It is staying warmer longer at night these dog days, and that is not a good thing. Not fun at all. No. Mmm…slower coolingsdown. If only we’d been warned, educated, and/or informed…. I remember in school, when teachers would explain the seasons to us kids, and describe how during summer, the days feel longer, the […]

Hot 🥵 Summer
If you are a global-warming denier or know someone who hasn’t been believin’ in climate change (and somehow getting in the way of any sort of sensical large-scale worldwide preparation), please, fuck off and remember and/or know that last year, in 2020, Death Valley National Park didn’t register a 130-degree temperature until the middle of […]
Polk Street, 6.27.21
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 a Mill
A year-ish, give or take…depending on where you are, since the global COVID-19 pandemic thrust humanity into a long season of self-isolation and systems-shocking quarantine, America has lost more than 500,000 people to the novel coronavirus. More than half a million humans gone, only in the United States of America. The global death toll is […]
We Have Such a Beautiful Bay
The San Francisco Bay’s not for spilling oil in it; I don’t care it was an accident, Chevron. Why are we still having these type of “accidents,” anyway? Don’t a lot of people get paid lots of money to ensure things like this don’t happen? What’s it gonna take? A Beirut-type of incident? (Take a […]

As some of us begin to see our communities re-re-re-open this COVID-19 season, let us remember that one person’s moment of quote-unquote freedom almost 11 months into our ongoing global pandemic is barely another’s second-wave cuarentena. Four hundred forty-two thousand Americans have died from this ever-evolving pest, OK, of course to say nothing of the […]
The Wind That’s Beginning to Howl
There is a storm ahead, alright. Still. I cannot be sure if last night’s wind spectacular was a normal event that we’d previously simply missed out on witnessing and experiencing – what…a roar – because we lived a little farther south and downhill from our current perch in San Francisco, but that was quite a […]
Habemus Vaccine
Oh joy. Today, five days to the day that’ll mark eight months in self-isolation on account of the COVID-19 global pandemic, elderly patients in the U.K., including a man named William Shakespeare (GTS), received the first doses of a vaccine for the novel coronavirus that has infected more than 68 million earthlings and claimed more […]
And Not a Moment Too Soon
Rain. Thanks for the wash, Gaia. See? You can always count on la Pachamama to come through. To check us. To cleanse us. Now we have a better chance to return the favor and nurture our cute little Earth back to health, and ourselves, too, with better habits and without, well…you know. Not everyone is […]
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, […]
