WEB EXTRA, MAY 24: “IT’S UNSAFE TO BE NOT WHITE”

SO VERY FAR Why was this guy so far up in her driveway? With all the burgulary in Santa Fe this woman has a good reason to be suspicious.

This SFR article appears to be pedaling an agenda.

DALE SIVILS VIA FACEBOOK

EXHIBIT A This woman perfectly represents every reason I hated growing up in Santa Fe. I love it now that I’m a secure adult with my own voice but as a child, treatment from these types of people was devastating. I was brought up to respect elders so I didn’t know how to react when being mistreated by old rich Anglos.

These people deserve less than disrespect, they deserve complete utter disdain.

LUCRECE BORREGO VIA FACEBOOK

LETTERS, MAY 23: “SUPPORT”

OK, BUT ...

Since they are rarely the objects of sexual harassment, it is difficult for many men to understand that the “timing” around when a woman reports life-scarring assaults is not about elections or power. Instead, it has to do with bravery after a long emotionally charged process dealing with shame, depression and guilt, and the internal time it takes to integrate that pain. When such affronts also involve work, it becomes far more complex for the victim, who must ask: Will this affect my ability to perform my job effectively?

Rep. Carl Trujillo may be “hardworking” and “popular,” but has it occurred to you that the lobbyist who reported the story is also hard-working and well-loved, and would like to have the freedom to do an excellent job in her work without fighting someone to be respected professionally? This issue is more about the entitled mentality that men feel due to their power, which gives them the right to break the law and demean others.

It is possible you may never understand this choice, and that makes you lucky, not informed.

WEB EXTRA, MAY 12: “LIES UNDETECTED”

SO TIRED OF THIS I am beyond exhausted by the divisive rhetoric coming from our nation’s politicians.

Unfortunately, it seems that the county of Santa Fe is no different. Carl Trujillo has turned his house race into a three-ring circus, with he and his supporters relentlessly attacking a woman who has come forward alleging sexual [harassment]. ...

Trujillo’s behavior is not what I would expect from an elected official. It needs to stop.

In my view, Trujillo has seriously damaged his reputation by his response to these allegations and he isn’t the kind of person I believe worthy of representing our community.

I want, and we need, someone who respects women and brings our community together. Women comprise more than 50 percent of the population in District 46. Carl Trujillo obviously doesn’t represent women.

CARRIE McCARTHY SANTA FE

KNOCK IT OFF It is time to stop beating up Democratic Rep. Carl Trujillo of Santa Fe until some actual proof of a crime is presented. The unproven victim, Laura Boner, has failed to provide any proof whatsoever, and has not even filed a harassment complaint. Not with the Legislature, not in any court. Is she scared of a perjury charge?

LETTERS groundless accusations? Does anyone find it peculiar that this person choose to write an angry open letter only a few weeks before the election, when her story relates to something from over five years ago?

Was this not important until now, when it is meant to sway voters? This entire saga smells bad.

Why is the Speaker of the House even considering action when no formal charges have been submitted? Does Speaker Egolf usually react to unverified gossip instead of facts and written complaints? He is a lawyer and should know better. Perhaps he also is promoting the disgraced Andrea Romero, who is running against Rep. Trujillo.

Until someone actually has evidence, I will be supporting the hardworking, threetime elected, women’s rights supporter Carl Trujillo—he at least can prove everything I’ve stated.

Perhaps we should report facts, not slander.

WEB EXTRA, MAY 17: “MIDTOWN SCHOOL SHUFFLE”

because I would like to add a few more comments to the ones he included in his article. …

Cantú reports that the Midtown Ecodistrict “vision” forecasts upwards of 3,000 new housing units on the SFUAD campus. ... It is important to note that under the current enrollment boundaries, elementary school students living on the former SFUAD campus would be zoned to attend Nava. …

Board Member Kate Noble said that the demographic projections the district is using to study possible closure of Nava and EJ do not include information about the potential uses of the former SFUAD campus. …

This should be a significant variable in the board’s decision-making process about possible closure of Nava and EJ. … Even if they vote to close Nava and EJ now, they will still be paying to operate those schools over the next three and a half years. I believe it would be wise to learn more about possible development on the former SFUAD campus before making a decision that has such significant impact on the future of the Midtown and the City of Santa Fe.

Proposed changes to Española Valley Fiesta could serve as a model for Santa Fe

BY AARON CANTÚ a a r o n @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

A

road map from a respected local historian could provide a path to a more culturally sensitive alternative to Santa Fe’s Entrada, a depiction of one moment in 1692 during Spanish colonists’ bloody reconquest of Northern New Mexico.

Former State Historian Estevan Rael-Gálvez, who grew up north of Taos and produced a report on Santa Fe’s cultural character in 2016, says he has spent the last year researching historical tensions surrounding the larger Fiesta celebration scheduled this year from Sept. 1 to 9.

Rael-Gálvez completed a similar report for Española shortly after its mayor, Javier Sánchez, appointed a new Community Relations Commission tasked with altering the town’s July Fiesta celebration. The change was inspired by critics who say the old version glorified conquest and domination of Pueblo peoples.

Last year’s Santa Fe Entrada, which traditionally kicks off Fiesta weekend, was marred by raucous protests, climaxing in several arrests. Rael-Gálvez thinks the transformation of Española’s Fiesta event could serve as a model for its counterpart in Santa Fe. According to a report in the Rio Grande Sun, in April, Española’s new Fiesta commission successfully recommended the city government remove all depictions of Juan de Oñate, the conquistador tried and convicted by a Spanish colonial court in 1614 for brutal acts against Pueblo people in New Mexico.

There is not yet any indication whether Santa Fe will take action to change fundamental aspects of the city’s Fiesta, and specifically the Entrada, whose modern incarnation debuted in 1911—nearly 20 years before Española’s—as a means of boosting tourism.

One key difference is the event here is organized by the Fiesta Council, a nonprofit organization, though the city has typically reimbursed the council up to

$50,000 through a lodger’s tax for certain costs.

Mayor Alan Webber tells SFR that the Fiesta Council has again applied for a permit to have the event in a public setting, but the city hasn’t granted permission for use of the Plaza.

“I don’t want to speculate on things that are still subject to conversation,” Webber tells SFR by telephone.

The Fiesta Council, which organizes the majority of the weekend’s events and chooses actors for the cuadrilla, the procession that depicts the Entrada, did not respond to several messages from SFR seeking comment.

In an interview with SFR, Rael-Gálvez notes that both Santa Fe’s and Española’s Fiestas differ from other Fiesta and Feast Day celebrations in the state by emphasizing conquistadors and acts of conquest instead of patron saints.

“It’s not just the vocabulary that is employed around these Fiestas, but it’s the symbols and the narrative structure,” Rael-Gálvez says, noting that both possess royal courts (cuadrillas) and celebrate the idea of “first families”—settlers imagined to be of pure Spanish blood who arrived to the region with Oñate and, about a century later, de Vargas—rather than the actual changing and mixing of people that has occurred in the region over the last 300 to 400 years.

In his report on Española’s Fiesta, Rael-Gálvez writes that a 15th-generation Hispanic person in Northern New Mexico descends from 16,384 individuals, including Indigenous people. By the mid1700’s, a significant majority of the population had at least one Indigenous parent or grandparent.

A member of the cuadrilla attempts to quiet down a protester during last year’s Entrada pageant.

Yet pride in Spanish-colonial legacy continues to be a salient aspect of Fiesta celebrations. Rael-Gálvez believes this says more about the time period in which Anglo-American colonialism crystallized in Santa Fe’s cultural character. “[Hispanic people] experienced a loss of language, of land,” he says. “Gravitating toward this narrative [of Spanish ancestry] is done to have a sense of belonging in this place.”

Robert Martinez lives in Albuquerque now, but his Santa Fe-based family traces its roots back to a Spanish settler in the 1590s. Martinez, the deputy state historian, says much of the mythology surrounding claims to pure Spanish blood has to do with a self-conscious push by Hispanic New Mexicans to assimilate into the US. Certain symbols like first family coats of arms, which are hung up on the Palace of the Governors during Fiesta, are recent inventions to justify the myth, he says.

“One thing we have to come to grips with as Hispanic New Mexicans is we descend from Spanish colonizers, but we also come from conquered Indians,” Martinez says. “We have both of that in us, both are our history, both are our tradition.”

Rael-Gálvez says in addition to altering the Entrada, larger efforts at restorative justice here could borrow ideas from other initiatives such as New Orleans’ Racial Reconciliation Commission and a similar effort between the state government of Maine and Wabanaki Tribal Governments.

The report is nearing completion, and Rael-Gálvez says his goal is to have it

released and accessible long before Santa Fe Fiesta happens. The work is being funded by the McCune Charitable Foundation.

In Española, community members met last week at the Misión Museum y Convento to hold a resolana, or a space to have a healing dialogue about the Fiesta event there. Present was Jennifer Marley, a leading organizer whose felony arrest at last year’s Entrada made headlines. Her charges, and those of others arrested that day, were dismissed.

She felt the discussion placed too much emphasis on identity, and not enough on building a broad movement for justice in the present. “I feel like the focus on identity is an indication that discomfort is driving the conversation, rather than people’s motivations to challenge colonialism,” she says.

At the same time, Marley adds she is “super happy” there appears to be momentum to change the Entrada after last year.

“In a state like this that overwhelmingly consists of marginalized people …

I just don’t think that popular support is going to be gained by those fighting to keep celebrations of colonialism,” she tells SFR. Martinez, offers a vision for a post-Entrada Fiesta.

“Can you imagine reconfiguring Santa Fe Fiesta to celebrate Pueblo music and dance, genízaro music and dance, Spanish music, Mexican with mariachis, New Mexican with violin and guitar?” he says.

“And how about bluegrass and rock and roll? Because this is the US, too.”

Trees Truncated

The trees on Santa Fe’s downtown Plaza need some love

B Y M AT T G R U B S m a t t g r u b s @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

I

“

think that I shall never see / A poem lovely as a tree,” the poet Joyce Kilmer wrote in his 1914 offering, “Trees.”

While perhaps not the most original titlist in literary history, he had a gift for making the obvious sound plaintive and not quite so evident.

Take a stroll to Santa Fe’s historic Plaza and gaze upward and you get Kilmer’s drift. It’s lovely. Despite their grand stature, though, the trees are not guaranteed to be there forever.

“All of those trees are struggling and there’s infestation,” says City Councilor Signe Lindell, whose district encompasses the Plaza. At a recent governing body meeting, she asked the city’s program manager for integrated pest management to work up a status report.

Victor Lucero is that man.

A Santa Fe native who graduated from New Mexico State University with a degree in pest management, Lucero worked at Texas A&M for years before being drawn home like a moth to the proverbial flame. He’s been here since 2015, managing the city’s “natural-first” pest treatment policy (he’s certified) and doing things like trapping insects and leading bug walks through the Railyard (he’s a

member of the Entomological Society of America). His office is filled with cuts from trees and a wood-and-glass case of bugs.

He has a bin of old prescription bottles and drops a pinned insect into one. About the size of a piece of orzo pasta, it’s a honey locust borer. It kills its namesake trees, drilling through the bark to the soft layer underneath, blocking the flow of nutrients to stunt and eventually kill the tree.

“I started seeing adults on the tree trunks right around the first week of June [2017],” Lucero told the Municipal Tree Board last week. He’s set out traps in four different spots around town and hopes to soon get a better sense of how aggressive the infestation is in Santa Fe. There are five honey locusts on the Plaza. As of two years ago, the smallleafed, non-native species made up about a tenth of the trees on the city’s signature gathering place. Because of the borer’s infestation, they won’t make it to maturity.

The problem is a city-wide issue. Honey locusts along Marcy Street and East Palace Avenue have been hit hard. The trees have been planted by both the City of Santa Fe and its residents. Of course,

there’s much more variety on the Plaza; some 16 species have sprouted or been planted in the hallowed square.

It’s not just pests—European elm scale is another that causes die-back—that are killing Plaza trees. It’s love.

Trees across the community gathering spot are being weakened by the city’s passion for their patch of earth— “Everyone who comes to Santa Fe walks on that Plaza,” Lindell says—and their canopy is shrinking. Despite having two and a half times the number of trees as

NEWS

Cathedral Park just a block away, the Plaza’s canopy is smaller.

Some of that is to be expected, of course, as more trees means more competition for sunlight, but relative to the size of their trunks, the canopies of the Plaza trees don’t indicate good health.

The soil below them is severely compacted, which causes water to pool on the surface because it’s harder to penetrate. What’s more, the city’s watering regimen is geared toward grass and not trees. Trees need longer watering, say 30 minutes of soaking, two hours off and repeat that cycle two more times in a single night.

Lucero is a pest manager, but he says the first line of defense against losing trees is finding a way to get them the nutrients they need. He and horticulturalist Tracy Neal, who serves on the tree board, point to something called vertimulching that creates a thin, deep cut in the ground that’s then filled with organic material.

It’s a possible solution, though the city doesn’t keep a tree expert on staff to provide a quick estimate of how much time or money it would take to implement.

“We’re limited in what kind of chemicals we use,” Lindell explains. That’s by design in this progressive city, which has a pest management policy that requires it to assess cultural practices, nutrient delivery and natural pest predation before going the chemical route. But Lindell says there can be special circumstances.

“If in order to save those trees, we have to do some very special things we wouldn’t typically do, I would consider supporting that,” she tells SFR. And she knows exactly what kind of can she’s opening when she does so. “Let me be clear, we’re not talking about Roundup.”

She continues, “It would be a terrible shame to let them die.”

The city has plenty of warning, and neither she nor Lucero are concerned about what’s going to happen in the next couple of years.

“It’s not like they die overnight, but they’re not healthy,” Lindell says. “I don’t know what the timeframe is for when they get past saving, but I don’t want to get there.”

Kilmer, the early-20th century poet, was known for weaving religion and nature through his work. He pegged that very same problem of talking too much and waiting too long to appreciate what’s right in front of—or above—us: “Poems are made by fools like me, / But only God can make a tree.”

BY IRIS MCLISTER a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

T

he first Indian Market (er, the first Southwest Indian Fair and Industrial Arts and Crafts Exhibition) was held in 1922, an effort of the Museum of New Mexico to promote tourism. Over time, it grew and became independent of the museum—even developing its own nonprofit managing body, the Southwestern Association for Indian Arts (SWAIA), which now works year-round to produce Indian Market. The event takes place over only a handful of days in August, but features around 1,000 artists in booths which fan out for 14 blocks’ worth of downtown streets around the Market’s longtime-nexus, the historic Santa Fe Plaza. It’s the biggest fair of its kind in the world, and arguably the most prestigious; as one artist described it, Indian Market is the World Series of Native art shows.

But deciding who gets to participate has long been troublesome, and this year’s change to the process is still smarting for both artists who made the cut for the Aug. 18 and 19 event, and those who didn’t.

In the ’90s, SWAIA decided to make

Indian Market a juried show, but due to fears that longtime artists wouldn’t be able to get in, organizers instated a temporary tenure program which was supposed to only last a couple years. Twenty-five Indian Markets later, though, it was still around. A few weeks after the 2016 market concluded, SWAIA’s then-chief of operations Dallin Maybee (Arapahoe/Seneca) announced an end to tenure. SWAIA had ignored the strictures of a juried show for far too long, he argued, and the board unanimously agreed.

Maybee, who tendered his resignation in December after serving as SWAIA’s head for four years, now lives in Phoenix, but remains deeply supportive of the organization.

“There were two ways to get tenure taken away,” Maybee tells SFR. “You either miss a show or pass away.” Maybee says tenure stuck around for so long because of good-ol’-boy networks, fear of lawsuits, high turnover and general institutional turmoil. “So, here we are, years later,” he says, referring to when he entered the position in 2014, “knowing tenure is a problem.” Getting rid of it, he insists, “was always about fundamental fairness. We

SFREPORTER.COM

realized, ‘Oh my gosh, there are all these people who get a pass to the market as long as they submit their paperwork on time?’

Next question was, do we leave it in place knowing it’s inherently unfair?”

Fairness is tricky to gauge, but when it comes to a juried art show, where top win-

ners stand to receive thousands of dollars, the idea of not carefully scrutinizing their work seems categorically, well, not fair— even deceptive, as it undermines the very premise of a juried show.

Several weeks ago, a front-page story in the Santa Fe New Mexican inaccurately stated that SWAIA only accepts digital applications; though artists are now required to submit digital images, snail-mail applications are still accepted. It might seem like a minor detail, but in a tense climate, confusion remains.

For most of the show’s history, images were submitted on slides, then projected onscreen during the jurying process.

Now artists must send digital images, but they don’t have to be professional—cell phone pictures are fine. In an effort to help smooth the transition, SWAIA staff, including Marketing Director Amanda Crocker, traveled to remote communities like Acoma and Santo Domingo, offering to take pictures.

“Many artists were pleased to have it as a resource,” Crocker explains in an email to SFR. “Unfortunately, some others assumed that if SWAIA took the picture, it would mean automatic acceptance into Market; and, on the flip side, that if they did not jury in, it was because of SWAIA’s photography.”

SWAIA still does outreach, she says, but no longer takes images after trying it last year; artists or their relatives are now responsible for that. Photo foibles aside, a whopping 80 percent of artists who apply are accepted—out of 1,154 applicants, an estimated 920 are scheduled to show in 2018’s Market.

This upcoming Indian Market will be Taos Pueblo glass artist Ira Lujan’s 11th, and though he’s thankful and excited for the opportunity, when asked about what’s

happening to tenured artists, Lujan says without hesitation, “I think it’s wrong.”

Speaking to SFR over the phone, Lujan says, “Some of those artists depend all year on sales from that one weekend. In Pueblo culture, you take care of your elders.”

Another glass artist, Tony Jojola of Isleta Pueblo, has shown at Indian Market for around 40 years, and though he was accepted into 2018’s Market, he tells SFR, “It seems like SWAIA wants to get rid of us older artists, the ones who have been here forever.”

Jojola also questioned why SWAIA’s regional roots don’t translate into a show of regional artists. “Indian Market,” says Jojola, “is predominantly about our people in this area, but we’ve accepted more and more Natives from other parts of the country lately, and they’re replacing people from here.”

We honestly believed that doing away with tenure was in fact the best way to respect our elders.

-Dallin Maybe, former SWAIA director

Is SWAIA supposed to be geared toward regional artists? For SWAIA Executive Director Ira Wilson (Navajo), who has been at the helm since February, the short answer is no—applicants only need to be members of one of North America’s 562 federally recognized tribes. “It was never just for Southwestern Native artists,” says Wilson, and though around 70 percent of Indian Market artists are regional, “we want to see the beauty of all tribes.”

Wilson argues that the process of determining who gets in has nothing to do with age.

“I don’t want SWAIA to be in a position where we’re justifying why we’re throwing our elders away,” he says with a grimace, “because we don’t do that.”

It’s a sentiment echoed by Maybee.

“From when we’re little, it’s ingrained in us to respect our elders, so when people say we don’t …” his voice trails off. “It’s

NEWS

just so hard for me to fathom that argument.” Moreover, SWAIA argues that in abolishing tenure, it’s also combating favoritism and backdoor handshake agreements, thereby leveling the playing field. “We honestly believed that doing away with tenure was in fact the best way to respect our elders,” Maybee says.

Weaver Barbara Teller Ornelas (Navajo) tells SFR from her home in Tucson that she’s had a booth at the market for 34 years. “Going there every year to market, it’s like going home to family,” she says. With two Best of Show awards under her belt and a booth in this year’s market, Teller Ornelas remains humble and philosophical. Though she says she isn’t sure how tenure originally was instituted, “the fact that it’s no longer a given keeps me doing my best.” She pauses before adding: “But don’t get me wrong, I miss my tenure. I worry that maybe next year it could be me, you know?”

Jewelry designer Jolene Eustace has Cochiti and Zuni ancestry. “Both my parents were artists,” she tells SFR. “I was raised making jewelry in a traditional way.” Eustace won awards, served as a Market judge, and gained tenure, she says, by receiving a fellowship in the late 1990s. This year will be the first time she hasn’t shown in the market in more than 20 years. “I’m still shocked,” she continues. “There was no warning about it.”

Eustace thinks new rules of getting into Indian Market are a concern for older artists; especially, she says, “those on the reservation, who are rural, and don’t have as much access to other markets and clients.” She also takes issue with what she sees as increasingly lax attitude towards non-traditional methods of jewelry-making. “If it’s computer-generated or machine-produced, it shouldn’t be allowed,” Eustace posits.

Mostly, she seems genuinely concerned about honoring—and preserving—the past. “When you eliminate artists, you eliminate elders,” she says.

“And you erase history.”

In a twist, Eustace’s son Eric Othole, also a traditional jewelry maker, will have a booth at Market this year. Through a Facebook message, Othole defended his mom, telling SFR, “She’s been part of SWAIA for so long and has contributed so much. It’s just wrong they didn’t accept her. SWAIA needs to really listen to those who helped build Indian Market into what it is today.”

Indian Market hits 100 years in 2022, but for now, “There’s the sting of the band-aid coming off,” says Wilson. “It might seem tumultuous, but I’m hoping something good will come out of it.”

he cast of characters for Santa Fe voters in the June 5 primary election is hard to keep track of.

The ballot includes two Anayas who aren’t related. There are two Jerrys—one sporting tons of tattoos and one who lost his job as a city cop during the Robbie Romero case. Five other candidates are also former police officers. Three scientists jumped into the running for various positions. Six current or former legislators are seeking election to other statewide jobs. And that’s just a sample.

Voters can grab chances to break glass ceilings for women who are still greatly outnumbered, and they also have a shot at increasing ethnic diversity so that our officials look more like our population.

In addition, ballots offer choices to give

virtually unknown politicians a shot at leadership or to affirm proven records of service.

Isn’t democracy something?

Early voting is underway, and Election Day is around the corner, so SFR offered in-person interviews to all the candidates we could find. Except for the one dude who said, “I’ll pass,” the conversations helped elucidate the positions and personalities of the people seeking office.

Like many recent elections in Santa Fe County, the contests for local voters are all situated for now within the Democratic Party. And only voters who registered as big D Dems are eligible to cast ballots.

But in many races—like Santa Fe County Sheriff, state House District 46 and magistrate judges—no one from another

political party qualified to appear on the General Election ballot in November. So this is it.

In other races, the winning Democrat faces another round of campaigning: the nominee for governor will go against a well-heeled Republican congressman who’s already advertising; the would-be land commissioner who emerges from a field of three will take on two more opponents since both a Republican and a Libertarian are in the race.

What follows are our recommendations, based on our understanding of the facts and factions today. But we don’t know everything, and some of the decisions were tough calls based on thin margins. Don’t let us down, voters. Do your own homework, too. (Julie Ann Grimm)

SFREPORTER.COM

Are you already gasping? We’re not recommending a free pass for the dynamic female congresswoman from Albuquerque or the fast-talking former TV exec and son of a governor, but instead pointing to the good qualities of a state senator from down south.

Joseph ( just call him Joe) Cervantes has served in New Mexico’s citizen Legislature for 17 years, and his push for the governor’s seat appears to come from a place of using that experience to lead the state. A recent statewide poll indicates he could be a major underdog and not the likely winner, yet we think on the whole he’d be the best governor.

His track record in the more conservative chamber of the Roundhouse as representative for part of Doña Ana County shows strong advocacy and knowledge of issues that will matter in the next four years like water supply and capital projects.

While at first we were psyched about Jeff Apodaca’s candidacy, his whack plan for 225,000 new jobs quickly became a tired refrain during the campaign. Plus, his motor-mouthed approach leaves little confidence that listening, compromise and

team-building would be strong enough under his administration. He favors hyperbole and likes to say he’s the “only one” who’s talking about an issue.

There’s no doubt that Michelle Lujan Grisham is an exciting candidate. Stepping aside from a seat she’s held in Congress for two terms, Lujan Grisham made it clear early on that she had her sights set on becoming governor. She’s whip-smart, her energy is contagious and her ability to garner massive support from the party could be promising in the general election battle against conservative Republican Congressman Steve Pearce. She is poised and articulate in a manner unsurpassed by her foes in the race.

But those close party ties also come with industry ties, including campaign cash from pharmaceutical and insurance companies.

And that enthusiasm sometimes comes out manic or mean. Plus, her career centers around government jobs. Cervantes, meanwhile, has earned paychecks apart from the public sector and he’s been firmly rooted in New Mexico. His experience as an architect and attorney comes with chops in the farm fields and orchards. That combo seems like a good fit for the governor’s office.

CONTINUING COVERAGE AT SFREPORTER.COM/ELECTIONS

Lieutenant Governor

Rick Miera

State Auditor

Bill McCamley Bill McCamley wants to be known for something others would hide from: He’s a total pain in the ass. He thinks this a good quality for the state auditor, and we don’t disagree. McCamley has a track record of rabble-rousing in the state Legislature and an educational background that seems to translate well to the position that looks at the financial affairs of government agencies.

Billy Garrett

The New Mexico Constitution really makes this seat complicated for voters to grock. The Lt. runs in the primary independent of the governor, but when he or she gets the party nod, the tickets then blend together. So all three people in this race bend over backwards to explain how they’ll support whichever Dem gov gets to the top. In the last eight years we’ve seen what happens when they don’t agree.

Brian Colón Bill McCamley

Also on the ballot is Brian Colón (pronounced like “cologne”—and, by the way, he’s liberal with it), who turned his attention to the seat after he came in third in the Albuquerque mayoral contest last year. Voters might also remember him from his 2010 run for the fourth floor as lieutenant governor with Diane Denish. A lawyer with the same Albuquerque law firm where state Attorney General Hector Balderas worked, he’s also a former state Democratic Party chairman.

We like McCamley better for the job because he’s got more recent, direct experience with the subject matter of various state and local finances.

He’s proven a tenacious legislator who backs his efforts with research and we look forward to watching him dig in.

In the November general election, the winner of the race faces Republican incumbent Wayne Johnson, appointed to the job after Tim Keller became mayor of Albuquerque.

Howie Morales

Rick Miera

We hope voters also consider the political geography calculation. It will be important to show regional diversity in the general election. For that reason and others, we recommend Rick Miera for the job. Miera’s background in behavioral health care provides a backdrop for focusing on solutions that could put more resources to this topic, and his 24 years as an Albuquerque-area state representative

give him insight into the state’s management.

We were really impressed, however, with Billy Garrett.

Though he’s near Billy the Kid country, he’s not related to Sheriff Pat Garrett. Instead, he’s a longtime Doña Ana County Commissioner with an administrative background who has some thoughtful ideas about using the office to support the governor’s agenda.

Stephanie Garcia Richard

Land Commissioner

Garrett VeneKlasen

George Munoz

Stephanie Garcia Richard The office of the state land commissioner has been occupied memorably by guys wearing bolo ties and guys wearing cowboy hats. But the candidate we like the best has a lot more going for her than just that she’s not one of the guys (or that she would be the state’s first female land commissioner). Stephanie Garcia Richard wants to approach the management of the state’s trust lands with a perspective

that hasn’t been present in the office: a teacher’s.

Classrooms are the beneficiaries of the money generated by the land, and, she argues, from the condition of New Mexico schools, oil and gas developers aren’t paying their fair share. Plus, Garcia Richard has sat on the House budget committee and is familiar with the work she’ll need to do as the land commissioner.

A close second to Garcia Richard is Garrett VeneKlasen, a Santa Fean who would likely do a great job in the office and who has an exciting vision.

We love his enthusiasm for leveraging outdoor recreation to earn more and be more valuable for users.

But Garcia Richard is a seasoned elected official who fought hard to earn and keep her seat in a historically red legislative district. She’ll need those chops to face two men who have previously held the seat: Libertarian Aubrey Dunn and Republican Pat Lyons.

2018 Primary Election Endorsements Santa Fe County Sheriff

Adan Mendoza Voters in Santa Fe County tend to keep the top law enforcement officer’s position in-house. It’s common for the sheriff to serve the allowed two terms and then practically pass the reins to the second in command, but that’s not the case this time around. Four candidates who’ve all left the department are now vying to return as its leader.

Adan Mendoza is a standout in the

Manuel Anaya

Adan Mendoza

Linda Ortiz

Leonard Romero

crowd. He worked as a supervisor in many of the department’s divisions and rose to the rank of major before he retired two years ago. He appears to have a pragmatic approach to fulfilling public safety duties and has a handle on what we hear from residents about their needs: faster responses to emergencies (especially in the southern part of the county), better cooperation with other agencies (especially in the northern part), and working to better involve the county in diversion programs for people who are addicted to drugs and commit crimes (all over the place).

We like his idea of developing a way for residents to make reports online rather than tying up officers with mundane acts of vandalism, general suspicions or other minor issues, and we think he can communicate effectively to his budget bosses at the County Commission and to his real boss: the people who live here.

SANTA FE COUNTY COMMISSIONER

District 3

Filandro Anaya Rudy Garcia Donald H Reece

Rudy Garcia We do love the cowboy hats on formal head shots for two out of three Dems seeking the Santa Fe County Commission seat for the southern portion of the county.

But a lack of headwear is not why we chose to endorse the guy whose official portrait omitted a hat. Rudy Garcia has worked at Santa Fe County for 27 years.

He’d go into the governing job without the steep learning curve that others might face. He grew

up on Airport Road before annexation, so he’s also got a blend of urban and rural familiarity that is promising.

We admire Filandro Anaya’s desire to get on the commission to represent people who he says feel forgotten by the county, but his answers to questions about the county’s overall concerns such as the jail and coming-soon mental health center felt under-studied. The third man in the race, Donald Reece, declined to meet to talk about any of it.

SANTA FE COUNTY MAGISTRATE COURT

Division 1

David Segura This race might get the unofficial award for being the most oddball.

Rather than go for an empty seat in the other court division, former bail bondsman Jerry Gonzales decided to take on the guy who’s been presiding

Jerry C Gonzales

Samuel B Sena

Division 2

John Rysanek

David Segura

judge at the court for nine years and sat on the bench for 12. Then, Judge David Segura chose to run a low-budget campaign, raising just $800 and spending none of it at the last report, while Gonzales raked in $13,000 and is working hard to earn the new job with voters.

While we really, really wanted to recommend Gonzales (and not just because we’re pretty sure he would be the only person on the bench with neck tattoos), he seems to have an ax to grind about bail reform that he claims led to the closure of his business. He doesn’t make the case that Segura is doing a bad job and needs to be replaced. Segura is knowledgeable about the court and has a solid reputation, as far as we can tell.

John Rysanek Neither of the candidates for this open seat on Santa Fe’s Magistrate Court bench are particularly wellknown, but one of them has a whole bucket full of credentials for the job and the other one’s reputation in-

cludes admission of faking records.

So, it’s easy to choose John Rysanek as our recommendation for the job.

As the head of the local district attorney’s intake section, he’s got experience with the elements of criminal cases as he prepares them for presentation to grand juries. A 2011 UNM Law graduate, he estimates he’s now been involved in over 4,000 cases.

The other name on the ballot is Sam Sena’s. Like any flawed human (read: all of us), the former State Police officer deserves forgiveness for his bad choice to falsify department training records, but the incident makes us unwilling to take a risk on his choices that could affect the rest of a defendant’s life.

1st JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT Jerry Archuleta

Division 2

Maria Sanchez-Gagne There’s nothing wrong with the judge whom the governor appointed to fill a vacancy on the District Court. We’re hard-pressed to say one bad thing about Greg Shaffer, a former state and county attorney who has been doing the job since November. However,

Donna BevacquaYoung

Maria Sanchez-Gagne Greg Shaffer

in this four-way race to elect a judge, the slate of candidates offers another choice whom we think would be great for our community.

Maria Sanchez-Gagne narrowly lost a bid to become the Democratic nominee for the 1st Judicial District attorney post in 2016. Of the three counties in the district, she got more votes in Santa Fe County than her opponent, losing by a hair in Rio Arriba to the overall winner, Marco Serna.

That support is one thing that tells us Sanchez-Gagne, a longtime prosecutor, is a good bet for the seat.

What’s more, she’s not shy about pointing out a glaring problem in our District Court, it looks a whole lot like Shaffer—male and Anglo. She’s bilingual and has 22 years of both civil and criminal law. We’re with her.

New Mexico House

District 43

Christine Chandler The House seat that includes all of Los Alamos County and parts of Rio Arriba and Santa Fe is up for grabs because Rep. Stephanie Garcia Richard is giving it up to run for state Land Commissioner. Two Los Alamos County Commissioners are facing off for the Democratic nomination, the winner of which

Matthew Eric Jackson

Division 5

Jason Lidyard

Jason Lidyard The two candidates for the division of the court that is housed at the Tierra Amarilla courthouse in Rio Arriba County have competed over and again. Matthew Eric Jackson and Jason Lidyard both applied for a different court vacancy and didn’t land the appointment. Then, both applied to this vacancy, and a panel of judges and others from the legal field recom-

mended Lidyard for the post and not Jackson. Young and clear-eyed, Lidyard has been in the job now for just a couple of months. We like his style.

Jackson has private practice and government experience, but Lidyard has worked on both sides of the courtroom in many more trials, and has spent more time in the community in Rio Arriba County during his seven-year tenure at the district attorney’s office.

While it might seem like we are going all prosecutor-heavy in these recommendations, it’s important to point out that Lidyard has a passion for the district’s Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion program, and has taken a proactive step as a judge: Conditions of release for all defendants in opiate cases include a visit to an NA or AA meeting and a requirement that they obtain Narcan, a drug that can prevent overdose. That can’t hurt.

Andrea Romero

District 46

Carl Trujillo

Christine Chandler Peter T Sheehey

will compete against Lisa Shin, a Republican. The district has been historically Republican-leaning, largely due to a well-loved powerhouse who held the seat for years and was a moderate.

But Christine Chandler argues that it’s become more liberal over time. She’s probably right about this, and bunch of other things.

Chandler seems to be the kind of strong, thoughtful leader the district is used to in Garcia Richard. Her opponent Peter Sheehey shares many of the same policy positions, but not in the same articulate way that Chandler puts forward. Her active listening skills are much more developed, and her approach as an attorney and her experience working as an analyst for the Senate Judiciary Committee for four of the last five sessions should come in handy.

Andrea Romero The incumbent legislator and the challenger in this race have both taken political hits as the campaign draws to a close, and their various responses have led to more mudslinging than any other local primary contest.

There’s no doubt Rep. Carl Trujillo has ardent supporters, particularly among those affected by the Aamodt lawsuit in the Pojoaque Valley who he helped get a more fair shake as gov-

ernments settled the decades old litigation.

It’s hard, however, to not get sucked in to what has become vicious rhetoric from supporters. When a lobbyist accused Trujilllo of sexual misconduct, both the candidate and some of his backers displayed a streak of misogyny that’s unacceptable. We’re not saying there’s evidence of his guilt or innocence in the matter, but his she’s-lying-because-Facebook! retort was not befitting an elected official.

Romero isn’t a perfect candidate, either. She got dinged in the public eye for some shady purchases on a quasi-government job and now says she handled it poorly. She seems to spout party rhetoric yet really thinks she’s saying something. At the same time, her values for reproductive freedom (contrary to his) and her perspective as what would be one of the youngest members in the Roundhouse are promising.

YOU’RE LION Normally we have a mixed reaction to Disney’s padded, four-fingered glove’s grip on pop culture, but we recommend the upcoming free outdoor screening of The Lion King because of its obvious Shakespearean themes (the damn thing is basically Hamlet) and pretty OK songs. Find here the tale of a young lion named Jonathan Taylor Thomas who must avenge his father James Earl Jones, the original king of lions, who’s been felled by his own brother, Jeremy Irons. JTT joins forces with a meerkat and a wild boar and the trio learns stuff through songs before returning to the land of lions to straight keep the murder cycle alive.

EVENT THU/31

Clowning Around A long, noble tradition of buffoonery comes to Santa Fe We all saw the reboot of Stephen King’s It, a tale that has vilified clowns and placed them squarely in the horrifying camp for generations now. But the truth of the matter is that clowning—real clowning— is an old and proud tradition that exists well outside the birthday party milieu and more firmly in the physical comedy realm.

Meanwhile, in a younger though somewhat parallel existence, lies burlesque, that sexy and teasing art form that empowers performers and audiences alike to embrace their sexuality while keepin’ it classy. Both are, at times, misunderstood, but what if the twain did meet? Enter Cartoon Chaos Cabaret, a newly minted performance troupe with roots in Phoenix, New York City and Los Angeles; a troupe that just so happens to be coming through town.

“It’s kind of funny that I just fell into clowning, because as a child I was scared of clowns,” says co-founder, producer and performer Lydia Wilts. “It just found me; I was in theater programs growing up, but I had this opportunity to be touring and performing as a clown, and it helped me to get over it, to see the people behind the face.” Wilts’ performance blends clowning, burlesque and even a little Star Wars.

Cartoon Chaos Cabaret also comes with an educational component. Take, for instance, Dr. Klaw, a longtime performer who Wilts says hosts the show and

speaks between acts, providing history and context to the stage show. “There’s so much history in all of this,” she explains. “We don’t make it boring, but it’s really important that people understand what they’re watching is a long passeddown art form.”

Klaw spent time working with the Coney Island Circus Sideshow while the final third of the cast, Bazoo the Kloun, is an artist with a base in suspension (y’know, hanging oneself from hooks) who is based in California but hails from Albuquerque. Performers take the stage at varying points in the night to share their own particular blend of theater, comedy and dance.

Thus, the show is sexy and silly, a strange combination of theatrical methodology that seems like it wouldn’t intersect well—yet does. It’s the troupe’s first tour, but Wilts is hopeful and excited to show us what they can do. “It’s something I feel more people should see, something I feel more people should pursue,” she says of variety-esque performance. “It’s something that’s out there.”

Did we mention this whole thing will probably cure you of your clown phobia?

You’re welcome. (Alex De Vore) CARTOON CHAOS CABARET 8 pm Thursday May 31. $10-$15. Palace Saloon, 142 W Palace Ave., 428-0690

MIRIAM ALISON

Cult of Personality Cult Tourist gets weird on their new album

BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

T

he word “weird” comes up several times as local indie rock act Cult Tourist and I try to reach an understanding about their sound. A genre-defiant five-piece featuring Jacob Chacko (guitar, vocals), Madeline Gartman (vocals), Will Schreitz (bass), Mark Ettingoff (drums) and Sahaih Escobedo (keys), the band seemingly formed from the four winds; with minimal, if any, longtime ties to Santa Fe and its scenes (both “mainstream” and DIY), they’ve actually managed something weirdly difficult in Santa Fe—they’re completely fresh and doing something no one else around here is doing. Novel.

Formed as if by kismet, Cult Tourist came together organically, from a chance encounter between Ettingoff and Chacko at The Matador, to Gartman’s moving from Atlanta to take a job at Rockin’ Rollers roller rink, that glorious local bastion to the ’70s and ’90s (and aliens). Schreitz is a former St. John’s College student; Escobedo is arguably the most Santa Fe of all the band’s members.

“It’s kind of a pool of all our weirdness,” Ettingoff says. And weird it is, though thoroughly accessible in both the melodic and approachable lo-fi sound.

Take the band’s music video submission to NPR’s fabled Tiny Desk Concert series, “EV!L.” Like the early work of Dr. Dog or even The Flaming Lips, Cult Tourist shuffles through a poppy and patient throwback groove. Schreitz’ bass work channels an upbeat Paul McCartney by way of Motown sound while Escobedo’s catchy synth accentuates Chacko’s guitar; Gartman’s subtle yet powerful vocal harmonies seal the deal. “If your stom-

ach gets to churning while the whole damn world is burning / It’s not you, just the world that’s cruel,” Chacko croons, staring down the camera with intensity.

“It’s about the process and letting it go where it wants,” Chacko hypothesizes.

“I’ve played in bands with an assembly-line approach to music—you get material out quickly, but it’s not very explored.”

This theme of exploration is important to all members. As Gartman says, “It’s really cool to hear where it started and how things tend to evolve when you have people with different ideas and concepts; like when you’re sculpting with rock and it feels like it was always on the inside, you just have to find it.”

And find it they have, as Cult Tourist prepares to release its newest album, Prisoners of Charisma. Recorded in the main skating area at Rockin’ Rollers, Charisma carries exploration and collaboration on its sleeve. All of Cult Tourist is adamant that they have a say in how songs wind up in the end, and even though the word “eclectic” can feel tired, it’s hard to find a better descriptor. Some songs take sidesteps into tangental Zappa-esque moments or late-Beatles horn cacophonies while Hills Audio mastering champ Will Dyar’s work keeps things tight. It’s like there’s an almost healing element or, at least, an invitation for

self-reflection within the record’s more ethereal moments.

“When we first started, I think we said we sounded like Sun Ra meets The Muppets,” Ettingoff recalls. “That informs a little of the weirdness in the band.”

Of course, one should really find out for themselves when Cult Tourist releases Prisoners of Charisma alongside garage punk act Sex Headaches this Saturday at Ghost. Both bands hit the road for a week-long tour shortly thereafter.

CULT TOURIST AND SEX HEADACHES ALBUM RELEASE PARTY 8 pm Saturday June 2. $5-$10.

Ghost, 2899 Trades West Road

MUSIC Mini Review: Workingman’s Punx by Sex Headaches Sex Headaches frontman Luke Henley has been hard at work nailing down a full-time band, and given the handful of shows and previous releases under his belt, we’ve been waiting with bated breath for new jams. And new jams have arrived with Workingman’s Punx, a stellar six-song EP that not only showcases Henley’s chops as a purveyor of kickass punk melodies, but as a scholar of the stylistic elements that make punk rock so magnetic.

Punx is raw and dirty, joyful and triumphant, like a slightly more political take on the mid-’90s Chicago punk sounds of bands like Slapstick or The Broadways melding with the chaotic energy of of a band like Bad Brains.

Yes, this is throwbacky and straight out of the garage, but also sonically fascinating and deceptively complex.

Surface rhythms might sound simplistic, yet Henley’s lead guitar work comes to the forefront without taking away from anything while his vocals find a common ground between punk rock shouts to action and sing-songy melody.

“I hate this world, gonna hate the next one, too,” Henley laments on “Kicked Out of Heaven,” projecting both angst and sadness while thoughtfully commenting on where we’ve wound up as citizens of planet Earth. Is he angry? Maybe. Is he defeated? No way.

Thank goodness, then, for pissed off tracks like “Cruel,” and the throbbing metal-adjacent bass and drums of “Amorality.” With these six songs, Henley proves himself a vital Santa Fe songwriter and a testament to the punk rock tradition. Workingman’s Punx releases this Saturday at Ghost.

The Body Eclectic Artist Richard Balthazar’s new project?

An Aztec coloring book, naturally IMAGE COURTESY EL MUSEO CULTURAL

Richard Balthazar embraces the Aztec codices for his digitally rendered coloring book, Ye Gods! Icons of Azted Deities.

BY IRIS MCLISTER a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

O

ver lunch at Counter Culture Café, Richard Balthazar explains that his new coloring book, Ye Gods!: Icons of Aztec Deities, was years in the making. According to the trim, twinkly-eyed 70-something, “When I started this thing back in 2014, nobody was doing coloring books.” Now, of course, they’re available at most grocery market checkout counters, but still—Ye Gods! offers an

educational slant, a comparatively unique subject matter and, most winningly, is the result of years of scholarship and passion.

The book’s 14 icons, which Balthazar drew using a computer graphics program, are inspired by the Aztec codices. Today, we know of only 15 codices that survived a mass book-burning campaign on behalf of 16th-century Catholic priests. Now housed in public and private collections around the world, they contain scenes of magic and pathos, but also careful geometric patterns and precisely ordered calendars.

The Aztecs are popularly known for human sacrifice, and though some pages of the codices contain scenes of gruesome violence, they mostly portray fantastical kingdoms bursting with color, jaguar-headed men and trees sprouting from human heads. Balthazar’s careful renderings of coiled serpents, warrior goddesses and other fascinating creatures and characters are all based on images he’s studied from original codices.

For the exhibit, which opens Friday at El Museo Cultural in the Railyard, all 14 icons are displayed on 3-by-4-foot vinyl banners, and Balthazar presents free lectures on Aztec themes every Friday (6 pm) and Sunday (2 pm) throughout the duration of the show. Balthazar says the images from Ye Gods! are also downloadable and free for the taking at his website richardbalthazar.com.

Speaking of books, Balthazar is an open one, and on his personal website, he writes about his life with outrageous humor and honesty. He grew up in rural Arkansas, the son of a truck stop owner (you can read more about this period in his autobiographical novella, Bat in a Whirlwind).

He was bright, and attended Tulane University on a full scholarship. Soon after arriving in New Orleans in 1961, Balthazar came out during what he calls “the stone age of gay liberation.” Nevertheless, he ended up married with kids by his mid20s. Though the union didn’t last, he’s still close with his ex-wife, kids and grandchildren, some of whom live here in town. By the time Balthazar settled in Santa Fe in the 1980s, he had developed a deep fascination with Native cultures, and, drawing on his lifelong love of writing, opened Five Flower Press, publishing books on Midwestern Indian burial mounds and on the Aztec codices.

I ask Balthazar if people are surprised by his passion for Aztec culture. “The first thing they asked me at El Museo Cultural,” he says, “was. ‘How does this fit into your story?’ I told them, ‘The thing is, I have many stories.’”

A&C

He means that somewhat literally. On his website, Balthazar divides his life into eight unique episodes, including “Sexy Young Faerie,” “Reluctant Father” and “Grandfatherly Gay Character.” During this last iteration, Balthazar was a fixture of the Santa Fe Farmers Market, where he was known as “The Old Plant Guy” or “The Iris Man.” Every Saturday, he sold used or otherwise unwanted plants during a 15-year period he calls “the happiest professional time of my life.” When Balthazar retired in 2013, he focused on art and writing—and dancing. A lover of Latin and disco music, on his blog, Balthazar bemoans the loss of Santa Fe’s erstwhile gay night club, the Blue Rooster. When it shuttered, he wrote, “I had no choice but to dance among the straight young things at the Skylight to considerably less danceable music.”

At the most basic level, Balthazar wants to share his love of all things Aztec with others. “For me, this is an educational exercise,” he explains. “It’s a means of getting people as excited as I am about an amazing culture.” When I mention how cool it is that Currents New Media Festival, Santa Fe’s ever-growing annual exhibition, will be up at El Museo while his show is there, he agrees. “To have Currents showing at the same time, in the same building, is a huge blessing,” he says, “and I think my show is a good fit, actually, since I used technology to make the drawings.”

Balthazar would like to continue the project with a follow-up coloring book.

“With my good genes, a ninth persona may lurk in my future; possibly even a 10th, as I’ve never been a cat person,” he quips. I could have stayed and talked with Balthazar for hours, but he zipped off on his bicycle to meet his grandson after school.

I just go ahead and find myself another jackoff buddy?

-Craving Uncut Masculine Sri Lankan Another jack-off buddy? No, no. Additional jackoff buddy.

I am a 38-year-old gay man with a serious problem. My boyfriend of five years has developed a strange fascination. We’ve always watched porn together, but now he has been looking at straight porn and even lesbian porn (!!!) more and more often. More than once he has expressed an interest in having a MMF threesome—and he’s a self-proclaimed gold-star gay! This week, I discovered he had hidden a Fleshlight from me. I could tell he had used it. What is going on with him? On the other hand, we still have sex pretty frequently. He really gets off when I call his ass a “pussy,” which I’ll do to turn him on, but I find it pretty weird. He also tells me he gets off on the thought of the two of us fucking a woman together. This really seems bizarre! Could my beautiful bottom boy be turning bi? If he is, I don’t know how we can handle it.

-Guy Alarmed, Yeah, By Younger Boyfriend’s Interest Turning bi? Unlikely.

Always was bi and only just realized it? Likelier.

Always was bi but identified as gay because (1) he prefers men as romantic partners and (2) the biphobia he encountered in gay male spaces/bedrooms/buttholes convinced him to stay closeted but he doesn’t want to live a lie anymore and he’s done hiding from the man he loves but instead of using his words and coming out to you like a grown-up, GAYBYBI, your boyfriend is letting you know he’s bi with his porn choices and a big push to make a MMF threesome sound like a sexy adventure you would both enjoy? Likeliest.

As for how to handle it, GAYBYBI, you’ll have to use your words: Ask your boyfriend if he’s bi. (Spoiler: He’s bi, bicurious, or so homoflexible he could tour with Cirque du Soleil.) If you’re not interested in having sex with women, tell him so. If being with you means he can never have sex with a woman, tell him so. And if you would never knowingly date a bi guy, tell him he deserves better.

A relationship question that doesn’t involve sex: Occasionally when two people live together, they bump into each other or one may get in the way of the other. Is it reasonable to be put off if rather than simply hearing “Excuse me” when you are inadvertently in someone’s way, the person trying to gain access says, “Do you have to stand there?”

-Just Seems Rude People who are courteous to strangers (“Excuse me, can I squeeze past you?”) and contemptuous with intimate partners (“Do you have to stand there, you fucking dumbass?”) don’t value their partners and don’t deserve intimacy. People who are assholes to everyone don’t deserve intimacy either, of course, but they get points for being consistent.

I recently posted an online ad for a jack-off buddy. I got a response from a man who turned out to be a gorgeous, young Sri Lankan dude with a huge, beautiful uncut cock. Anyway, I was really looking forward to him jacking me off and vice versa. But when I arrived, he said he was only interested in me giving him a massage and then a handjob. Apparently, he’s a straight guy who wanted to experiment with men in a very limited way. Like I said, SUPER HOT, so I happily obliged. But after he came, I was really aching for release myself. But as I stated earlier, he made it clear he did not want to reciprocate. After we were finished, he indicated that he might hit me up again. Do you think I should continue with the massage and “happy ending” in hopes he will someday feel comfortable enough to reciprocate? Or should

I recently spent a wonderful weekend with a young woman from out of town who identifies as queer and poly. Being the curious guy I am, I had her explain what these things meant to her. She went on to say that she is considering changing from poly to nonmonogamous. I find this confusing. I’m certainly nonmonogamous, but I’ve never thought of myself as poly. What is the difference?

-Confused Over Lines Inside Names I would describe the difference as googleable, COLIN. But since you asked: A nonmonogamous person has sex with their partner and others; a poly person has or is open to having committed and concurrent romantic relationships.

For one example: An ethically nonmonogamous woman fucks the boyfriend/husband she loves and other guys she doesn’t; a poly woman has two (or more) guys she both loves and fucks.

I have two complaints: one with the world and one with you. My problem with the world is that it seems to think it is possible to embrace the rights of sex workers and still stigmatize the men who employ them. I am in a happy monogamish marriage, and I enjoy a very good, vanilla-but-bordering-on-tantric sex life with my wife. Early on, when we discussed how open our marriage should be, we decided it would be all right for me to see escorts several times a year. This gives me some sexual variety and keeps her from feeling threatened by my becoming emotionally involved with a third party. She is very mono and has no interest in going outside the marriage for sex. My quarrel with you has to do with your oft-repeated advice that people should break things off with partners who don’t perform oral sex.

My wife doesn’t like to give head—and I really don’t like getting it from her, since she doesn’t like doing it. It is, however, one of the things on my list for my quarterly pro session. So I go down on her, she doesn’t go down on me, and I see escorts who do. And… -It Works For Us In regards to your first complaint, IWFU, there are sex workers out there fighting for their rights and fighting the stigma against sex work—along with fighting prohibition, the Nordic Model, and SESTA (google it)—but you don’t see the men who employ them stepping up and joining the fight. “[It’s time for] all of you clients out there [to] get off your duffs and fight,” as sex worker and sex-worker-rights advocate Maggie McNeill wrote on her blog. “Regular clients outnumber full-time whores by at least 60 to 1. Gentlemen, I suggest you rethink your current silence, unless you want to be the next one with your name and picture splashed across newspapers, TV screens, and websites.”

In regards to your second complaint, IWFU, it is true that I’ve said—on one or two occasions—that oral comes standard and any model that arrives without oral should be returned to the lot. I’ve also said that you can’t be in an LTR without paying the price of admission, and I’ve said that a lot more often. If not getting oral at home is the price of admission you’re willing to pay to be with your wife, and if allowing you to get oral elsewhere is the price of admission she’s willing to pay to be with you, then Godspeed, IWFU, and tip the sex workers you patronize and speak up to fight the stigma against doing sex work and hiring sex workers.

THE CALENDAR with Claire Rodill

COURTESY CLAIRE RODILL

Lifelong dancer Claire Rodill has been a dance and movement therapist for 25 years, primarily working with people with physical movement and cognitive disorders. Her new weekly Wednesday afternoon class, Dance for All Abilities and Levels (2 pm Wednesday May 30. $10 donation.

Dance Station, 947-B W Alameda St.) is a great opportunity for folks who like to move, particularly those with limited mobility, to get some exercise and socialization.

All styles, types of music, types of people and types of experience are welcome; Rodill just requests you give her a heads-up if you plan on coming (call 577-8187 or email crodill99@gmail.com). (Charlotte Jusinski) What should people know before they come?

There’s no wrong way to do the movements. They don’t need to worry about making a mistake; the way they move is the way they move. They don’t have to look exactly like the teacher, they can move the way their body wants to move. … There’s no experience necessary, they can go at their own pace, and if they normally have an aid for their disorder, it’s requested that they bring it with them. Virtually all the movements are designed to be done seated.

What about for someone like me, for whom dancing is their worst nightmare?

You would be the interesting challenge! My theory, and you can ask any dancer, is that anyone can dance.

There’s no such thing as two left feet. People who are reluctant to dance, they have this idea that you have to look like a ballerina or something like that, but dance is just moving to music. Period. Having the expectation that you need a special ability—no! When you see people walking down the street, or marching, it’s one, two, one, two, one, two. … All movement has rhythm.

You just listen to your heart. Your heart beats with a rhythm. Just go by the beat of your heart. It’s very natural, and anyone can dance. And if you absolutely are not convinced, I also teach aerobics with weights, so you don’t really have to take a dance class. I have a repertoire of different movement techniques.

What about someone who’s in decent health, but just doesn’t feel like they move enough?

I got a call from a guy just a couple days ago who wants to learn just a couple simple moves. He told me to go on YouTube and check out ‘Uptown Funk.’ … The class is called Dance for All Abilities—so if you have a bad knee or something, I will teach at the level of a normally-abled person. So for this guy, I’m going to teach a routine I already know: It’s from West Side Story, the Sharks and the Jets. I’m going to teach that rumble, and the people who have more serious disorders … they can do the same routine, but seated. Whatever level they’re at, they can go for it with freedom of movement, or we adapt the dance.

It’s for everybody. … For people who are able-bodied, they can socialize and get to know people. There’s still a stigma about people with disabilities, and this is an inclusive atmosphere where everyone is just a human being.

THEATER

ACTING OUT Trigger Warning

BY C H A R LOT T E J U S I N S K I c o p y e d i t o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

words, still inspires a keep-your-distance feeling. Pusztai himself vanishes.

And, yes, we see the assault. (He doesn’t actually succeed in criminal sexual penetration, mind you—which becomes an important point later.) And, yes, it’s immensely scary. But I was firmly grounded to my notebook, staying in the real world so that I could write: “crazy eyes holy shit Olesen + Pusztai are revelations.”

The scene, which could so easily lend itself to the awkward and hesitant, in these hands is sublime—which feels weird to say, given the subject mater, but these actors are unbelievably good. They pull no punches, are utterly unafraid of violence and lack all squeamishness. For this first CAMERON GAY

efore I walked into Extremities, I knew it was about a woman who is sexually assaulted, but manages to capture and torture her attacker. Unsure of how the script would handle the assault, I reminded myself that theater that makes us uncomfortable is the best kind of theater.

I wondered if maybe we’d start after the fact; if we, viewing a set of the woman’s house, would see her run in the door in tears, just having been attacked; or if we’d somehow be thrown directly into whatever it is she’d do immediately after. In hindsight, this is pretty dumb thinking—of course the play isn’t going to spare us the actual event—but it was my thinking nonetheless.

So, when the lights come up and Marjorie (a role originated by Susan Sarandon and Farrah Fawcett, and here played by Mariah Olesen) strolls blithely onstage in a silk bathrobe, all is calm. Shit.

Okay. We’re starting from square one.

We’re seeing everything.

Heading into this production, I also figured the rapist would be some kind of clean-cut such-a-nice-boy Brock Turneresque type of scumbag—charming and with such a bright future till he knocks you unconscious. I based this on the casting: The Animal, as he’s most often called, is played by Koppany Pusztai, and a more clean-cut, approachable, strapping young actor Santa Fe does not have. But when Pusztai makes his entrance, he is transformed from the person any of us have seen before; immensely sketchy, intimidating in that “hey, I’m just a nice guy” way, casing the house, casing Marjorie, coiled like a spring. Pusztai, who spent his formative years in New Jersey, whips out a fantastic accent for the role as well—not a caricature in the least, but rather the wise guy who, without

scene, perhaps the hardest scene of the play, I can’t give anything but praise—and a lot is also due to fight coordinator Ambrose Ferber.

Once the adrenaline has passed, the play settles into a more intellectual exploration of what to do next. Marjorie’s roommates come home: Terry, a quite bratty girly-girl (Marianna Gallegos), and Patricia, a level-headed social worker (Nicole Bartlett). Gallegos (who is often also very funny, and thank goodness—we need some levity in this one) and Bartlett are nice foils to each other and to Olesen. The roommates serve their distinct respective roles, and never do their parts fade into one another. (Though I’d like to think that a woman couldn’t possibly be as petty as Terry and that Gallegos was overplaying it, perhaps that’s wishful thinking.)

The play itself, written by William Mastrosimone and originally produced in 1982, seems sculpted for this #MeToo era—which is quite depressing, and illuminates that we’ve lived in this era for quite a while now (we just happen to have a hashtag for it now). And it’s not just a good play for this time because it involves a woman fending off an attacker; the discussion between the attacker and the three roommates after the fact is also an infuriating glimpse into anti-woman sentiments that are just as venomous today as they were in 1982, or 1782, or 1182.

One of the main arguments the roommates have against Marjorie’s detainment and torture of her attacker is that she

doesn’t have a case because he didn’t actually rape her; “before they believe a woman in court she has to be dead on arrival,” Marjorie spits.

My first instinct here, more than three decades after these lines were written, is: “Times are different now! Trust women!

Speak your truth! We’re behind you!”

But then I look around. Apparently, we are not. We, as a country, as a society, are absolutely not. And in the characters of Terry and Patricia, who waffle between calmly supporting Marjorie and asking her why she “provokes” advances by dressing the way she does (the Animal opines about her “little white shorts”), the complicated, sickening layers of women’s treatment of women is laid bare.

Indeed, that’s where the most interesting dynamics lie here: not between the women and the Animal, but between the women themselves. They are not a united front. When the Animal waits until one woman leaves the room and begins to turn the others against her, and they believe him, you want to call bullshit. You want to say that wouldn’t happen today. You want to say this is old-school, that we’re better than this now, that we’ve learned, to get out of 1982 and into 2018. Even two years ago, we may have said that.

But this is 2018, and it’s not a secret: This play could have been written yesterday. Nothing has changed.

In the second act, Marjorie does go into monologues that feel contrived, but it’s no fault of this production team and Olesen handles them like a champ. Mastrosimone went out of his way to imbue a strong sense of personality and psychology in Marjorie (I can see him in his study in 1981, glasses perched on his nose, checking “PTSD” off his list of issues to touch on), which slows the action.

But overall, the four actors, under the direction of Melissa Chambers, deftly eliminate logistical stumbling blocks so the audience can ponder the meatier issues at play. At one point, in bargaining with Marjorie on how to handle her captive, Patricia reasons with her with a concept that should feel outlandish, but isn’t: Noting no bruises or semen or torn clothes, Patricia says, “You don’t have a case.”

Marjorie, tool clutched in her fist, responds: “That’s why I have a hammer.”

And it’s up to the audience to decide whether that’s OK. EXTREMITIES

Mariah Olesen and Koppany Pusztai are such solid actors that even the scariest scenes are too good to look away from.

COURTESY COCKTAILS AND CULTURE

Spirits in the Material World

Drink the drinks, eat the foods at this year’s Cocktails and Culture Festival.

A three-day weekend celebrates excellence in the craft cocktail world

BY MARY FRANCIS CHEESEMAN a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

F

or three years, the New Mexico Cocktails and Culture Festival has helped kick off summer. Originally born out of a desire to share and celebrate the work behind the scenes of the mixology world, it aims to achieve a balance between throwing a three-day cocktail party interspersed with thoughtful (sometimes healthy) activities, but also neutral ground between members of the hospitality industry and everyday people who appreciate well-made libations.

“Fifteen years ago, if you saw someone shaking a Manhattan, you wouldn’t think twice,” founder Natalie Bovis says. (For those who don’t know, you’re supposed to stir it.) “The festival is very much geared towards both guests and restaurant professionals coming together and sharing an experience that results in learning something new and getting to know each other better.”

Bovis hopes to help the curious develop a taste for the world of craft cocktails, which she calls “the liquid aspect of the culinary world.” Just as chefs take basic ingredients and mix them together, so too does a bartender assemble various elements to achieve a nuanced drink. And as we celebrate a global approach to food that prioritizes fresh, seasonal ingredients, so too has the world of mixology changed for the better.

“At some point, it became necessary to reference the 19th century and go back to the old techniques,” says Dale DeGroff, guest speaker, master mixologist and James Beard Award-winning author. “And now we have access to different tips and inspiration from all over the world, and ingredients that come from the actual ground.”

DeGroff further explores the historic aspect of cocktails in his presentation on Saturday June 2: “Gamblers, Whiskey and Flying Horses.”

“I actually lived near Belmont Park [in New York], and horse racing is very close to my heart,” DeGroff explains. “I’ll talk about where the horses came from, I talk about American whiskey—and the con-

nections between the two from the very beginning and how it evolved.” This will no doubt be one of the highlights of the festival, not least because it features drinks like colonial punch, Preakness cocktails and mint juleps.

The festivities begin with two cocktail pairing dinners: one at Coyote Café on Wednesday May 30 and another Thursday May 31 at Eloisa. Tickets are $125 and separate from the weekend pass. Coyote Café’s dinner features cocktails crafted with various brands from the Beam Suntory portfolio (think Jim Beam, Knob Creek, Pinnacle and the like), alongside a dinner prepared by Chef Eduardo Rodriguez. For the drinks, owner Quinn Stephenson collaborates with Bobby “G” Gleason, national ambassador of the United States Bartender Guild and master mixologist for Beam Suntory.

“Meeting the local bartending community also gives me new ideas to see what they are doing with cocktails and the unique ingredients they have access to,” Gleason tells SFR. Eloisa’s dinner features cocktails crafted by head bartender Tom Street, owner of Street Brothers Beverage Company, paired with dishes created by James Beard Award-winning Chef John Sedlar.

Gleason, meanwhile, is also slated to judge the annual Taco Wars event on Friday June 1, and to teach the “Mixology Made Easy” seminar on Saturday June 2.

Taco Wars itself showcases tequila-based cocktails paired with street tacos crafted by local restaurants like the Anasazi Restaurant, Rowley Farmhouse Ales and Albuquerque’s Backstreet Grill.

On Saturday June 2, events include the Mind Body Spirits yoga class on the Drury rooftop, an array of seminars and the Chef and Shaker Challenge, an event with 16 chef and bartender teams representing

FOOD

top-tier restaurants from Santa Fe and Albuquerque.

On Sunday June 3, join a fundraising bike ride for the Helen David Relief Fund, which raises money for female bartenders suffering from breast cancer.

The 30-mile ride leaves the Drury Plaza Hotel at 9 am.

Later, the Bloody Battle & Cocktail Brunch contest starts at noon; by happy chance, its three competing bartenders represent a level of female excellence in the hospitality world. Carla Gilfillan, beverage director of Hotel Albuquerque and manager of Casa Esencia and QBar Lounge; Jessica O’Brien of Albuquerque’s Sister Bar; and Andrea Duran of Eloisa are the finalists, and their combined presence on the floor of this competition is a testament to the positive changes taking place in the greater world of mixology and culinary arts.

Every time it seems young Han Solo is about to face some overwhelming and perilous situation in the newest Star Wars offshoot film, a little voice in the back of our head says, “Yeah, but we know it’s gonna be OK.” We know he’ll live, we know he’ll fight another day, we know that no matter what else happens, he’ll one day rescue a princess, fall in love, have a smarmy goth kid who goes full Sith and on and on.

And there’s the rub, even if it’s from a film that famously lost its original directors and brought on Ron “Willow” Howard to reshoot a hefty number of scenes.

In Solo: A Star Wars Story, we get the lowdown on what made Han Solo Han Solo, from his early adventures and his surname to his lost love and iconic friendships with that Kashyyykian champion himself Chewbacca and the super-sexy Lando Calrissian. But a significant chunk of the story falls flat under our preconceived notions about the character, leaving audiences to force-chuckle at that irritating movie trope wherein someone says something like, “You should fight for something more than yourself!” We know, of course, that he will one day.

IT AIN’T GREAT, STAR WARS IS STILL PRETTY FUN - LOW STAKES; BORING HUMOR

Hail Caesar’s Alden Ehrenreich is more than capable as young Han, a rogue-ish type with a killer smile enamored by the idea of an outlaw lifestyle, but ultimately a survivor with a heart of gold. After a difficult upbringing in the slums of some planet, Han winds up fighting for the Empire in hopes of becoming a pilot, but Q’ira, the woman he left behind (Emilia Clarke of Game of Thrones), preys on him always. Han is thus wrapped up in the intergalactic game of smuggling and thievery to try and make a buck and get back to her. Under the wing of the criminal Beckett (Woody Harrelson, Cheers), Han learns and grows and evolves and blah blah blah.

Donald Glover’s turn as Lando becomes the most exciting part of the film as Glover nails that Billy Dee Williams vocal affect and plants the seeds of self-preservation we know from The Empire Strikes Back. Harrelson shines as well as the unscrupulous space burglar with shifting allegiances and priorities. Clarke, meanwhile, feels

a tad goofy and underused, a romantic interest whose backstory becomes “Don’t worry about it.”

But Han’s doing-it-for-the-girl thing seems a fine enough motivation as any, even if a more complete idea of his guilt over not saving Q’ira is poorly explored; Chewie remains his most important relationship.

And it’s middling low-stakes fun through the galaxy, though in comparison to 2016’s Rogue One—a story with characters we hadn’t forged feelings about a million years ago—the Star Wars world has felt much more fresh and intriguing. Everything here is tempered by what we already know and lacks a certain drama because of that. Oh, and enough with the sassy robots, Star Wars. It’s starting to feel stale.

SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY Directed by Howard With Ehrenreich, Glover, Clarke, Harrelson and Chewbacca Regal, Violet Crown, PG-13, 135 min.

+ RIVETING STAR; TOUCHING FAMILY

RELATIONSHIPS - NOT ENOUGH EDGE FOR ITS SUBJECT

In Canadian director Christian Duguay’s French-made A Bag of Marbles, Dorian Le Clech and Batiste Fleurial take on the roles of young brothers fleeing the Nazi occupation in France during World War II. As brothers, Le Clech and Fleurial’s repartee is utterly convincing, but even as you root for them to stay together; it feels as if there had been more obstacles to pull them apart, you might root for them even more.

Rookie actor Le Clech is outstanding as Jo. Expressive and deep-eyed, he carries the bulk of the film’s emotional weight. As the brothers’ journey unfolds, it seems more and more as if they are simply lucky—ridiculously so. Not only is everyone they meet along the way willing to help by forging baptism certificates, hiding them and sacrificing themselves, but the rest of their family—whom the brothers, of course, thought they’d never see again—manages to meet up with them throughout the film with no repercussions.

This is supposed to be WWII, but most of the danger and tragedy seems to go on in the background while the brothers make new friends and romp through sun-filled meadows.

+ FUNNY AND ENTERTAINING - IT’S NOT REALLY A “REAL” MOVIE, NOW, IS IT?

No one is going to accuse Ryan Reynolds and crew of trying to make a “good” movie with Deadpool 2, but it’s definitely one of those fun summertime romps you always hear about.

Reynolds is, of course, Deadpool, the merc with a mouth who regenerates like Wolverine, fights with the power of a million ninjas and kills … well, he kills pretty much anyone he can.

When last we left him, Deadpool’s affairs seemed in order and he’d found his own place within the Fox-owned Marvel universe (we see you, Venom, we’re just not sure what the deal with you is yet), but his affinity for doing what he considers right at all costs has put him in a bit of a bind. No spoilers, but he’s trying to die. Throw in a handful of lesser-known (or cared-about) X-Men and X-Force characters (like Domino, Shatterstar, Colossus and Zeitgeist), a number of in-jokes for comics fans, a barely-there story about helping people (maybe) and Josh “Also Thanos” Brolin as the time-traveling supersoldier Cable, and you’ve got a recipe for madness—and sequels, even if it’s beyond irreverent and over-packed with one-line groaners and over-the-top violence.

Reynolds does his Reynolds thing, breaking the fourth wall, using that voice of his and becoming the victim and perpetrator of some seriously gruesome carnage. Brolin, meanwhile, finds that happy middle ground between emotionless straight man and foil as his character travels back in time to prevent a horrible future tragedy. Regardless—and say what you will—the action in Deadpool 2 is bonkers-fun.

The award for best new character goes to Atlanta’s Zazie Beetz as Domino, a mutant whose power is just that she’s pretty lucky. It sounds dumb, and Deadpool himself mocks her for it, but between her kickass fight scenes and Beetz’ laidback, funny delivery, we’re definitely into it.

Round out the rest with some ridiculous and only-sometimes-funny jokes from side characters—including TJ “I Make Bomb Threats” Miller—and you get a perfectly fine movie that certainly won’t give the Marvel Studios juggernaut a run for its money, but still delights in poking fun at it nonetheless. Director David Leitch (Atomic Blonde) deserves recognition for allowing the silliness to always throttle the story forward, just don’t take your kids—and make sure to hang around for the self-referential mid-credit scenes. Shit’s rich. (Alex De Vore) Jean Cocteau Cinema, Violet Crown, Regal, R, 119 min.

+ FASCINATING AND IMPORTANT - SOME INTERVIEWS FEEL SUPERFLUOUS

Now in her mid-80s, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is enjoying a bit of latein-life rockstar status. Much of this has to do with her shuffling more toward liberalism after George W Bush appointed two conservative justices during his presidential tenure (Ginsburg was decidedly more moderate in her rulings beforehand) and the subsequent numerous dissenting opinions she’s filed, such as against a 2014 ruling that found crafts mega-corp Hobby Lobby wouldn’t need to take women’s reproductive health into account within its employee health coverage. Regardless, she’s come to be known as a bit of a badass and an icon not just for feminism, but fighting for what’s morally right. American history fans are no doubt aware of Ginsburg’s track record dating back to the 1970s when, as a lawyer, she first argued before the Supreme Court and worked to turn the tide for women in this country.

About time, then, that she’d become the focus of a documentary—and a damn fine one at that. In RBG, from documentarians Julie Cohen and Betsy West, we finally get the full picture.

It’s a tale of breaking boundaries and emotional resonance wherein Ginsburg is proven to be

crusading, and we can only hope RBG is shown to everyone—particularly young people—for a long time to come. (ADV) Violet Crown, PG, 98 min.

DISOBEDIENCE

This one dude doesn’t know shit in Disobedience.

not only a staunch ally to women, but to men, people of color and indeed the American underdog. Through interviews with friends, family, former clients and current colleagues, a sense of deep admiration from all sides of the aisle emerges proving that even those who might disagree with Ginsburg can’t help but be drawn to her grace and enamored with her style and accomplishments. We also see a broad overview of a number of cases she presided over and how she handled them.

She is funny and composed, an avid arts and opera fan who seemingly never tires and takes seriously her charge to work for the American people. For Ginsburg, we learn (or re-learn) that the job is never about partisanship or special interests; it’s about helping to shape the country in a way that is mutually beneficial for all.

She’s not naive, however, and plans to continue the fight, she says, “so long as she can go at it full-steam.” There are no signs of stopping, and it’s endlessly inspiring and amusing to observe her boom within pop culture.

Be warned, however, that some of the content may drive one mad—from the shamelessly one-sided ideology of old white men and pervasive lack of equality in America, to the level to which Ginsburg has constantly had to rise in order to prove herself. Tirelessly. Again and again.

Still, we’re glad to know she’s still out there

We can all pretty much agree that RGB rules.

+ McADAMS IS STELLAR - WEISZ IS SO-SO

After a Best Foriegn Language Film Oscar win for A Fantastic Woman, director Sebastián Lelio is all the rage. Thus, Santa Fe finally gets a look at his other 2017 film, Disobedience, the tale of a young Jewish woman named Ronit (Rachel Weisz) who returns to her strict Jewish community in London after the death of her father and years away. No one is thrilled to see Ronit, but when she reunites with her childhood friend Esti (Rachel McAdams), sparks fly and we get a clearer idea of why she left her life behind so easily.

Similarly to last year’s excellent Menashe, it’s fascinating to glimpse the inner workings of insular Jewish communities, and Leilo handles the traditions, customs and strictures with care. Still, we definitely feel like outsiders looking in right alongside Ronit, and it’s uncomfortable at best.

Rightly so. Family members and friends consistently judge and admonish Ronit for her choices, but as the chemistry ramps up between her and Esti, a knee-jerk true-love defense starts to kick in. Further complicating things is Esti’s husband Dovid (Alessandro Nivola), the next in line for the top rabbi position who senses something is amiss with his wife.

Weisz feels lackadaisical as Ronit, constantly swallowing her pride and feelings but never truly embracing them before shirking them off as fundamental differences between her and her people. We get a sense that she’s upset, but it feels more like she’s reciting words than embodying her character’s unenviable position.

McAdams, on the other hand, is a revelation, all at once cold out of self-preservation, melancholy out of loss and torn between her responsibilities to herself and to her husband and faith. Most scenes without her lag, and we truly do empathize with her position, especially after one of the most intense sex scenes in modern film.

Still, we can’t help but resent Ronit for showing up, kicking the hornet’s nest and then fleeing. This could be because we come to feel protective of Esti, or it could be in how we project the aftermath of our own poor decisions onto the characters. Either way, it’s all well and good to say things like “love conquers all;” it’s another thing entirely to live by that. (ADV) Violet Crown, R, 114 min.

+ IT’S FUN, Y’KNOW? - SO FAST-PACED IT’S KIND OF TRICKY TO CARE

You might consider some of the following to contain spoilers, but they’re MILD, all things considered.

It’s all been leading to this—y’know, not counting some of those X-Men movies.

Or Spiderman. Or the Spiderman reboot.

Anyway, all the Marvel Studios movies we’ve been watching since Jon Favreau and Robert Downey Jr. gave us a decent Iron Man flick in 2008 have been leading to this, and while it might not disappoint from an action standpoint or a tying-plotlines-together standpoint, Avengers: Infinity War is basically a bazillion scenes of explosions layered between melodrama, a whole lot of “remember when?” moments, and the kind of CGI that makes your moviegoing companion say, “Damn, that’s really good CGI.” When last we left the Avengers, the team was split and ultra-villain Thanos was hanging around the galaxy trying to get his absurdly gigantic hands on the six infinity stones forged in the crucible of the Big Bang—stones that would give him dominion over time, power, soul, earth, wind and fire (jay kay about the last three—he just really likes that band). See, the plan is to snuff out half the universe’s population so nobody suffers as much anymore—which Thanos sees as mercy—but, since they’re apparently good and all, the Avengers (and their offshoot pals like Spider Man, Dr. Strange, the Guardians of the Galaxy and pretty much anyone else who can hold a gun or use mind powers or blast lasers from their fingers) set out to stop him. Caught up?

Cool.

Obviously, this film was bonkers-expensive to make and, as such, comes with some of the best special effects of all time. Thanos alone looks far better than trailers have led us to believe, and it’s hats-off to Josh Brolin for bringing the heat with both voice and mo-cap work. The odd thing is his utter calmness in the face of his own genocide plan, but this makes him far scarier than he had any right to be; the wrinkled chin thing doesn’t do him any favors, though.

The rest of the cast boils down mostly to the quips for which they’re known. Iron Man (Downey Jr.) is, of course, his arrogant self, while Spider-Man (Tom Holland) cracks cutesy and wise in the vicinity of Dr. Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch), who does his whole stoic-master-of-the-universe thing; Star Lord (Chris Pratt) gets goofy while Thor (Chris Hemsworth) is still a little more silly after his last outing in Thor 3: The Search for More Money. The problem, however, is that for every scene that kicks off amping up the audience

with a superhero we feel we know, there’s such a brief window in which to provide exposition before it’s on to the next. It’s exciting at first, but grows a little tiresome without enough screen time for … well, for much of anything.

Fight scenes are cool, alright, they’re just stuffed in alongside so many other things that the pace feels frantic and the overall oomph of the ending feels pointless. I mean, if we really wanna talk spoilers, here’s the elephant in the room: They’ll probably win.

Still, it’s Thanos’ show, and Brolin doesn’t disappoint. It’s another story altogether for flat jokes from Groot, Paul Bettany’s over-the-top drama as Vision and Peter Dinklage’s mindbogglingly awful British accent and ham-fisted performance as a space dwarf (their words, not ours) who makes crazy weapons for gods with a forge powered by a dying star. Scarlett Johansson may as well not even be in this thing, as she pretty much just punches a space monster or two. Elizabeth Olsen is fine as Scarlet Witch. She’s fine.

We’ll definitely hand out points for directors Anthony and Joe Russo’s ability to smartly capture the differing tones of the multiple Marvel films in a cohesive way, we just hope the sequel (did you doubt there’d be one?) slows its roll a little or at least gives us a chance to catch our breath with a bit more character development.

MIND BODY SPIRIT ACUPUNCTURE Rob Brezsny

Week of May 30th

ARIES (March 21-April 19): A critic described Leonardo da Vinci’s painting the Mona Lisa as “the most visited, most written about, most sung about, most parodied work of art in the world.” It hasn’t been sold recently, but is estimated to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Today it’s kept in the worldrenowned Louvre museum in Paris, where it’s viewed by millions of art-lovers. But for years after its creator’s death, it enjoyed little fanfare while hanging in the bathroom of the French King Francois. I’d love to see a similar evolution in your own efforts, Aries: a rise from humble placement and modest appreciation to a more interesting fate and greater approval. The astrological omens suggest that you have more power than usual to make this happen in the coming weeks and months.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “Dear Oracle: I find myself in the weird position of trying to decide between doing the good thing and doing the right thing. If I opt to emphasize sympathy and kindness, I may look like an eager-to-please wimp with shaky principles. But if I push hard for justice and truth, I may seem rude and insensitive. Why is it so challenging to have integrity? Vexed Libra.” Dear Libra: My advice is to avoid the allor-nothing approach. Be willing to be half-good and half-right. Sometimes the highest forms of integrity require you to accept imperfect solutions.

Jurassic Park featured four minutes of CGI that required a year to create. I hope that in the coming weeks, you will summon equivalent levels of old-school tenacity and persistence and attention to detail as you devote yourself to a valuable task that you love. Your passion needs an infusion of discipline. Don’t be shy about grunting.

the truth: Now is an excellent time to seek retribution against those who have opposed you, but the best ways to do that would be by proving them wrong, surpassing their accomplishments, and totally forgiving them.

DR. JOANNA CORTI, DOM, Powerful Medicine, Powerful Results. Homeopathy, Acupuncture. Micro-current SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You have waited long enough to retaliate against your adversaries. It’s high time (Acupuncture without needles.). Parasite, Liver/cleanses. to stop simmering with frustration and resentment. Take Nitric Oxide. Pain Relief. direct action!

You can order it CGI, computer generated imagery. The technology is here: tinyurl.com/ElephantManure. JUST KIDDING! I mis- Worker’s Compensation and sophisticated and efficient. But in the early days of its use, led you with the preceding statements. It would in fact be Auto Accidents Insurance producing such realistic fantasies was painstaking and accepted 505-501-0439 time-intensive. For example, Steven Spielberg’s 1993 film a mistake for you to express such vulgar revenge. Here’s

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): On February 17, 1869, Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleyev had an appointment with a local cheese-making company to provide his expert consultation. But he never made it. A blast of inspiration overtook him soon after he awoke, and he stayed home to tend to the blessed intrusion. He spent that day as well as the next two perfecting his vision of the periodic table of the elements, which he had researched and thought about for a long time. Science was forever transformed by Mendeleyev’s breakthrough.

I doubt your epiphanies in the coming weeks will have a similar power to remake the whole world, Gemini. But they could very well remake your world. When they arrive, honor them. Feed them. Give them enough room to show you everything they’ve got.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Marketing experts say that motivating a person to say yes to a big question is more likely if you first build momentum by asking them smaller questions to which it’s easy to say yes. I encourage you to adopt this slant for your own purposes in the coming weeks. It’s prime time to extend invitations and make requests that you’ve been waiting for the right moment to risk. People whom you need on your side will, I suspect, be more receptive than usual—and with good reasons—but you may still have to be smoothly strategic in your approach.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): I bet you’ll be offered at least one valuable gift, and possibly more. But I’m concerned that you may not recognize them for their true nature. So I’ve created an exercise to enhance your ability to identify and claim these gifts-in-disguise. Please ruminate on the following concepts: 1. a CANCER (June 21-July 22): Ninety-five percent of your pain that can heal; 2. a shadow that illuminates; 3. an fears have little or no objective validity. Some are deluunknown or anonymous ally; 4. a secret that nurtures sions generated by the neurotic parts of your imagination. intimacy; 5. a power akin to underground lightning; 6.

Others are delusions you’ve absorbed from the neurotic an invigorating boost disguised as tough love. spew of other people’s imaginations. What I’ve just told you is both bad news and good news. On the one hand, AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): When I was a kid attending it’s a damn shame you feel so much irrational and elementary schools in the American Midwest, recess was unfounded anxiety. On the other hand, hearing my asser- a core part of my educational experience. For 45 minutes tion that so much of it is irrational and unfounded might each day, we were excused from our studies so we could mobilize you to free yourself from its grip. I’m pleased to indulge in free-form play—outdoors, if the weather was inform you that the coming weeks will be an excellent nice, or else in the gymnasium. But in recent years, schools time to wage a campaign to do just that. June can and in the U.S. have shrunk the time allotted for recess. Many should be Fighting for Your Freedom from Fear Month. schools have eliminated it altogether. Don’t they understand this is harmful to the social, emotional, and physical LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): During the next four weeks, I’ll health of their students? In any case, Aquarius, I hope you celebrate if you search for and locate experiences that will heal the part of your heart that’s still a bit broken. My move in the opposite direction during the coming weeks.

You need more than your usual quota of time away from sleep at night will be extra deep and my dreams extra sweet if I know you’re drumming up practical support for the grind. More fun and games, please! More messing your feisty ideals. I’ll literally jump for joy if you hunt around and merriment! More recess! down new teachings that will ultimately ensure you start PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): For many years, actor Mel making a daring dream come true in 2019. And my soul will soar if you gravitate toward the mind-expanding kind Blanc provided the voice for Bugs Bunny, a cartoon character who regularly chowed down on raw carrots. But Blanc of hedonism rather than the mind-shrinking variety. himself did not like raw carrots.
