Where's Baby Bash?

[JB]

The loudness point is good, with amplified instruments and vocals you’d need loud drums to drive the beat through and it’s about people getting down on the dance floor.

I always imagined it went the other way around. The reason for amplification is not only to fill the space with sound, but also to be heard over the drums. Guitars, vocals and other instruments got louder as musical styles evolved, but drums have always been loud. Even if you just want to play rock music in a small room in your house, or maybe in your garage (givecigstosurfgroms  ), you need something pretty fucking loud if you want to play with a drummer.

Yeah that makes sense.

Is that your dog?


I wonder what Jimi Britches is doing right now?

[woodinbrine]

Is that your dog?

Yeah, that’s our Molly. She’s 9 years old and possibly the hungriest golden retriever on earth.

Beautiful.

I’ve been seriously looking into getting a black lab/greyhound mix, but I dunno if I have enough space and am home enough to really give it a good life. I should probably just get another cat, if anything.

Capitalism x Protestant work ethic, I think?

How do I get my crackhead roommate evicted?

[ungzilla]

just put his crack outside

[7 year old]

My crackhead roommate is a woman and overweight to the point where she could probably kill me just by falling on me, there's no way I'm getting between her and her crack

You tell your landlord that your roommate smokes crack. Most leases, if not all, prohibit drug use and illegal activities.

Edit: I don’t advocate snitching, but that’s the easiest way. Hopefully, you don’t have kids. Personally, I would just find a new place and sublet the current one. If that isn’t an option, you can make her uncomfortable by walking around naked or smearing feces on the walls. Aside from the crack, what’s so bad that makes you want to get her evicted?

If it don't bother u let em smoke. My old landlord keep a ball to trade for hooker fuck from a crack hoe. Didn't bother me.

[Betaphenylethylalamine]

The main problem is that she's been stealing things from me and my other roommates. There's a lot of other things but that's the main one. I am probably going to have to sublet the place.

Imagine if it was Bams voice all the time instead of like the regular GPS, Siri, Alexa or Morgan Freeman robot shit.

Decided against moving to new mexico with my girl after a short stay in texas , pondering sustaining myself on my own and what my next move will be.

[Madam, I'm Adam]

After watching Peace, I'm thinking that watching skate videos now is like watching a movie - I'll watch a movie once to be entertained but I'll rarely watch the same one repeatedly. I experience it, get entertained, and then move on. I don't absorb skate videos any more.

i wonder what nyjahs board sales look like, i mean theres no way they sell well.

If SLAP was able to help bring light to the shittiness of Jason Jesse and violent actions of Daryl Angel, how is it that Chase Gabor is still in skating when there is a literal recording on the internet of him jokingly talking about sodomizing children with a screwdriver?

[childhood]

I feel like part of it is that he's not major enough?

I was thinking something similar recently, about how it's crazy Jereme Rogers hasn't gotten MeToo'd yet (you know he's done plenty of shady shit), but I'm sure if he was actually famous he would be.

He did it when he was a kid but he probably has that Scientology money.

Alright, a jack rustle flying a tiny kite while he's running (with the kite string tied to his body)-I like thinking about the concept of a photo taken of this from a very low perspective.  Prolly would be the best image ever.   Also I was thinking about how b4 the agricultural revolution magic mushrooms would be MUCH less accessible (No fields with sheep and cows, get me?).  Prolly a big part of the puzzle of the exponential 'advancement' of humans that's tooken hold in a relatively short period.  Maybe.

i wonder what ISSY is up to

was thinking about how old movies and tv shows give you a special nostalgia .. and it made me think, maybe it’s the fact that we are watching actual film and not a digital picture .. there’s something special about film .. in skateboarding it translates to the vx / hd debate

theres definitely something pleasing about analog media. i totally agree with the file vs. digital thing. it's not that it looks "better", but it has a charm that digital doesnt have.

i've noticed it with music too. things recorded on tape just have a bit more life to them than digital recordings. amps too. tube amps just sound so much bigger and fuller than solid state amps in my opinion.

Why the fuck are people embracing authoritarianism?
