Legendary Queer Party, Tubesteak Connection, has a Virtual Sweet 16 Celebration

The year 2004 seems especially far away nowadays. The first tech boom had just come to an inevitable crash a few years before and then crashes of actual visceral devastation happened in September of  2001. The energy in the city had been knocked down to an erratic strobe for many

BAS Pride 2016: Marching, Frisking, Policing at Civic Center; Hard French & Disco Daddy 6/25

Pride 2016 may be one of the most important in recent memory. Out of the tragedy of Orlando, a wave of solidarity has spread across the world and it has galvanized our community to respond with love, to speak out against our culture of violence, stand with our Latinx, Muslim,

BAS Up Your Alley 2015 In Pictures (NSFW)

Hey pervs!  Heralding the hotter days to come with hos, hard-ons and harnesses, the 30th Annual Up Your Alley Street Fair busted through SoMa like a well-lubed fist.  Perhaps because it was an milestone year, this year’s festivities felt more the raunch rodeos of yore than Dore’s of recent memory.

The Nite Owl: The Lucky Penny

It’s been a fairly cold summer inside and out this year, but in  the past weeks things have warmed up slightly, albeit encased in drizzle.  I’m riding the 38-Geary out of the Tenderloin and away from Bus Station John’s frisky disc-y, the Tubesteak Connection where a gaggle of fuzzy men

Filth and Frugality at Folsom Sunday 9/29

It’s hard to say why, but when it comes to queer civic celebrations, Folsom probably is at the top in the cash spent department. Not really the fair per se, but some of the surrounding parties require a small loan just to get inside. Thankfully, there are a few new

With every year in San Francisco comes one fog bank rolling in after the other, peppered with the occasional rainstorm or more often than not, that lovely little ice breeze that likes to momentarily stop your heart on it’s way through your body. And yet, seemingly as quickly as the
