You are not alone. My best girl died 2 summers ago and I am still not over it.
This is like saying post-AIDS people who became "forever condom users" or "forever PrEP takers" are a fascinating case study 🙄

❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 When MC Sway Calloway asked Liu what one word describes Oakland, she said, “Soul” — and the crowd went wild. 📝: @chroniclesofazu.bsky.social 📷: @estefancy.bsky.social oaklandside.org/2026/03/12/a...
Shout out to the PSA makers posting multiple warnings in multiple languages below every Flock camera in Oakland
Let's watch US media's misogyny, racism, ableism and regionalism work together: Will Lesly Gutierrez (a domestic abuse survivor who found refuge in the SF Bay Area) and her 2 sons receive as much national outcry as Liam Ramos and his dad did? It's not cold enough here for cute fuzzy hats so idk🤷♀️
Alysa Liu celebration rally in Oakland announced! ⛸️ Thursday March 12 at 12pm ✅️ Registrstion required 🥳 Doors open at 9am
"...her performance was an homage to where she’s from and what she’s been through. Bay Area ethos groomed her understanding of confidence. Of greatness. Of value. So Liu knows. It ain’t on you, it’s in you. And if ain’t in you, it doesn’t matter what’s on you." 💘 www.nytimes.com/athletic/706...
When I saw Alysa perform I was immediately reminded of something local Oakland artist Yasmin Arreola said to me about Town Girls back in 2020 during an Oakland Voices interview oaklandvoices.us/2020/04/27/n...
Shout out to gens z and millennial. You think you're tired of recessions? Gen X is so burntout since Reagan we are broken and brainwashed like a million Patty Hearsts robbing grocery stores instead of robber barons. Get off this ride and save yourselves. Invent a better future for yourselves.

Bay Area slang hella in the 2025 K-drama You and Everything Else: "I have hella. Many. Lots."
Wish more people knew about Kaho'olawe. When I was a kid the military bombing Hawaii for target practice was so normalized that the bombings were used as a backdrop in the 1983 Christmas episode of Magnum PI. I took this pic of Operation Sailor Hat ruins in 2021. www.civilbeat.org/2026/01/50-y...
There is a lot of paradigm shifting going on but lemme say growing up in the Midwest one of the most enduring regional phenomena was "Minnesota Nice" and it feels like may be witnessing the end of that era right now.
Incorporating the image of an iconic midwestern snow plow by the graphic designers at Burlesque is genius. burlesquedesign.com
We might watch it again if there's time but for now microdosing a rewatch with memes. Have you seen this tiktok? I'm not on there so a friend sent it to me. I die about the freckles 🚨⚠️🚨 contains spoilers do not watch before finishing the show
PSA: Do not do this. Do not hire a crew with chainsaws and wood chippers and call them tree trimmers. I am not going to snitch on the Oaklanders who did this. But this massacre could cost them over $1,500 in fines since they topped and ravaged multiple trees, some down to the trunk.
It really is beautiful out today. Just left the courthouse by the lake and saying a quick hello to the Women & Girl Workers of 1861 and 1865
Sheer delight to see my Prince-themed protest art in the hands of a short king irl 💜🩳👑
