Wealthy part-time residents are less likely to question where the property taxes are spent—large chunks go to debt service and continual bond issues that are a bonanza for half a dozen charter schools (often agenda-driven) as well as for Santa Fe Community College and its tax-exempt foundation.

“Banking on the Public” reads like a puff piece on behalf of the core group trying to push the state into the banking business. The article fails the tests of journalistic balance, factual exploration and skepticism. For starters, after broad criticism of Wells Fargo, the article says “most of Santa Fe’s money is in Wells Fargo’s vaults.” Well, no. Only about 14 percent of Santa Fe’s invested portfolio of about $240 million is with Wells Fargo, information readily available on the city’s website. The concept of a state public bank is far from “barely known” and “catching steam.” New Mexico explored a state economic development bank eight years ago (HB 290, January 2011). Analysis then by six different state offices found the idea deficient, impractical, risky, or not in comportment with state law. That Santa Fe task force that studied, and rejected, a city public bank did not tell the city to “engage wholeheartedly” toward a state public bank. It suggested that the city, along with state officials, should “investigate” the possibility and move the idea forward “if deemed appropriate.” That has not happened. The article mentions the failed House Memorial Bill requesting a state bank feasibility study, but it ignores the bill’s lengthy fiscal impact report that identifies questionable issues anywhere from problematic to dangerous: political cronyism lending, potential for under-collateralized loans jeopardizing the bank at the expense of taxpayers, and possible start-up costs, just to open the doors, of nearly $150 million, among the many issues. And the article ignores proposals for such state banks elsewhere that are going nowhere, not to mention failure of state banks in Puerto Rico and Delaware. SFR has provided the rose-colored glasses view of a public bank in New Mexico. For facts and balance on the topic, look elsewhere.

“BANKING ON THE PUBLIC”
Why not rationalize the tax code so that all properties get assessed at current market value and tax rates are adjusted so that longtime owners and residents pay no more than currently? Then limit increases of existing taxes to 3% annually, or whatever other number makes sense with respect to inflation rates. Voters can then approve additional taxes if a majority are so inclined. That would be a lot more equitable and fair compared to McQueen’s proposed (and fortunately not passed) shell-game law wherein long-time residents try to sock it to more recent home buyers and owners of vacation homes and rental properties. Laws passed by a majority that selectively penalize a minority do not represent good government practices in my opinion.

SOME PERKS? The tax breaks should probably be reserved for year round residents or, at the least, seniors over 65. That said, don’t discount the value of these second home owners to the economy of Santa Fe. Our primary home is in the Adirondacks of NYS where 50% of the homes are vacation homes used only seasonally. We love it. These folks pay school taxes but do not send their kids to our schools would otherwise necessitate more school buildings and teachers. Their seasonal use keeps the area quiet and residential. They also keep our restaurants full and support the arts scene in our area.

“RETHINKING RECYCLING”
“DUEL BREWING’S EQUIPMENT TO BE AUCTIONED OFF”
SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT I read once (a couple of years ago) that you could put your dirty pizza boxes in your bin. No worries! The grease will just burn off. Now, that’s a no-no. Or maybe I read it wrong. The Eldorado community has a drop off spot (in LaTienda) that has a bin for “cosmetic” containers. So, am I not to put these in my bin? Should I thoroughly wash everything? Just rinse it? (I think it was) the Albuquerque Journal that published something a while ago trying to get folks to recycle as much as possible, encouraging all kinds of small items to go in the bin. But I just read not to put small items in the bin as they won’t sort well. I have been putting little plastic things inside bigger plastic things. Is that bad? I’ve been putting little paper things in bigger paper bags. Bad? Good? Can I put juice box-like stuff in the bin? Like my soy milk containers? I think I can, but now I am not sure. Should I pull the little plastic spout off of it? Jars: Lids on, lids off? Now I hear that we aren’t doing it right at all. China won’t take our stuff cuz its not clean enough. So all this is to suggest that, if you have the time, space, and resources, could we have an article about what is right, and what we are supposed to do?

LEFT: The hangar sure looks spacey enough. RIGHT: A ballroom dance troupe from Las Cruces performs a “space dance.”
Spaceport Festival was Almost Epic Event underwhelms, but backers say industry future is bright
BY L E A H CA N TO R l e a h @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

t takes about five hours to drive from Santa Fe to Spaceport America, the state-owned home base for Virgin Galactic’s commercial space operation. The company promises the average millionaire the opportunity to launch out into Earth’s upper atmosphere just as soon it finishes ironing out the final aesthetic details of space travel. Those details include designing spaceship interiors and Under Armour space suits for guests, a Virgin Galactic public relations rep told SFR at the spaceport’s open house event that kicked off the 2019 Las Cruces Space Festival on April 7. SFR arrived with high hopes but found the event felt half-baked and underwhelming—even if the future of the commercial space industry looks promising. Luckily, the 33-mile trek out into the desert beyond Truth or Consequences felt just thrilling enough to satisfy our appetite for adventure as we traversed past the outer reaches of network service and navigational errors sent us down miles of unmarked dirt roads through the driedup, dusty basin of what was once an ancient ocean, now strewn with scattered sagebrush and the occasional rusty cattle ranch signpost.
The massive curved hull of the space hangar and the domed iron roof of the fire station blend so perfectly into the desert landscape that we might have missed it had it not been for a long line of cars stretching to the guarded entrance of the facility. The architecture and sursur roundings bear such a surreal resemblance to the space hubs of Luke Skywalker’s home planet of Tatooine that SFR almost expected to find R2-D2 zipping across the floor of the hangar, where commercial space crafts will one day be housed and where the event took place. Inside, the vendors sold space merch at booths and tables, and astronauts for Virgin Galactic and NASA held demonstrations explaining space travel. A series of industry experts discussed the future of the commercial space industry onstage, and educational STEM programs showcased small scale robots in a bot competition. Outside, a ballroom dance troupe from Las Cruces led an interactive dance for attendees who showed up from everywhere from Santa Fe to El Paso, and small private planes came and went down the runway— strikingly reflected in the massive mirrored wall of the hanger. A promised rocket launch turned out to be a competition for kids who launched their handmade contraptions next to a parade of special spaceport firetrucks, and the only lifesized space ship—and a model version, at that—stood at the far end of a parking lot near the entrance to the facility.
Virgin Galactic, founded in 2004 by British entrepreneur Richard Branson, initially predicted that its first commercial space flight would launch as early as 2009, but the date has been repeatedly pushed back due to technical difficulties. A pilot error led to a fatal crash in 2014, and the venture finally achieved its first successful flight in December of last year. “Today, for the first time in history, a crewed spaceship built to carry private passengers reached space,” Branson told SpaceNews after the flight in December. Chris Lopez, director of space operations at Spaceport America, tells SFR that
Spaceport America was only open to the public for the one-day open house event, or for private tours.
You are here
Virgin Galactic may only be three or four powered flights away from the first commercial flight, and company spokeswoman Aleanna Crane hints some kind of “important announcement” is coming soon. However, Lopez is also quick to clarify that Virgin Galactic is not the only company using Spaceport America facilities. The spaceport, which was built with about $200 million in taxpayer money, has already accomplished 200 launches and
contracts with nearly a dozen other companies in the industry, including Boeing. While Virgin Galactic has definitely attracted the most attention to the spaceport with its plans to send tourists to space, the most potential for growth lies in science and telecommunication industries, he says. The micro-gravity environment accessible at the outer regions of the atmosphere opens the opportunity for scientific experiments that are not possible on Earth. “Agriculture experiments, medical experiments and other experiments in telecommunications are happening at the spaceport already,” says Lopez. “Because of where commercial space is going, the next economy is going to be space. We as New Mexicans have lost out on opportunities from the semi-conductor world to the software world; let’s not lose the next industry, and this is it.” The first commercial flights seek to take people up to the edge of the atmosphere and then straight back down again in a 90-minute flight. However, Crane says that she sees space travel becoming a viable mode of global transportation from one side of earth to the other. “There’s a lot of discussion happening about other spaceports. … If you think about the future of point-to-point travel, you would need a network of spaceports,” she says. UBS, a multinational investment bank and financial services firm, released a report on March 17 predicting that the space economy will grow 3% to 10% over the next 10 to 15 years, with the potential to become a $805 billion industry by 2030. So while SFR did not get to go up in space this time (and isn’t likely in line for that first coveted press space-junket), and we didn’t get to see a proper rocket launch, perhaps the spaceport will still deliver. Facilities were only open to the public for the weekend, but the Las Cruces Space Festival continues throughout the week, wrapping up on April 13. For more information, visit lcspacefestival.com.

Radio Rehab First responders’ outdated and increasingly malfunctioning radio system is getting an upgrade
BY W I L L CO ST E L LO w i l l @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
S
anta Fe’s fire and police will this year see a shiny new digital system to replace their creaky analog radios, which are 17 years old, reaching the end of their working lives and increasingly at risk of failure. The emergency responders say it’s long past due. A joint effort between the city and Santa Fe County, the project will cost $1.7 million in total. The city’s share of the bill is about $1.2 million, covering a broadcast tower, updates at the dispatch center and radios in each vehicle, as well as on the hips of every first responder. The county will pay just over $500,000 to install radios in its units. Repeaters on the old system, which connect first responders to the radio channels they use to communicate with dispatchers and colleagues, have begun to fail. When that happens, Fire Chief Paul Babcock tells SFR that a central computer kicks in to find a new channel to avoid a delay in response times. It’s still worrisome, he says, and the problem is expected to continue to worsen until the new system is in place. The goal, Babcock says, is to get it up and running by the end of the year, and it’s coming not a moment too soon. The current setup is so outdated that even fixing it can pose a challenge, and Motorola, the
manufacturer, will cease support for the old model entirely at the end of 2020. “If something were to fail and that replacement part is not available, they sometimes have to reach out to eBay and stuff to try to find these parts because the support’s not there any longer,” he says. Motorola is also the vendor selling the new system. If the new project weren’t met with the approval of City Council, according to a city memo, every first responder in the city would end up using the backup system, which has only one channel. Even before Motorola ceases support for the system, radios that old can pose a risk of failure at inopportune times, Babcock tells SFR, potentially resulting in dispatchers being unable to reach units at the station to alert them to calls. Another concern among firefighters is that, after being dispatched to a scene, radios could fail and communication could be cut off. Such miscommunications can put responders or citizens in danger should critical information about the situation, like a hostile resident or one with a medical issue, go unheard. Assistant Fire Chief Carlos Nava tells SFR that after the unit is dispatched, more work is happening in the background as the fire engine or ambulance is speeding its way to the scene, and good radios are a necessity for passing new information along. “Prior to us getting there, they can call us
NEWS
and say, ‘Hey guys, heads up, why don’t you guys hold back a little bit—there’s a hazard warning at this house. Something’s happened in the past, let’s make sure everything’s safe.’” Nava adds that, because law enforcement uses the same system that the fire department does, they can quickly communicate with each other and dispatch to determine if someone in a situation requiring fire or emergency medical response has an outstanding arrest warrant and respond appropriately. “We’re putting our firefighters in a big danger if we don’t have a top-of-theline updated system,” Babcock says. He told a story from 2001, during his field days, to emphasize the point. “A partner of mine and myself were in a building, a residential structure, and the roof collapsed on us, snapped my leg, -Paul Babcock, and my partner firefighter had to call out fire chief a mayday,” Babcock says. “Without the communication of that mayday that my partner was able to call out, I would have been trapped under debris, in a burning building, underwater, with no way to rere move myself. Without that communicommuni cation, all this ends.” The chief also points out that while $1.7 million might seem high, estimates for the new system were initially as lofty as $10 million, but were brought lower in part by negotiation and a state pric pricing agreement. In addition, while the tower that will transmit the signal is jurisunder the city’s juris diction, and therefore on its bill, the rest of the costs will be split down the mid middle with Santa Fe County. The city’s portion is set to come out of the gross receipts tax bond, a 2018 mea measure intended to fund various infrainfra structure projects across the city. Departments such as transit and parks and recreation will be able to use the new system, too, but the fast re response and clear com communication by emer emergency services is the main goal, according to the Fire Department. “We’re very excited N LLE about this, the project O B ENS ST E V ANSON is way overdue,” Babcock says.
We’re putting our firefighters in a big danger if we don’t have a topof-the-line updated system.

alking to kids about climate change can feel daunting. How do you explain that, if consensus among the scientific community is correct, humans may soon be responsible for triggering the most devastating ecological collapse since the demise of the dinosaurs? To some parents this might hardly seem like an appropriate topic for PG dinnertable conversations, and at the surface it seems reasonable for adults to worry that
discussing climate change might cause kids anxiety. Yet even as adults continue to grapple with the issue—some speaking out and others denying it—children across the globe have become the leading voices demanding we give the issue of climate change our full attention. After all, it is their future at stake. The latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report published by the United Nations in December 2018 predicts people only have 12 years to reign in carbon emissions before the effects of climate change spiral out of human control. On March 15, an estimated 1.4 million students took to the streets in
2,000 cities around the world in a Global Climate Strike to demand leaders take immediate action. In Santa Fe, youth gathered at the Roundhouse on one of the last days of the Legislative session to get the attention of local politicians. The message is clear: Kids want us to engage. “We just want adults to listen to us!” Sierra Woosley, 9, tells SFR through an interpreter in the library of the New Mexico School for the Deaf. “People are destroying the environment and they think it’s okay, but it’s not. We are part of nature and if we destroy nature, we will destroy ourselves. Grown-ups need to believe us, because kids have been doing research and finding facts about things that grown-ups don’t realize yet, or maybe just don’t want to realize. Kids should be able to grow up and have jobs and good lives and a good future. We don’t want other kids to lose hope. And so, we need the adults to help us take care of the world.” Sierra is a leading member of the Global WE, an after-school program formerly known as the Global Warming Express, where students learn about the science and facts behind climate change and how to implement solutions in their schools and local communities. At the climate strike in March, Sierra told the
crowd that she is deaf-blind and has a brain tumor, but that these disabilities have taught her lessons in facing difficulty and discomfort which she hopes to share with other kids. “Be strong and resilient. Learn the facts. But don’t let them scare you too much,” she said. If anyone knows the meaning of resilience, it’s Sierra, and mental health experts say that’s a key concept for youth dealing with climate change. Marilyn Price-Mitchell, a child psychologist and author of Tomorrow’s Change Makers: Reclaiming the Power of Citizenship for a New Generation, defines resilience as “the capacity to grow from adversity. … When we support and encourage them as they take risks, overcome challenges and grow from failure, successful kids learn to bounce back from life’s ups and downs.” Elizabeth Haase, a practicing psychiatrist in Nevada and producer of a film about the psychological impact of climate change on kids, says trying to protect children by not talking to them about the issue may actually do more harm than good. “Kids are not fools,” she tells SFR by phone. “They have a pretty good nose for deceit, and obviously this is all over the news. They’re going to find out about it somehow, and if it’s through the doom and gloom of the internet or through the misinformation of their peers, they are much more likely to feel afraid if they sense that it is not something you are willing to talk about.” Haase tells SFR recent studies found 70% of Americans feel significant anxiety about climate change, but only 20% ever talk about it. This can leave kids with the understanding that it is something they should be afraid of, but their fear should be hidden—a strategy that easily leads to apathy, hopelessness or denial in people of all ages. Genie Stevens, a local parent who founded the group now known as Global WE, tells SFR “our social norms have been that, as a worldwide culture, we don’t speak up very much. We tend to go with the status quo and imagine that other people know more than us and are more in charge. And I think that has got to change now. Resilience is going to be paramount, and it is going to be a new conversation for us. So when we are working with the kids, that is going to be our leading edge—how to use your voice and how to engage with others to create resilience.” The consensus, it seems, is that we need to start talking to our kids; the question is how to do it in a way that inspires agency and hope. Santa Fe educators who regularly teach kids about sustainability and climate change already have an approach. They

say when speaking with younger kids, localizing the problem and providing opportunities for action are most important. Localize and take action “Education needs to happen through action and civic engagement,” says Stevens. “You have to take baby steps. Present them with information on the problem, the basic science that explains it, and then go immediately into solutions. Kids need to know that their voices matter now and will matter even more as they get older. But without the support of adults, it’s just kids against the world. Our role as adults is to help them figure out what actions they want to take in their own communities and support them in making that happen.” CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

The Global WE program grew out of Stevens’ own daughter Marina’s questions about the changing climate and her determination to do something about it. When she was 6, Marina became inconsolable upon learning about the plight of penguins facing extinction due to melting ice caps. The little girl began writing letters to President Barack Obama. As she got older, she told her mother she wanted to write a book to educate other kids and started a group at her school to get more students involved. The program, which began at Acequia Madre Elementary School, has seen some remarkable successes. Thanks to funding and staff from the Sierra Club, it has expanded to a handful of schools across the state. At Acequia Madre, students successfully lobbied to remove plastic water bottle vending machines, won funding and city support to solarize the school, and helped successfully lobby the city of Santa Fe to ban plastic bags. Wild Friends is another program that helps kids become civically engaged in the policy side of environmental issues. The program, which is based out of the UNM School of Law, creates a curriculum used by teachers in public school classrooms across the state to teach a topic students choose by casting a ballot, and help students draft a policy they present at the state Legislature. Director Susan George tells SFR its approach is about finding an issue that could garner bipartisan support and could have a direct impact in children’s communities. This year, students successfully promoted legislation to create a special license plate, the proceeds of which will go to New Mexico Department of Transportation projects to establish pollinating plants along roadways. Ed Gorman, who participates in the Wild Friends program with his fifth-grade dual language class at El Camino Real Middle Academy in Santa Fe, tells SFR his students recently completed a project on climate change to decide for themselves if they believe the science. Some kids in his class tells SFR that they have felt afraid for as long as they can remember. “The world is dying, it could end in our lifetimes,” says Kai Hamilton. Rurabi Cerda adds, “If I die with my family, that would be okay, but I feel really scared sometimes that a fire or storm will come and we would die separate.” “When I feel scared,” says Antonio Almuina, “it makes me feel better to do something to help the animals, like we did with the license plate—” and Genesis Lopez interjects, “God wants us to save them, because the animals are His children, too.”
Gorman says most of his students come from low-income backgrounds and speak English as a second language. He tells SFR the fact that these kids face so many challenges in their personal lives makes their participation in policy engagement that much more powerful. “You should have seen them talking to the legislators and realizing that their voice matters and that they have power to affect the system,” he says. Todd Stiewing, the principal of the Santa Fe School for the Arts and Sciences, tells SFR that climate change is integrated into the project-based experiential learning curriculum at the private school. “We try to give the kids a piece they can have success with so they learn that there is something they can do, and so they know how to go out and find skills to be able to do it,” he says. The school’s fifth- and sixth-grade teacher, Matt Newsum, teaches a project in which students measure the environmental impacts of their personal choices and the food they eat, and the school keeps a beehive to teach kids about pollinators. In the garden, the youngest students learn about the plants that provide food for the bees. Building momentum for a movement Price-Mitchell, the psychologist, tells SFR the anger and betrayal expressed by youth at the climate strikes across the world are signs “climate change has begun to have a significant psychological impact on children.” She says anger is actually a healthy response to the crisis, especially when channeled into civic action. “I worry more about the mental health of children who feel numb and helpless,” she says. “These children are more prone to hold their feelings inside and are at risk of depression and anxiety in their teen years.” Yet just because a kid learns about the destruction of the environment at an early age and engages in youth activism does not guarantee that the natural turbulence of adolescence won’t be exacerbated by feelings of anxiety and depression about climate change. Marina Stevens, whose tenacity and curiosity got the Global WE off the ground, is now 16. Chatting with SFR in a local coffee shop, she says it’s been a few years since she’s been involved in climate activism. She confides that her hiatus is partly due to a sense of dismay and frustration at realizing nearly a decade had gone by since she was a child writing letters to Obama, and despite all of the things she and her friends managed to accomplish in Santa Fe, very little has improved at a federal or global scale and the climate crisis has only gotten worse. But Marina also says participating in

the climate strike has inspired her to reengage with climate action, and she is ready to dive back into the cause. As kids become teenagers, they become much more capable of understanding the full complexity and scope of the problem, writes Elizabeth Allured, a member of the Climate Psychology Alliance. She tells SFR by email that as teens go through adolescence, they are much more likely to feel betrayed and distrust adults. Adults cannot help teens through this distress, she says, unless their words are backed up by actions that show they are also concerned and also trying to do something. “Honestly, I feel heartbroken,” says Santa Fe Waldorf School senior Hannah Laga-Abram, an 18-year-old activist who worked with students at seven other high schools to organize Santa Fe’s youth Climate Strike. She describes her feelings of anguish about the destruction of plant and animal life on earth, and her fury toward a system in which the few get rich at the expense of the young. “I feel so much grief that we as a society are not really willing to change course,” she says, “and I’m just heartbroken that so many folks are too stuck in their everyday lives to notice what is being lost.”
If I die with my family, that would be okay, but I feel really scared sometimes that a fire or storm will come and we would die separate. -Rurabi Cerda, fifth grade
Psychiatrist Haase tells SFR the existential threat of climate change has thrown the disciplines of psychiatry and psychology into uncharted waters. Until recently, she says the role of the therapist has been to manage, reduce and dispel the anxieties of the patient. But that strategy doesn’t work the same way when the problem is the very real and ever-present threat of self-inflicted global ecological collapse. The anxiety this causes puts us in a “state of disavowal,” which, as Haase explains is “when you are aware of knowing something but acting as if it is not true. So you are essentially always in a state of inauthenticity and lying to yourself and feeling the stress of doing that.” Anyone who believes that climate change presents an immediate threat but continues to participate in activities such as driving cars and eating meat is likely to experience some degree of disavowal. Haase tells SFR, “This is actually not a place where we want to reduce fear; it’s more like the building is burning, you don’t want to stop feeling worried about that, and effective action is really the only way out. And so, helping people identify that as a strategy is really really important, along with self-soothing techniques and mindfulness.” Hannah is a teen mentor to elementary school kids in today’s Global WE, and she says despite sometimes feeling despair over the big picture, she still believes what the kids accomplish matters. “Those little moments that I think change the conversation within a small community—that’s where you get hope, and that’s where real change can come from, because people are connecting and people are conversing,” she says. Any hope to cap carbon emissions at the levels called for in the IPCC report will take a massive shift in energy policies at a global scale. Without these international policy initiatives, actions taken at the scale of the individual will be virtually meaningless. Yet only an uprising of individuals taking action is likely to catalyze large-scale change. The youth climate strikes are an example. They didn’t simply happen out of nowhere; all over the world, youth have been working hard for a long time to push the issue into the spotlight. In the US, the Sunrise Movement led by young people has brought climate change to the attention of the nation, and inspired US Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ed Markey to introduce the Green New Deal in Congress. In this global and national context, the climate strikes served as a single unifying moment in which young people were able to connect, lift each CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

other up, revitalize their efforts and inspire new avenues for action. While Santa Fe students didn’t have to leave class without permission to gather for the strike, the gathering spurred other action. Seventh-grade students at the Santa Fe School of Arts and Sciences approached their history teacher Geetha Holdsworth with renewed concerns about climate change, and so she organized a debate unit examining its geo-political consequences. One student, Merrick Word-Brown, tells SFR he is looking into how the Citizens United decision has allowed oil money to influence decisions made by Congress. Two other students, Isa Clark and Helena Merlino, are investigating the role of oil and gas money in funding public education. In 2018, the New Mexico Legislature passed a memorial calling for a study of the effects of carbon pricing, written and introduced by a student group from Santa Fe Prep. This year, the high school students drafted a bill that would have established a carbon pricing plan. Though the bill stalled in committee, Tabatha Hirsch, one of the students involved in the group, tells SFR the students plan to get it reintroduced next year. The strike event allowed them to network with students from other parts of the state. “We want to reach out across New Mexico to other students who are interested in climate action,” she says. Tabatha, who was part of the Go Green Club at Wood Gormley Elementary, says her involvement in climate action as a child has made her a more effective activist as a teenager. She says many of her friends who didn’t start young are not engaged in activism today. “I see a lot of my friends who didn’t do Go Green Club when they were little being equally or more afraid of climate change, but in a distant way where it’s like, ‘It’s gonna happen and there’s nothing we can do.’ Whereas a lot of my friends who started young, it’s not even a question whether they’re going to continue,” she says. She adds, “It’s important to have fear and concern to be driven to action, but if we don’t think that any solution is possible, then I don’t
believe that anything can really change … I think that I maintain my hope because for me, there’s no other option.” Hannah says what angers her most is adults who tell her the youth give them hope, but are unwilling to take personal action. To those adults, she says, “You’re here too, you can do something too. I’m glad that I give you hope, but give me a reason to tell you the same thing.” Yet Hannah also recognizes how many people old and young might feel isolated and helpless in the face of such a huge problem. For these people, too, the teen has words of encouragement:
It’s important to have fear and concern to be driven to action, but if we don’t think that any solution is possible, then I don’t believe that anything can really change … -Tabatha Hirsch, 11th grade
“Your feelings are valid,” she says. “Go outside and remind yourself of how beautiful and wild and magical and crazy this universe is, and then start talking and asking people questions and bringing up the uncomfortable conversation, and you might be surprised at what you find. … I think that more people are experiencing these things than are willing to admit it. But once you start talking to people and start forming networks, you will start feeling the support that is out there. And then together, we can move towards action.”

A Questeño angler is searching for the state’s biggest fish, but it’s the Rio Grande that has him hooked
BY ELIZABETH MILLER e l i z a b e t h @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

hen Christopher Michael talks about the Rio Grande, it’s easy to see it the way he sees it—which is magical. The sun is high enough over the canyon walls to have started to bake, even on this late March day, and he’s set his fishing rod aside for a few minutes. The runoff is high and the fish disinterested. But when he talks about the river, he paints it in all the seasons and shades he’s seen it. It’s easy to imagine it glowing blue at dusk with caddis flies skidding across its surface, or dappled golden at dawn, or running darkly through a snow-covered desert. And it’s easy to imagine him casting his line over the water, his fly targeted for the deepest thread of current or the still pocket of an eddy, waiting for that moment he says matters most: Not when the fish closes its mouth around the fly, but the moment it looks up and recognizes there’s a human on the end of the line. That, he says, is when the real fight begins. Michael grew up around the Taos Pueblo and his grandfather taught him to fish when he was the youngest of the cousins and dropped off the back of the pack.
Fishing guide Christopher Michael releases Rio Grande cutthroat trout, part of an effort to restore the native fish.
“He taught me one simple knot, a little twist knot, and away we went,” Michael recalls. After high school, he moved to Arizona. He had a job and a wife, but he missed the Rio Grande, so he came back. “It’s a gem,” he says. “It’s like the Grand Canyon—there’s only one.” He can get from his house in Questa to the river in half an hour, and he’s there four or five days a week. Even when it’s muddy. Even when it’s snowing. Even when that means walking out the back door as his wife walks in the front, handing care of their two kids over to her. Even
when his friends are late or flake entirely. Even after dark, when the river is moonlit and the 2-foot-long brown trout more likely to bite. “Most of the time, I’m fishing by myself,” he says. “I’m down here and the lightning bugs are firing off over the water—and it’s such a waste that I’m the only one.” Michael was out for the Questa Cutthroat Festival, a gathering of fish aficionados where volunteers can hike down the steep trails of the Rio Grande Del Norte National Monument carrying bags filled with native cutthroat trout finger-
lings. The New Mexico Game and Fish Department supplies the trout as part of an effort to restore the state fish to more of its traditional waterways. The trout is a brilliantly patterned fish, golden with brown speckles and a red cheek. A handful of volunteers also carry a fishing rod down, as Michael does, and he casts into an eddy in hopes of clearing out the bigger fish to make space for the newcomers. The Rio Grande cutthroat trout has seen its habitat depleted by wildfires and drought and crowded by nonnative fish. Its numbers have plummeted, and the state reports it occupies just 12% of its historic range. “This is their home, and it’s kind of our fault they’re not here,” Michael says. So if he reels in an invasive species, pike, or a brown or a brook trout, he doesn’t put it back. The hope is to make a little more room and leave a little more food for the native species. After years, he says, he thinks he sees that gesture making a difference in the river. Michael is just a few years into running a guiding outfit, Rio Grande Del Norte Outfitters, bringing people here and into other lakes and streams around Northern New Mexico. It’s not the pleasure cruise some guided tours can be. He’ll pack a lunch for guests, but they have to handle the hike for themselves. He’s not shy about that and what they’re really after. “We’re chasing trophies,” he declares. “It’s cool to catch fish, but we’re chasing monsters.” He’s aiming for state records this year. That he knows where to look for those fish, and how to draw them in even when they’re reluctant, is part of what his many days on the river have taught him. Still, he says, every time he goes, he learns something. At other fishing spots, he’d go “pound it,” but to him, the Rio Grande is sacred. “This place—you’ll never forget this place,” he says. “Here, we can be a part of the last frontier.”

WORKSHOP SUN/14
Beyond Buzzwords Coaching workshop goes from woo to workforce Gieo Pensoneault says a lot of nice words when talking about his upcoming workshop, The Art of Self-Reinvention, which offers a quick ‘n’ dirty primer on how to harness your own passions and talents to live your best life. “It starts by creating a vision for your life and what you want to create,” he tells SFR. “Sometimes it’s a whole new life experience, sometimes it’s to up-level their career. … Then we integrate these tools of story, movement and ritual-making to give people the tools to re-pattern their lives and their mind.” But all that sounds kind of woo-woo, right? Perhaps. Pensoneault admits the esoteric ideas might turn some folks off, particularly those new to this kind of self-reflection, so he breaks it down to how it happens in real life. “A lot of my tools come from neuroscience, specifically from neurolinguistic programming,” he says. “I blend together storytelling and movement and myth creation into a container and an experience that people can have when they are excited about reinventing themselves.” Pensoneault, who has studied under a number of renowned life and career
coaches (including some of Tony Robbins’ very first classes in the late 1980s, and it doesn’t get much more renowned than that), also says, “There are certain times of the year where it’s just really natural to do this work, and it’s observable that spring is a time of renewal and rebirth and reinvention. It’s an inspiring time to do the work.” And, beyond woo, this self-help work is actually applicable to the real world, as Pensoneault knows from experience. “I come from an entrepreneurial family,” he says. “A lot of what I help people to do is to take their natural gifts and redirect their life toward creating their stream of income in a way that is really enjoyable. … I actually worked in a different career field for 25 years as a landscape architect, and still do some of that work—but the center point is always based on work that I just love to do. So I pass that along and help other people see how to do that.” (Charlotte Jusinski) THE ART OF SELF RE-INVENTION 2-4:30 pm Sunday April 14. $10-$37.

Santa Fe music shops get a boost from Record Store Day
George Casey posing with one of the exciting Record Store Day releases—Frank Black’s Teenager of the Year on vinyl.
BY LUKE HENLEY a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
S
ince 2008, when vinyl music releases sometimes barely took up space in the corner of any music retailer, the international event known as Record Store Day has become one of the catalysts for inspiring vinyl consumption worldwide. Working in one such music retail store during that inaugural year, I saw firsthand the increase in vinyl sales—the throwaway bargain bins were replaced with prime retail real estate as higher-ticket items sold almost as quickly as they were priced. Since then, it’s only grown.
The concept is simple: Record Store Day offers the ultimate FOMO experience for music-heads with exclusive releases specifically for that day. Big names, hidden gems, weird gimmicks—anything to create something unique that people could grab on one day only, first-come, first-served. It has brought customers into independent music stores, even if just for a day or two out of the year, and a second RSD each year occurs on Black Friday, helping to place vinyl and physical retailers back on the map for everyday consumers. Lost Padre Records (304 Catron St., 310-6389) owner George Casey is celebrating his first-ever Record Store
Visit Us at 1330 Rufina Circle Mon.-Sat. 10-6 P: 505.231.7775 Ask about Our Valentines Specials!
Day as a retailer this April with an allday party featuring live DJ music. Having spent years as a collector and buyer, Casey is no stranger to the door-buster adrenaline of Record Store Day on the consumer side, although he says he was never interested in lining up before the stores opened like some of the more zealous shoppers. This year, he says Lost Padre is stocking several of the official RSD exclusives, including everything from sludge giants High On Fire’s Bat Salad EP to a vinyl release of the Breaking Bad soundtrack. Other releases include an album related to Wayne Coyne’s “King’s Mouth” art installation that recently occupied the lobby of Meow Wolf’s House of Eternal Return, and several coveted (for Deadheads, anyway) live Grateful Dead releases that have not yet been released on vinyl. But buyer beware: Some of Record Store Day’s appeal lies in the artificial scarcity of its items alongside the more eclectic nature of some of the releases. This can cut both ways, of course, and Casey has smartly avoided some of the pitfalls of the more bizarre “what were they thinking?” releases. One such item included on the massive official Record Store Day list is a two-LP set of the soundtrack to the 1997 teen horror flick I Know What You Did Last Summer. Not exactly a must-have. Casey also ended up not being able to get Jack White’s Third Man Records’ latest RSD gimmick, sets of 3-inch records that require a specific Crosley brand turntable to play. Third Man Records always has some sort of offbeat release for the big day, and while the intentions to elevate the medium are good, they often feel unnecessary. “It borderline makes me angry with its wastefulness,” Casey says. “It’s for people who collect figures in a box and have them up on their walls. It will sit there for the rest of time and then be in a landfill until the star collapses.”

This cuts to the duality of RSD in that there is a strange consumer panic imbued into its spirit: the notion that if you aren’t fast enough or don’t have enough disposable income, you’re going to lose the opportunity to buy something you might genuinely really like. And a lot of the releases are truly non-essential, only destined to sell because it’s being dangled in front of people. But for truly independent labors of love, such as Lost Padre, The Guy in the Groove’s Dick Rosemont has also been a longtime participant in Record Store Day. He’ll be selling exclusive titles and spinning records all day at the audio visual store A Sound Look (502 Cerrillos Road, 983-5509). Also, with Ken Kordich’s The Good Stuff (401 W San Francisco St., 795-1939), a registered Record Store Day retailer for the last seven years, there is still plenty of reason to celebrate. “It’s a fun day,” Kordich says. “The customers are excited, and it’s probably my busiest day of the year.” “It reminds people that there are still physical stores in the world, which some people do need to be reminded of,” Casey adds. “What [Record Store Day] did was force me to focus on something and get psyched on it because it had a deadline. For me, it brought some attention to cool stuff that I might have missed otherwise.” While some of the questionable and more gimmicky releases are sometimes nauseating, Santa Fe ultimately has so few options to see what the hype is about and spend dollars on music that will actually impact local business and artists. So buy something, huh?

In a nutshell, how would you describe your work? I’m kind of a newly myself artist. I’ve been doing freelance for a couple years since moving to Santa Fe. I started making drawings and watercolors and selling them. I feel like I have a very unique style. I’d describe it as natural and illustrative. Part of it is abstraction, but you can identify different shapes and scenes of the world. It’s illustrative and tells a story. I’m curious how others might categorize it. I was in touch with [Niomi Fawn], a curator in Santa Fe ... They got in touch with me for doing a solo show this spring. They work with the ART.i.factory; that gallery is nice for an artist like me starting off. I don’t feel intimidated to make a large body of work. Why do you use watercolors? I really like watercolor because it’s not very forgiving and does whatever it wants. I find it really interesting working with that unplanned medium and finding ways to work with mistakes. Working with the challenges that it brings is fascinating and curious. I find I can be more playful with this medium. What do you take inspiration from? The biggest inspiration for me is the positive effects art has on my experiences dealing with anxiety and depression. I find it that watercolors balance me and creates a sense of calm that I need in my life. I can clear my head and explore. ... [My work] brings life to the mountains as our neighbors and friends, as lame as that may sound. New Mexico is energizing, in that regard.

Santa Fe Zine Fest ramps up for its third year
BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
S
anta Fe writer Bucket Siler has developed an elevator pitch for explaining zines to the uninitiated. “I’ve often stumbled through a convoluted essay,” she says, “but I’ve pretty much landed on, ‘They’re handmade publications.’” In simplest terms, a zine (pronounced “zeen,” like the end of the word “magazine,” no matter how badly people want to say “zyne”) is a small-run, self-published collection of words, photos, illustrations, etc., most often crafted by hand and exploring any topic its creator wishes. In the heyday of the ’80s and ’90s, zines covered anything from poetry and punk rock to queer issues, comics, short-form fiction and nonfiction, critique, arts reviews … the list goes on. And though the art form has faded to a degree parallel to the rise of the internet, there’s a strong contingent still focused on creating them in just as many subjects. Siler is one such person, having published the dark fairy tale zine Pigtail Girls with Santa Fe illustrator Lindsay Payton in late 2017, among other works. She is also the organizer of the upcoming annual Zine Fest event at the Center for Contemporary Arts, which hits its third year this week. “I just kind of wanted to test the waters,” Siler says of the festival’s founding. “I’ve been making zines since I moved to
Zines are cool.
“When it comes down to it and there’s one table left, I’m going to give it to somebody who lives in Española rather than somebody who lives in Chicago,” she says. “Not everyone can afford to travel to a zine festival, and the person who lives here, it might be their only chance to show their work—whereas someone who is applying to festivals all over the country clearly has the funds and mobility to make the trip across the country for something that is, frankly, not very profitable.” She’s carried that ethos into the festival’s third year. Along with making mention of a $5,000 grant from Meow Wolf, Siler says all exhibitors are from New Mexico. “People make connections, learn about other artists, collaborate with them,” she says. “If you have a whole bunch of people from elsewhere, I don’t think those connections are as valuable.” “For me, the most exciting thing is that it’s local,” says exhibitor/writer/artist Jacks McNamara, a 15-year vet of the zine scene. McNamara participated in the first Zine Fest, but took off last year due to COURTESY CENTER FOR CONTEMPORARY ARTS
Words & Pictures
New Mexico in 2006, and while I knew a few other people who did, I didn’t really know about anything that was organized [in Santa Fe]; you couldn’t buy zines in a bookstore, for example.” Siler’s first forays into organized zine exhibition were with local arts cohort Strangers Collective. She’d seen the group display zines at gallery shows during its early days, and eventually partnered with Strangers co-founder Kyle Farrell for the first Santa Fe Zine Fest in 2016 at the CCA, where Farrell worked at the time. Siler says the 20 exhibitors that first year drew roughly 200 attendees. “There’s been a real resurgence in terms of a new generation of people—who aren’t really a print generation—becoming interested in zines,” she says. For the second iteration in 2018, Siler was the recipient of a $5,000 Fulcrum Fund grant, and she grew the event incrementally. Exhibitors moved into a bigger space in the CCA’s Tank Garage gallery and submissions from out of town came in higher numbers, though Siler says she prioritized local zine creators.

pregnancy. For the upcoming iteration, they’ll show previous works like Magical Creatures along with a new creation authored in conjunction with their wife, collage artist Katy Medley. Titled Animals, the zine explores McNamara and Medley’s journey to parenthood and the events that arise after having a baby. “There’s a tremendous amount of freedom in the genre,” McNamara says. “It’s so inherently DIY and you don’t have to please everyone.” For exhibitor Oriana Lee, that freedom has been liberating. She’s a newcomer to the zine world, but with her first-ever effort Queer and Questioning, the former journalist has been able to string together multiple artistic disciplines—another long-sought first in her artistic career. “Every step has been a labor of love,” Lee tells SFR, noting that her handmade zine is constructed with 100 percent recycled materials. “I guess I would describe it as my queer experience, and how I’ve been inspired as an artist. It’s … inspired by [the poet] Nikki Giovanni—most people are unfamiliar, but once you start digging into her work, it’s very deep.” Lee says she’s become completely obsessed with zines, both creating and consuming. “When I’ve imagined myself writing books in the past, this is the vision I had, but I never had a model,” she posits. “It’s a wild collection, kind of like hip-hop meets art.” Siler, meanwhile, says she’s added Zine Fest branded tote bags and the food truck El Sabor Spanish Tapas Y Másss to the festivities, and that she’ll continue to organize the festival as long as she’s able. “Every year I try to add a little something new,” she says. “I’m just kind of taking it year by year.” SANTA FE ZINE FEST Noon-5 pm Saturday April 13.

L’Olivier “Isn’t there some little tool they give you?” I asked. “Yes, like, a little fork…?” mused my companion, unsure. Of course, we’re talking about the escargots. You have to pull them out of the shells. But how? We aren’t French. We aren’t born knowing these things. Praise be, then, for a place like L’Olivier, which serves the snails ready to stab and eat, like little clams swimming in a bath of garlic butter, ham and almonds ($15). The tender bugs were the perfect entry point into a fine but Santa Fe-casual French meal, the likes of which can’t really be found elsewhere in town; a special of swordfish over black rice with thyme beurre blanc ($36) and Colorado elk with sweet potato puree, snow peas and poached pear ($39) may be done by other chefs, but not quite as beautifully as here. A duck breast with raspberry sauce ($32) and honey-glazed roasted squash with polenta ($25) were also hard to pass up. If the prices spook you, never fear: L’Olivier’s much-crowed-about prix fixe on Tuesday and Wednesday nights boasts incredible options for $39 a head for three courses. And relax—you don’t even have to bring your fancy fork. (Charlotte Jusinski)
Love Yourself Café From the moment you walk into the Love Yourself Café, you’re in for a surprising treat. The ceilings are high, there’s plenty of natural light, and the walls have a peaceful golden hue. You’ll be presented with a small glass of “love water,” which is a light green blend of coconut water, cucumber, apple juice, silica and cell food. The seasonal menu has plenty of vegan options, but always features warm elixirs that are loaded with good-for-yourbody-and-mind ingredients. The namesake Love Yourself smoothie ($15) has an earthy, slightly chocolatey taste that you can sweeten if you desire. If you’re not down for the elixir experience, this is one place where you’ll probably feel better after taking shots. Juices and probiotics are offered in 2.5-ounce shots or 8-ounce “shooters” ($4-$9). The wide-ranging menu runs from superfood oatmeal ($10.50) to more adventurous caprese eggs Benedict ($14) at breakfast. Lunch and dinner include pizza options, ethnic bowl combinations and a satisfying spaghetti squash ($15) that’s served heaping with fresh tomato basil sauce and quinoa “meatballs.” Dessert features cakes and breads that are baked in-house and range from the sweet to the savory. Dig in— you’ll love yourself for trying it. (Matt Grubs)
Iconik Coffee Roasters Ironically enough, while the coffee at Iconik is notoriously some of the most expensive in town ($2.75 per 10 ounces for drip?!), the food feels way fancier than the prices would suggest. The menu inspires gasps: Grilled cheese made with Brie, jack and berry compote, plus a side salad with housemade vinaigrette for $8.75? A generously portioned, slightly spicy kale-kohlrabi salad with puffed rice and fish sauce for $8? Local lamb sliders with tzatziki for $9.50? What incredible culinary fever dream is this? We aren’t sure. Get a creamy horchata latte ($5.25) to ponder the utopia in which you’ve landed. (The coffee may be pricey, yes, but we never said it wasn’t perhaps also the best.) Chase it with a mouthwatering gluten-free chocolate-banana tea cake with thick cream cheese icing for $3.95. The coffee shop, which originated at its Midtown location, expanded to handle the coffee bar at Collected Works Bookstore downtown and an off-thebeaten-Plaza-path location at 314 S Guadalupe St.— and, unlike some other companies, this is one coffee empire we’d be happy to see weave its way through the very fabric of our city.

for Thought Raaga-Go and the complexities of (liking) Indian cuisine BY ZIBBY WILDER |
a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
ZIBBY WILDER
really love to Google random questions. It’s fun because you always get an interesting array of answers, and usually not ones you expect. You also find out you’re usually not “the only one.” In this instance, I was apparently not the only one wondering, “Why don’t I like Indian food?” In general, Indian cuisine just doesn’t agree with me. It’s not that I don’t like it and, from the various threads fraying from my Google search, what I gathered was that a lot of people want to like it. But for delicate palates (or digestive systems), the spices, oils and textures are a bit too shocking to the system. Another common complaint was that it’s just too hot. Girl, please! Obviously none of those comments came from New Mexicans. But it makes me wonder, sort of like white wine, if Indian food is a thing people say they don’t like, but the more they try, the more likely they are to find something they do like— and something that likes them back. Indian food, in all its different styles, does have its legions of adoring fans. Not just curry (which is popular in many regional ethnic cuisines from the Middle East to Africa to Asia), Indian is one of the most labor-intensive cuisines in the world. Many moon over its fiery vindaloo, creamy dhal, the earthy smokiness imparted from a tandoor and the richness of ingredient combinations such as ancho chile, pomegranate and ginger. Indeed, yogurt, cayenne, garam masala, coriander, cumin, turmeric, fenugreek and sweet raisins make frequent appearances in Indian cooking. Combinations of these flavors can inspire love at first bite or, for some, maybe a little more “getting to know you” time. I decided to reacquaint myself with Indian cuisine thanks to chef Pramod “Paddy” Rawal’s recent reincarnation of his beloved former Agua Fría Street restaurant, Raaga-Go (410 Old Santa Fe Trail, 983-5555). After closing in September 2017 for health reasons (because that’s what running a restaurant, writing cookbooks and making TV appearances all at the same time will do to you), Rawal couldn’t stay out of the kitchen, and now operates the restaurant as a lunch and dinner takeaway in a space beside Rio Chama Steakhouse. What a treat it was to place my order online. It was so convenient to run down the list of dishes, read the ingredients and then be offered a choice of
Eggroll, shrimp, eggplant, dal tadka. Oh. Em. Gee.
FOOD
large or small, as well as level of spiciness (from “mild” to “hell”). I chose mild. Once my order was complete I was asked what time I wanted to pick it up and when I showed up to do so, was greeted with a booming “Hello!” from chef Paddy himself. Keeping in mind my tummy’s aversion to certain spices, I tried to order a little of everything I hoped would sit well. The yellow dal tadka ($6 for the small) made of lentils with turmeric, ginger, garlic and cumin is sort of starter dish for folks new to the cuisine. It’s creamy, savory and goes well with rice, naan or straight on its own. This one was spot-on and a little on the tangy side, which was nice. The bagare baingan ($7 for a small) is a baby eggplant snuggled in a swaddle of sauce made from mustard, peanut and coconut. I am not a big fan of the texture of eggplant, but I was very happy to have ordered this. I am sure the eggplant was delicious, but every bite I took was 10 percent eggplant, 90 percent sauce—and the sauce was everything: rich, refreshing, irresistible. Wanting to try something I couldn’t mask and from the oven, I also opted for the jumbo shrimp nissa ($18). These came brilliantly cooked on a bed of fragrant rice, and the sweet meat had a zesty bite courtesy of generous amounts of lemon. As I worked my way down the menu I noted, interestingly, a section of fairly standard Thai noodle dishes. I can never pass up noodles, so I threw in an order of pad thai with tofu ($14). Sadly, everything that can go wrong with “to go” went wrong here. It all started with an excess of sauce, and by the time I got it home, sticky tamarind sauce had slithered its way onto everything in the bag. Inside its carton, the sauce had steamed its sweetness through each ingredient, the noodles, the tofu, the bean sprouts and even the peanuts. Everything tasted of tamarind, taking the rich peanut flavor and refreshing crunch of bean sprouts away from a dish that benefits so much from the unique textures they add. On a personal note, having just written about using less plastic, I was ashamed at myself for the amount of waste associated with take-out. I rarely get food this way, so hadn’t thought it out. But when I picked up my order, I noticed a couple of tables inside Raaga-Go. This is where I’ll continue to dip my toes into the complex world of Indian cuisine next time.

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

It’s been 30 years since Stephen King’s Pet Sematary originally came to the big screen, and the time in-between doesn’t seem to have helped today’s modern filmmakers improve upon it in any way—the new remake is really just OK, and we can’t give it much more credit than that. If you haven’t seen the original, Pet Sematary follows a super-bummed father who finds out that the woods behind his family’s new home in wherever-the-heck, Maine, can raise the dead. Good news for him, we guess, because his cat just died. Whatever it is he brings back, though, it’s certainly not the feline he knew and loved, and that goes double when he tries the same thing with his dead kid (sorry for the spoilers, but seriously, it’s been 30 years, so if you didn’t already know, it’s kind of on you). Dead cat or dead daughter, this dude just can’t win. Cue creepy kid’s drawings, “She’s not the same, dammit!” lines and brief glimpses into

grief-propelled insanity. Jason Clarke as Louis, the aforementioned grieving dad, brings a serviceable performance to life, so to speak, phasing between over-the-top sadness and somewhat capable emotion. He just never quite gets to a place where we aren’t aware we’re watching a movie. John Lithgow is somewhere in there, too, but it’s hard to tell if his role as zombie catalyst is done poorly or he’s simply not given enough screen time to reel us in. Amy Seimetz feels pointless as the mother with a dark secret from the past, though the reveal of her secret is so unceremonious and facile that, at best, it’s hard to care and, at worst, it sort of feels like she deserves to be a bundle of nerves and bad acting. Young Jeté Laurence (The Snowman) surprises as the daughter, however, with a charming perfor-
mance as the living version of her character and a downright chilling turn as the recently deceased. She’s easily the best part of the movie, and it’s got to feel horrible for seasoned (or at least longtime) actors to struggle to keep up with a 10-year-old. Maybe she just had the better dialogue? It doesn’t really matter, though, because Pet Sematary will make its money off a combination of nostalgia, the success of the other recent King remake, It, and the societal agreement we’ve all made that horror movies don’t really have to be well-made—we’ll probably go see them anyway.

+ GORGEOUS AND FUN; ENDEARING - THE THING ABOUT BREASTS FEELS WRONG
Japanese novelist Tomihiko Morimi’s 2010 work Penguin Highway gets the anime treatment in director Hiroyasu Ishida’s 2018 big-screen adaptation of the same name, and its mishmash of sci-fi weirdness and grounded young-adult tale is adorable, well-crafted and moving all at once. Ishida founded the film’s animation company Colorido alongside former Studio Ghibli animator Yojiro Arai, and though shades of Hayao Miyazaki’s legendary style do peek out from time to time, Penguin Highway is about as strong and original a debut as we could hope for. Precocious and conceited 9-year-old Aoyama spends his days concocting experiments and filling notebooks with hypotheses. But when he applies his scientific and experimental mind to the case of the mysteriously appearing penguins in his small suburban Japanese town—far from their natural habitat— the answers he seeks become more baffling and terrifying than he or his cadre of pals is prepared for.

known as The Lady be at the center of the rapidly escalating penguin conundrum, and is the universe as they know it collapsing on itself? Penguin Highway is a triumph, not just in the telling of a complex story aimed at kids in an understandable fashion, but in its razor-sharp wit and endearing cast of characters. Aoyama (voiced by Japanese TV star Kana Kita) strikes a believable balance between insufferable know-it-all and insecure child on the cusp of big things, both personally and scientifically. We might want to hate him had he been written even slightly differently, but we grow to love and believe in him despite a subtle mean streak that appears when the chips are down. The Lady (Yû Aoi), meanwhile, becomes a sublime counterbalance to his actions and desperation to grow up, reeling him in and keeping him young, as he should be. Elsewhere, the film shifts effortlessly between Aoyama’s thirst for knowledge and everyday fourth-grader drama, and though his fascination with women’s breasts is downright uncomfortable, we otherwise land firmly in his corner.

included CGI, is absolutely stunning. Colorido knocks it out of the park from a technical standpoint, recalling the quiet majesty of a forest at one moment and quickly transitioning to something akin to the mad dash toward the end of Ghibli’s Ponyo the next. Charm and substance to the front, it seems, particularly when it comes to the message: Namely, it’s wonderful to aspire to great things, but we must never forget who we actually are. Take your kids, take yourself, just see Penguin Highway immediately. (ADV)

+ THE FOOD; SAITOH - KINDA SLOW; SOME SILLY PERFORMANCES
Filmmaker Eric Khoo brings all the feels and much of the food in Ramen Teh (or Ramen Shop, if you prefer), an adorable mini-opus dedicated to family, cultural exchange and pressures, and the healing power of shared food. Masato (Takumi Saitoh) is adrift, a young man who works days in his father’s famous ramen shop in Japan, where he’s given little responsibility, and spends nights trying to concoct one-of-a-kind recipes using styles and spices from his dead mother’s homeland of Singapore. When his father dies, however, he discovers his mom’s journal and a cache of forgotten photos. Choosing to leave Japan behind, Masato traces his maternal roots, embarking on a perilous reckoning with the past and learning a thing or two about the coming-together of culinary styles. But when his grandmother on his mother’s side refuses to accept him, Masato must harness the power of delicious ramen to do right by himself and put to rest decades of bad blood. Told through a combination of present-day happenings and flashbacks that flesh out his parents’ story, Khoo doles out revelations quietly but sweetly. Khoo’s vision is, at times, glorious, particularly as Masato finds long-lost family or deals with buried memories. Saitoh is subtly excellent, a disarming smile here and a painstaking meal preparation there, but always with a quiet hurt bubbling up from someplace dark. Where Ramen Teh truly shines, however, is in its depictions of disparate Asian foods. Often, such food-based films put the edibles in the background and focus solely on the interpersonal relationships, but here we truly feel like we’re learning something or, at least, get a sudden hankering for noodles, and it properly proves that food can bring us together like almost nothing else.
APRIL
Ramen Shop is sweet and cute and also kinda made us hungry.
This makes it easier to take the slow pace and so-so acting from some of the supporting cast, because even if we sometimes wish Masato would just get to it already, we can’t help but feel for him as a prodigal son of sorts. And then, someplace between the sweeping drone shots of Japanese neighborhoods, the seemingly strange but objectively mouth-watering dishes and the clear respect for talented chefs, we find a simple story told well, and it feels so nice.

+ HAUNTING AND MASTERFUL - YOU’LL PROBABLY SEE THE TWIST COMING
On the one hand, wunderkind director Jordan Peele is a master of suspense and tension, leading us through an onslaught of unsettling truths and fictions alongside terrifying madness in Us, the followup to his 2017 smash hit Get Out. On the other, the logistics of his new film’s narrative elements unravel just enough to leave us with unanswered questions despite a chilling and satisfying conclusion. If Get Out represented the loss of power, Us is the rise to re-obtain it, though Peele takes us deeper and darker than his previous work, and more capably so. We follow the Wilsons, a typical family in Northern California, as they hit their Santa Cruz
beach house for summer vacation. Adelaide, the mother (Lupita Nyong’o in, believe it or not, her first-ever leading role), grew up there, and a haunting event from childhood still follows her despite a loving husband (Black Panther alum Winston Duke) and children (Evan Alex as the son and the beyond talented Shahadi Wright Joseph as the daughter). It’s enough to drive Adelaide and the family out of Santa Cruz altogether, but before they can actually leave, mysterious doppelgängers stage a violent home invasion, thrusting the Wilsons into a nightmare as horrendous as it is baffling. Peele patiently doles out the breadcrumbs, leaving the lead-up to the major events of Us feeling decidedly more tense than the events themselves. But then, the evil is always scarier before we’ve identified it, yes? With brilliant use of sound design and soundtrack, he toys with our emotions and expectations, creating a sort of Pavlovian response to song and audio cues. Nyong’o’s performance is flawless throughout, lending sympathy to her core character and a quiet monstrosity to her shadow self. Other such mirror characters provide scares as well, but none reach the sublime and subdued insanity of a dead-eyed Nyong’o staring carefully into her own eyes, even if Joseph’s wide-eyed and cold smile as the alternate daughter does follow us to the grave. A sparse but vital supporting cast wows as well, like Elisabeth Moss and Tim Heidecker (far better known as a comedian) as the friends with the sad rosé jokes and the barely contained ugliness bubbling up from someplace dark within

We kind of hate them, and we definitely think we’re supposed to. But then we reach the finish line, where (no spoilers) we’re supposed to accept and process a lot of confusing information rather quickly, some of which pushes our willingness to suspend our disbelief to the breaking point. As an allegory for classist barriers, Peele is right on the money with Us; its more subtle statements, however, may be lost somewhere in the classic horror shuffle. Then again, perhaps we’re indulging in semantics and ought to just enjoy the ride—or watch it again a few times knowing what we know of its plot. Because it’s a complete joy getting there, and we include Peele’s rise to become one of the most important directors of our time. We can only imagine what comes next. (ADV)

+ VINCE NEIL STUFF IS OK - WE HATE THESE PEOPLE; THE MUSIC IS WORSE THAN WE REMEMBERED
It’s been 18 years since the members of hair metal band Mötley Crüe released their tellall book The Dirt, and streaming giant Netflix has given it the feature treatment in a new film with the same old title. A tour through the band’s founding, its absolutely insane years of drug and alcohol use, that rise to super-stardom and, eventually, its members’ sobering-up and growing into living mummies with the collective skin of an old baseball glove, it’s no small wonder The Dirt won’t ever make it to the big screen. It’s terrible. From the confusing choice to give each of the principal band members (or the actors who play them, anyway) their own sections of narration despite irksomely similar voices, to the problematic way the film version of The Dirt lionizes Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee, Mick Mars and Vince Neil’s utter disrespect for women and each other, what we get is a disjointed biopic-lite that would’ve felt right at home on the Lifetime network were it not for its crassness. The scene wherein Ozzy drinks his own urine is enough to make us wince, and it doesn’t get much better anyplace else in the movie. Maybe it would get better toward the end, when all their nonsense catches up with them? Naw, that’s done awfully, too. Particularly challenging is the daytime TV-caliber acting, especially from the likes of the usually talented Iwan Rheon (of Hulu’s wildly underrated The Misfits and a little show called Game of Thrones) as guitarist Mick Mars. He seems more bored than we do by the cocaine-fueled juvenile antics of the rest of the band, though it feels like we’re supposed to
find such things heroic or funny; maybe it’s just meant to illustrate that Mars was older than the rest and suffering from a debilitating bone disorder? Whatever. He still sucks. Similar marks go to Douglas Booth as Nikki Sixx and some dude named Machine Gun Kelly as Tommy Lee, two actors who sound like they’re reciting from memory rather than, y’know, acting. Daniel Webber as Vince Neil, however, does show promise—or maybe he was just the only one with actual plot points/ real-life events outside of doing too much coke and punching women in the face. SNL cast member Pete Davidson’s in this thing, too, and he’s just so bad it’s hardly worth mentioning. And so, if the goal was to wow us, to shock us or to otherwise show us how far Mötley Crüe’s members came despite the perilous road to fame and wealth, The Dirt fails, leaving instead a bad taste in our mouths and the disappointment from knowing that the song “On With the Show” is forever ruined because we know just how far into asshole-dom these dudes sank. The Dirt may have been fasttracked in the wake of Bohemian Rhapsody‘s success, but it still feels like this one’s for super-fans only—and it might ruin the band for them, too. (ADV)

SHINE and BEAR were brought to Felines & Friends after their owner passed away. Both cats have since had full vet exams, senior blood screens, dentals, and are ready for adoption. SHINE is blind and can only see light and shadow, so she can startle easily if not talked to upon approach. However, she is a sweet and gentle cat who relies on the companionship of BEAR. SHINE is a pretty polydactyl lynx point Siamese. AGE: born approx. 2004. BEAR is a sweet and social cat who loves to be petted. He is gently protective of SHINE so the cats need to be placed together in a quiet home. BEAR is a handsome Russian Blue mix. AGE: born approx. 2005.

MEET TINK! She is a 1 year and 2 month old mixed breed dog who found her way to Santa Fe from another shelter. Tink is a lovely girl who is ready to join a new family. She currently weighs about 13 pounds. During Tink’s stay here at the shelter she has been bashful and loving when she warms up to you! Tink needs some TLC.

TILLO IS A 7-year-old, 8-pound domestic short-haired kitty. He found his way to the animal shelter as a stray, and was in really rough shape when he arrived (hence the unique hairdo!). Tillo, whose name means ‘holy spirit’, in the Syriac language, is the sweetest of cats and has been such a trooper throughout his recovery. He is ready for a home of his own. If Tillo sounds right for your family, come in and meet him today! He will purr on a moment’s notice.

ACUPUNCTURE Rob Brezsny
Week of April 10th
ARIES (March 21-April 19): The Qing Dynasty controlled China from the mid-seventeenth century to the early twentieth century. It was the fifth biggest empire in world history. But eventually it faded, as all mighty regimes do. Revolution came in 1911, forcing the last emperor to abdicate and giving birth to the Republic of China. I’m inclined to think of your life in 2019 as having some similarities to that transition. It’s the end of one era and the beginning of another; a changing of the guard and a passing of the torch. The coming weeks will be a favorable time to be very active in deciding and visualizing the empire you want next.
shadowing the wisdom of pop singer Pat Benatar, who in 1983 told us, “Love is a battlefield”? Was Ovid implying that to succeed in the amorous arts we must be heroic warriors prepared to overcome fears and risk psychological dangers? Probably. But I will also point out that it takes as much courage to create fun, interesting togetherness as it does to wrestle with the problems that togetherness brings. You need just as much bravura and panache to explore the sweet mysteries of intimacy as you do to explore the achy mysteries of intimacy. Keep these thoughts in mind as you marshal your audacity to deepen and expand your best relationships in the coming weeks.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): I hope that sometime soon you’ll acquire a new source of support or inspiration. Now is a phase of your astrological cycle when you’re likely to attract influences that are in alignment with your deep values. This addition might be a person or animal. It could be a vibrant symbol or useful tool. It may even be a fantasy character or departed ancestor that will stimulate vitality you haven’t been able to summon on your own. Be on the lookout for this enhancement. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Poet David Hinton analyzed the Chinese word for “poetry.” Its etymological meaning is “words spoken at the fertility altar.” Let’s make that your theme, even if you don’t write or read poetry. I suspect the coming weeks will be a favorable time to take a vow or utter a solemn intention in front of a homemade fertility altar. The oath you speak might express a desire to boost your use of your physical vitality: your lust for life, your adoration of the natural world, or your power to produce new human life. Or your vow to foster your fertility could be more metaphorical and symbolic in nature: the imaginative intimacy you will explore or the creativity you’ll express in future works of art or the generous effects you want to have on the world.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The literal meaning of the French term jolie-laide is “pretty and ugly.” Bloggers at wordsnquotes.com define it as follows: “It’s a fascinating quirkiness that’s irresistible, like a face you want to keep looking at even if you can’t decide whether it is beautiful or not.” Jolie-laide overlaps with the Japanese term wabisabi, which describes a person or thing that is lovely because of its imperfection and incompleteness. I bring these facts to your attention because I think you have extraordinary potential to be a master embodier of both jolie-laide and wabi-sabi in the coming weeks.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):As Czech playwright Vaclav Havel (1936–2011) matured, he became a political dissident who opposed the Soviet Union’s authoritarian grip on his country. Eventually he was a key player in the Velvet Revolution that banished Communism. When Czechoslovakia emerged as a new democracy, its people elected him president. Havel later thanked Lou Reed and the band the Velvet Underground for fully awakening his liberationist leadership. He said their unruly music stoked his longing to establish a culture where total creative freedom was possible. I mention CANCER (June 21-July 22): Christopher Robin Milne was this, Sagittarius, because now is a favorable time to the son of author A. A. Milne, who wrote the Winnie-theidentify the music or art or films or literature that might Pooh stories. He said there are two ways to navigate fuel your emancipation in the coming months. through life. Either you “take a bearing on something in the future and steer towards it, or take a bearing on CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Capricorn author J. R. R. something in the past and steer away from it.” So in his Tolkien toiled on his masterpiece The Lord of the Rings for view, “There are those who look ahead and pull and those twelve years. Once he finished, it wasn’t published for who look behind and push.” I’m hoping that in the coming more than five years. So seventeen years passed weeks and months, you will make a delighted commitbetween the time he launched his precious project and ment to the first option: taking a bearing on something in the time when it reached an audience. I don’t think you the future and steering towards it. I think that approach will need that much patience in shepherding your own will inspire you toward the most interesting success. venture to full expression, Capricorn. But I hope you’ll LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The national animal of Finland is summon as much faith in yourself as Tolkien had to rouse in himself. To do so will bring out the best in you! the brown bear. The national insect is the ladybug and the national instrument is a stringed instrument known AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Released in 1998, The as the kantele. As for the national author, it’s Aleksis Kivi, Prince of Egypt is an animated film that tells the story who produced just one novel that took him ten years to of the Hebrew prophet Moses. In the climactic event, write. He also published a short collection of odes and a the hero uses magic to part the waters of the Red few plays, adding up to a grand total of less than 800 Sea, allowing his people to run across the sea floor pages of work. I think that the efforts you make in the and escape the army that’s chasing them. To make coming weeks could have a disproportionately large that seven-minute scene, 28 professional animators impact, as well, Leo. What you lack in quantity will be labored for 318,000 hours. In the coming months, irrelevant compared to the sheer quality you generate. you could create your own version of that marvel, VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I follow the blogger Aquarius. But you’ll need a team to help you, and Evanescent Voyager because she makes me cry with sad that team is not yet ready to go. The coming weeks joy and exultant poignance on a regular basis. One of will be a favorable time to get it ready, though. her other fans wrote her a love note I could have written myself.
