Well that was empowering. It was not my (official) duty (quite just yet), but it was my privilege: I just got back from working the poll for your ass, America. You better didn’t fuck it up. Alrighty then, you know what: Saging works. Setting an intention works. Calling upon patience works. What a fun day […]

GratitudeFest
No matter what happens now, we gotta have grace. We have to be grateful that we made it this far. That we are here. That we are healthy. That we are surrounded by beauty and good people, even (especially when it feels and seems that it’s nothing but fugly ass folk all around every day, […]
9M(+)
’Cause of our world is such a shame. Top of the weekend the scary news going into the most pandemical of Halloweens was the United States of America had reached its 9 millionth COVID-19 infection. Nine million Americans in less than nine months, reportedly on account of the asymptomatic among us. (Just wear a damn […]
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 […]
Beyond COVID-19
OMG, OMG, OMG. COVID-23 is a thing…at the movies at “the movies.” For serious, can you imagine a world in which COVID-19 mutates for four long years (not four more years…) to become COVID-23, a beyond-novel coronavirus that has thrust the world into the extremest of lockdowns? Well, now ya don’t have to, for Michael […]
Capri x King of Cups: The Playlist
#Iclosemyeyes…and I see Capri, indeed (these are the days for a little escape, after all). I can hear and see fireworks over Moschino (perhaps a celebration is nigh closer to the here and now, and the coming week). I can feel the island breeze. I put a few records. And I am there, lost in […]
Pandemic Peeps: Liz Newman
And on the seventh month…we couldn’t rest easy, because the COVID-19 pandemic’s still going on – but, I think, we have managed to carry on, now, haven’t we. I mean, yeah, everywhere around the world there is some sort of conflict as I type, but the planet’s filled with people who simply shine. That’s my […]
It’s the Little Bit of Magic in It…
I guess. Oh, proms. What is a prom, anyway? What is a prom in this culture or that culture or in that one. I know that for me, looking back on it, the concept was muddled; no one meaningfully explained it or gave a proper raison d’être for the event. I feel like the French […]
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 […]
The Thing About Borat
He’s baaack. Golden Globe winner and Academy Award nominee Sacha Baron Cohen’s Borat Sagdiyev, the (fictional) leading journalist from Kazakhstan’s State-run TV network and that nation’s now-fourth most famous man, has returned to the big screen after 14 years, a long time during which a lot has happened. For one, Borat was sacked from his […]
