I haven't liked Snoops new music in decades. But The Chronic, Doggy Style, a lot of stuff he did with The Dogg Pound, 2Pac all those OG G-Funk bangers are such a huge part of my childhood and I've kept them close to my heart since the 90s. He's unrecognizable now. However, I'm not going to deny myself the albums that are a part of who I am and what makes me me just because a ridiculously rich and global famous ex-G loses his way. It's not even the same guy anymore. It may be the same vessel, but what his music represents to me from those very early days are just too important to me.

I was about to call bullshit on this because I thought there was no fucking way. I hadn't heard any of that before just a few minutes ago because I had too look it up. how embarrassing. G-Funk LBC King aka Mr 'Break the white man off something lovely, I don't love them so them can't love me" playing into the hands of the embodiment of all the absolute worst aspects of rich white dude culture. I'm so yuked out rn.

So, we still have about 2,000,000 in our federal prison systems but I'm sure the prisons going up across the boarders, technically not on US land, won't factor into that number in years to come. Incarcerate more and show stats telling us citizens the number is actually going down...

 

Has it ever been more relevant?

Rape. It was rape. Call it what it is. The longer we tiptoe around teachers having sex with kids, the longer the problem will exist. She raped a kid.

I don't think there has ever been a harder drop for a 1st timer. This came out before The Chronic. Dre after NWA but before his solo career. Very unique track that really shaped the world of mainstream west coast/G-Funk hiphop.

Look at little good eyed rascal. That's a #1 in the making, no doubt.

Yeah sure. It also says we are supposed to be stewards of the earth and take care of each other as if we are brothers and sisters. Yet they push legislation to destroy the earth under our "biblical" care and treat others like criminals and garbage. But please go on with your corperate bullshit. The Bible says not to take the lords name in vein. That doesn't mean shouting "god fucking damnit" when you stubborn your pinky toe. I means using your diety as the reason for entirely unbiblical bullshit. So, basically, go fuck yourself dude.

One of the kids in my grade just happened to be the son of my teacher at the time. He did not like me because the girl he liked was giving me attention. We'll, one day he caught us holding hands (hard-core, I know) so he went to his mom, my teacher, and said I punched him in the face and had been bullying him. I never ever bullied anyone, especially him, and certainly never hit him or anything of the sort. Not once. But it was my word against his and obviously my teacher sided with her son. I had to stay after school everyday for something like 2 weeks. She never treated me the same again. I'm still salty about that. He totally got me. That ginger motherfucker. Jesse, if you're out there somewhere, fuck you.

M'erican here. My workshop is 100% metric. I do far too much measuring, designing and planning to fuck around with inches, feet and football fields. Motherfuck the imperial system. America has been robbed of the superior until of measurement. Every last bit of my work is in millimeters and it will be that way until I die in a horrible firey accident in my shop because beer and dangerous power tools are just too much fun when taken together.

 

I'm not usually one to share my art but I've been really wanting to branch out and share it with others because I'm about to make a big step forward in life. This is my latest piece. I designed all the models in Blender and made all the tool-pathing for my CNC machine in this wonderful program called VCarve Pro. Also, shout out to Krita for being the best magic bullet to get ideas from my brain to a format that I can start editing. Basically takes 1 500 x 500 MDF for the 14mm thick base x x2 500 x 500 sheets of Lauan plywood for the reflectors, boarder and the words which lovingly and accurately describes what JWST truly is deep down, a straight-up science gangster. The black lettering and hexagon lines I did by cutting text pockets in the wood then filling them with an epoxy + enamel paint mix. And after a good sanding and oil coating, this is where I'm at. Still trying to develop a way of mounting the piece to the wall as well as a better way of getting the text on the JWST model itself.

Also, you can't really see it from this angle, all the reflectors are facing inward towards a single point. Eventually I'll make the OTE (The black thing in the middle where nothing sits as of now)

I'm still working out the kinks but I plan on making the next one even better... which is currently being made right next to me.
