  2. I've been urged by a few fellow 12ozers to make this post. On December 26th I was diagnosed with stage 4 esophageal adenocarcinoma. This cancer of the lower esophagus was caused by acid reflux, something I never even knew I suffered from. It spread to my stomach, liver, and other spots. Back in the late-summer I noticed there was a pressure and constriction in my mid-chest after eating food. Foolishly I waited until early October to mention it to my physician. I was put on an over-the-counter acid and heartburn reducer. In November I met with a gastroenterologist who recommended an upper endoscopy. Mid-December the endoscopy revealed a 2" growth in my lower esophagus. The biopsy results came back a few days later and revealed it was cancerous. I did a CT scan and met with an oncologist a week later where I was told that the cancer had spread. I was told that without treatment my life expectancy would be 6 months. With treatment, 1-2 years. Surgery and radiation would no longer be an option at this stage. Chemotherapy begins January 6th and I am fucking terrified. This is not meant to be a pity post, but more of an open dialog about cancer and how much it fucking sucks. I'm sure in some way we've all be affected by cancer either personally, or through family and friends. What's your story? Also, I urge all of you to get screened or tested for cancer. Even if you don't show any signs or symptoms. It could save your life. On a positive note, I bought a new digital camera and lens as a "Fuck it, I have cancer" present to myself. My goal is to document what little time I have left. When it's all over my digital archive will go to a trusted friend who will see fit to publish a book.

  6. Cut like buttah! I was shopping for a Xmas pocketknife for my brother and checking out some Benchmade assisted knives. I have the shop worker open up the case and he is standing next to me as I thumb open the assisted knife as I do with my unassisted knife out of total muscle memory/habit. The blade flys open and my thumb continues the wave opening motion right into the base of the blade. Finger barely touched the edge, but of course brand new Benchmade is going to duck your shit up. Was going to play it off but quickly realized I was bleeding all over the knife handle, so mentioned it to the clerk. He looked at me like I was a total noob and I went to the bathroom to clean myself up 😂. Went back and continued to look at and eventually buy an unassisted Benchmade for bro. Shop workers were all like “be extra careful” “don’t cut yourself again” when they handed me other knives 😂.

  10. I don't know. I'm a meat eater. I was also vegan for several years. But more and more, I'm more interested in eating meat produced in a facility like this than in any facility like this https://www.truthdig.com/articles/report-details-filthy-conditions-u-s-meat-plants/ After all, muscle is really just made up of different amino acids. Arrange your building blocks and have an ethically sourced Japanese wagyu steak free from disease and contamination. The future is amazing.

  15. I mean, water filtration isn’t exactly natural. While natural elements are used to make filters, there are synthetic compounds used to break down those elements to be repurposed for the construction of filters to be used in water filtration, etc. etc. I see this ban as nothing more than probable cronyism, and the lobbying for the preservation of existing industries, with probable conservative and religious ideological undertones. I will also take this moment to point to the fact that the root cause of all of the aforementioned issues is profit incentives. Pharmaceutical industries, food industries, tech industries, governments.. Pick your favorite flavor of institution to blame, but the root cause will always be the economic system that champions profits over all. (I gon’ done and broked my no politics rule i made on my return, but at least i didn’t do it in the News section!)

  23. on the subject of social media i'll say this, i was pretty active on IG on both a graff account and personal account. it sucked so much of my life, theres something so fucking stale and retarded about doing a piece then posting it to social media. you slowly find yourself slipping into that level of washed where you're painting for the photo then timing it so it gets the most amount of exposure. then that mentality bleeds over into your personal life. the gradualness of it all is really scary, i ended up dropping off the digital map and you know what? as cliche as it sounds i got happier. the constant overloading of information was obviously taking a subtle toll on me year after year. i much prefer coming to the internet when i want something instead of using it to kill time. now if a friend says something of mine was flicked its kind of a nice silly feeling instead of "yeah i know". I had a handful of 12oz people on either account. i would talk to SKI MASK BORIS semi frequently. also kind of crazy mero got a fucking tv show

  24. Dude doesn’t just have “different opinions “, he’s a fucking scumbag. Imagine using your same argument for defending a Nazi skinhead who worships Adolf Hitler , and chalking it up to “I mean, I don’t agree with all of his opinions, but he’s a good guy and makes some valid points.” 🤦‍♂️

  25. It’s curved like that just bc the setup of shooting from the front would look like it’s all infinite white behind the subject on a table top setup like that. Here you’re catching the shot just from the top quick n dirty photo for the sticker pack promo

  27. Sup. Still kicking here. Had a routine CT scan the other day, just waiting for results. I'm still on the IV chemo meds, but handling the side effects a little better. I finally qualify to sign up for COVID vaccination with the comorbidites phase. It will be a relief to have an extra step of protection. Besides all that I am waiting for warmer weather to get some shit done outside.
