I have been saying – and writing…for the record – that the shit’s like The Day After Tomorrow for a minute now. In print, at least three years, since I became King. Of Cups. Now that we are paying attention, know that the media are gonna go beyond with the coverage, making it seem like […]

Juneteenth ❌ MMXXI
So tomorrow’s Juneteenth. Ish. Corporate America is giving millions of American workers Friday off, in observance of June 19 on Saturday. Juneteenth marks the day in 1865, when Texan slaves learned they had been freed, two and a half years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation on Jan. 1, 1863. I expect that […]
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? […]
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. […]
I Don’t Know What to Tell Ya
I’m sitting here, overcome with emotion. Oh, I’m levitating, but I’m also feeling something I don’t often allow myself to feel: tears in my eyes. Out my eyes. Down my face. The groceries are done. Fortune cookies still must be gotten and mailed to my nieces and nephews, alongside well wishes and the spirit of […]
When and Where
Everything is relative to when and where you are…. And methinks that if, a whole looong year of global COVID-19 pandemic later (which our myriad privileges may have allowed us to feel…or not), if after all o’ that, and then some, more of us aren’t more “we” people than before, then we have not been […]
Attention
You guys – they just want attention. You know who they are: We see these folks acting the fools every single day, and a large mob of ’em recently took over the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. Oh, for sure, sometimes, we are the asshole – but, fingers crossed, the moment passes you by, […]
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 […]
Llegó el Otoño
Fall is here. Ya llegó el otoño – o la primavera, dependiendo de dónde estén. Tengan cuidado; el COVID-19 sigue por todos lados. 🙌🏽😷👍🏽 Creo que lo de las máscaras ya se calmó un poco (más vale prevenir que lamentar, after all), porque people were not getting the message that masks are like the easiest, […]
San Francisco, 11.17.19
We should all be farmers. We should all be farming. By which I mean we should all know how to work our land, how to nurture it during the short while we are with it on it, how to take from it without leaving it barren for whomever is coming next. Instead, we are warring. […]
