Otoh, it makes them sweeter

I started with fire before I ever really knew I wanted to be a performer, it just seemed fun, and things moved from there. My first prop was staff.

But a lot of stuff happened over the years and I hardly spin any more, other than at said retreat. Ok the flip side, I’ve carved out a name for myself as a sideshow performer doing dangerous and grotesque things. Bed of nails, blockhead, mental floss, butterfly knives, stapling, etc. But my expertise is fire, so I tend to always do that when the venue allows.

Fun fact, I invented two fire eating moves :) One is a split tongue torch hold, the other I named a black hole sun

Sword swallowing too. My friends do it but I’ve heard the term “perforated stomach” one too many times

Biden: “Israel has every right to extend its borders as biblically dictated…”

Fire breathing

For context I’m a professional fire & sideshow performer. I have almost a decade of experience and am fire safety lead for a large fire arts retreat. But the name of the game is risk mitigation and fire breathing is too risky for my taste despite its popularity.

If you go on Wikipedia and type in fire breather, the second result is Fire Breather’s Pneumonia. I also personally know many people who have gotten large facial burns or have had to retire due to lung problems caused by excessive fire breathing.

The risks are technically still there with fire eating, which is one of my main skills, but I mitigate it by limiting my exposure and taking breaks. There’s also significantly less liquid fuel involved.

Trump is straight up trying to kill Americans. He is Russia’s most dangerous bioweapon

I expect SCROTUS to overturn this by saying Americans have the right to lead contaminated water, and if they don’t like it they can buy Nestle™ distilled water

Coincidentally, all the conservative justices will be taking a 6 month long all expenses paid cruise around the world

Now?

As a NYer, I would love to eventually have a mayor that doesn’t make me actively root for the FBI

That would probably make his ratings shoot up the way this country is going

They worship Jesus as their idol but Jesus had literally none of those traits

And half the planet will die as a result, either through genocide or nuclear escalation

Ok but who’s actually stunned by him

Because the Republican party is a party of suffering. They get off to it

Each year, sacrifice the 5 richest billionaires and distribute their estate to the public fund. Bam, so many problems immediately solved.

I do honestly think empathy would be more common if access to psychedelic mushrooms was legal

Which is why it will never happen

Fuck that. Yeah it means you can stay out later Tuesday, but you can’t do jack shit Wednesday knowing that Thursday is coming up. I’d rather have another Saturday than another Sunday if that makes sense.

Trump supporters don’t care, they’re happy to pay the Trump tax as long as the “right” people are being hurt/killed/displaced

Idiocracy was a documentary

If you hate the parents, something that makes noise
