But I gotta say I enjoy the street festival in Oakland more than #SFPride, much less crowded and much easier to enjoy things.

Gay jury duty
Marching in the San Francisco Pride parade with a corporate contingent is boring and inconvenient.
Even though I’ve lived in San Francisco for over 20 years, this year was only the second time I’ve been to the official Pride parade and the first time I marched in it. I’ve generally thought it was, roughly in order of disagreeableness, too hot, too crowded, too loud, too corporate, and too uptight. And most importantly, I thought it was pointless. This year felt different.

My legs/ankles/hips/back are toast. But here I am in my Dansko orthotic sandals indoors. And feeling better.

Beautiful sunset along the Bay tonight, closing out another #SFPride weekend, my 22nd since moving out here. 30th anniversary of one of my first marches, the 1993 March on Washington. Feeling a mix of nostalgia, sadness, and rage, while also relishing how far we come. It’s breathtaking to see how the Friday trans celebration has grown, while maintaining a community feel. But things feel so dire for trans folks right now. Always helpful to #GetOutside for some #TransJoy.

@cynthiarose I've been to one (maybe two) in my 26 years here that #SFPride fell on a cool, cloudy day like today. Nevertheless, I still had a blast.
I could be wrong, but I cannot recall a time in the last 20 years when #SFPride fell on a cool, cloudy day. Certainly every time I went it was hot as fuck, and the years I didn’t go, count the heat as one of the reasons. Shit, I remember back in 2004, a good deal of the heat was emanating from Gavin Newsom himself, he was our fucking hero that year, legalizing SSM while wearing a tiiiiiiiiight tighty tight lil short sleeved shirt, skin glistening in the sun, and you just know he smelled good…. Have fun out there everyone, be kind, and stay safe! #SFBayArea #SanFrancisco #HappyPride #BiVisibility #LGBTQ 🏳️🌈🩷💙💜🏳️🌈

SF Pride's list of ban items includes water and food, sounds like an attack on people who can't afford the over priced concession stands.
How wise is banning whistles when historically they've been used by the LGBT+ community as a form of self defense?
My other question is how do they have the Faerie Village if marijuana is banned?
This confirms I'm staying away from SF Corporate Pride and sticking with Juanita More's People's March and Rally.

SF Pride's website is lacking any information about who may be performing at the festival or what time performances are. Does anyone know where I can find this information?
