real down to mars girl. y muero perreando. formerly known as @mik in the bad place.
And if you’re a non-driver like me, the food bank can almost always use folks in the warehouse (just stretch before and after, tough on the shoulders!)
PSA as we near the suspension of SNAP benefits: I signed up to be a volunteer driver for meals on wheels through the SF-Marin Food Bank and it was so, so easy to do.

Under 24 hour turnaround from submitting my background check to being able to sign up for a shift. I start tomorrow. You could too!

When you omit "A Black man is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South for breaking a record of an all-time baseball idol," you completely alter what Scully was describing as "marvelous." Scully was NOT just broadly marveling. He was marveling at a very specific, very important thing.

For the first time in 16 years, I missed posting for Polaroid Week. It wasn’t that I forgot the date, or that I didn’t care, it just feels exhausting to do art with all of the *gestures around* 🤷‍♀️

This isn’t a business account even though business is kinda my life right now, so I’m only going to annoy y’all here one time. Probably.

I own a very small barbecue pop-up and this weekend I am slingin’ brisket sandwiches in public at a big festival and I want you to come! 3/15 in Noe Valley.

Might be time to put the phone down for a bit.

People who blast shitty Facebook reels from their phones at full volume in public and the folks that demanded parental advisory labels on rap music are probably a perfect circle, huh.

Flying sick unmasked in 2025 is such a predictable and despicable decision. I hope this random stranger’s eardrums literally explode with the pressure changes. 😌

Some day we’ll meet a local that doesn’t immediately react with, “why??????” but today is not that day.

We stopped to talk to a few Icelanders celebrating one of their 30th birthdays.

Me: I’ve been here 33 times
Four of them, in unison: THIRTY THREE TIMES????

Forever my favorite Nederland hobby: understanding just enough Dutch to eavesdrop

One time, Barbara told me, “the fun thing about getting high with you is that every time is like the first time.”

In a similar vein, packing to go away for three weeks 🙈 I swear I was good at this at one point in my life!

It’s a beautiful morning to be stuck on the disabled BART train. (It’s cool, there’s a rescue train coming to take us back to Coliseum, I guess??)

Once again I wonder how things would have been different if Obama had put some bank presidents in jail in 2009

It’s a very weird time to be a Raiders/Warriors/Giants fan.

I was born, raised, and went to school in Alameda County. My first baseball game was at the Coliseum. Nothing else as a sports fan (not even playoff losses, because at least you’re together in that) sucks as much as this.

Happiness is being at dinner at the greatest Cantonese restaurant in a city of great Cantonese restaurants and getting to break the Adams indictment news to your New Yorker brother. ✌️

So they’re playing Pinback and closing City Beer Store and my ability to even… I simply cannot. Here’s to all the white dudes I’ve ever loved. 🍻

Look, if you’re multiracial you are legally obligated to pick one and run with it. On my 18th birthday I registered to vote and my ethnicity, didn’t everyone?

Going to America is always the worst but it feels particularly worse than normal now. 🙃
