odd factoid so I can make an obituary all about me: I've got 3 degrees of separation from Greenspan. His widow, Andrea Mitchell, invited my sister to stay with her in Philly as my sis settled into her new job at KYW where Andrea was a reporter. Late '60s maybe? So condolences but he can rot in hell.

love this

Folks, @valkyriesbeat.bsky.social is *so close* to 1,000 subscribers. Would love to get there by the end of Pride month if you haven't subbed yet. Getting that number after 3 months as an indy women's basketball site is HUGE www.valkyriesbeat.com/upgrade

the world is 🫯 but I’m obsessed with all the poppies

So my bus is stuck bc the usual buses on this route are all out of service & they’re running larger buses that are too wide for the street and we have to wait for HQ to send out … tow trucks? to resolve.

Giants are playing in Atlanta later, and Landon Roupp is the starting pitcher. Hope he and all of his best bigot buds in the bullpen get knocked around early and often. Lose big, assholes!

I'm just catching up on Cabo Verde - omg! Here's a lovely story from yesterday www.espn.com/soccer/story...

Mamdani: "We continue to be proud of being a sanctuary city. We continue to be ready to stand up for our immigrant neighbors ... ICE is a rogue agency that should be abolished"

remember that "make America kittens again" browser extension that would swap kittens for Trump photos? I want one that removes Dolan from all the Knicks celebration pics.

if you just woke up from a coma, you'd think from this graphic that the Spurs must have swept, and by big margins. lol.

Last image from tonight (short film in the morning): this brother out here with his Singer sewing machine, gifting people a custom embroidery on their jerseys and hats with the name and the date, was more artistic than anything at Burning Man and ad gorgeous as a Caravaggio. Magic! Goodnight.

can't stop Knickscrolling, tearing up at many of these posts even. what a win for such a broad swath of the country. love my Dubs, but tonight nothing but 💙🧡

while celebrating the Knicks, scratching my head at the quietest 19 pts in 38 min conceivable from Wemby. he didn't/couldn't step up to the moment.

really happy for Mike Brown, too - solid guy, miss him on the Dubs.

Last time the Knicks were NBA champions was the year the DOJ charged Fred & Donald Trump with housing discrimination based on race.

oh yeah! CHAMPS!

interesting to see my view of Wemby sour in real time. also, league wants another game I guess? terrible reffing.

Who out there supporting our SWs, can I get an amen?

between the Giants walk-off grand salami after being down by 8 in the 8th inning this afternoon and this Knicks 29 pt comeback tonight, this might be the night to buy a powerball ticket or something really long-shotty

unbelievable. Amazin Knicks

Happy 90th birthday Cliff’s! 🎉🎈❤️ what better or more fitting way to celebrate a hardware-and-more store than with a drag show on Castro, blessed by Sister Roma no less. I 💜 SF

I love every single week's newsletter from @monteiro.bsky.social but this one had me legit nodding along - it's a timely reminder of what our humanity offers and requires. Highly recommend.

Great wine tasting at Wine Fare at the Catherine Clark Gallery. Outstanding wines, amazing women and queers making them plus words to live by Good job @louieseamus.bsky.social can’t wait for tomorrow’s pours!

Chatted with a lovely older woman in line at Safeway. 86, loves everybody except Trump. Told me several times about her neuropathy, sciatica and arthritis - “but I don’t like to tell folks about my health problems”. Enjoy your shrimp, Miss Maryanne ❤️

Terrible officiating at this Valks/Fever game ugh

New jacket to watch the game properly thanks for the tix, @lwaldal.bsky.social!

the world needs more hair antennas

a memory just surfaced of a heated seduction many years ago when I was in DC & in the process of a breakup. she gave me an envelope with jigsaw pieces inside of this Oscar Wilde quote & reader, it worked. it was just a sweet interlude, & search tells me she died in 2021. 🥂 Gaynell, forever hottie.

Nonono, this is a DIFFERENT lavender rose than the one I posted a couple days ago. deserves its own post!
