So many people – tens of thousands – have been displaced by the fires that have been raging in the Northern Bay Area this week. Hundreds of thousands, in fact. People are losing their homes. People have died. And fire season just started (start doing your rain dance, please). The day after tomorrow is today. […]

The Receipts
America got called out tonight, in the best way possible – and, don’t you know, don’t you know, by America herself. Night 2 of 2020’s most unconventional Democratic National Convention featured an inspired virtual roll call that was so brilliantly executed in these times of COVID-19 TV. People, real everyday Americans, from every state and […]
157
Lest you forgot, it has been 157 days since 26-year-old E.M.T. Breonna Taylor was shot and killed, in her own home, during some sort of an overreach-y raid out in Louisville, Ky., earlier this year… right before COVID-19 hit. Don’t act like you forgot, especially because no arrests have been made. Where is the justice? […]
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 […]
That’s the Ticket!
It’s gonna be Biden-Harris FTW come Nov. 3, America – so vote or die alongside western democracy at the hands of the Trumps and their masters and their terroristical MAGA Nation. Think of Lady Liberty. Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, indeed, has chosen Kamala Harris, the junior senator from California, to be his running […]
150
It has been 150 days (a little more than that for some of us) of self-isolation, of quarantining, of living in a state of emergency – whatever you wanna call it – and of systemic and willfully ignorant failures by governments (and overprivileged peoples), but also of of self-realizations and revolution. Thanks, COVID-19! As of […]
The Onions
So there might be salmonella in the onions (and listeria in some citrus) – so you might wanna check in with your local grocer and/or rid your home of the aforementioned produce, should you have it on hand. Fucking A, the hits they keep on comin’, huh. Last week, while volunteering with the San Francisco-Marin […]
And Remember, Kids…
Everything is relative to where and when you are – so the advice holds: Don’t be an asshole. And to the adults in the room who are acting the fools, you realize that kids have eyes and ears, and feelings, and fears, and hopes and dreams, and ideas, right. Right? Wake the fuckity fuck up, […]
C’mon Now
COVID-19 isn’t a crisis anymore. It is a failure, of our leadership and of our humanity. There it is. And here we are (still), looking like we didn’t know this novel coronavirus was this much of an existential threat (there is no vaccine! it spreads easy and fast! it can kill you or your loved […]
Last Night Postcard
No matter what fresh bullshit 2020 had to serve, still’s got to serve, Pride 2020 could not, would not be cancelled. In fact, it shone brighter than ever in San Francisco. We were Illuminated. A part of something rather than apart of it. To l’amour!
