So I did a short film earlier this year, an all-volunteer cast & crew, to protest the passage of Proposition 8 here in California, which bans same sex marriage in favor of opposite marriage. The Supreme Court just ruled it constitutional, and the finished PSA was uploaded just after the decision. Click the video for [...]

Because who wouldn’t? [video from Free Radio on VH1]

Well, they have the word “Lion” in the title, anyway. Bishop Allen – The Lion & the Teacup Animal Collective – Lion in a Coma Sam Roberts – Lions of the Kalahari

Yeah, twice in three days I made it over to The Troubadour. The previous post gushed plenty about Roberts’s amazing stage presence, but the photos I took are pretty and they need to go up. For a tiny club, the lighting was beautiful. The band started off the set with Love at the End of [...]

In which some things are explained, some questions are answered, and more questions arise, erm, therefrom. The point where the sun’s light had faded and the stars were just shining through had long been a favorite spot of Kyden’s. He still enjoyed coming to the clearing he’d found years before, even after he’d come to [...]

Another long pause made her ache to comfort him, to hold him and tell him it would all be fine, that they would get through this.
