Dear Tumblr
If you’re going to go down, you might as well blame it on an imaginary animal like Twitter did with their infamous Fail Whale. I’ve taken the liberty of creating this animal for you:
Please use it.
Please oh please.
Because surfing 40 foot waves at Jaws isn’t hardcore, why not do it at night?
My blood is still boiling from connecting with a Delta flight on the way home from Bali - we didn’t know they charged for surfboards and spend US$400 getting our boards from Bangkok to Seattle. Fucking cunts at Delta, I hate them so much and hope their business collapses.
But this is a great comparison on what airlines charge for surfboards. Our next trip to Bali I’m flying aussie airlines so luckily will only have to pay $50 - it will cost more to get my board from Seattle to LA than the rest of the whole trip.
Invaluable for any travelling surfer.

Could you get a boat full of anything cuter?

Timelapse - a year in Norway.
Seattle feels a bit like that - really clearly defined seasons with major changes across all of them, at least from seeing summer, autumn and winter…
