Leave it to Jessica Chastain to make me wanna care, if only a little, about Tammy Faye Bakker. Indeed, the two-time Academy Award nominee is bringing life to The Eyes of Tammy Faye – and she is going for the win with a sure-to-be-hearty performance complete with the look, the sound, and the heft and […]

America, You Nutty
Tonight, Reuters reported first, that (Republican) Senators blocked an independent and bipartisan commission investigation into the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol, and second, that the United States are sanctioning Belarus over the fraudulent grounding of a dissident-carrying plane back in Minsk earlier this month. It’s like, America…where do you get off? If you can, […]
A Voice Undeniable
History in the making is so much better than history repeating. Meet Lucia Lucas, a American transgender woman – Sacramento in the house! – and an international opera star, who became the first trans person ever to perform a principal role on an operatic stage in the United States of America, when she sang and […]
‘Final Account’ x King of Cups
We need to talk about Nazis, don’t we. They were a thing that I thought we had dealt with last century, yet some people – 🙄 – are foolishly trying to make ’em happen again in various parts of the planet and all around the Internet right now as I type, even. How original. All […]
Oakland, 4.1.21
Half us at home got scheduled for today for a COVID-19 vaccine, so today my beloved got his Johnson & Johnson shot. (I’m a Pfizer bitch.) Someway, somehow he was offered an early evening appointment at Oakland Coliseum, so we hit the road for a joyride. And what a joy it was…. To see, so […]
P!NK Doc
For now, I try. Fucking P!NK knows. She knew back then in 2000, when she first burst onto the scene. We are billions of beautiful hearts, indeed. And we can also be so missundaztood. Twice now I’ve been thisclose to seeing her live. I sooo shoulda gone to see her play at Club Revolution in […]
Pandemic Peeps-Día 417: Isabel Kenner
Día 417: Después de más de un año de pandemia, por fin tenemos vacunas contra el COVID-19. Lo que no tenemos es un plan global para repartirlas efectivamente y equitativamente. Qué se hace, no? A seguirla nomas…con buen humor y buena voluntad. Un efecto imprevisto del novedoso coronavirus, que ojalá se vuelva aún más común? […]
What’s In a Name, Anyway?
I wonder if Halston, the upcoming Netflix limited series starring Ewan McGregor about the late It American fashion designer of the ’70s, will succeed with me where Halston, the 2019 documentary about Roy Halston, did not. The doc, which I attempted to watch early days of the pandemic, was too heavy, too familiar. Perhaps, a […]
Pink Postcard
The moon was to be in Scorpio this month, and it seems we all noticed. Because the moon was to be pink, too. And who doesn’t heart a pink (and healthy, please) San Francisco Bay…. The moon is in Scorpio, alright. There is a sharpness in the air, a striving energy. Light to find. Light […]
Spirituality
Boy, do we need to talk more about spirituality. The subject feels so daunting sometimes, though. So esoteric. Even now, still, after our most pandemical year that will not quit, you’d think we’d all be like, floating on air and shit, our auras vibing with one another in harmony, soundtracked by singing birds. But no. […]
