not in an obsessive looksmaxxing way, just as a nice thing to add to your routine. i have been doing morning and night and the facial/jaw pain i’ve been experiencing for months is less intense lol. not a crazy revelation that this works, because of course it does. but i recommend it :)

you really dont need a gua sha tool you can literally just use your hands. LOOK UP A MUSCLE CHART THOUGH! and only massage in the direction of flexion.

shit feels dope. I tend to hold my anxiety in my hands so I like to keep them loose by having a massage tool nearby. Some people have a fidget toy but I have a cork ball. I dont really do the face massage stuff its not my thing but love a good shoulder / neck self-massage. my guasha is the Goop-iest thing I own.

you probably know them already. i am from the home of Minutemen, beautiful sunny San Pedro, the port of LA and let me tell you... pedro does extreme pride really well and that is especially true when it comes to this band (and in this case the pride is absolutely warranted). george hurley built a fence behind my driveway for us. i played bass in his drum room when i was like 11 lol. yes i am flexing these things because it's awesome and he's an extremely kind man. mike watt is around town sometimes and he comes off as very unapproachable and cranky which is also awesome and funny. ultimately he is also nice though.
there are still lots of blue-collar middle-aged (to quite old) people in rock bands in pedro going really hard. one of the biggest blessings of my life is having grown up here (despite the town's issues and generally freakish nature) because of the music scene and support from older musicians. minutemen are our (humble) stars, and i'm grateful for them, and i'm grateful for the many rock/punk/jazz/blues/noise/freaky sound art people in my town.
"A Wailing Of A Town: An Oral History of Early San Pedro Punk And More 1977-1985" is a great book, i was super pumped when it came out and everyone who was around at the time had things to say about it/things to expand on.
i have love for this place but i still am dying to move away. btw. don't get it twisted... i am getting out of town or i die.
