Speaking of the gonz…got a new hat today

Skated a good hour this morning for my first session in nearly a year. Got a few grinds and slides in and it felt glorious.

Got the music room almost dialed in.

Given the current state of affairs, I’d like to see a pro wrestler with an elementary school teacher persona and be called “the laminator”

If the slap boards are really gone, how will I know I’m skating the wrong trucks from now on?

I skated today, for the first time in 8 months. Injuries suck but here’s hoping I’m on the way back

Someone please help me stop apologizing to people for not doing what they WANT when it’s well outside, above, and beyond my job responsibilities scope. I shouldn’t have to be “sorry” I’m not doing someone else’s job.

I’m on Bluesky today because there are fewer slow impact FOMO inducing photos here than the other places.

This thing is gargantuan. I love it but I really need wider trucks to skate it well and those are expensive. May be a wall hanger.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

New skateshop day pickup. Might need wider trucks…

Well, shit. My back just went “nope” all over again and I am down for the count. Feels like I’m back to September/October where it hurts to move in any directions and frequent surprise spasms fold me in half.

This. All day long.
Dear DNC, DSCC, and DCCC:

I don't want to see another fundraising text or email asking for a dollar of mine until I see an actual plan to meet this moment.

Y'all had 11 weeks between the election and inauguration, and there's still no plan. There's no excuse for that.

No plan, no donation.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Listening to the @mostlyskate.bsky.social pod today and the vx1000 comparison to vintage guitars was spot on. @mmunzenrider.bsky.social had the “tone is in the fingers” take spot on with its he filmer that gets the most out of the camera. Great episode

Had a PT checkup Thursday and the spine is healing! Graduated to ‘strength building’ Program and could actually be back on a board by spring. Hope springs!

Did some fret work yesterday. Trying to teach myself some guitar repair skills on old parts. Came out pretty nice

Re-engaging here since all the other sites are becoming more hellish (also love that I’ve trained my autocorrect to suggest “Ishod” every time I type “ish”). If you’ve missed RSD from the bird app, you found me again.

Learning to push fakie (not a true switch push) really did something to my brain. It’s weird.

What a lovely evening for a walk
