The Lab is restoring the main auditorium of the San Francisco Labor Temple, built in 1914. Among other things, this is where the 1934 vote to join the longshoremen in a city-wide general strike was held. It will be the largest, longest-running space in the Bay Area dedicated to experimental work.

"In my country, we have no bungholes" he says, calling to mind Deleuze's body without organs, the never-penetrated plane of pure immanence.
Cornholio in many ways is a manifestation of the madness he lives under. Forced to be a pawn he yearns for freedom, he lashes out against the world around him but cannot bring himself to do so *as himself* because to do so would mean to confront the devil Butthead and the suffering he has inflicted

Fundamentally, Lurie and Trump both elevate people with little to no experience so that they have political pawns who owe their careers to them and are functionally paying off that debt through whatever votes are asked of them

So many people have written wonderfully about Margaret and her incredible influence on the Bay Area art scene. She was a true connector and a generous supporter. As DL Alvarez says, it would take a small committee to fill her shoes.
