This 4 minutes of Bob Burnquist will melt your face. For my money he's the best vert skater in history (Sorry Tony Hawk and Danny Way) and everything he does is SO BIG. Fearless shit. The trick at the 2:36 mark might be one of the best in the history of skating

Squeaky Feet's show last night has a video stream up on Nugs. Lotta virtuosity!

The keyboardist/saxophone player for Squeaky Feet kind of looks like a young Edmund Kemper.

Opposing a power mad despot is literally the most American thing an American can do. These guys got a lot wrong but they nailed that one. It is fundamental to the core of this country.

@MrAndyNgo
Now that the local and national press have started to cover the Portland ICE area round-the-clock in reaction to the President, Antifa have devised a plan where they are encouraging one another to come in animal costumes.

The costumes serve the function of masking the violent extremism to make the direct action appear like a family-friendly gathering on camera, and to whitewash the past ultraviolence.

In 2019, Antifa devised a similar plot by giving out free "milkshakes" at a protest. But they couldn't contain their bloodthirst and nearly killed me when they saw me. In 2020, they mobilized a fake "Wall of Moms" where female Antifa supporters and members wore yellow shirts to act as human body shields while violent rioters behind them hurled projectile weapons.

RIP Annye Anderson. Her memoir blew my mind and exploded the myth of Robert Johnson created by a lotta white dudes. Her talking abt singing Jimmie Rodgers tunes w/Robert still makes me smile.

A series of images I found on my computer labeled "Wrestling solutions."

A roof shaped ring, utilizing an incline. Probably deadly.

A full sized ring inside of a double sized ring. Why not? What do you have to lose?

A ring with vertical ring ropes, attached to an unsecured light fixture. An OSHA violation for sure.

A ring with 9 turnbuckles, instead of the customary 3. This one is fine, no one would have a problem with this one except a whiner.

Uhhh… sounds like we're letting an Arab petrostate build a military base on our own soil. Gotta make good on that jumbo jet bribe.

I mean, even some hardcore Swifties have decried how *bad* her new album is. Just goes to show if you build a big enough fan base you can piss in their ears and they'll still drink the piss.

Taylor Swift's 'Showgirl' Has Already Sold 3.5 Million, Beating Adele In its first five days of release, Swift's new album broke a record set by Adele's "25" a decade ago. Swift's equivalent sales include 1.2 million on vinyl.

The Nobel Peace Prize has always been kind of bullshit. They gave one to Henry Kissinger for fuck's sake.

Arturo Dominguez 🇨🇺🇺🇸 @extremearturo.bsky.social · 1d

🧵 Am I surprised they gave Maria Corina Machado the Nobel Peace Prize? No. Does she deserve it? Also, no. There’s a reason she was barred from running for office in Venezuela: multiple violent coup attempts and calling of foreign governments, like Israel, to invade Venezuela.
