  1. (UPDATE: Love to Nola Activist @fff_zulqarnain holding the flag!!!✊🏾) . . My little 2 cents … IMO Drake dissin’ was only 15% of this performance. He did hella Gemini petty maneuvers towards Drake lol (Serena crip walkin’ 👏🏾 )… but his “pettiness” in giving Americanism the finger in a way that others haven’t tho! 👽On one of the most watched stages in world curated by a national league operating through a plantation agenda DURING our president’s facist takeover - Black art is so critical!!!Of course it looks different than the Black Arts Movement in the 60s + 70s but I believe that this was a LOUD call for artist to use their canvas (platforms) to narrate truth, to protest Americanism, to unite despite our intersectional differences (crips + bloods) and to take risks while having to survive within the system. (And yes woven in propaganda of course). 🇸🇩 An activist waving the Sudan / Palestine flag through protest in the midst of folks crip walking and turf dancing (while security chased him) … was so on point. The performance was an ode to Black culture (narration included) to remind the world that we built this entire country (hello 🇺🇸 formation during “Humble”) and now it’s time to move a little different INTER-communally. 👽But also from Compton to the Congo - the importance of nurturing space for solidarity against the machine is pivotal. It’s not lost on Kendrick (nor many of us) the juxtaposition of the exploitation of the NFL 🏈 (including how they INHUMANELY displaced hella house less folks to curate LIX) vs the message that K Dot is sending as the first solo rap artist to perform on this stage. 👽This performance wasn’t for the wealthy folks in that stadium (maybe as a slap in the face of sorts) and maybe it wasn’t a “traditional” Super Bowl caliber performance - but it’s intention was a homage focused bat signal to us! 2025 is forcing us to tap into our creative intellectual property … the paradigm shift is mandatory and DON’T let this be a distraction but rather a declaration … watching this 15 min of the extraction bowl was all I needed … back to work & rest✌🏾 . . . #superbowl2025 #kendrick #america #blackartsmovement #blackart

  3. 🌍 SHARE! 🌍 You can’t celebrate Earth Day 🌎 without Black people! 👇🏾 1. Black folks invented sustainability and was using these practices way before the 70s. During the transatlantic slave trade to today - sustainability is the Black blueprint. @dominiquedrakeford has done a video about this - go follow her and listen to her podcast @compost_cotton_cornrows (bonus: listen to my episode today!) 🍃 2. SUPPORT, FOLLOW, and PAY Black scientists, farmers, gardeners, environmentalists, activists, and nature artists. I know many of y’all don’t follow enough of us anyways but support comes in many ways! Earth day is not just about nature - it’s about the people too! Follow @blackgirlenvironmentalist & @wawa_gatheru or @raewynngrant 🐻! 3. SPEAK 🗣️ UP about environmental racism towards Black communities! Did YOU KNOW THAT 70% OF BLACK WOMEN DO NOT HAVE CLEAN, SAFE DRINKING WATER? No one speaks up about it as much as they do white communities. Everyone deserves safe drinking water but the lack of inclusion and efforts towards Black communities is always bottom. Black women are and have been doing the work to combat clean water, clean air, and so much more. RESEARCH how Black people in your cities, states are being impacted and what you can do! 4. BUY SMALL BLACK OWNED! ESPECIALLY, BLACK WOMAN OWNED! Yall don’t buy Black owned enough and the Black dollar helps us thrive and continue doing what we love to stay out of work spaces that harm us - freedom is building our own! I SELL MY ART WORK! Buy a print today! 🍃✊🏾🌍 and support Black outdoor stores like @outlandish.nyc 🥾 4. PROTECT Black women, trans women, and mothers - including birthing people. Black women are the most disrespected in the world and our healthcare system is failing us - HARD. Black women die at childbirth at a 243% rate than white women! SAY IT AGAIN! ✨ BONUS: SUPPORT THE BLACK JOY MOVEMENT! ESP us Black folks whom want to adventure in the outdoors / nature! Help curate those safe spaces to do so on the trails, campsites, gardens, the slopes, etc! @jujumil + @colourthetrails is a group you can support! Anyways, go outside and enjoy your earth day (but after you do the work ✊🏾) 🦋🐝 🌎😊

  2. Example #684849 of how tourism so often mirrors colonial exploitation: Recently, Richard Hart of Green Rhino claimed that Mexico City “doesn’t have bread culture”—a statement that conveniently justifies opening his version of the “world’s best bakery” in a city whose existing food traditions he dismisses with open contempt. This is a familiar pattern within the world of tourism: devalue local culture → position yourself as the solution → frame it as a civilizing mission (aka Richard’s bread coming to save Mexico from “those ugly cheap tortas”) then extract profit from the very place you claim is so deeply lacking. Unsurprisingly, his bakery is designed to cater to a foreign clientele—tourists and expats whose spending enriches wealthy business owners, while local food systems and everyday cultural institutions are treated as invisible, inferior, or unworthy of recognition. Mexico City does not lack bread culture. It lacks protection from an extractive tourism economy that rewards outsiders for “discovering” what local communities have sustained for generations. If you’re visiting Mexico City, do what ethical tourism practices call us to do:support what already exists. When I visited the iconic neighborhood staple Pasteleria La Ideal, I remember being so deeply overwhelmed with the choices of different types of breads that I had to get help just organizing my thoughts. I say all this to say: Richard Hart, Mexico does not need your bread. Thank you. #EthicalTravel #MexicoCity #TourismIsColonial #FoodCulture #Gentrification #CulturalErasure #Panadería #TravelPolitics #SupportLocal #richardhart #mexicocitybakeries #panaderialaideal #pastelerialaideal

  3. FWD oversteer is one of the least practiced transient states in vehicle dynamics. Many track orgs won’t allow large angles. Most people don’t want to waste time bringing a FWD to a drift session. So ideally, one would practice on the simulator or empty parking lot before applying it in a practical setting. In martial arts, basic falling techniques are taught to avoid injury. The plan isn't to fall, but at least you're prepared when the time comes. Oversteer practice past the limit will help build pre-planned decisions in a bailout situation, based on factors the driver has already experienced - rather than coming up with a plan on the spot. It also helps build confidence using oversteer to slightly rotate the car on corner entry, in a more practical use case (shown at 0:23). If you are reading this, could you put a flag emoji 🇦🇽 in the comments so I can tell how many people read the description? It would help a lot. I suppose this video might be rage bait for those who can’t read, even though that’s not the intent. IF someone was to do it on the mountain, ideally it’s on a closed course or a scouted area. Otherwise, it would have to be on a corner where the exact time available to change one’s driving line is known. So for this example, I happen to know that one of the fastest downhill drivers would take 5 seconds to cross paths after they become visible - more than enough to change my line if needed. Anyone attempting this should have similar familiarity of the corners they are choosing, and ensure they actually have a large margin of error. Acura Integra spinout video: @medusa_fk8 (also on YouTube) Note that this was a 2015 video and he has created a reaction video on YouTube reflecting on past mistakes. No need to clown on the guy anymore lol, he is much more experienced now.

  3. Happy Earth Day! 🌎 I’m celebrating by dancing🕺🏻✨ Song by @nateandhila 😍⁣ ⁣ 🌎 The first Earth Day was April 22nd, 1970. In 1969 there was a huge oil spill in Santa Barbara that covered the beaches with black sludge and killed many marine animals and birds. (I was born in SB and so was my dad, he remembers getting black tar on his feet from the spill every time he went to the beach for a year after.) That same year, an oil slick caught fire on the Cuyahoga River in Cleveland, a river polluted by industry since the 1870s whose waters had seen fires before. These events became symbols that sparked an environmental movement in the US. Earth Day was originally planned as a teach-in on college campuses, but once word spread, people became excited about the concept and it grew into a larger movement of both young and older people. Women were at the forefront of organizing the first Earth Day in their own communities. This movement was so strong that President Richard Nixon established the Environmental Protection Agency in 1970, and the Clean Water Act was passed shortly after through bipartisan effort, despite Nixon’s veto.⁣ ⁣ ⏰ In present day, we’re at the precipice of what could be the end or a new beginning. According to Paris Climate Architects and authors of 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘍𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘞𝘦 𝘊𝘩𝘰𝘰𝘴𝘦, we need to halve our emissions by 2030 and be at net zero emissions by 2040 (2050 at the latest), to limit warming to 1.5 degrees and have a fighting chance to avoid the worst effects of climate change. I believe we don’t have the luxury of thinking that we’re f*cked and pulling up the covers over our faces, and that we need to start taking action in our lives to reduce emissions, and push corporations and governments to act too!⁣ ⁣ ✨ This Earth Day, I’m thinking about trying to make a plan to halve my personal emissions by 2030, which 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘍𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘞𝘦 𝘊𝘩𝘰𝘰𝘴𝘦 suggests, by deciding to fly less and dreaming about living in a sustainable structure and how I could make that happen in my life 😎⁣ I don’t think LA is zoned for earthships tho lol, maybe we can change the laws? 😛 ⁣How are you celebrating earth day? #earthday #earthday50thanniversary #earthday2020
