Dear Friends I am calling out to all of you to reach out to a Queer Youth, I’m not going to bore you with details, you all know why. Reach out to a Queer Youth. I know, I know, “Baruch I don’t have the time.” Then at least tell them about The San Francisco Queer […]

It’s SUNNY OUTSIDE! Have you been to Dolores Park? I was there this morning with my iced venti mocha latte machiattayadayada surrounded by scantily clad tattooed and pierced genderbending queers, and it suddenly dawned on me — like a purple paisley rabbit-shaped vinyl purse flying through the air and hitting me in the head out […]

Yes, yes, we know. The hot guy outside of Macy’s is already selling roasted chestnuts in red jeans, a wife beater, and a Santa hat while they sift fake snow over him from above the door. Don’t look.

OMG! I saw Autumn! There was a leaf! On a tree! And it was half yellow, half orange, and it was LAUGHING at me because it knew the rain was on its way. I’m voting for thermoses of hot chocolate, big fuzzy blankets, and sitting really really close to the hot glittery new kid next […]

Hey Queer Cats! How’s that draft coming? You know, the one of that piece you’ve been working on… the raw, beautiful one where you bare your soul and frame it in wit and punch us all in the gut in the process and then feel just a little bit awkward for not having edited it […]

Breaking News: We have collected enough evidence (in the form of gratuitous exposed, tattooed flesh at Dolores Park) to assert with a high degree of confidence that San Francisco really does have seasons, and that this one is called summer. This is big. We want to celebrate this ground-breaking announcement with the kind of Queer […]

Heeeeyyyyyy! Hey hey! Hey! We have really good news! You know that gorgeous regular of ours who always knows the magical incantation to make all of our microphones work even when they’re completely broken, and who secretly makes big movies when nobody’s looking, and who spits hot luscious stories about women and love and love […]
