My wife and I finally got to see Joker the other night and it was – as billed – UH-MAZING! I’d seen the initial images of Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker months ago and I was skeptical since he didn’t look menacing enough.

The Rising Seas Wetsuit (video)
This is a fascinating product from @vissla and @surfirder that sadly makes complete sense. As the ocean becomes more polluted, those of us that love SCUBA, surfing, etc will need to protect ourselves. Surfing particularly is known for some pretty serious illnesses depending on where you surf. Obviously, it’s not just the ocean. In Colorado we’ve seen the rise of the “blue...
