Please, Don’t Look At Me...

I’m a dad and a veteran. I like soup and guitars and working out and neuroscience and trying to smile. Ignorant and Arrogant

Don’t be a “respect is earned not given” kind of person

Be a “respect is given unless proven undeserved” kind of person

Tomorrow the thing will be finished and I’ll be back in Atlanta by this time next week. It’s bittersweet, to say the least. #justluthiershit #leelooandcorbindallas (at Roberto-Venn School) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtU13F9gexA5LlEiUIzWpQ4mMuVIrCGBYnZKxw0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gw3ev57sfz17

Deregulation will get you killed. Republican policies make your life worse.

Yacouba Sawadogo is an exceptional man – he single-handedly managed to solve a crisis that many scientists and development organizations could not. The simple old farmer’s re-forestation and soil conservation techniques are so effective they’ve helped turn the tide in the fight against the desertification of the harsh lands in northern Burkina Faso.

Over-farming, over-grazing and over population have, over the years, resulted in heavy soil erosion and drying in this landlocked West African nation. Although national and international researchers tried to fix the grave situation, it really didn’t really make much of a difference. Until Yacouba decided to take matters into his own hands in 1980.

Yacouba’s methods were so odd that his fellow farmers ridiculed him. But when his techniques successfully regenerated the forest, they were forced to sit up and take notice. Yacouba revived an ancient African farming practice called ‘zai’, which led to forest growth and increased soil quality.

The way it works is really cool! You can read about it here.

There’s been a documentary about him, too

Something 19th and 20th century Western science consistently overlooked is that a lot of traditional methods are exquisite examples of the scientific method in action, the product of testing hypotheses and comparing results and control groups iteratively, over a period of hundreds or even thousands of years.

Respect ancient wisdom. Respect ancient science.

Some holiday break updates. The back of the acoustic is not brown. It always photographs brown, but it’s actually a lot more red. The electric hasn’t been edited either, it’s super fucking orange. #justluthiershit #likeathugdo #damnitfeelsgoodtobeagangsta #happythanksgiving (at Roberto-Venn School) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqeJmljgee2gwI0mAMXg3S0bvHFr2uzyJ-OWKk0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1scp7apso2nf7

Splashed on some color today. When asked what kind of orange I was looking for, Master Steve-o answered for me with an ecstatic, “really fucking orange!” Goddamn right. Also, Arizona has turned my face into one of a homeless hipster.

Both pickups completed. My favorite part of the process so far. Going to be building and designing a lot of pickups in my future. #likeathugdo #damnitfeelsgoodtobeagangsta #justluthiershit #jasonlollartaughtmehowtobuildapickup (at Roberto-Venn School) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqDjICkA2MsEJmYohRmlyZ8F-PBQMOxPfwf4cU0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hzum0hqhggaf
