  • On every single skateboard post or short video, somebody will mention Mullen too.

    But anyway, outside of skateboarding, millennials also know of Bam, Sheckler and maybe Dyrdek.

    Gen-z probably knows of the YouTubers that show up in their feeds. SkateIQ (Mitchie Brusco), SkateNomad (Mike Boisvert) and probably Andy Anderson because he’s everywhere.

    I think it’s safe to say that skateboarding isn’t as mainstream as it used to be when MTV was the main youth cultural feed, but it also allows for a lot more unknown people to rise up. Nobody cares about what young dude Thrasher and the industry wants to portrait as a professional. The skate scene these days basically consists of old men and young women watching footage on YouTube.











  • EU has an allow system, which is the reason the CyberTrucks is not on the EU market. It would not be able to pass the safety requirements if they attempted.

    On a similar note, the EU also has an allow system for all vehicles already on the road. Every single vehicle is inspected every two years, with the first check for new cars being after 4 years. This system keeps older rusty cars away from the roads.

    Tesla’s other models have an issue passing even the first test. It’s the brand with the highest failing rate of all car brands.

    The tax deduction is deducted from your taxable income, is what he said. His math checks out.

    Explained differently: A union membership costing 700 only costs you 490, assuming your tax is 30% and that it is deductible where you live.

    Meanwhile, the game console still costs 700.
