When random boys call me “Daddy” I want to warn them: You are barking at the wrong tree kiddo. I am more like an irresponsible uncle. All the fun, absolutely no responsibility and questionable life choices. Happy Fathers Day to the real Daddies out there! 🏳️‍🌈❤️🌈

So my loves, today we commemorate the brave unarmed Zacapoaxtla indigenous people of Mexico beating the tar out of Napoleon III’s army. A reminder that your courage, determination and heart can change the world ❤️

I was interviewed by National Geographic about the Mexican folk origins, and deep spiritual significance of these quirky clay figurines. “Your chia pet’s roots are deeper than you think”. Learn about ‘The Secret History of Your Chia Pet’ in the April 2026 issue.

Learned a lot about canes last night, at Seattle’s Gentleman’s Impact Group! From “Nursery” to “Dragon” canes, these beauties go from sensation to real punishment. Have you tried them? Would you?!
