I love my family, photography, cycling, A’s and Dodger baseball, tennis, jazz, Mexican food and liberal democracy but not always in that order.
All photos and opinions- good or bad - are mine alone.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.
The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

Minnesotans hoped to "forget everything" for a moment at Warriors-Wolves. But amid city-wide unease, that simply wasn't possible.

ICE and CBP agents are out of control and put everyone in danger.
We're calling for ICE agents to withdraw from Minneapolis, and for Congress to rein in ICE’s abuses in our communities.
