I listen to The goop Podcast, when I need to nurture my feminine side. Whoomp, there it is. And I gotta say, the recent conversation between Gwyneth Paltrow and Gabrielle Union was such a “J’ai eu un flash” moment. Union spoke to so much to which I could relate. And it helped, simply listening to […]

A Postcard of the Red Tide
What a lovely white-sand beach Indian Rocks Beach near Tampa, Fla., is. Sunrise to sunset, so lovely, indeed, this Gulf beach. How striking, too, to wade in its waters early one morn’, and feel nothing but warmth. A sticky, warm water, this Gulf water. Oh, but what’s that? A baby shark! (Doo doo doo doo […]
MMXXIami
Miami, Miami. It struck me, Miami, this last time we visited. The cycle and the churn of the Magic City. And how a small seed can become something big out there. The amount of “Yes” I saw. It has gotten so international. It now feels like a global duty free. And the humidity is the […]
The Time to Modulate Is Right Now
Inform yourself, calibrate yourself. Modulate. Cut back on your meat consumption, because it works. Like, it won’t save the planet – Earth doesn’t need our “saving,” for its plan we cannot even fathom – but cutting back on meat is one of the healthiest choices we can make at this point in the game, for […]
We with It
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 […]
The Thing About DaBaby
The thing about the DaBaby is he said something ignorant. Look it up. DaBaby thought he was being funny/macho/who knows (who cares), when he said what he said on stage at Rolling Loud Miami on July 25, and he wasn’t. And so Madonna took DaBaby to school for it, so what more can I say […]
Misinformation
Misinformation is out there – and she’s being such a bitch. I let it go yesterday evening, when we overheard a grown young man mansplain to a trio of grown young women outside a downtown bar in Walnut Creek that, “the CDC is a business. The CDC is a business!” It’s like, yeah, motherfucker, this […]
San Jose, 7.10.21
How lucky am I, to have seen mixed-media work by Ebony G. Patterson on two coasts now. Had a couple of friends in town this month, so we took a hot drive down to San Jose – ’cause we know the way. It beckoned, don’t you know, don’t you know, to the Institute of Contemporary […]
The Cold Hard Truth
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 […]
OMG, Postcard: #VisitWalnutCreek
It is so pretty out here in Walnut Creek. The Diablo Hills live up to it, alright, but so far, so pleasant. So many trees, such a variety keeping it nice and fresh. No one mentioned there would be deer and wild turkey roaming the streets. I love it. Friendly peeps out there, too, who […]
