Badass photo of actor Alycia Adame in "Richard O'Brien's The Rocky Horror Show" at City Lights Theater Company, San Jose, California. Company photographer Christian Pizzirani is a treasure, as is costume designer Lonie Fullerton.
But they would have no problem with Trump being discussed.

Millbrae is the center of recent mainland Chinese migration to the Bay Area. It has a big lunar new year event today. Streets are PACKED
People dressed up in traditional garb.
Nice to see a plurality of different new year celebrations. A lot of overlaps but some differences.
For example, most Chinese people eat sweet tangyuan for the 15th day of the lunar new year but the local SF Toishanese folks do it savory.

Now downgraded to an advisory.
My SF Sunset District peeps,stay prepared. Y'all know how Great Highway can flood quickly.

My favorite thing to do is to plan weekend trips with friends to neighboring cities outside SF with better immigrant food.
This weekend, a taco adventure to deep east Oakland and San Leandro; then Indian street BBQ kebabs in Fremont. (On different days)
