Artist Selling Screen Shots of his Instagram Account for 100k

What you see above is part of Richard Prince’s latest art showing at the Gagosian Gallery in New York. The show was originally private according to the New York Post, but has recently been made very public for a number of reasons:
Prince’s 48-inch by 56-inch″ inkjet prints from celebs’ social media feeds — with his comments underneath that are sometimes just emojis — have been on display for VIPs in a private area at the Madison Avenue space.
A spy who saw the works said pics of Pam Anderson and Kate Moss are included and selling for up to $100,000.

Fuck this high society art life. It literally drives me crazy thinking about it. What the fuck is the point of this and why the fuck would you ever pay that much money??????? I can literally go on my phone, look that picture up on Instagram, Screen Shot it, and Print that on a 48 by 56 inch poster at Kinkos in fucking 10 minutes. Listen, im a man who likes to reason both sides just cause i want to know i can. I can rationalize rich assholes spending money on a different car for every day of the week. I can imagine being in the shoes of a peasant farmer who just enjoys working the land. I dont think i can EVER rationalize spending 100 Thousand dollars on some phoney rip off artist whos a lazy rich fuck for a large screen shot of someone who doesnt follow me back on instagram. Fuck everything about this.

We’ve Got a Homeless Shitter Fiasco in Downtown Miami

Miami Herald-Tasked with marketing Miami to tourists and investors, the tax-funded Downtown Development Authority has plenty of maps highlighting restaurants, tourist attractions and real estate development. On Thursday, they unveiled their latest: a detailed map showing where people popped a squat on downtown streets. The scatological atlas, smiling poop emojis and all, was created amid a swirling dispute between downtown boosters and the Miami-Dade Homeless Trust over how to get homeless men and women off the street, and how to deal with corresponding sanitation issues. The two public agencies have been feuding for about a year now, dating back to the creation of a temporary shelter program at Camillus House, and more recently with the DDA’s promotion of souped-up porta-potties.

Its not all sandy beaches and beautiful babes down in Miami anymore. Once you scrap away the facade of the Miami high rises and luxury cars  you’ll find that the homeless are leaving their shit and piss stained marks all over the city. Enough to the point where its become an epidemic apparently. On SE 1st street, that one little shit spot is a block away from one of my favorite Italian spots and I cant have that. Last thing i want after getting a belly full of Fettuccine allo ScoglioIf with a date and walk back to my car and find a guy with his pants around his ankles grunting while he shits.  If I were homeless and i had to crack a deuce i probably would pinch one in the alley too if i had to and were there but even i would try to do the most logical thing i could think of and thats try to take a shit into the ocean. Its the largest toilet in the world and Im almost sure sewage is connected to the ocean anyways and its right there. Just head over to Bayfront where u can get over the ledge and drop one in the Atlantic. That areas just shipping yards anyways, not like thats where tourist flock too. Find a wash off area near the beach and clean your self and go back to being a bum. Keep Miami’s reputation good so you can ask tourist for more change. Problem solves.

 

Well I bet Kionna Moret Didn’t Think Her Memorial Day Weekend Would Culminate in Getting Arrested for Child Neglect.

SUFFOLK, Va. (WAVY) – An 8-year-old boy was allegedly left home alone for the Memorial Day weekend while his mother traveled out of state. Kionna Moret, 27, is now facing charges of child neglect and child endangerment after someone called police to report her son being left to fend for himself Saturday. “To leave an 8-year-old on their own for a weekend and go two states away, to me, is just mind blowing,” said the woman who filed the police report. The woman wished to remain anonymous to protect her family, but she said her teenage child was outside kicking a ball around Saturday afternoon when the young boy came outside to play. She said the boy later told her son he was left home for the weekend by his mother who went to South Carolina for the holiday weekend. The woman told WAVY.com she called authorities around 5 p.m. Saturday after talking with the boy herself. “I looked over at him and said, ‘Hey, is your mom home? I need to talk to her.’ He got very hesitant and I said again, ‘I need to talk to your mother. Is she home?’ He hesitated again and he said ‘no.'” According to the woman, the 8-year-old then told her his mother wasn’t planning to come home to Suffolk until Monday. “I said, ‘Monday?’ and I said, ‘Who is staying with you?’ He said, ‘Nobody, I’m home alone.’ And then I said, ‘You’re home by yourself?’ He said, ‘Yes, my mom said I was old enough because I took Taekwondo.'” She said the boy told her he had pre-made corned beef hash and pizza for food along with a cell phone to check in with his mom every hour. The boy told her he was to keep her travels a secret. “He said his mother had told him that she would spank him until he could not sit down if he told anybody,” said the woman. Police were at Moret’s home near the 100 block of Windsor Court for more than six hours Saturday night, according to the woman. She said there’s still many questions running through her mind. “How many times have I looked and seen no vehicle in the driveway, and now I wonder if he was inside by himself,” said the woman. “It is very frightening.” She said she’s relieved the boy was able to get help before a potentially dangerous situation and she’s hopeful Moret will be held accountable. “If that’s the parenting that she is going to display, she needs to be retrained and be given the privilege back at a later time.” Moret bonded out of the Western Tidewater Regional Jail on Saturday. The 8-year-old remains in the custody of Child Protective Services.

Listen I obviously don’t think Kionna should get a mother of the year mug or anything but a little context is needed in this story. Lets start from weak to strongest point here.

Screen Shot 2015-05-25 at 2.45.03 PMTwo states away SOUNDS extreme but in reality its not the worst.Going from Virginia to South Caroline is like 5 and half hours drive. Here in South Florida you could barely leave the state in that distance of time depending on your starting point. Saying she went two states away is just a ploy to make her case sound even worse. Its Ft. Laudy to Gainesville distance, not THAT bad if you ask me.

Screen Shot 2015-05-25 at 2.48.11 PM Look at that neighborhood! Its like in Home Alone when they say nothings gonna happen because they live on the most boring neighborhood on the block. Its really kind of a paradox, these safe looking neighborhoods with the picket fence where almost nothing happens and the next thing you know the neighbors getting arrested for child neglect but in NYC you see tenement housing literally being run by little bastard children and out on subways on their own by the time they can walk and read basic english. Im sure this kid knows how to lock the doors and dial 911, which from the looks of that house and neighborhood, probably would never need to call. Id love to be home alone in that nice house.

Screen Shot 2015-05-25 at 2.56.40 PMKionna’s been criticized enough so Im gonna give her the benefit of the doubt and say she atleast is a somewhat decent cook/can order pizza pretty well. Corned beef hash? sign me up. Breakfast loaded with your meat and potatoes that can fill you up past lunch for sure. Pizza? its like literally the healthiest thing anyone probably eats on the weekend. If you get a nice plain cheese pie its technically vegetarian soo this kids meal his mother set for him is pretty much a balanced diet to me. Not to mention the cell phone check up every hour. Shit sometimes Im too poor on the weekend to order pizza and i definitely don’t get any loving phone calls from my mother.

c20a29deb280f7c6abcd4e5830b2ce2cThe kid knows taekwondo. As fas as I know he didnt have a gun where he could potentially kill himself from misuse, but what he did have was the knowledge and training to subdue any potential threat that walks through that door

Memorial-Day-Bikini-Swimwear-Bikinis-Swimsuits-Memorial-DayBut most of all its Memorial day weekend. The reason we celebrate is to honor those who served in the military, and guess what, those same kids back then wanted to, no. Had to be a man of the house by 8 years old. And whats more irresponsible, Kid in the safe confines of a nice suburban home with food and technology or at some party that could potentially get violent or risk a child consuming alcohol or on the roads where there are drunk drivers? The answer is the kid in the safe house.

So Apparently Kids are into Summoning Mexican Demons With this Charlie Charlie Challenge?

There’s a new Twitter craze out there, and it’s pretty darn scary! The Charlie Charlie Challenge is taking over social media and kids everywhere are trying to summon a Mexican demon! Click to WATCH their terrifying reactions!
Forget the Kylie Jenner Lip Challenge, Twitter is now all about the Charlie Charlie Challenge. Kids are sharing scary videos on Twitter of their attempt to summon a Mexican demon. While some are poking fun at the new craze, the fact that summoning a demon is considered fun is pretty wild. Buckle up, and get ready for very loud screams!
The challenge involves putting two pencils on a piece of paper in the shape of a cross. You write the words “yes” and no” inside the four squares outlined by the pencils. Those who dare to try the challenge then say, “Charlie, Charlie are you here?”

Well why on EARTH would you want to summon a demon?? And a Mexican one at that! Fuck all of that. Now don’t get me wrong, this shit doesn’t freak me out….that much. If I’m in a room with all these people and they freak out then I’m gonna freak out too and probably bolt out the room. I mean after all theres no point in being a tough guy on the off chance this shits real. But there’s 99.9999999% chance these people are screaming because 2 rounded surfaces come into the slightest contact with the wind. No need to freak out and run out of the house, down the block, leaving your brothers and sisters behind. I will say though, i freak out at scary movies and i will never for the life of me be able to say bloody marry or candy man in a bathroom. Never.

P.s- gotta have the black twitter take on it.

Weed Infused Coffee Pods for Your Keurig Hits the Market.

FWE-Tired of waking up, making your coffee, and then packing a bowl? Getting lit and caffeinated is now as simple as inserting a coffee pod and pushing a button. There are now several companies based out of California and Washington selling THC-infused coffee pods, reports Yahoo. (And you thought this marijuana-infused cold brew was convenient.) Uncle Ike’s Pot Shop in Seattle sells “premium infused coffee” pods, which contain 10 mg of THC each, for $10 a pop. Vancouver, WA-based Fairwinds Manufacturing makes the infused coffee sold at Uncle Ike’s. James Hull, Fairwinds owner, tells Yahoo that “pods now account for about 60% of his company’s coffee sales.” sarah House of Jane in California makes THC-infused K-Cups and ground coffees, available in 20 mg to 120mg doses. The company’s founder, Ben-David Sheppard, tells Yahoo that he has a THC-infused “Frappuccino” in the works, inspired by Starbucks’ beloved beverage, and that the company plans to expand to Nevada once medical marijuana shops begin opening there.

I don’t really have anything to say about this product exactly aside from the fact that we’re living in a culturally interesting time of life. In the future people wont have as many cultural issues as we had because we’ve sorted them all out for them already. Well let me write this as a way to document how life was at some point. At some point in time believe it or not, weed use was castigated. That was something that criminals did. They would smoke the marijuana leaves and get as high a kite and be a delinquent for life. Your grandpa will tell you stories about how them darn rappers would smoke the reefer and steal all the white women in town. Well guess what? its 2015 and worlds have collided. What was once a crutch that separated those hardened criminal rappers from the upscale WASP of society, has now evolved into one of the most snobby upper middle class thing that white people use and thats a Keurig coffee k-cup. Once legalization hits all 50 states in America, that Haitian Zoe pounder might be living in a drug den with cracked sheet rock and busted appliances but you just know he wont have to worry about rolling blunts when he can just fix up a medium decaf organic fair trade weed coffee k-cup for his Keurig just like the white women in the world.

Man Goes Out Canoeing with his friends and Cat. Ends up Dying.

46-year-old man drowned in an Antioch lake Sunday night when he jumped in the water to save a cat that he and his friends had taken canoeing, authorities said. Three friends were in a canoe with the cat in about 35 feet of water, more than 200 feet from shore on Loon Lake in north suburban Lake County, said Lt. Chris Nixon of the Antioch Fire Department. Chicago man drowns in Wisconsin Dells Chicago man drowns in Wisconsin Dells When the cat jumped into the water, one man went in after it, capsizing the canoe, with all three people ending up in the water, he said. A pontoon boat that was nearby saw the incident and immediately motored over, saving a man and a woman who were in the canoe as well as the cat, Nixon said. The man who had initially jumped from the canoe did not resurface. Rescuers were called to the scene, near the north shore of Loon Lake, about 7:45 p.m. and recovered his body just after midnight, said Sgt. Sara Balmes of the Lake County Sheriff's Office. Balmes said alcohol was a factor. The victim's identity was being withheld pending an autopsy, authorities said. An investigation of the incident was being conducted by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.

Cats literally have the same 4 appendages as dogs. Even dogs with the smallest and skinniest of legs can swim. Their larger primal jungle cat counter part the tiger, lion, leopards all of those can swim. The modern domesticated house cat is just one of the most inferior animals on the planet and to make matters worse, they’re now the cause of death to some people.

Tech Nerds thinking eating is for losers, instead have drink that reminds people about a 70’s film about eating human flesh.

(NEWSER) – Silicon Valley types have long bemoaned the need to spend time eating. "If there was a way that I couldn’t eat so I could work more, I would not eat," Tesla's Elon Musk once said. And that's why "food replacement" products are catching on so quickly among the techie set: “I think engineers are ready to throw in the towel on the illusion that we’re having this family dinner," one startup founder explains to the New York Times. "Let’s do away with all the marketing facade and get the calories as quickly as we can." Food replacement products like Soylent, Schmoylent, Schmilk, and People Chow are protein powders (that also include other nutrients) that can be mixed with water or milk and, creators say, used as a complete diet. Thus, by mixing up a batch each night and sipping throughout the day, one software developer explains, he doesn't need to think about food until 7pm. But, as the Times notes, the powdered drinks "typically taste like bland, gritty pancake batter," and even some devotees admit they get tired of the taste. (A writer who lived on Soylent for 30 days in 2013 notes that some have compared it to semen; his own comparison is baby formula.) But that hasn't stopped the drinks' wild success: Investors are heaping money on the companies, some would-be drinkers are waiting as long as six months to get their first orders, and the powders are even being served at Silicon Valley events. (At one dinner party, a software engineer served a side dish of peanut-butter-enhanced Soylent alongside pad thai.) Also appealing: A week's worth of the drinks costs about $85, while eating a meal at a Silicon Valley restaurant will run you about $50—or more. But some who've tried Soylent say it's still too much work to prepare—or it's just plain joyless.

Anyone who’s been in a kitchen knows the technical calories are the least important part of the meal. You eat with your eyes first, then your nose, and last of all mouth. Its about that juicy burger or that cheesey slice of pizza when you pull a slice away from the rest of the pie. Thats what i hate about these new tech revolution kids, they want everything to be made out of aluminum and wants life to be a dull as possible. Fuck them. I also got some theories of my own about this shit. 1.) its made out of human flesh like in the 1970’s movie featuring Charlton Heston. I don’t even understand how in 2015 where everything gets unwarranted outrage that this name hasn’t caused up a stir yet. 2.) The human body is like one of the greatest machines on earth. Nerd scientist cant recreate anything as complex as people. I think its one of those things where everything has to function and by not having to eat anymore, i think something radical would happen like our teeth shoot into our brains or something. Kinda like rodents. Or the second we eat something solid it explodes in our stomach because its not use to solids anymore. Well fuck that, give me pizza slices to gobble down over this awful pancake powder drink.

P.s- How about the dude who said it tasted like semen? I’m gonna try and be nice and say he just over shot one day during a session but in reality he’s might just be a silicon valley tech nerd who catches.

 

Bet you never wanted to see muscles cramp to the point where it looks like an Alien baby is about to burst through huh?

 

Charlie horses are the worst. I wear jeans a lot so i just feel it and suffer but if i saw that, i honestly could see myself freaking out and wanting to kill my self in that moment. Also, I get cramps a lot when im like waking up and i stretch and i pull that shit or something to the point where it cramps up. I think thats a sign that i gotta do more in life but telling this story was more than enough.
