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 […]

Twin Peaks, 6.25.20
El triángulo color rosado fue la insignia designada a los homosexuales en los campos de concentración (cada “tipo” de prisionero fue asignado un color, para degradarlos, deshumanizarlos, y estigmatizarlos). Los triángulos rosados fueron diseñados más grandes que otros, para que resalten más los usuarios, para vulnerabilizarlos y alienarlos aún más. Hoy en día, el triángulo […]
From a Pal of the Pink Triangle
Later tonight, San Francisco’s Pink Triangle is gonna shine. Pink Triangle Silver Jubilee Trivia Alert! For the first time in its 25-year history, and on account of the many restrictions and cancellations brought on by the ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic, and in true the-show-must-go fashion, the annual tradition has gotten a special makeover and its […]
Workplace Equality Wins!
It’s beyond-official, America (at least, it better be): The Supreme Court of the United States ruled today, in a surprising 6-3 decision, that you may not, cannot discriminate against the queer community in the workplace ever again. You couldn’t yesterday (so fuck you for trying); you cannot today; and you cannot tomorrow – so don’t. […]
San Francisco 6.6.20
It was a week and a day ago. It was a beautiful day (windy, but still gorge). And it was my Peruvian-immigrant pleasure, privilege, and honor to march on and shut down the Golden Gate Bridge in solidarity and action with Black Lives Matter and #SanFrancisco. It was my duty. No justice, no peace. No […]
Gay Fact
United we stand, together we rise, and divided by hatred and willful ignorance they will fall. Bless their goddamned hearts. R.I.P. George Floyd. Get some therapy for your police officers, America.

I Met Heklina Today!
Well, I e-met her. On the Internet. Because we’re in a pandemic, and we’ve been staying home for a while, alright. Because life as we knew it may be no mo’, OK. Something has ended and yet, something’s begun. Entire world capitals, including San Francisco, are grinding to a halt as more and more communities […]
Listen to Your Elders, #SanFrancisco
Listen to your elders, kids. They’ve been around the block rather quite a few more times. And they have all the stories. I met a wise woman named M.J. last week, at the second meeting of the recently assembled San Francisco Street-Level Drug-Dealing Task Force. Look into that, too, OK. Btw, what…a beautiful room that […]
Her Feroshcity
I’m loath to bring her up again (no, I really am not), but you know Madame X…ahem…Madonna? She recently got to collaborate with another lady from Miami who’s killing it right now: American DJ/producer Tracy Young. As you may or may not know, Miami’s favorite DJ has a long history with the Queen of Pop, […]
