There's no getting around how gross it is. It's literally cells being grown in a lab and then 3D printed into something resembling what is otherwise found in nature. All the GMO shit is already pretty fucked IMO. Obviously rooted in shit like splicing one fruit plant with another to create a hybrid. Then they got creative and take genetics from shit like sea creatures to add in characteristics like cold hardiness. Then that slips into shit like adding in chemicals that then create a reaction when sprayed with a catalyst. Now they're on a whole other level by manipulating shit at a molecular level to create food from scratch. Few people stop to question whether this is actually needed for food security, versus methodologies like sustainable agriculture, permaculture or simply reassessing the supply / distribution chains and seeking to streamline consumption vs waste in a more natural (and obvious) way. Guaranteed if you pull back the curtain not his new 'industry', it's all big Pharma behind it. Same reason they go well out of their way - at the expense of your health - to come up with synthesized compounds that can be patented in the name of 'health', versus potentially better solutions in nature (which cannot be patented), same shit applies to food. They're literally building a new class of big Pharma consumers and double dipping by feeding them shit that they can then follow up with equally fucked up 'solutions' for once you're sick. Call it conspiracy, but it's pretty much on the surface. Take a look at a map of dialysis clinics and then compare it to a map of McDonald's franchises and then look at the investment groups that are often bankrolling both. Totally fucked, but I can still respect that maybe people should be left to make their own decisions rather than allow government to intervene. Problem though, which is similar to regulating social media, is we're now in an era where you're forced to use certain services in order to navigate the modern world. That is only become more obvious and more solidified as time goes on. It's definitely a tangled web in that government is pretty much who orchestrated that framework and though I'm first in line to state that they are the problem and not the solution, but likewise... What happens when the modern world is engineered in such a way that it becomes all but impossible to opt out of all that bullshit?

Funny that I can win here to post exactly that. Great moment indeed...

@Avesism

Have him DM me if he wants them all combined.

LOLOLOL, happy to see you posting again!

🤮

I heard he never made it. His jet got grounded in FL by homeland and never left.

really incredible...

This was a fun one for sure. Super teeny tiny as well, considering all the details.

Not for nothing, but this has been by far the best rally / outreach we've pulled off so far. Congrats to everyone participating! Might just be some hope yet for this. Again, another heads up that we're beta testing a dedicated iPhone App. Should be out officially this summer, but might make this a lot easier for everyone to jump back in if they setup the beta.

Amazing, glad you dropped by! Just a heads up that we're beta testing a dedicated iPhone App. Should be out officially this summer. Welcome back dude! Just a heads up that we're beta testing a dedicated iPhone App. Should be out officially this summer.

LOLOLOLOL!

Definitely nostalgic. Some of it doesn’t even seem real to me. Kind like something I dream up until I stumble on old photos like this or bump into someone that was there. Hopefully there’s plenty of fun times ahead of us especially with everything picking back up.

Some old names to jog memories…

I believe it’s actually latency issues but unsure. Could be a slow connection or server issues. Very likely also amplified by how true apps handle that as well as caching so that all remains smooth. Anyhow, looking like the big forum update is pushed to April so will be a little longer before I can get too much deeper into it. Hopefully it remains usable and fun in the meantime.

Fun little video showcasing our ability to embroidery. Fun fact: My son digitized and stitched this out. He actually runs the embroidery / Coloreel side of things. Anyhow, you guys get to see the video first. Enjoy! 12ozCollective_Kanye.mov

Reminding you guys that @Kults actually started a whole group on this.

Inspired by this comment from @fat ralphy ... https://forum.12ozprophet.com/topic/95790-the-rebirth-of-12ozprophet/?do=findComment&comment=6534019 What are the main Instagram accounts you see out there of people steady benching, walking and traveling for graffiti and posting images of it all. Not the writers themselves, but dudes that are known for always taking and sharing flix? Maybe I can reach out and work something out with a few of the main ones to help encourage graffiti content in those forums? We know this is a better user experience to see, share and discuss graffiti than Instagram anyways. Has to be a way to work something out yo get them posting on here as well / instead?

Definitely something I need to be better at encouraging and supporting as well. It'll build... Still a lot of people out there taking photos and benching. Just need to get more of them on here instead of wasting energy posting on Instagram just for them to get buried.

Feels like a lifetime ago when I was staying at an ex girlfriend's apartment on Forsyth park. Downloading music all day and countless hours on the forum, LOL. Think @diggity took that apartment over at some point. Damn, so crazy to think of those days and where we're all at now.
