‘What Happens

Now?’

Dear Editor:

Thank you for reporting on the ongoing elder abuse that is taking place in the euphemistically labeled “skilled nursing care facilities” here in Humboldt County (Profit and Pain, Nov. 17). What happens now?

This level of criminal neglect surely warrants intervention sooner than the legislative process allows. The timeline indicated by Assemblymember Wood, “we have to fight over and over for resources” is a long-term strategy, not a remedy for the su ering of the people trapped there now. Elder neglect is a crime as defined in our state’s penal code, yet there is no mention of charges against Mr. Rechnitz. Why?

The horrible conditions described within these facilities equate to what folks in disasters from fires and earthquakes experience. Citing COVID and sta ng shortages is unacceptable. Governor Newsom has the power to declare a disaster. FEMA resources to these sites would be an appropriate response right now.

I look forward to reading about the remedies, and improved care that will be provided for, those who, as Assemblymember Wood states, “really need our help.”

Sheila Evans, Eureka Editor:

Thank you NCJ for reminding readers, once again, what investigative journalism looks like with Linda Stansberry’s stunning report “Profit and Pain;” further exposing the Brius corporation’s exploitation of 80 percent of Humboldt County’s nursing home residents.

Stansberry’s detailed recounting of human su ering is horrific, disgraceful and should shock everyone’s conscience, especially those whose public careers require a constitutional oath framed by its commitment to the “general welfare” and “posterity.” Yet, chronic mistreatment and injury of the elderly is allowed to continue, year-after-year, just blocks from our Eureka home and the homes of county supervisors, city council members, teachers, academics and Humboldt County’s largest district of healthcare professionals.

With this level of corruption and cruelty perpetrated against Humboldt County’s most vulnerable elderly residents, how is it possible that our elected representatives, highly paid public o cials and senior

advocacy organizations are failing to take aggressive action?

Surely, it’s not because public o cials’ generous pensions become tax-free when investing in their own private, full-service retirement resorts with fully sta ed professional nursing care whenever needed, physical therapy, mental health services, exercise facilities, theaters, golf, tennis, spas and gardens.

Taxpayers subsidizing the tax-free pensions, “nonprofit” tax benefits, infrastructure, emergency services, public grants and low-interest loans for these resorts is desperately needed elsewhere to properly fund public nursing homes that benefit everyone and in-home care services where retirees and the disabled live longer, healthier, happier lives instead of being “Schlomoed” in Brius facilities.

As George Orwell observed, “… one thing which enlightened people, (the ‘o cial class’), seldom or never possess … is a sense of responsibility … our standard of living, and hence our ‘enlightenment’ demands that the robbery shall continue.”

George Clark, Eureka

Correction

A story in the Nov. 17, 2022, edition of the North Coast Journal headlined “Profit and Pain” in two references mistakenly identified the Assembly Bill that would have required skilled nursing facilities to spend a minimum of 85 percent of revenue received from MediCal and private payers on the direct care of residents. The bill was A.B. 2079. The Journal regrets the error.

Write a Letter!

Please make your letter no more than 300 words and include your full name, place of residence and phone number (we won’t print your number). Send it to letters@ northcoastjournal.com. The deadline to have a letter considered for the upcoming edition is 10 a.m. Monday. ●

After more than two decades of fighting to save a main artery of their cultures from feared ecological collapse, Klamath River tribes are on track to see the lower river run freely for the first time in more than a century by 2025.

On Nov. 17, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission gave its final nod to plans to remove four hydroelectric dams from the lower Klamath, putting the largest dam demolition project in U.S. history on course to begin next year.

The vote was unanimous.

“This moment is bigger than anyone could comprehend,” said Amy Cordalis, a Yurok tribal member and the tribe’s former general counsel, in a video recorded after the commission hearing and posted to Twitter. “For so long, our ancestors have fought for this moment. For so long, our families on the river have sacrificed. We’ve lost fish, we’ve lost people, we’ve cried, we’ve fought, and yet here we are in this historic moment where the world is rallying behind us and acknowledging our pain and saying, ‘No more.’ So now, we can transition to welcoming the salmon home, to preparing the river to accept those fish, and that’s how it should be. That’s an exercise of who we are as Indigenous people of the Klamath River.”

The vote — which o cially approves a license surrender from the dam’s owner, the Berkshire Hathaway-owned PacifiCorp, to the states of California and Oregon and the nonprofit Klamath River Renewal Corporation that was formed to oversee removal — is seen as the last major regulatory hurdle remaining for the project. The approval came 20 years after the dams were widely blamed for causing the poor water quality that led to a massive fish kill, with 35,000 to 70,000 adult salmon washing up on the river’s banks in September of 2002.

Despite salmon runs in the river having declined to an estimated 5

percent of their historic averages amid deteriorating conditions — prompting the Yurok and Karuk tribes to repeatedly cancel recreational and commercial seasons for the fishery their people have subsisted on since time immemorial — there is optimism that restoring the river’s natural flow through dam removal will have profound impacts. It will open some 300 miles of spawning habitat to salmon and steelhead in the main stem and tributaries beyond the dams, decrease water temperatures and algal blooms and improve water quality, according to repeated studies.

“We know other dam removal projects in the West have seen dramatic beneficial responses for fisheries and wildlife, and the Klamath River has tremendous potential to recover and rebuild as this work is done,” North Coast Congressmember Jared Hu man said following the vote. “Congratulations to all of those who have worked to right this wrong and restore balance to the river.”

It was ultimately the science — reinforced over years of work by the tribes and environmental nonprofits — showing both the harm caused by the four dams and the restorative potential of their removal that swayed the commission to approve the project, despite objections from some upriver interests concerned about potential liabilities.

Before the Nov. 17 vote, FERC Commissioner Allison Clements said the balance clearly tipped in favor of removal.

“I recognize that the decision to remove hydropower project dams a ects many people, and that this approval is not without opposition,” she said. “However, the record reflects overwhelming support for removal. I am convinced that the important environmental, cultural and economic benefits that will be realized make removal in the public interest.”

For the Karuk and Yurok tribes, self-described river people for whom the Klamath and its salmon are central to their cultures, diets and economies, and who carry the scars of past removal agreements that have collapsed, the Nov. 17 vote was described as “mon umental,” a final tipping point toward removal.

The tribes were driving forces behind the landmark 2010 removal agreement, which brought in upriver irrigators and ranchers in an attempt to forge a comprehensive solution for the entire Klamath basin but ultimately died on the vine when Congress failed to pass the legislation necessary to move it forward. They were also integral in resuscitating that agreement in a significantly scaledback form in 2016. And when a FERC ruling in 2020 undercut that accord, tribal officials and Native activists were at the forefront of a multi-pronged push to get Berkshire Hathaway executives to the negotiating table to revise the agree ment to address FERC’s concerns regard ing potential liability, cost overruns and PacifiCorps’ ongoing responsibility.

The push included a Congressional

hearing helmed by Huffman that took PacifiCorp executives to the proverbial mat for deteriorating conditions on the river, social media campaigns aimed at raising awareness, days of action aimed at raising pressure on Berkshire Hatha way and, finally, a Klamath River tour for the company’s executives that was led by tribal officials and interrupted by tribal activists. It all resulted in what was described as a “perfect storm” that brought Berkshire Hathaway to the negotiating table. Once there, the company’s executives found the science was sound and removal was both in the company’s interest and the right thing to do — a sentiment famed Berkshire Ha thaway Chair Warren Buffett expressed in a press release announcing the deal, saying he recognized the “importance” of dam removal for tribal people and future generations.

The final agreement will see the dams removed using $450 million already raised for the purpose — $200 million from PacifiCorp ratepayers and $250 mil lion in water bonds authorized by Cali fornia’s Proposition 1 — with California and Oregon pledging another combined

$45 million to cover potential cost over runs or liabilities. The states and Berk shire Hathaway agreed to split any costs exceeding that moving forward.

With the Nov. 17 vote, preparation for removal will begin early in 2023, including road and bridge improvements needed for the massive undertaking. The Copco 2 dam will then be the first to go in the summer of 2023, with removal of the other three — Iron Gate, Copco 1 and J.C. Boyle — slated to be completed by the close of 2024.

After years of disappointments that necessitated cautious, conditioned statements, the finality of FERC’s Nov. 17 decision was underscored by the exu berance of the ones from tribal officials that followed.

“The Klamath salmon are coming home,” proclaimed Yurok Chair Joseph James. “The people have earned this vic tory and with it, we carry on our sacred duty to the fish that have sustained our people since the beginning of time.”

Karuk Tribal Chair Russell ‘Buster’ At tebery said it was a victory “well earned” by the thousands who fought for the river.

Klamath Justice Coalition co-founder Molli Myers noted that FERC’s decision came near the 20th anniversary of the catastrophic fish kill.

“After the 2002 Fish Kill, we commit ted ourselves to defending our river and our cultures no matter what it would take,” Myers said. “That kind of extraor dinary commitment by ordinary Indians is what led to this victory.”

Back on Twitter after the ruling, after posting the video of herself digesting the moment, Cordalis posted a picture of federal officers in a boat near the Klamath River’s mouth, taking several Native people into custody for fishing.

“Thinking of my Great Grandma Geneva and how she told me it was my time to fight for the River,” Cordalis wrote. “This victory is for you Granny, and all the ones we have lost along the way. #TheSalmonAreComingHome.” l

‘We Will Not Hide’

By the Eureka Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence views@northcoastjournal.com

These past few difficult weeks bring tears to our veils. Our hearts are heavy with painful pulsing brought by violence. Hurting people brought hate and violence to our Oct. 23 Redwood Pride event at Jefferson Community Center, shouting at participants. Hurt ing people brought hate into our civic centers and continue to shout deeply misguided, privileged attacks into the echo chambers of the internet. We feel vulnerable because we are human. Human can be a very hard thing to be sometimes. We need each other because we are the mirrors for our own humanity. Even when the pain of it all feels like too much sometimes, we see you and you are loved. You, our beloved Dearly Queerlies, are who we are always looking for!

Your “Queer AF” fashion and leather details,

Your bumper sticker and flashes of flag,

Your tattoos and tastefully French tucked T-shirt,

Your beautiful boots and Pride edi tion sneakers,

Your comfy flannel and practical old pick-up truck,

The way you say, “they” when you hand off a coffee at the Old Town cafe,

The way you genuinely connect as you help a fellow queer at the store checkout.

We see you.

We live for the eyes you make at us, that brave wink you gave when we wondered about one another on the sidewalk, the smiling nod you offer even though we may not be your type, even though you don’t know our names. You are beautiful souls; you are worth fighting for! You deserve a Big Gay Place in this community, a place to be your Fabulous Self, and we are so, so thankful you live here in Humboldt with us!

Thank you for being so kind to check in on one another. Thank you for being brave to continue to show up to our queer gathering places. Thank you for nodding on the streets, for hanging flags and for every way, every day, that you continue to express. “We Are Here, We Are Queer and We Will Keep Loving Each Other!”

“Joy! More joy! Always joy!”

The message above is the letter that we wrote ahead of the Nov. 20 Trans Day of Remembrance. It’s the message we sent out the evening of the Nov. 19, hours before the anti-queer mass shoot ing at Club Q in Colorado. In light of this, and the violence and fear-mongering in our community, we would like to em phasize that our collective resistance is what is needed most. Across history, our rainbow community has had each other’s backs, hearts and spirits. From Comp ton’s Cafeteria to the Stonewall Uprising to the White Night Riots to Club Pulse

Sunday night’s candlelight vigil following the mass shooting at an LGBTQ+ club in Colorado Springs, held at the Humboldt County Courthouse.

to now, from Third World Gay Liberation to ACT Up to Queer Nation to Bash Back!, we must stand together.

“Queer power, queer pride, we will not hide.”

In these moments we must renew our shared commitment to freedom of expression and identity through acts of solidarity and resistance. For those capa ble of doing so: We must show up and show out when violence, fear-mongering and other forms of bigotry that lead to violence, would have us disappear. Your Sisters call upon you now to do this.

Two of our abbey’s most solemn duties happen around this time of year, Trans Day of Remembrance and World AIDS Day. These are events that honor those whose lives have been lost to violence, lies, shame, hate and neglect. Our vigils bring the memory and spirit of those lost to share in the love of community. To be seen, known and not forgotten. To be given dignity.

And you all showed out in a transfor mative outpouring of love and solidarity. Sunday night we estimate well over 200 people gathered with candles, song,

voice and remembrance on the court house lawn. A gathering that happened in spite of fears of disruption. Together, we read the names of 331 trans people across the world and locally who were lost to us, as well as the five names of those taken at Club Q. You saw each other, held each other, honored each other, grieved with each other and loved each other.

The light of our gathered candles shall live on as a light for our community. A reminder that we are never alone and we are never forgotten. Together, the light of our truth shall burn brighter in the face of hatred, violence and death. A light of comfort and a beacon of hope. May our new ancestors who you helped transcend the veil continue to protect and guide us. Ah-men. Ah-wom en. And ahll-the-rest-of-us.

Feds Take on Fair Embezzlement Case

The investigation and possible prosecution of a 47-year-old woman accused of embezzling from the Humboldt County Fair Association and a Eureka nonprofit are being taken over by federal agencies, according to Ferndale Police Chief Ron Sligh.

Nina Tafarella, 47, was arrested Nov. 15 by Ferndale police at Bear River Casino on suspicion of embezzling more than $20,000 from a Eureka nonprofit that provides youth enrichment programs and an untold sum from the fair association. But Sligh said that after conferring with the FBI, the Humboldt County District Attorney’s Office and Eureka police, “we decided the FBI will take the lead on it and prosecute federally.”

Sligh said the decision was made because the FBI and the U.S. Attorney’s Office of Northern California have more experience with financial crimes.

Tafarella, who has not been charged

with a crime stemming from her arrest, was released from jail on her own recog nizance Nov. 18, according to Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office online records.

The case spawned out of Eureka, where, according to EPD spokesperson Brittany Powell, police believe Tafarella embezzled approximately $23,000 from a nonprofit that provides youth arts programs. Powell said the embezzlement is believed to have taken place over the course of about a year, beginning in February of 2021, through Tafarella’s capacity as a bookkeep er for the nonprofit. EPD had been inves tigating the case since late May, Powell said, and obtained a warrant for Tafarella’s arrest Nov. 1.

Sligh said he first became aware of EPD’s case around Nov. 10 when contact ed by Humboldt County Fair Association General Manager Rich Silacci, who reached out after learning of the warrant for Tafarella, who’d also been serving as the association’s bookkeeper since February of

2021. Silacci reported that Tafarella worked at the association and had access to its finances. Sligh said the fair association be gan an audit of its books, noticed discrep ancies and what he believes is evidence Tafarella embezzled from it, too.

Officials have declined to say how much they believe was taken from the fair association, which has long struggled to gain a complete, accurate picture of its finances and has not had an external audit done since 2011.

In October of 2021, fair administrator Katherine Ziemer wrote the board of directors on the subject of the fair’s fi nances, saying she understood and shared directors’ frustration on the subject. In the letter, Ziemer notes the association had hired a “very capable bookkeeper” who was working to get up to speed on the “fair-specific knowledge” needed to

make sense of the organization’s finances, which have been described as “extreme ly complex, with a 12-page listing of sub accounts.”

Tafarella’s hire also came at a point when the fair association was struggling financially and teetering on the edge of insolvency amid the pandemic, kept afloat by an influx of hundreds of thousands of dollars in COVID relief funds and a county grant.

As to the ongoing investigation, Sligh said he appreciates the assistance of the FBI, the DA’s Office and EPD. Moving for ward, Sligh said Ferndale police will assist if asked but the federal agencies will take the lead of both Eureka and Ferndale’s investigations.

Mushroom Mania

And a new toxic species in town

By Mark Larson getout@northcoastjournal.com

Fun indeed. When the rain finally arrived this fall, my wife and I added mushroom hunting to our daily walks. Recently we have found 10 or more species at most of our favorite locations, like Sue-meg State Park (where collecting mushrooms is prohibited, by the way).

But on Sunday, Nov. 13, we found about 350 local mushroom species all in one place: Arcata’s Community Center, at the 44th annual Humboldt Bay Mycological Society Mushroom Fair, first started in 1978.

“After doing virtual fairs in 2020 and 2021, it was incredibly rewarding and inspiring to be back to our in-person fair,” said volunteer organizer Rebecca Twiss. “The energy and enthusiasm, and actual joy, was palpable. It was astonishing how many people attended — 2,100, which tops our previous attendance record of 1,600.” Twiss chalks it up to enthusiasm for live community events, and well as the growing popularity of mushrooms over the past few years. “We sold out of our club’s annual T-shirt very early in the day and I’ve heard from a number of people that the parking situation was so bad that they gave up and didn’t even attend the fair.”

Arriving a little after 11 a.m., my wife and I put on our masks, paid our $5 entrance fee and joined the record crowd enjoying

all things mycological, including: several large tables covered with more than 300 local mushroom species collected by fair organizers and labeled “Edible” or “Toxic,” vendors with grow-your-own mushroom farms, mushroom-themed art and T-shirts, a toxic mushroom-education table and a bring-in-your-mushroom identification table with experts. And a few folks in mushroom attire. The family-friendly event also had a scavenger hunt for children and a children’s Myco-Kids Workshop with Kristan Trunzo.

Our first stop was the popular “Mush rooms of the Redwood Coast” lecture by expert mycologist Noah Siegel (author of an excellent mushroom ID book by the same name), who showed his high-quality photos of mushroom species typically found in locations with redwoods (“not a lot of edibles”), Monterey Cypress, spruce, live oak and tanoak/madrone trees.

According to Siegel, 27 years of mush room show lists reveal fair organizers have collected, identified and shown more than 1,200 local mushroom species. Evidently, Humboldt has a high number of local mushroom species, partly due to the wide variety of growing conditions. Many mush room species don’t show up for a while and re-appear in widely varying years — more research is needed as to why.

The number of mushroom species in this year’s fair turned out to be better than expected. “In the history of our fair, not including our virtual fairs, we’ve had as few

as 186 species and as many as 470, with a mean of 302,” said Twiss.

“With the rain not coming until November, we were seeing mushroom numbers typical of the first couple weeks in October,” said Siegel. “Late rain and cold weather do not make for good mushroom seasons.”

Other lectures included “Biolumines cent and Fluorescent Fungi,” with Alan Rockefeller and “Making Scents of Fungi: from Stench to Perfume,” with Christian Schwarz.

With Terry Pratchett’s memorable quote in our heads (“All mushrooms are edible. Some are edible only once”), we next stopped at the display of local toxic mush rooms and visited with longtime Mush room Fair volunteer and medical doctor Bruce Kessler. Kessler was eager to share his expertise on toxic mushrooms and likely medical outcomes if they’re ingested. “I have been manning the toxic mushroom table at the Mushroom Fair essentially since we have been having mushroom fairs. … I consider it to be my contribution to com munity preventive medicine,” Kessler said.

“What was different for me at this year’s mushroom fair was that for the first time I had to warn people that Amani ta phalloides — the Death Cap — has arrived locally,” said Kessler, who’d previ ously been relieved not to have to warn mushroom hunters in Humboldt. “When you hear of someone on the West Coast dying of mushroom poisoning it is almost always due to accidentally eating Amanita phalloides.” Never before found in our county, the deadly fungi popped up Shelter Cove and Eureka, where Humboldt County Mycological Society members found them. “At the fair this year, we had an Amani ta phalloides mushroom on display that was collected in Eureka.”

While many of our friends do iden tify and eat mushrooms they find, my wife and I don’t because we’re amateurs in mushroom identification. Instead, we photograph our mushroom finds, identify them using the free iNaturalist app on our smartphones and share our photos on Facebook.

And we follow Kessler’s final advice to us: “I would caution anyone considering collecting wild mushrooms to eat to learn how to identify mushrooms in general and Amanita mushrooms specifically,” said Kes sler. “As they say, there are old mushroom hunters, and bold mushroom hunters, but no old, bold mushroom hunters.” l

Sport Crab Trap Restrictions to End Monday

By Kenny Priest fishing@northcoastjournal.com

In a press release issued Monday, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife will lift the recreational crab trap restriction in fishing zones 1 and 2, which run from the California/Ore gon border south to Point Arena, on Nov. 28 at 9 a.m. In the meantime, recreational crabbers that take Dungeness crab by other methods, including hoop nets and crab snares, are still allowed during the temporary trap restriction. The balance of the state, from Point Arena south to the USA/Mexico border (zones 3-6), is continuing the temporary recreational crab trap restriction due to the presence of humpback whales and the potential for entanglement from trap gear.

On the commercial side, the Northern California commercial Dungeness crab season has been delayed due to poor crab meat quality test results for Mendocino, Humboldt and Del Norte counties (zones 1 and 2). The commercial Dungeness crab fishery in this area is delayed until 12:01 a.m. on Friday, Dec. 16, pending another round of meat quality testing. If results indicate good quality, the fishery will open and be preceded by a 64-hour gear setting period that will begin at 8:01 a.m. on Tues day, Dec. 13.

The commercial Dungeness crab fish ery in fishing zones 3-6 will also remain delayed due to presence of high numbers of humpback whales and the potential for entanglement with lines and traps in this fishery. CDFW anticipates the next risk as sessment will take place on or before Dec. 7, at which time CDFW Director Charlton H. Bonham will re-evaluate the temporary recreational crab trap restriction and com mercial fishery delay.

The Oceans

Eureka

Ocean conditions have been excellent

all week, but that looks to change by Friday when seas are forecast to reach 11 feet. Crabbing has been really good up and down the coast, and Eureka was no exception. “It’s been great all week, but Monday was exceptional with at least 10 keepers per hoop net,” said Tim Klassen of Reel Steel Sport Fishing. “We’re soaking the nets a little longer now with hanging bait, and that seems to be working. Boats are fishing both sides of the entrance and having success from 40 to 100 feet of wa ter.” The rockfish season will run through December with no depth restrictions.

Shelter Cove

According to Jake Mitchell of Sea Hawk Sport Fishing, ocean conditions were perfect last week. “Some of the best con ditions we’ve had all year,” said Mitchell. “We’ve had limits of rockfish, lings and crabs each day. Most of the time has been spent at Rogers Break and Gorda. There are still a few Bluefin around, but they’ve moved a little south. One was landed out of Fort Bragg on Saturday.”

Brookings

“Calm ocean conditions allowed boats to get out over the weekend, with good action on lingcod and rockfish,” said Andy Martin of Brookings Fishing Charters. “Lingcod are in shallow water, staging to spawn. Big swells return this week. Sport crab season opens Dec. 1 on the Oregon side of the border. Surfperch continue to bite at Lone Ranch and Crissy Field.

The Rivers:

As of Sunday, all North Coast rivers subjected to low flow fishing closures, including the main stem Eel, South Fork

Eel, Mad, Smith, Redwood Creek and Van Duzen, are closed. The Mad River from the mouth to 200 yards upstream, the main stem Eel from the South Fork to Cape Horn Dam and the Mattole River are all closed until Jan. 1, 2023. The Department of Fish and Wildlife will make the informa tion available to the public no later than 1 p.m. each Monday, Wednesday and Friday as to whether any river will be closed to fishing. The rivers can be opened at any time. The low flow closure hotline for North Coast rivers is (707) 822-3164. For more information, visit fishingthenorth coast.com/2021/09/22/2021-2022-lowflow-information-for-north-coast-rivers/.

Chetco/Elk/Sixes

The Chetco is low and clear, but full of salmon on the lower river reports Martin. “Bobber fishing remains the best bet with low flows, although the gear restriction has been lifted,” said Martin. “Above Loeb Park, the spawn is in full swing, with salm on spawning in nearly every tail out. Rain is expected this weekend, which should give anglers another chance at drifting the Chetco, Elk and Sixes.”

We’ve strip-mined the catalog of fall and winter flavors like caramel, apple, gingerbread and sugar cookie, but that doesn’t mean we’re out of ideas. Indeed, the wonders of the season and invaluable feedback from our sometimes terrifying customers are endless sources of inspira tion. Keep your eye out for these instant seasonal classics test marketing at a Star bucks near you.

Falling Maple Leaves Latte

Smell that? It’s the scent of a crisp autumn day wafting from your cup. Take a sip of espresso and steamed milk, a shot of real Vermont Maple syrup and, mmm, pthpthp, yeah, those are actual leaves in there. Authentic, unwashed autumn leaves — like licking an un-raked lawn.

Cozy Cardigan Macchiato

What’s more autumnal than wrapping your hands around a warm mug and wrapping yourself in a beloved sweater? Nothing. That’s why we’ve created this hot espresso and a dash of steamed milk crisscrossed with Cozy Cardigan Caramel™ syrup, a lightly salted caramel with a hint of that musty smell from the back of the closet where your sweaters sat all summer. It’s the scent of fall, all right.

Mushroom Hunter’s Mocha

Plenty of health-conscious people are

switching from traditional coffee to an immunity-boosting version made from dried mushrooms but this isn’t that. This is a tempting mocha with regular espresso, your choice of milk and our house choc olate syrup, topped with whipped cream and shavings from some forest fungi for aged by your neighbor who just took up mushroom hunting and brought some by. We’re no experts but he says he’s, like 90 percent sure these are fine. Smells earthy!

Thanksgiving Flat White

Espresso and steamed milk with mi cro-foam get the holiday dinner treatment with all the roasted meat, sage dressing, gravy and green bean casserole flavor with our Turkey Feast™ syrup. All the trimmings in liquid form with a slice of canned cran berry sauce floating on top. What? Is it the cranberry sauce? Because we can swap in an extra shot of gravy instead. Ask for the secret menu!

Venti Void

On top of the planet being on fire and democracy dangling like plastic mistletoe from a thumbtack, the holidays can be stressful. Sometimes we don’t have time for the self-care we need, like sleep, exer cise or standing in the backyard to stare straight up at the sky like a penguin in the barren Antarctic. Enter the Venti Void. Lightly pine scented, it’s actually an empty cup made from recycled soundproof foam so you can pop the lid and scream into it as long and as loud as you need to. There you go, let it out.

Black Friday Extra Black Cold Brew

This is a deeper than deep roast that’s both rich and bracing. It’s also strong enough to propel you through the barri

caded doors of a Target at midnight. Does it have a teeny bit of PCP in it? I dunno. Do you want that 72-inch flatscreen? Then don’t ask stupid questions.

Wild Turkey Steamer

Ah, this one has been a favorite among staff as our attempts to form a union were quashed by corporate, and it should get you through holiday gatherings where you’ll be subjected to your relatives’ ab horrent politics and comments about your “lifestyle.” We pour four fingers of Wild Turkey into a frothing pitcher and kind of swish it around the espresso machine’s steam wand while making a fake shrrshshrrsh sound before dumping it into a festive, red holiday cup with snowflakes and a very snug lid.

Is This Christmas Enough for You People

According to the flood of ranting emails, the red and green cups still aren’t enough explicit Christmas cheer for some of our Fox News-addicted cus tomers looking for something to scream at our cashiers about now that mask ing ordinances have ended. Well, how about if the staff dresses up to perform a living Nativity — oh, we’re absolutely getting sued — and relays your order via Gabriel’s trumpet? How about if a 42-year-old barista named Todd wrapped in swaddling cloth like baby Jesus passes your peppermint mocha or whatever through the drive-thru window, huh? Is that enough Christmas spirit for you?

You Know What? Fine,

It’s a War on Christmas Breve OK, so you don’t actually want any of that so much as you want to complain about the “War on Christmas” and rend your clothing over your imagined religious persecution every time someone says, “Happy holidays.” Got it. Here’s a pitchblack cup with a glossy embossed goat’s head and pentagram to support your insane and low-key antisemitic conspiracy theory that a global cabal is threatening the very existence of this country’s most heavily marketed annual sales generator. Is that the blood of infants mixed in with the espresso and half and half? It’s not but that won’t stop you from going live on Facebook to shriek that it is. Well, here you go. Hail Satan! l

MURPHY’S MARKETS PARTNERS with Del Reka Coors for St. Jude Children’s Hospital

Rounding up? We’re not talking cattle or math, but rather rounding up your next grocery purchase to the nearest dollar for charity. Among much of Murphy’s other charitable giving, this year Murphy’s earned over $5,803 to give to St. Jude Hospital. Murphy’s Markets partners every year with Del Reka Coors in donating to St. Jude. We talked to three cashiers who rounded up the most customer donations this year.

When asked about her secret for getting customers to donate, Zoraida Ouellette at Westwood Murphy’s says, “I have a friend whose daughter went to St. Jude’s Hospital. They paid for everything; it’s an amazing organization and I put my heart there. We have nice customers and they give, give, give. Some customers give $25.”

Jenifer Sherman-Ruppe, a cashier at Cutten Murphy’s adds, “I just always make sure to ask. I can’t believe how generous this community is. They come in for one drink and end up donating $2 or more.”

When customers asked why they should donate, Jaime Graves at Sunnybrae Murphy’s had a great answer, explaining that “while some people budget monthly donations to causes they care about, many of us cannot afford that commitment. When enough people participate by leaving nickels and dimes, change can create change.”

Murphy’s Markets gives thanks to all our customers for the donations and to our amazing employees for pushing the cause. We look forward to participating again next year!

Ilike it when people get together to share a table, I really do. For years, though, I struggled with Thanksgiving and not just because of the whitewashed history of the holiday. In 1999, when I was 17, my mother died on Thanksgiving night, having succumbed to the cancer that had been eating her away for a year and a half. We were very close, sometimes I think we still are, in those cold and lonely moments late at night when I stare at the ceiling and consider the movements of my own life. Sometimes I’ll see a lovely flower and think of putting it in her hair. I was her firstborn, and there was a secret language between us, and us only. I still feel the pain of its extinction. So, yeah. I don’t like Thanksgiving too much. But I am still thankful for a great many things, for my beloved friends and family, some of whom I have the priceless good fortune to share a table with this Thursday. I have learned to be thankful for grief and heart break, because in their pain I am reminded I have a great capacity for love, which is a blessing. I am thankful for the vast majority of humanity, who wake up every day and do what they think is best, from the few who sacrifice everything in the hopes of building a better and more just world, to the many who just keep on keeping on, day to day. I am rereading Moby Dick and so I am daily thankful for the vast world of brilliant literature living in the eternal liturgy of our collective human experience. I am thankful for music and for the way it moves me unlike anything else in the world. My happiest experiences have always happened on one side of the stage or the other. I am happy for the edges of the day, lit up with a fiery glory beyond my vocabulary to sufficiently praise. I revel in the night and for the opportunity

Thanks

to walk through it and feel its subtle wonders. I am so thankful for this chaotic and messy life, in which I am constantly amazed by the beauty of its creatures. And finally, I am so very thankful for you, dear reader. It has been a rare joy to talk to you weekly and I thank you for sitting through my bouts of feisty and obnoxious banter, and still coming back for more. From the bottom of my heart, take care of each other.

Friday

It’s a Black Friday tradition among certain lefties to sit out this monstrous bacchanal of capital by not spending any money. And while I understand that urge, I also have a belief that where you spend your cash is what matters. I would have been dropping mine ($5), at the door of Synapsis at 7 p.m., for the all-ages Goth Night curated by DJs DastBunny, Zero One and Vulvadon Unfortunately, the event has been cancelled. Thankfully, I have another option, and will consider checking out the Logger Bar tonight at 9 p.m. where folky pop and rock act Wild Abandon are putting on a free one.

Saturday

Jamaica’s legendary albino emcee and toaster King Yellowman will be posting up at the Arcata Theatre Lounge tonight at 7 p.m. His appearance altered by jaw cancer surgery, Yellowman still cuts a truly unique figure among the few living veterans of the island’s OG dancehall scene. Expect catchy hooks and ribald lyrics about everyone’s favorite bedroom activity second to sleep ($20).

Sunday

It’s your last chance to head off to see the Wizard. Which wizard? Why the won derful Wizard of Oz. I once read that L. Frank Baum’s masterpiece is unique among fantasy works because while there are plenty of women in positions of power, (including some rather famous witches named for the cardinal directions), there is no patriarchal figure, the titular wizard himself being a conman. This is likely due to the influence of his mother-in-law, the feminist author and activist Matilda Joslyn Gage. Anyway, food for thought if you choose to attend either the matinee (2 p.m.) or evening showing (7 p.m.) of the musical at the Arkley Theatre for

the Performing Arts. ($19-$42, $17 for children 12 and under).

Monday

Tucson, Arizona’s Lenguas Largas is an experimental, art-rock garage band with a custom sound that mixes electronic flourish es with DIY, lo-fi production, jangly guitars and sing-song vocal harmonies. Kind of a cool trick, actually. You can catch these desert creatures over at the Siren’s Song Tavern tonight at 8 p.m. As I have no idea what the cover charge is, bring some cash.

Tuesday

Indie rock star Doug Martsch is bringing his influential band Built to Spill to Arcata tonight, for an 8 p.m. gig at the Arcata The atre Lounge ($34). Having remained consis tently popular both live and in the studio for the better part of three decades, there’s

a better-than-decent chance the band’s gig tonight will sell out, so snag those tickets soon. I believe this is Spill’s first tour since the pandemic, so demand will likely be high.

Wednesday

Multi-instrumentalist Grahame Lesh, son of Grateful Dead bassist Phil Lesh, has become a dependable figure in the Dead-ad jacent jam scene. Tonight at Humbrews, you can catch Midnight North, the band he fronts, as the group supports its newest release, There’s Always a Story to Tell. Along for the ride is RIVVRS, whose sound falls squarely into the indie folk genre. 8 p.m. ($20, $18). l

Collin Yeo (he/him) wishes that all of you hurting out there find the right conduit to shift the pain. He lives in Arcata.

Food, Music and Corruption

By John J. Bennett screens@northcoastjournal.com

There is a theme at work here, whether by pure happenstance or more ominous cosmic coincidence, that seems unlikely at first blush. But, in this disparate collection — a quasi-verité examination of investigative journalism, a darkly comic satire of celebrity cookery and an impossibly precise character piece rendered as waking-life ghost story — there lurk shared motifs of power as catalyst to abuse, the bleeding of joy from art as a corollary of that abuse and of the possible impossibility of recompense, balance or justice in the aftermath of such transgressions.

One of the only good things to have emerged from the 2016 presidential election, which, in hindsight, e ectively destroyed my pursuit of physical fitness and any pretense of moderation regarding the consumption of alcohol, not to mention threatening the fundament of American democracy and many of our notions of equanimity and representation — is a reinforced belief in and fight for transparency, in exposing to the light and air the necrotic monsters who have so long hidden their malfeasance in the moldering halls of influence. And from within that vital shift has come a minor renaissance of art — movies, for the purposes of this discussion — that strives to render some of the stories of that vast and varied conflict as immediate and personal; The Post (2017), Kitty Green’s The Assistant (2019), Borat Subsequent Moviefilm (2020) and Bombshell (2019) being a few of the more successful examples.

SHE SAID, directed by Maria Schrader, scripted by Rebecca Lenkiewicz and based on the work of Megan Twohey, Jodi Kantor and Rebecca Corbett, is an addition to the growing canon of anti-establishment, voice of the voiceless explorations of the systemic abuse and injustice that became normalized, particularly in the 20th century American capitalist corruption of government and popular art/entertainment. It focuses on the professional e orts and, to a lesser extent the personal lives of Kantor (Zoe Kazan) and Twohey (Carey Mulligan) as they undertook an investigation of Miramax impresario Harvey Weinstein’s repugnant legacy of rape and coercion (a

microcosm of greater endemic rot) for the New York Times in 2016. Faced with threats of anonymous violence, surveillance by Weinstein’s hired agents (a detail strangely overlooked in the movie), the journalists persevered, eventually piercing the veil of non-disclosure agreements and intimidation that allowed a scumbag who produced movies to behave like a lumpy Caligula. While the leads here, as well as the supporting cast, do some astoundingly naturalistic work and Schrader creates a busy, lived-in world within which the narrative unfolds, I can’t help but feel the movie is more important as a contribution to the cultural conversation than as a work of art. Despite the verisimilitude of the performances (including Ashley Judd as herself), there is something slightly distancing, almost antiseptic about the execution of the piece as a whole; it should still be considered essential viewing. R. 129M. BROADWAY.

THE MENU would not seem to belong on the same shelf, or even in a conversation, with She Said. The dark comedy about an impossibly pretentious restaurant — 12 seats, five-figure prix-fixe chef’s menu, all ingredients micro-local; something like Noma with even less playfulness — is television veteran Mark Mylod’s feature debut, from an original screenplay by Seth Reiss and Will Tracy. It ventures gently into the realms of horror, social commentary and slapstick, settling somewhat uneasily into an almost-comfortable intersection of them all.

From the perspective of Margot (Anya Taylor-Joy), the somewhat reticent dinner companion of repellent foodie-lout Tyler (Nicholas Hoult), The Menu uses the restaurant’s isolated, intimate dining room as a forum for the redress of contemporary upper-crust social ills. Chef Slowik (Ralph Fiennes) has curated the guest list almost as carefully as his menu, with a perhaps too pointed message in the o ng. With occasional moments of laugh-out-loud parody, the doling out of delicious justice and a tremendous cast (Taylor-Joy continues to cement her status as a deeply sophisticated goer while Hoult proves again to be one of the current best at taking the piss out of his own celebrity),

The Menu harkens back to the some of the last century’s classics of social-climber takedowns while adding cogent commentary about our unique, often distasteful current moment. R. 106M. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK.

TÁR, writer/director Todd Field’s first movie in 16 years, undoubtedly the bestmade, most Important entry in this list, will continue to live in the memory as an almost-inscrutable, indelible, probably perfect cautionary tale. Something like a ghost story set amid the impenetrable world of Western classical music, it is, indeed, every bit as good as the rumors would have it. Lydia Tár (Cate Blanchett, one the best living cinema performers, bar none) reigns coolly among the foremost conductors in the world, the Berlin Philharmoniker her long-desired and hard-won fief. But in a world of social media, diminished secrecy and justice-war, Tár is dogged by her own forcefulness, the ghosts of her past and her own irresistible urge to transgress. Like the real-life monster of She Said and Fiennes’ chef-penitent in The Menu, she has conflated success with the pursuit of art and, in so doing, wrought destruction and death in service of her own overweening posturing. R. 158M. STREAMING. ●

Holiday

Gi Guide

ake a deep breath and a shot of eggnog — the season of giving is just ahead, which means the season of shopping is upon us. No need for it to be a slog that obscures the genuine pleasure of picking out something that will bring a smile to someone who makes you smile.

Step away from the keyboard and prepare to peruse our county’s array of shops and businesses, where you’ll also get a smile from the owners of those establishments. But first, take a gander at the riches spread before you in this year’s Gift Guide. Inside, you’ll see locally made jewelry, handblown glass and ceramics, gloves and coats to keep someone warm, and charming books and stuffed animals to keep children entertained. There are favors from Flavortown, carved wood treasures, buttery leather goods and other little luxuries to spoil each other with.

And all these indulgences — made or sold in our community — keep our beloved Humboldt businesses and creators, well, in business. Speaking of which, proceeds from the all-ages NCJ Coloring Book go to contributing local artists, so keep that in your pocket for a colorful present. It's available at ncjshop.com.

And while you’re at it, throw a bone to the folks hunting for a present for you and circle a couple of things for yourself.

Enjoy the season, Humboldt.
