COYOTE

Yes, Game 6 of the WNBA Finals is going to be at the godforsaken hour of 9:30am on Thursday, so here’s our running list of spots in the Bay Area where you can watch it — and maybe get some breakfast and coffee, while you're at it. www.coyotemedia.org/watch-valkyr...

Thanks to @coyotemedia.org and @mingemi.bsky.social for covering this debacle! bsky.app/profile/coyo...

"And I bet the “save women’s sports” people are gonna be so mad about this actual thing that sucks, right?" They're all so silent now!

I’m so mad about this. Not only is it going to be a pain to figure out how to watch this in the middle of the workday, it’s a disadvantage to the Valkyries to have to start a game at 9:30 AM pacific

I'm not a basketball fan in any way, but the idea that a Championship Game wouldn't take precedent over a regular season game is so ludicrous, it's obviously only happening for one fucking reason, and it's as the article states: "so that men aren’t inconvenienced."

Marisa, as is regularly true, is pitch-perfect here – at least in reflecting my consternation/dismay/outrage

The Game 6 start time made me mad enough to write a column. For @coyotemedia.org www.coyotemedia.org/valkyries-fi...

Today: We’ve got @mingemi.bsky.social comin in hot with her take on the WNBA Finals Game 6 timing debacle. Why is this happening? “So men aren’t inconvenienced.” www.coyotemedia.org/valkyries-fi...

You don’t have to be particularly woo to sense something haunted here: A disproportionate amount of death has taken place on this land. www.coyotemedia.org/oak-knoll-ha...

we got Spooky Bay Area expert @bethwinegarner.bsky.social on @coyotemedia.org today folks! 🪦

Look, maybe we just leave Santa Rosa’s haunted sanatorium turned psychiatric hospital that sits on top of an earthquake fault alone? www.coyotemedia.org/oak-knoll-ha...

This week on the COYOTE Calendar: hot goths, hot broths, and hot hoochies www.coyotemedia.org/coyote-calen...

This week, Emma and Soleil converse about YCSE: "One thing I keep thinking about is the failures of tech journalism here. The chance to tell a story about a young, attractive, blonde woman who’s also the next Steve Jobs must have been overpowering." www.coyotemedia.org/you-can-see-...

Reporter Paul C. Kelly Campos sat down with the co-founder of Península 360 Press, a Spanish-language news outlet. In addition to a website, it has a mobile radio cabin, collaborates with local theater groups, and one of its most beloved reporters is... a puppet. www.coyotemedia.org/peninsula-36...

Things I don’t do because I’m scared of men harassing me: get gas after dark. Use headphones while I run. Wear short dresses. Honk at cars that cut me off. Smile at groups of dudes. Leave my door unlocked when I’m home alone. Truth: my day-to-day life hasn’t changed at all since MeToo. Now what?

I love this piece from @nuala.bsky.social, really captures the mix of rage and exhaustion so many of us are feeling www.coyotemedia.org/text-me-when...

This week in Bay Area events: Halloween costume workshops! Election info sessions! Speculative sculpture! CUTTLEFISH! www.coyotemedia.org/coyote-calen...

Today: an immigration lawyer on the coming ICE surge in California and how rapid response networks have been key to preserving immigrants' rights. www.coyotemedia.org/ice-arrests-...

let’s go San Francisco

Masked punk trio the Civic Joy Fucks played a ripping first show on Saturday in the TL, complete with singer “Daniel Lurie” asking if anyone wanted to beat up some homeless guys after the show. www.coyotemedia.org/civic-joy-fu...

The trio — who wear creepy masks and claim to be SF politicians & power brokers Daniel Lurie, Chris Larsen, and Manny Yekutiel — stayed in character as they ripped through songs including “We Love Police,” “Cameras Everywhere,” and “Have Some Joy, Motherfuckers.” www.coyotemedia.org/civic-joy-fu...

Last month, an email from SFUSD informed me that my 7yo would be taking a state-mandated test from a company called Amira, and it led me down a rabbit hole. Here's how big tech is infiltrating SF public schools — whether families & teachers want it or not. www.coyotemedia.org/sfusd-ai-ami...

Fun fact: New York City is rolling out pilots to product test AI on high school students, and NO STUDENT WE TALK TO knows anything about it - it's almost like the model also depends on students not finding out. If this is so great, why the cloak of secrecy??

“The old digital divide used to be wanting to make sure everyone had access to tech. But the new digital divide is, who are the families who have the privilege to protect their children *from* tech? … this very much is an equity issue.” www.coyotemedia.org/sfusd-ai-ami...

“The whole model depends on parents not finding out," says ifeoma.bsky.social. "Because as soon as parents are aware, they don’t want anything to do with it.” www.coyotemedia.org/sfusd-ai-ami...

for @coyotemedia.org, i wrote about the insidious creep of big tech into elementary school classrooms www.coyotemedia.org/sfusd-ai-ami...

Woot, woot! And our SF event on October 14 will be at that new space, thanks to @kalwradio.bsky.social. Folks will get to hear from TNC members @soleilho.com of @coyotemedia.org and @daphnem.bsky.social of @newsrelaynetwork.bsky.social Register to attend: www.eventbrite.com/e/from-the-g...

The Valkyries made it to the semis! Here's why this is a win for the gays. www.coyotemedia.org/watch-partie...

What are Bay Area folks most excited about in terms of Halloween events this year? I'm seeing a lot of stuff, and am thinking about what the @coyotemedia.org calendar should include in a couple of weeks!

When KALW executive director James Kass first approached me about potential office space for COYOTE, I was like pffft…yeah right, we WISH. And now, it’s a reality! ✨ So proud of our small and mighty newsroom. We’re dreaming big over here.

@coyotemedia.org is getting an SF office?! 🙀🎉👏🏻Very excited for them and the progress they've made just in their first year.

We’re SO thrilled to share that our COYOTE den has an address! We're moving into Warfield Commons, a new space for independent media makers in Mid-Market SF. Read our Q&A with @kalwradio.bsky.social's James Kass to learn more about the building, and what the move means for COYOTE’s future. ✨
