Foul mouthed but fucking kind. I do some legal research and they pay me. Liberal, bulldog lover, empath, Colombian fútbol fan, The Bay for now. Who knows where to next...

I went to see @awolnation.bsky.social last Saturday. Favorite show, always. Hands Down. Thank you for 5 perfect LPs. What happens when they try to replace this art with AI? Who will we go to see? An LLM can't bring you to tears when your favorite group plays "the song." Nothing can take its place.

I was saying this just the other day. Who would want to risk it?

I left the US on 1/18 and retuned on 1/26. Today I went to the grocery store and prices are nearing the early pandemic level. Wonder what happened in that week? 😁

Literally on my way back to San Francisco from Colombia with half a bag full of kickass coffee. Timing couldn't be better. Starbucks line is about to look like getting gas in 1979. Oh, and Petro's Fuck You to the trumpkin was masterful.

Of course, we go to dentists that can help and hope to get great care at a reasonable cost. I like my dentist. However, the prices are out of control. A friend flew home to Bogotá, got a root canal and porcelain crown, flew back and saved money. Make that make sense. Colombia has great dental, BTW

The same people who say evil billionaires like George Soros control the world elected a cadre of evil billionaires like Elon Musk to control the world.

The cyber truck is the new Hummer. Everyone knows there's a douche bag driving the thing.

Why is it that when I try to nap I seem to get an itch in the middle of my back? So frustrating.

Saying "Lincoln was a Republican" is like saying “Kevin Spacey won an Oscar.” Technically it’s true, but a lot of shit has happened since then

I really hope the Hunter Biden pardon is the first of many things Biden does to piss people off in the waning days of his presidency. Full immunity, get hopping. It isn't like the incoming administrator won't take advantage.

Donald Trump's America: traitors writing foreign policy, racists writing immigration policy, thieves writing economic policy, polluters writing environmental policy, ignoramuses writing science policy, a hired goon heading the department of justice and One Fucking Moron to Rule Them All

I am here for the young women across the country going full on Lysistrata. Whether Lampito, Myrrhine, or Lysistrata, fight your fight.
