Post pride. Updated: Wow. The amount of positive response I've received over my video (and subsequent rant) has been really eye opening. I'm amused that my most notable contribution to the conversation was #fuckdumpster (yes I hashtagged that shit), and I'm glad to hear that most of y'all support what I said, but what I'd really like is to ask everyone a favor. San Francisco, you can be better. I've seen it. Y'all are a force to be reckoned with. You've continuously defended civil rights for everyone in your courts as well as your streets, and in doing so set an example for not just the nation, but the world. So I'd like to ask you to set another example. For starters, come introduce yourselves. We'd love to meet you. Mutual humanization on both our parts will do so much for this problem. You've already begun with London Breed's new polystyrene ban, with the plastic bag ban, with spare the air days, and with your volunteers. But there's more. Our country's independence celebration is right around the corner. I'd love for all of you to to enjoy yourselves to fullest and best extent of your imaginations. But here's the thing. Tomorrow is my birthday. For real. And seriously, all I'd really like is to not clean up your impending mess from the upcoming 4th of July holiday on Tuesday morning. I and my colleagues would like to not wade through knee deep drifts of firework paper, to not repair all of the burned spots and fires, accidental and intentional, to not spend our day sweeping up the broken remains of your good time, because that really harshes our buzz and we already have a lot of work to do. So please, come to our parks! Enjoy yourselves! Just don't make us clean up after you, cuz ya momma don't fuckin work here (and even if she does she still don't wanna clean up after yo ass).
