Turns Out I’m Not Immune

Watching social media do a number on my head — Welp, it seems that I’m just not all that special after all. I’ve been noodling around the fringes of social media for nearly two decades now and here I thought I was immune to the poison. In fact, I’ve bragged about it both in person and in writing. Newsflash: Nope. …

Manhattan Is Sinking

And other cheery thoughts for 3am — It’s been pretty easy for me to sit back and smugly watch Florida sinking into the ocean while the hurricanes swat it around and its politicians stand on upended boxes to keep their feet dry while blaming drag queens and queers for the state’s problems. Easy and I’ll admit it…

Ukraine says White Lives Matter!

While burning the Russian Federation and Rainbow Flags — Let’s just imagine for a moment that a march happened in October 2020 in Moscow that featured a huge White Lives Matter banner and angry people burning Ukrainian and Rainbow flags. Can’t you hear the howls and see the wall-to-wall coverage on the front pages of The New York Times? …

Hey, New York Times and Friends!

If you aren’t working 24/7 to get Assange released you’re not journalists. You‘re tools. — On the first day of that Intro to Journalism class, the professor — an award-winning, internationally renowned investigative reporter and author of best-selling books, spoke with great solemnity about the “calling” of journalism. The man meant it. I really really wish I could ask him what he thinks of the…

The Burners Are All Right

What’s a tropical storm to those whack jobs? — The weather will never be truly predictable, but our reactions always are and that goes triple for any weather out in The Black Rock Desert. In a word: hysteria. The photo above is not from this morning. We took it from our tent on the morning of Monday, August 25…

Sorry, Not Sorry, Bernie

You poisoned the well and I won’t be going back for more — It’s a little embarrassing now to admit what a strident supporter I was of Senator Bernie Sanders in 2016 and again in 2020. With the benefit of hindsight and his highly questionable voting record in the past three years I have to admit I was conned. I am not comforted…

Hedge Funds Suck as Landlords

And they don’t pay their bills — This isn’t the first time we’ve gotten shut-off notices because whoever happened to own this building at the time didn’t think paying their electric bills was all that important. This time it’s only for a bit over $4,000. I’ve lived here since 2002 and one shut-off notice that came through…

Mission of Mercy

Who’s up for bringing Flaco a BFF? — You remember this guy, Flaco, the world famous Eurasian Eagle-owl whose cage in the Central Park Zoo was vandalized in February, 2023, giving him his big break. Sure you do. It was in the news every day for weeks and was even ahead of the Covid numbers. That owl then…

The USA Has the LAMEST Holidays

I’ve got better things to do — Just a quick word of warning: this is a rant. I might try to insert some dry humor but no promises are being made. Welp, that’s two down and one to go. Summer holidays are pretty straightforward affairs being mostly about drinking and eating too much. Now, all holidays in…

Counting on an Afterlife?

That’s just greedy — Who doesn’t want more ice cream? Sure, I get it. No one wants to die. I don’t want to die. Big deal. I’m going to die. So are you. So is everyone you care about including that adorable kitten who just shredded your favorite chair. Ah, but there’s always a…
