Imagine if that heavy fog you see once or twice a year was there every single day. Imagine if it wasn’t just a big wet cloud of condensation, but a big cloud of chemicals and fallout. This is life in Linfen, China. And the more we consume the more this cloud will consume us. It has come to a point now where we are all responsible for this. It isn’t China’s greediness; it’s all of our greediness. We have collectively decided that lower prices are worth a few lives and probably a few lives of future generations. We have chosen convenience over our health and it looks like there’s no turning back now.

This is one of the many reasons why I worked my ass off to get our Proletariat shirts 100% Made in America. No blood on my hands or yours…at least for your t-shirt wardrobe. People need to realize that business will do whatever we demand. If we all decided we want organically grown cotton, they will all switch because they have to survive. If you only buy Made in the USA products, manufacturing will come back. If you buy $200 dresses at Anthropologie, or a t-shirt at the Gap, no matter how cute you look…you are creating this cloud and possibly killing a Chinese kid. Rest well!

Richard Branson is my favorite billionaire. He always takes on his boyhood dreams with his money and seems like a really chill dude for someone who is running mad shit. Recently, he announced he will be building an underwater jetlike submarine to add to his fleet of weird vehicles. If you charter a trip on his luxury catamaran or reserve a spot on his private island you will also have the opportunity to rent out this sub for only $25k a week. I just hope they don’t drive anywhere near me because I will definitely pull my trunks down and let them see my sea monster while I drop a grundy. Talk about a memorable vaaction!

Here’s his boat and island. Unless you siphon money from a major corporation this is probably as close as you will ever get to either.

Holy Shit! Do we live in the future or what? A dude who names all his companies after people who haven’t gotten laid, built a freaking spaceship! After about 18 months of testing, Branson and his family will take the inaugural flight to outer space. Then Branson will allow his customers, who have paid $200,000 a ticket, to line his pockets with fresh, crispy, dough. Branson’s plan is to take regular commercial flight into space so you could travel from NYC to Tokyo in 3 hours! Congratulations people, this is huge.
