I’m not kidding. The temps are still below freezing today but I’m out here. Recent warm temps and heavy rains have made the streets rideable. Enjoy this clip.

It’s not like I try to do these things but front board slides are the great equalizer in skateboarding and apparently I’m dead set on being equalized. Resolved. I feel like this is my month of retrograde and when I woke up this morning and C_ told me that today was going to be better I said, “But hoooooowwwwwwww.” Anyway after readmission into Boogey Concussionland I walked home in the rain on Whiplash and Vine feeling sad and dissociative. I felt like I could walk through a wall. It wasn’t that bad of a whack even. Just the stupid whiplash is what really bums me out. It’s the feeling of rigor mortis setting in and morbidity. Enjoy your early onset disability. It’s in everyone’s future.

Here’s what I look like after I hit my head. I always think these photos look kind of funny so I like to take them. Also I apologize to Torre because I hugged him in the skate shop before I left and I know how much he hates people.

Yesterday’s post was a lot of fun for me- not because I’m great at skateboarding (obvious!) or because I have an absolute endless appetite for validation in the desolate vacuous landscape of the internet/world/hellscape. I’m sorry. I digress. No, the reason I enjoyed the post so much is because I have complete control over the appearance. Namely, the size of the video and resolution. No one can offer that without pay service. I tried putting it on YouTube to save bandwidth but instantly it was recognizable as YouTube and placed into a silo that is stupid and cost effective for YouTube…as it should be. They only offer up 3 billion gigs of content a day. I guess they should try to get paid. I enjoyed that my friends could see me in a presentable size without advertising being crammed at them or suffering to see the video on the largest phone screen possible. Sad state that watching a video on a computer display is considered a luxury. No one knows how to watch or see anything anymore. We all think it should be a painful experience. One filled with malice and little hearts to smash or algorithms to tweak…or twerk. I think I’ll make more of these. Gonna get some content today.

Anyway- this is where I write the blog. Thanks for reading.
