My Aussie friend is performing in Oakland tonight for the first ever full Metamorphic Ritual Theatre production in the US!
OEDIPUS TYRANNOS, featuring 3 Australian members of Metamorphic Ritual Theatre company -Sekhmet priest Orryelle as Oedipus, Giselle Sibyl as the SphinX and Medea as the Delphic Oracle-together with local SF performer Aradia as Hecate-Moerae- explore the co-weaving of Fate and Will in a new multimedia...

Sorry I couldn't post this before her memorial on Sunday. I wanted to, in case any of you were friends with her, but it would have taken more energy than I had. It was a very different kind of memorial, attended by dyke daddies and sex workers. Ivi was a kickass burlesque and exotic dancer, and I was fortunate enough to have worked with her... Read More
It always hurts to learn of someone's life ending prematurely and in such a sad way, but knowing that she was a friend of yours makes it that much more distressing. I'm so sorry.
Still en route back to SF from DomCon, LA, where I went to promote our Pro-Dommes and Beyond calendar, get interviewed, attend the workshops, fetish parties & other festivities!
I know I've been lagging on replying to comments and will try to get in touch with everyone as soon as I can.

There will be a special screening of spek.ter and Propagand[iv]a at Day of the Dead Cafe in Oakland tonight! The cafe has started showing local filmmakers' short films every Wednesday evening, and boy do I have some shorts to show! This is especially relevant since two SG members and one other SG are involved. Goatfish wrote and directed the award-winning horror short spek.ter, and Adara... Read More
start somewhere!
also - haven't forgotten your interest in the Katha - I can upload a copy of Eswaran's and Gambhirananda's versions; my own is undergoing major repaving, excavation, and like that there...
Everything cool happens on the West Coast damn it...give us a web link for us poor deprived souls that need our Thora fix! Any short horror film is bound to be good with your creative zing in it.
It's the only way I can relate. You know, 'cause they're talking about witches... a bunch of old lore 'n' stuff; plus, they're like an evil Spinal Tap. (And 'cause paganism is intertwined with witchcraft etc.) Yeah... OK. I'll be leaving now.
Of course you can come on Vacation w/ me and my crew...you are one of my fav people.
If the payday I have coming up works out, be ready to go in about a month...maybe a world cruise or backpack Europe. Either way we will be in Brazil for New Years and my B-Day.
I have a new phone #...it will be in your email, so call me.

I thought that was a fine bit of posturing to cover up a less than impressive social life. The tabloids are quite cross with me, I can tell you, as there are no scandals involving goats and heiresses swirling about the place.
I would take comments from the cats with a grain of salt, as they're not known for being very generous with their praise. I think they would see that as a very canine inclination, which pretty much paints me into a corner, but let's not get off on that tangent.
I'm going to see Throbbing Gristle at the Grand Regency Ballroom in San Francisco tonight.
TG will play one 75-minute set of various material spanning their truly innovative 30-year history.
The show will kick off the How to Destroy the Universe festival, which I will be playing on Sunday the 26th at 5LOWERSHOP in SF.
See you industrial music fans there.

Everyone present at the SF lesbian orgy with me and Ginary last night, represent! If you did it with us in the Lexington, against the car in front of the Lexington, or at the hotel, check in here and post your deepest thoughts.
Ginary and I also shot a set today, so if you missed out on the group girlsex you'll still... Read More
Getting a late start due to last night's Black Widows show but I'm about to head out to the Northern California Cherry Blossom Festival. If you can't go, perhaps you can settle for this set.
