Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels, doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with
00:00:06.760
noodles, wild geese that fly with a moon on their wings, these are a few of my favorite
00:00:18.320
It was the last one I got when I was 21 years old.
00:00:21.260
It's really not that bad of a tattoo and it has a cool story I can tell people.
00:00:28.880
When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I'm feeling sad, I simply remember my favorite
00:00:45.960
I had to get surgery on my broken elbow and ruptured tricep tendon and it created this nasty
00:00:52.660
So the tail of this Japanese dragon connects from the bottom of this scar.
00:00:56.820
I hate this tattoo because I was on Percocet when I got it because it took 8 hours long.
00:01:01.820
Every time I look at it, I'm reminded of how I cheated to get it done.
00:01:05.480
I used to joke around and tell girls that I got in a motorcycle accident, but the truth
00:01:09.340
is I was wasted on Halloween night freshman year of college and jumped over a fence, landing
00:01:15.660
Definitely not my proudest moment in life, but it is a reminder to never live with regret.
00:01:20.960
There's just no reason that exists to justify living with regret.
00:01:24.960
Not only does regret solve nothing, but I'm fearful of it because it's the state of living
00:01:47.140
Without being dramatic, this broken elbow was one of the most devastating blows of my
00:01:51.280
life because at the time I was taking the gym more seriously than I ever had in my life.
00:01:59.360
I was going out with my friends four nights a week and doing better with women than I ever

00:02:03.640
But after my elbow hit the grass like a WWE wrestler, I was out of commission for months.
00:02:08.920
I lost 20 pounds immediately and I didn't have health insurance.
00:02:12.260
So for four weeks, I went to class with an arm that couldn't bend stuck inside my hoodie
00:02:16.720
pocket like a do-it-yourself sling, praying that it was just a sprain.
00:02:21.240
Later on, the pain got so bad, my right hand literally couldn't use a pencil.
00:02:27.020
Yeah, I should have went to the doctor, but it was the Breaking Bad situation where I didn't
00:02:32.440
want to pay for hospital bills without insurance on top of my student loans.
00:02:36.040
Being unable to go to the gym and lift for that long had me lose so much weight.
00:02:39.440
I remember my film professor made a comment about how skinny I was in front of the whole
00:02:44.420
I was so upset after class, I went up to him and said, don't talk about my weight.
00:02:48.000
But I hit the lottery when a month later while playing for the school soccer team,
00:02:51.560
somebody slide tackled me and guess where I landed?
00:02:54.860
I was rushed to the hospital and they did an MRI scan, finding a ruptured tricep tendon
00:02:59.640
and a broken elbow that happened during the school soccer game.
00:03:03.480
Take a wild guess who was now liable for the $30,000 of hospital bills, surgery, and physical
00:03:09.460
That story helps cement the idea that everything does happen for a reason.
00:03:13.260
A six-year-old boy needs to first put his fingertip on the hot stove before he never does
00:03:18.380
Now, I never get so drunk that I jump over a fence and have to pay $30,000 in hospital
00:03:23.400
But also, in every crisis, there's opportunity.

I don't just look at his arm and see stupidity.

00:03:27.920
It's a reminder that in a way, I was able to get back the $30,000 the school system stole

The funny thing about Picasso is you think sometimes that he was alive thousands of years
00:03:47.720
ago, but I think 50 years ago, Papa Picasso was still alive.
00:03:51.320
I think the ultimate challenge for my 20s is going to be shifting away from social media
00:04:07.860
and all the politics that I've got myself involved in to be able to make what I really
00:04:13.540
I think we've yet to see an artist come directly out of the social media world, and I want to
00:04:19.640
When I was streaming the other night, my community started saying that art is liberal and gay.
00:04:24.640
In streaming, I've cultivated an audience that shares little to no interest with me
00:04:28.980
besides UFC and all the dude activities that are popular in media.
00:04:33.520
Most of the people that watch my streams only like movies like The Joker, Fight Club, The
00:04:39.580
I spend so much time in galleries and museums because nothing else instantly gives me so
00:04:45.500
As I get older, I come to realize that there's really nothing more uninteresting than talking
00:04:51.180
Many men are afraid to discuss anything else or step foot in a place like this because
00:04:56.920
art is supposed to expose and highlight our vulnerabilities.
00:05:01.760
I love streaming, but part of the reason I hate it is because you end up becoming a jukebox
00:05:07.080
for people who want to hear the same talking points over and over again.
00:05:11.060
Especially when your audience is 98% male, they want to hear discussions about women and self-improvement
00:05:17.000
so that listening to you feels like they're progressing, but most of them never apply any
00:05:23.740
Sometimes streaming now feels like being a seven-year-old rock star who's playing hits
00:05:29.500
I'm beginning to understand why bands like Radiohead refuse to play their most famous songs
00:06:04.700
The first one was really good, but you need to weigh your options.
00:06:07.580
I feel like Asian Harvey Weinstein without the allegations.
00:06:23.880
Just spoke with a PR lady here and good meeting.
00:06:29.720
To get uncancelled, all the people in entertainment who have dodgy whatever allegations, the only
00:06:35.660
way to be reintroduced to society is to make something so dope that they forget.
00:06:41.100
I unironically also think that the suit is going to help me get uncancelled.

I stream on Cake, and I'm on top of a fucking roof right now.
