I honestly wish ’em well. Those of us who were born ‘n raised in SF remember that Good Vibes was founded as a womxn-owned/operated co-op, but (as Violet Blue has occasionally reminisced) it was bought out a loooooooong time ago and is now just corporate as hell.

I’m not expecting them to go back to their full co-op roots (though, that’d be great), but the workers taking the union vote is a great step in the right direction. ‘Til it’s made final, I’d recommend the Black womxn-owned/-operated Feelmore in Oakland. ♀️

This move puts Good Vibes on the short list of Mission businesses that will probably close forever soon.

Let’s go all the way,

San Francisco has always been about drugs, sex and Rock n’ Roll for me with a little bit of Allen Ginsburg.

We gave Wedding Licenses to Gay Couples when it was illegal across almost everywhere and I remember the rain and the lines wrapped around City Hall and people from Amsterdam ordering pizza for the crowd and flowers came from all over the World.

Why can’t we stand up like the men and women and Pick your Pronouns that we are ??

Seriously, let’s start having BOS hearings about founding a Legal Sex Industry here in San Francisco cause we’ve had an illegal one for how lonng I don’t know ?

Face it, you can count on Sex to stay in fashion.

You can count on San Francisco to have a naughty City reputation and we should cultivate it instead of denying it.

As Jerry Falwell once said on the stairs of San Francisco City Hall :

“If God does not reign down destruction on San Francisco then he owes Sodom and Gomorrah and apology !!”

Yep, said that he did.

Then, he went and spent a bunch of money at one of our best restaurants.

The next day before he left he paid a hefty hotel bill and I hope tipped generously.
