Why agriculture as we know it is doomed to fail →
io9 has quietly replaced Jezebel in many ways as my Gawker Media favorite. And also, I TRY AND DO OKAY RIGHT THINGS. I also miss the farm. I guess soon I’ll have to give up the cheap beer..
Or, make my own?

Hell and a Hootenanny Horoscope Wednesday
TAURUS
April 20-May 20
Even the best of changes come with risk. Allow time and space for processing the crappy parts of what you’re going through so they don’t seep into the good stuff. Things are going in a good direction; trust it. (SFBG)
Sometimes I fly in my dreams. The ecstasy is almost unbearable as I soar high above the landscape. But there’s something I enjoy...

When Things Are Slow - 8 Tracks →
8Tracks is my new rabbit hole of the internet.
My senior year of high school, on some days, especially gray ones, the weird gnawing would start. Sometimes I’d drive my friends back or head out to work late. Wait until all the cars spilled out of the parking lot and sit on my hood, smoking a Camel Light of all things. I’d wander the halls and wave and float. Then I’d find my...

We've been had, Horoscope Wednesday
TAURUS
April 20-May 20
Talk it out, Taurus! This is the right time to overcome miscommunications and generally clarify things. If you’ve been struggling with internal confusion, use this energy to have a meaningful chat with yourself and figure stuff out. (SFBG-STFU!)
I find many of you Tauruses to be excessively self-effacing. It’s a trait that can be both endearing and maddening....

Heady Horoscope Thursday
TAURUS
April 20-May 20
If you are maxed out, don’t add more to your plate or you’ll find yourself messing things up big time. Don’t look for solutions when you’re overwhelmed or you’ll just create more troubles. (SFBG)
In a famous psychology experiment, test subjects watched a video of six people passing basketballs to each other. Their assignment was to count ...

Don't you like it on the sly?
It would be Horoscope Wednesday time, but the Bay Guardian is going to screw me over this week. It is the 12th, Jessica Lanyadoo. The TWELFTH. Maybe tomorrow, for what is bound to be a weary Thursday. I’ve been overflowing this week. Weird decisions, and narcissism, and something like a secret. Something I recently discovered, something I want, want, want terribly bad. More than I’ve...

Hide and seek Horoscope Wednesday
TAURUS
April 20-May 20
Make direct communication your BFF this week. By overcoming ambiguities, you will have more peace and less confusion! You will also have to be more responsible. The trade-off will be worth it, Taurus. (SFBG)
What confusing commotion would you like to walk away from and never come back to? What lessons have you learned so well that you’re overdue to graduate from...

And in Eleven
Poetry, definitely. Adventures in curiousity. Concerts, absolutely. Better whiskey, better beer. Caution meet wind. Butcher better things? Focus. Intention. Magic tricks. Bread, pie, pickling, preservation. Formalism. Clarity. Blurring limits (they’re blinds). Dance. Pants. Dresses. Hair cut crutchery. Owning zines, books, comics, good cheese, spices, cured meets. Banjo or, better, ukelele....
