Men of Texas…American men in “power” (and on the streets, where true American power lives): Quit going after and/or letting other men mess with my sisters’ and nieces’ hard-earned rights. The American female community is not to be raped and pillaged. Grab something else. Y eso va para los compañeros también: Dejen de abusar a […]

Postcard from Huntington Park
What a lovely tribute to Ruth Bader Ginsburg I saw earlier this week at Huntington Park here in San Francisco. If the deplorable, petty men in “power” refuse to do the right thing and honor the late U.S. Supreme Court justice’s, “most fervent wish…that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed,” […]
‘Omg RBG’
Ding! A text from the East Coast. What a most modern way to learn, know, and understand that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the Notorious RBG, champion of women’s rights and equality, has passed away at age 87. Did American democracy die this evening, too? Moscow Mitch is already at it. As I live […]
The DREAM Lives
Nice try. Now back it up. Today the Supreme Court of the United States surprised again, after it ruled on another eagerly anticipated decision, one concerning the Barack Obama-era DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) American immigration policy, which since summer 2012 has provided close to 700,000 (known) young DREAMers respite from deportation. Swinging toward […]
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. […]
Recognizing Roe
So the FX Networks already have proven that they know drama, with everything from the American Crime Story and American Horror Story franchises and the anthological Fargo to the cult fave You’re the Worst. Now, they’re gonna show us how they do docs. FX is set to premiere AKA Jane Roe, its first documentary feature, […]
A(nother) Comment Re: Donald Trump
Just because a thief wasn’t caught that doesn’t mean they never stole. Just because a traitor says he isn’t one that doesn’t mean he didn’t sell out his country. Wake up, people. Donald Trump dodged the draft back in his day and today, he and his lawyers believe he can get away with murder. He pals […]
Where the Heart Is
Today, the Supreme Court of the United States heard arguments on the Barack Obama-era DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) American immigration policy, which has provided close to 700,000 (known) young DREAMers respite from deportation and, y’ know, a moment in the sun, since the policy was instituted in the summer of 2012. Quelle surprise, […]
San Francisco Civic Center 10.4.18
Oh the things you see when you go out to walk your dog…. The happy things you see when you’re out with your dog. This is the San Francisco I like. The one I loved seeing yesterday, on the fifth Oct. 4 I’ve spent in the City by the Bay. The one that shows up […]
