๐ ๐ฎ๐ฒ๐๐๐ฟ๐ผ has released rap albums, gotten Drew Barrymore high, drag raced Michelle Rodriguez, and had his finger bitten off in the first season of HBOโs ๐๐ฆ๐ด๐ต๐ธ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ญ๐ฅ, but wonโt admit any of that in real life. Striving to be better and suspiciously bored in the middle of his 5th or 6th SAG AFTRA strike, and cynically against the performative or cliche, he can be found either at The Offbeat or Cuevita when heโs not eating bugs on the L.A. River bike path, or inhaling the vape pens, losing at dominoes 25 miles somewhere from his house.
