Amy McGrath in her quest to rid Kentucky, […]
La Genteficación Será Transmitida
De estreno en Netflix en febrero – tal vez para llenar el vacío que dejó One Day at a Time, pero definitivamente para representar a La Raza – está Gentefied, una comedia dramática creada por Marvin Lemus y Linda Yvette Chávez, dos escritores chicanos de primera generación, que sirve como una carta de amor bilingüe […]
SFO>MIA
The San Francisco 49ers are headed to Miami to face the Kansas City Chiefs come Super Bowl LIV on Sunday, Feb. 2 – featuring Jennifer Lopez and Shakira at the halftime mark – and that means you the Faithful are, too. You’re gonna need a place to sleep in the Magic City, and you’re also gonna […]
The Joaquin Phoenix Moment
He’s won the Globe. He’s won the SAG. He’s probably gonna win the Best Actor Oscar for Joker, too. Not bad for a guy who, not a decade ago, had quit acting to focus on a rapping career, of all things, while sporting black sunglasses on a full face o’ scraggly beard and wearing $3,000-dollar […]
