On the one hand, I'm glad right-wing conservatives are so scared that our country is evolving toward greater equality that they've installed an ethnofascist puppet dictator to serve billionaires. On the other hand, they're doing that.

Now the ex-president of the Kennedy Center has made a statement to rebut "false allegations" about her tenure. In writing this story, it was wild to try to summarize all the reporting the Chronicle has done on the center just since (checks notes) February: www.sfchronicle.com/entertainmen...

Saw this absolute delight last night. Sweet, horny, fragile high-school weirdos blurring lines between theater and life. Should return @ the Public or elsewhere, as recent Clubbed Thumb shows did. @loreningrid.bsky.social captures so vividly Dana's shifty mix of memory play and backstage comedy.
