Thinking about air travel during a pandemic becomes clearer when you’re doing air travel during a pandemic. There I was last week, honey, sitting in First, which never happens (just the once…and the one way this first once, for that matter, OK). What – if you had the option these pandemic times, you, too, would […]
Madame X vibes last night at @clubfugazisf for preview show 11 of “#DearSanFrancisco,” a high-flying love letter to the #CitybytheBay by @the7fingers, an awesome international troupe full of stars. @madonna’s “#MadameXTour” was the last show we enjoyed pre-COVID. How appropriate to get back to it with this performance, a celebration of dance, gymnastics, and human […]
The thing about the happening, meaning COVID-19, our very own IRL happening, is it happened (it’s been happening). And shortly thereafter, America pulled out of Afghanistan. Good thing, for now we can call upon and welcome our military home, and task them with helping us to strengthen our communities rather than fortifying our fronteras. Up […]
Misinformation is out there – and she’s being such a bitch. I let it go yesterday evening, when we overheard a grown young man mansplain to a trio of grown young women outside a downtown bar in Walnut Creek that, “the CDC is a business. The CDC is a business!” It’s like, yeah, motherfucker, this […]
It’s time. Time to get vaccinated, time to keep smart and wear our masks among large crowds of people we do not know, especially indoors. Time to enjoy a little music. I put together this Untitled Playlist for After the Pandemic a few months into the pandemic, ’round the time we were hitting peak baking […]
The longer we wait to #VaccinateOurWorld, the longer the global COVID-19 novel coronavirus pandemic will keep going (and going, and going), infecting and killing who knows how many more of us, and mutating into something more and more unmanageable. Oh, you think your life has been disrupted by having to wear a mask or by […]
And don’t you forget it: Pride was a riot. Last year, COVID-19 could not cancel Pride, and the celebration went virtual, was illuminated – it carried on. Closer to the streets, the people got back to basics. Some of us called upon the spirit of Pride and the result, at least here in San Francisco, […]
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 […]
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? […]
Truth time: We are gonna wanna hurry back to the multiplex for this one. What can I tell ya, they made a fan outta me, so I look forward to see the long-running Fast Saga roar back into movie theaters this summer, with its ninth blockbuster entry, F9. Reason enough to get win the program […]
