Did you know @Jarritos has their own line of gummies? Little perk we gave away in the discord a few weeks ago! Some swag packs.

Just got laid off from my IRL job, the runway ran out us before we could get the sales to raise more funds. Longest job of my career happened to be at a startup. The food industry is brutal to get into, our product was dope, we just finally ran out of time after 5 years to get the sales needed to thrive. Not my first rodeo being laid off, but I can say, the race is on to find another job now before life becomes difficult. I'm a staff level mechanical engineer, especially strong in mechanical systems, in the San Francisco Bay Area, if anyone has leads, I'd be grateful. A strong network is the fastest way to be hired again.

I lost my mum to breast cancer 2 years ago, and it’s one of the most devastating experiences of my life. To cancer research, for continuing the fight. To those who have lost loved ones to cancer. To those currently fighting cancer. To those sitting beside a loved one in a hospital bed, praying for a miracle. To those who have beaten cancer and continue to inspire hope. To those who are silently grieving, trying to find the strength to carry on. My heart goes out to you all. 💖 Cancer doesn’t just affect the person diagnosed; it affects entire families. Losing my mum taught me how painful that reality is. I pray for more breakthroughs, better treatments, and a future where fewer families have to experience this kind of loss. Until then, we keep fighting, we keep supporting, and we keep hoping. 🙏🏾

This riding season has been pretty light, unfortunately, and now it’s time to put her back in the garage for the long sleep. There’s always next season to focus on the shred 🤙 🍂🍁🍂

Divorce. Divorce is incredibly hard on kids. People often say, “Wait until the kids are older. Don’t ruin their childhood. They need both parents.” And they’re right. But when two people no longer love each other and can’t find their way back to one another, divorce may eventually become inevitable. My parents stayed together throughout my entire childhood. They separated when I was 20 after my dad left, and they later divorced. They had been married for over 30 years. Watching my family fall apart, seeing the childhood home I had known for 25 years eventually get sold, and witnessing the downward spiral it sent my mom into are things that still break my heart to this day. The truth is, there is no age when divorce becomes painless for a child. No matter how old you are, there will be hurt, grief, and a sense of loss. I absolutely believe marriage should be taken seriously and that people should genuinely try to work through the hard times. But there’s a difference between encouraging someone to fight for their marriage and shaming them for choosing to leave. And honestly, even though my parents waited until I was an adult, a part of me wishes they had divorced when I was younger rather than having to watch everything they spent decades building fall apart later in life.

Things have been rough lately 😔 My dad is 79 and Parkinson’s is just destroying him. At first it wasn’t too bad, he’s kept active but needed to start using a walker after he broke his first hip 4 years ago. And then a year after that his other hip. Each time under general anesthesia for surgery, his brain never recovered. It’s not Alzheimer’s but Parkinson’s has its own form of dementia and it’s only getting worse. I once called him the smartest person I knew, and now he’s not even sure which way the bathroom is in his own house. It’s heartbreaking to watch. And now he’s had another fall, fractured his femur and is in the hospital again. His delusions are worsened 100x by being in the strange environment and I can’t imagine how scary it must be to have your wits slowly slip away from you. I’m here every night with him just to help him feel safe until he finally falls asleep. He’s the one suffering from this terrible disease but I feel so depleted and exhausted just trying to guide him through, knowing he’ll never actually make it out, but just slip slowly away from everything that makes him him. I pray for the 10 million people around the world suffering through Parkinson’s. And I pray for their family and caregivers having to watch their loved ones be taken from them slowly, piece by piece. This photo was only taken 7 years ago but now it feels like it was from a different life. I’m devastated to be losing my dad this way 💔

21 years ago, this little girl was born. She cried and cried until I washed her hair. Then. She opened up her little eyes and saw her daddy for the first time
