Linkin Park will perform and the conference will be hosted by David Arquette

But Linkin Park are at least meme teir. they need to find themselves a literal who.

Yo So dis here be uh tutorial on rolling joints. It's fine ass simple once you git da hang o' it. ah don' know how much chronic you use in joints; ah usually roll two zoots from uh benz (or dime bag). ah also use uh fair bit o' tobacco. So size iz variable.

Yeah, Irish wanted uh tutorial an' Dan wanted uh video tutorial, but fuq dat.

First things first, you need ta make uh roach. ah usually gank tips or somethin` from da swapmeet, or just cannibalise da green card from da back o' some long rizla (as above). Fold part o' it ova an' rip it off.

Place da card in da webbing between yo' thumb an' forefinger an' rub until it iz floppy.

Next you need ta take yo' rizla an' place da roach at whichever end you feel iz most comfortable. ah'm left-handed, so ah gots da roach on da left-hand side; it's easier ta roll.

Next you need ta git yo' tobacco.

Spread some along da rizla. You can use as much or as little as you please, just as long as its enough ta form uh snake down da rizla, simply ta he`p it burn. You could also mix it in wif da ground chronic--or grind it wif da chronic--an' then place da mixture on da rizla. Tobacco, however, ain't strictly necessary.

Next you place da chronic on da rizla. ah use two cards.

Now we's actually roll da zoot. Pick up da joint by da roach, pinching da rizla around it wif yo' thumb an' yo' forefinger ta make sho nahh chronic falls around it an' fucks up da roll.

Usin` yo' thumb an' forefinger on yo' free hand, pinch da rizla just above da chronic an' roll it into uh sausage shape. As you can (kinda) see here.

Tuck da rizla at da bottom o' da zoot around da roach.

an' then gently tuck in da rizla further along da joint.

Until finally da lengf o' da rizla iz tucked ova da sausage o' chronic.

Roll da zoot up until da end touches da gum o' da rizla.

Then lick da gum from halfway up, an' gentle stick it ta da paper, making sho da roll stays tight--especially around da roach--da whole tyme.

Then lick da bottom half o' da gum an' gently stick it down; ah find it's easiest ta do it while turning da zoot in muh motha fuckin hands. Then you gots yo' joint!

Now you just need ta finish it off. Find somethin` like da flat end o' uh pencil ta poke it down tightly.

an' dere you gots yo' zoot.

Now all you need ta do iz smoke it, muh motha fuckin bruddah Ya' dig?

Yo “You can smoke her…” da First Sergeant tells me. “Technically.”
we's’re standing on uh rooftop watching black smoke pillars rise from uh section o' da city where two o' muh motha fuckin teammates is taking machine gat fire. Below, da small cluster o' homes we's’ve taken ova iz taking sporadic fire as well. He hands me his rifle wif uh high powered scope an' says, “See fo' yo'self.”
It’s da 6-year-old beotch who gives me flowers.
we's page her da Flower beotch. She hangs around our combat outpost cuz we's give her candy an' hugs. She gives us flowers in return. What brothas else at da outpost knew (except fo' me until dat day) wuz dat she also carried weapons fo' insurgents. Sometimes during da midst o' uh firefight, she would carry ammunition across da street ta unknown assailants. According ta da Rules o' Engagement, we's could smoke her. nahh one ever did. Not even when da First Sergeant morbidly reassured dem on uh rooftop in da middle o' Iraq.
Other soldiers didn’t end up as lucky.
Sometimes dey would find themselves paired off against uh beotch or teenager intent on killing dem. So dey pulled da trigger. One o' sniper teams ah worked wif recounted an evening where he laid up uh pile o' niggas trying ta plant an IED. It wuz uh “turkey smoke” he told me laughing. But then he gots quiet an' said, “Eventually dey sent out uh beotch an' dis here dum kid.” ah didn’t need ta ax what happened. His voice said it all.
ah often wonder what would gots happened if da Flower beotch pointed uh rifle at me, but ah’m afraid ah already know. da thought didn’t matter anyway. dere wuz enough baggage from tours in Afghanistan an' Iraq dat made coming home uh place o' uncertainty, anger, an' confusion, not, as ah had been lead ta believe, uh warm celebration o' safety brace yo'self foo'!
Yo FITTING IN
“niggas only wants ta hear da gang o' Brothers stories. da one wif guts an' gusto! Not da one where you jam uh gat in an old beotch’s face or smoke uh kid.” ah pause then add, “peep around da room fo' uh second…”
Andy surveys da restaurant we's’re in fo' uh moment while ah lean in wif uh sardonic half smile.
“How many niggas can even relate ta what we's’ve been through? What would dey  hear about? How Starbucks iz giving away free lattes an' puppies dis here week? Or how uh soldier feels guilty cuz he pulled uh trigger, lost uh nigga, or did morally questionable things in war? Hell, ah wants ta hear 'boutthe latte giveaway…especially if it’s pumpkin spice.”
dis here eases da tension an' he smiles.
Andy an' ah feel like we's don’t fit in. we's met uh few years ago at da church where he werkz, an' where ah volunteer. o' da thousands o' niggas dat attend, we's is uh handful o' veterans in da congregation. It’s often few an' far between dat ah meet other veterans, an' those dat ah do know or gots met, typically end up running in da same circles.
Years ago Andy fought in da siege o' Fallujah. Readjusting ta normal life afta deployment didn’t happen fo' us. Instead, we's found ourselves overly angry, depressed, violent, an' drinking uh lot. we's couldn’t jive ta niggas 'boutwar or da cost o' it cuz, well, how do you jive 'boutmorally reprehensible things dat gots left uh bruise on yo' soul?
da guilt an' moral tension many veterans feel is not necessarily being dubbed as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) any longer, but Moral Injury. Moral Injury refers ta da emotional shame an' psychological damage incurred when uh soldier has ta do things dat violate they sense o' right an' wrong. Shooting uh beotch or child. Killing another human. Watching uh nigga die. Black humor an' laughing 'boutsituations dat would normally disgust dem.
cuz so few in America gots served, dey can nahh longer relate ta they peers, niggas, an' family fo' fear o' being viewed as some type o' monster, or lauded as uh hero when dey feel da things dey did wuz morally ambiguous or wrong given da nature o' da situations dey wuz involved in all ye damn hood ratz..
Yo WHY we's DON’T RELATE
we's is currently engaged in one o' da longest running wars in da history o' da United States. we's is entering our 15th year in Afghanistan, an' Iraq still has troops stationed in certain outposts. In World War II, 11.5% o' da nation served in four years. In Vietnam, 4.3% served in 12 years. Since 2001, only 0.45% o' our population has served in da Global War on Terror. Yet, during WWII, 10 million niggas wuz drafted, an' ova 2 million niggas wuz conscripted during Vietnam. Despite da lengf o' da Iraq an' Afghan Wars, dere has been nahh draft an' da burden has been borne by less than uh half percent o' da population wif repeated tours continually deteriorating da mental healf o' our troops sho 'nuff!
Yo da gap between da citizen an' da solider iz growing ever wider. Whereas in WWII da entire nation’s focus wuz on purchasing war bonds an' defeating da Nazi’s, this day’s populace iz quickly amused by da latest Kardashian scandal on TV. cuz da populace iz mo' concerned 'boutenjoying they freedoms an' going 'bouttheir day ta day lives, da veteran can feel like an outcast. As though nuttin' dey did mattered fo' uh country dat asked dem ta go.
dis here iz part o' da problem wif da alienation uh solider feels. niggas can quickly point out dat dey didn’t force dem ta volunteer fo' da military an' fight in uh war. dey could gots stayed home. da counter-point ta dat argument iz dat cuz we's gots transitioned ta an all-volunteer force, those dat is opposed should be thanking they lucky stars dat da volunteer troops is bearing dat burden as opposed ta havin` uh draft take place in which dey could be in da lottery. Additionally, regardless o' whether you’re Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, Communist, Liberal, Conservative, Conscientious Objector or Pacifist we's all sent da soldier overseas. cuz we's live in uh democracy, we's vote ta put niggas an' beotches in charge o' governing our affairs who send troops overseas. Though we's may gots voted fo' someone else or even opposed sending troops overseas, it do not change da fact dat we's gots put ourselves under da governance o' da United States. By living in any country in da world, you be submitting yo'self ta they governing body an' laws even if you don’t vote. Every country on earf has uh military o' some sort or defense in place, an' da lawmakers elected or dictators ruling send young niggas an' beotches ta fight in foreign lands, sometimes unjustly. By shirking responsibility, we's only alienate our soldiers mo'. da moral quagmires dey face on da battlefield only continue ta dump da weight o' shame an' guilt onto they shoulders while we's all enjoy da benefits o' passing da buck an' asking “whose fault iz it really?”
DISPOSABLE HEROES
On March 3, 1986, 11 years afta da end o' da Vietnam War, Metallica released they critically acclaimed album, Master o' Puppets. On da album, uh song entitled Disposable Heroes told uh story o' uh young nigga being used as cannon fodder in da midst o' war an' da terror dat enveloped him on da battlefield. Three years later, Metallica would go on ta release One, uh song 'bouta soldier who has lost all limbs an' waits helplessly fo' deaf. da song would go on ta win uh Grammy fo' bomb Metal Performance.
In an odd twist, bof songs is amazingly popular among members o' da United States military. During muh motha fuckin tyme at da John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center, we's had an entire platoon dat could practically sing every last lyric ta One. In Afghanistan an' Iraq, deez songs wuz on playlists ta git soldiers amped 'bfoe missions. we's sang songs 'boutbeing used by da populace ta die on they behalf an' coming home uh green as madness as dat sounds. we's sang those songs cuz dey felt true. an' da reason dey feel true iz cuz o' da conversation we's refuse ta gots as uh country.
Amy Amidon, uh Navy psychologist, stated in an interview regarding moral injury dat:
“Civilians is lucky dat we's still gots uh sense o' naiveté 'boutwhat da world iz like. da average American means well, but what dey need ta know iz dat deez [military] niggas an' beotches is seeing incredible evil, an' coming home wif dat weighing on dem an' not knowing how ta fit back into society.”
Most o' da tyme, like da conversation Andy an' ah had, niggas only wants ta hear da heroics. dey don’t wants ta listen ta what da war iz costing our sons an' daughters in regards ta mental healf an' dis here grows da gap wider. In order fo' our soldiers ta begin healing it’s going ta take society owning up ta da part dey played in sending our troops ta war. da niggas at home may not gots pulled da trigger, but dey asked da soldier ta go in they place. What many don’t realize iz dat uh 2004 study found dat “grief ova losing uh combat buddy wuz comparable, mo' than 30 years later, ta dat o' bereaved uh spouse whose partner had died in da previous six months.” da soul wounds we's experience is much greater an' require da society as uh whole ta come alongside us as opposed ta pointing us ta da VA.

In most other cultures, soldiers had purification rights when returning home from war. deez rites occurred in uh broad spectrum o' warriors dat ranged from da Roman Centurion ta da Navajo ta da Medieval Knight. Perhaps most coo' iz dat soldiers returning home from da Crusades wuz instructed ta observe uh period o' purification dat involved da Christian church an' they community. Even though da Church had sanctioned da Crusades, dey viewed taking another life as morally wrong an' damaging ta da souls o' they knights. In this day’s era, Churches typically put veterans on stage ta praise they heroics or speak o' uh great battle dey’ve overcome while drawing spiritual parallels fo' they congregation, but dey don’t jive 'boutwar an' da moral inequality we's’re asking our soldiers ta bear on they behalf.
Dr. Jonathan Shay, da clinical psychologist who coined da term Moral Injury, says dat in order fo' da soldier an' society ta find healing we's mus' come together. He states we's mus' come alongside da soldier an' confess:
“What you did wuz done in our name, at our request. we's cannot bear yo' physical wounds, or psychological scars, but we's can bear da moral responsibility wif you. yo' transgressions in war, dey is our transgressions, too. we's confess dis here together, an' seek forgiveness together.”
Whether you be opposed ta or agree wif war, what we's mus' remember iz dat deez is our fellow brothers an' sisters, sons an' daughters, flesh an' blood, who is desperate ta reconnect wif uh world dey feel nahh longer understands dem. we's mus' try an' find common ground together. we's’re not asking you ta agree wif our actions, but he`p us bear da burden o' carrying dem on behalf o' da country you live in. uh staggering 22 veterans take they lives every day, an' ah can guarantee you, part o' dat iz cuz o' da citizen/soldier divide.
But what if it didn’t gots ta be dat way?
What if we's could he`p our niggas an' beotches in uniform bear da weight o' dis here burden dey carry? As Memorial Day approaches, maybe we's rethink just exactly what war costs us an' what we's’ve asked o' those who’ve gone on our behalf. In da end, nahh one in they right mind wants war. we's wants peace. an' nahh one wants it mo' than da soldier. As General Douglas McArthur eloquently put it:
“da soldier above all other niggas prays fo' peace, fo' he mus' suffer an' bear da deepest wounds an' scars o' war.” otay buh-weet

Should've gone to LA dude. Cleaner, nicer people. You can go out to the desert and shoot guns.

How did you like NY though?

It was alright. People there are fucking mental though, especially black people for some reason. I was really only there for sight seeing.

Maybe I'm just too accustomed to the dozy Scottish lifestyle.

LA and New York are the two biggest cultural wastelands in America.

I saw the aftermath of some dude drowning at the beach once. Whole crowd of people were swimming out there to try and save him. Don't think he made it.

Also, this is probably the most awe inspiring disaster footage I've ever seen:

YouTube

"A guy died. I don't think he made it."

Fuck off.

Kiss my ass, idiot

Why do you keep trying to start this pointless drama with me? I'm really not interested in this.

I don't actually think that Cleganebowl is going to be this season. The champion of the faith is probably going to be Tommen. Based Sparrow is going to convice Margaery to get Tommen's dick wet and produce an heir, he is then going to convince Tommen to be the champion of the faith, saying Cersei won't actually accept and that the gods are on his side or some shit. Based Sparrow is now in a win/win situation: Either Cersei accepts the trial by combat, killing Tommen, and leaving Based Sparrow in custody of the only heir, or Cersei declines the trial by combat and is executed, thus giving Based Sparrow direct control of the Iron Throne.

Cleganebowl is definitely going to happen eventually, because why the fuck would they bring back Sandor in the first place? But it's definitely not going to happen this season, because Based Sparrow is too smart for that.

I just realized it's been half a season since we've seen bad pussi. They better fucking not show up in the next few episodes.

Leaks say they will show up before the end of this season. Probably next episode.

FUCK.
