FULL BOOTY COVERAGE

We know well that there a some gentlemen that prefer some full seat coverage when it comes their gear.

Usually, I have found, in having conversations with them, this preference usually has more to do with function and comfort versus any fashion preference.

Some may remember my co-host on the podcast (yup still in hiatus) liked a brief with a FULL seat and I would tease him about it. However, this extra time we have had at home lately; I have been spending more time at my desk, and my rear end likes a little more coverage on this cheap shit chair I am sitting on!

What about you? What have you go to say about your coverage?

Answer a few questions in our survey for gentlemen that prefer FULL BOOTY coverage, won’t you?

LEGENDARY: Are You Watching?

Dying to know if anyone reading this is watching LEGENDARY on HBO / CRAVE?

I wanted to wait for at least 4 episodes in the bank before I started…because I always need to start off with a good binge.

So far only the 2 first episodes have aired…but I want to know if anyone is watching. What ya think? Any favourites? I know I have my eye on a couple cuties; but I ain’t saying WHO….yet!

REBOOT: THE WHITE HOUSE

What is it every HELP DESK keeps telling us to try?

Turn it off.

Then back on again.

The bottom photo I was saving for Pride Month 2020 kick off here at TURNIP STYLE.

I remember how happy I was to see photos of the White House lit up in the Pride Rainbow that summer. I was excited for my LGBTQ+ Community in the US. I was hopeful.

Well fuck. That didn’t last very long.

I wanted to use this photo and write a cute little inspirational story about 2020 being the year to look back and LEARN from our successes and stumbles and work to get to a place where love did win and we could leave hate and division behind us.

Now I just sit here. I write a few words. Delete them. Nothing sounds right. Nothing feels right.

I often say the wrong thing at the best of times; never mind when I am this sad, angry and broken. All I have left to say from the bottom of my very broken heart is; I hear you, I see you and YOU matter to me.

Let’s all TURN UP AGAINST HATE & RACISM.

HEY GOOGLE: NO NEWS IS NOT GOOD NEWS!

It was Friday afternoon; I was at my kitchen sink washing my hands before unpacking and putting away my groceries and I threw out to the “atmos” that is my apartment;

Hey Google, BBC Minute.

15 seconds later (yes it takes 15 seconds at my house to spool up 1 minute of news…) I was treated to a 60 second blast of news from the BBC Minute Podcast.

Later Friday evening, while back in the kitchen cleaning up after dinner again I threw out into the “atmos”;

Hey Google, what’s the latest news?

The response, not one that I was expecting.

Sorry, I can’t get the news right now.

Cutting ahead; this is the response I get from my Google Home in my bedroom and Google Minis from the; kitchen, office/studio and bathroom. Zero news all weekend.

Messaged a couple friends that also have Google Home or Mini in their homes; same response for both of them.

Found this tread on reddit; however, no one has any solutions. Just the same problem I have been experiencing.

I am in Canada and I have had this exact same problem for 2-3 days now.
My news sources are still set correctly in the settings, but when I ask Google to play the news / tell me the news / what’s the news, she replies with instructions on how to play the news (the same phrases I just said) OR she will say “I can’t read the news right now” …. It’s driving me insane!
matthewpilon //reddit

I don’t like to speculate, out loud, my imagination is too crazy for that. However, it is extremely interesting the timing for this service “outage” and the current events, news and information coming out of the United States is overwhelming right now.

Right now, no news is certainly not good news.

Thoughts? Tell us below.

WATER

We often take it for granted. It just is there at our fingertips. Running. Clean. Cold when we want to drink it. Hot when we want to bathe.

We also all know that humans are made up mostly of water and yet many do not know that they are running on or very close to dehydration. Usually, and this is going to sound judgmental, yet, it holds some truth, the people that understand water are the ones “we” make fun.

“THOSE” people are the ones that have the fancy water bottles.

Some of “THOSE” people even have fruits or strange leaves floating in their water and we all make fun of them for being “weird”.

Well “weird” or not, “those” folks are doing it right.

We need water.

Sure we may all “drink” a lot of fluids. Coffee, tea carbonated sweetened beverages, and cocktails do not count. (I tried)

The “professionals” recommend that adults drink 2 litres of water a day. That is a half-gallon, 64 fluid ounces or 8 x 8oz of water a day. But, you may need more. Rumor also has it that drinking a glass of water as soon as you wake up, is the perfect way to BOOT UP your system in the morning.

Sweating is the most obvious way we lose our water. It is also the best way we cleanse our skin. From the inside out. Sweat. Shower. Repeat. (Bring a friend when you repeat the process, it is a lot more fun then)

Sweating keeps your skin looking healthy young and fresh. Don’t be afraid to sweat.

PORNO JOCKSTRAP

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text el_class=””]So word around some parts, is that the thin waistband jockstrap is outselling other jockstraps and has become the hottest seller recently.

That shot my eyebrow way up; some may remember my love for thin waistband jockstraps, when I told the story, repeatedly (during the podcast days), of my first jockstrap.

I love hearing or being involved in the discussions, some men have around jockstrap waistbands. What is a proper jockstrap or not? Some feelings run pretty strong.

After getting my junk in a few jockstraps of varied waistband persuasions; I will come out and say it, “all jockstraps are sexy.”

My love for thin waistband jockstraps is not going anywhere. There is always a favourite child. Right? What do you think about that?[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][gsf_gallery columns=”2″ columns_gap=”col-gap-10″ images=”3432,3431,3430,3429″][vc_btn title=”THIN WAISTBAND PORNO JOCKSTRAP” style=”outline-custom” outline_custom_color=”#596f62″ outline_custom_hover_background=”#596f62″ outline_custom_hover_text=”#ffffff” shape=”square” align=”center” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.debriefboys.com%2Fcollections%2Fjockstraps%2Fproducts%2Fthin-waistband-jock%3Fvariant%3D31358245830712%26ref%3Dturnip|target:_blank”][vc_column_text]

PORNO JOCKSTRAP

I bet you are wondering where that part came from? Well, in my reading it seems that the thin waistband jockstrap became popular in porn in the 80s.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

EXERCISE YOUR SUN PROTECTION FACTOR
WOW – We have been issued our first heat event of the season; from today through to Wednesday. Ain’t it the shits we are in lock-down?

Nonetheless, I am seeing a lot of peeps on their balconies (as I am on my balcony from time to time) and in their yards; all laying there as naked as they want to be, soaking up the sun.

Just while you are out there – make sure you are going extra on the SPF.

If you are going to be following quarantine guidelines and make it out of this pandemic CORONA VIRUS FREE – please, don’t let cancer be waiting for you at the end of the ride.

Make sure you are following best practices when you are applying your sunscreen. Exercise your SPF to the fullest.
1. Apply your first layer of sunscreen about 30 minutes before you venture outside. Make sure you get all the spots (burning the tops of your ears I do NOT recommend). This allows the sunscreen and your skin to get to know each other and BIND to give you a more solid protection.
2. Re-apply every 2 hours UNLESS you have been swimming or working out and sweating. Then you really need to re-apply the sunscreen immediately.
3. Make sure you are drinking enough water.
Cheers.

ERMIS LINE BY MODUS VIVENDI
The new Modus Vivendi Ermis line boasts stylish swimwear that sits low on the hips (a huge turn on for many) and a stripped pattern, inspired by Hermes’ sandal wings, on the back.

Fast drying material, of course, means that this sexy swimwear goes from pool deck and laps to lunch on the lanai or cocktails on the beach, effortlessly. Stylish. Sexy. Sophisticated.
Internal drawstrings finish of the waistband to keep lines crisp. However, fret not, the strings are long enough to drape outside, as one should. Strings out boys!

One can definitely appreciate the Greek influence here aside from the Wings of Hermes; the crisp contrast of Blue and White will be sure to catch every eye.

It bears repeating. Stylish. Sexy. Sophisticated. The entire collection is well thought out and offers you some sexy mix-match combinations that are perfect for that weekend away.

Visit Modus Vivendi today to shop the Ermis Line. Do not forget to SNAP the STRAP.

HOW’S YOUR HAIRCUT
Welcome to HOWZURHED – A chat with TURNIPHED. A discussion or chat about what is going on in TURNIPHED’S ‘hed’. This is a new combination of a few “projects” (THE POOL IS CLOSED) I have had over the years at TURNIP STYLE. You will find written pieces here of course, follow #howzurhed on the SOCIALS and when it comes back you will be able to enjoy HOWZURHED segments in the upcoming podcast.

Let’s jump in shall we?

Doesn’t it just give you the shits, errr I mean the giggles, when you are watching Legally Blond 2, released in 2003, during COVID-19 PANDEMIC LOCKDOWN 2020, and you hear the following line.

IF WE LET THOSE THAT SPEAK FOR US COMPROMISE OUR VOICE…THEN THIS COUNTRY IS IN FOR A REALLY BAD HAIRCUT.
ELLE WOODS – LEGALLY BLOND 2 (2003)

We all know that it is easy to take words of yesteryear and apply an understanding to the reference or meaning that suits us. You can see that I chose to do that with the graphic used in the SNAP SHOT both here and on the SOCIALS.

But let’s just put that aside for a moment; there is a strong message in that speech regardless of the focus. During that scene, Elle Woods is addressing this House of Representatives (I think?) and she gives a speech with the above quoted passage, which is sage advice for almost any advocacy.

She speaks of getting a “freak by chance” appointment at the fanciest pretty-beauty-salon there is. As she is there, taken in by all the wonder and splendor of her surroundings, Elle fails to realize what is being done to her hair. Wrong products, colour and cut.

Yet, bamboozled by the glitz and glamour (LOOK OVER THERE!) she leaves with out saying a word.

I just let you take from that what you will.

Cheers

There are 3 things I have taken to heart and I try and focus on. 3 things that I am trying to apply to my life.
1. The only person you can always count on to speak up for you, is you.
2. When you find others that are speaking the same message; make sure that you are directing your message effectively, in order to get the right response. (No point in complaining to your mechanic about your bad haircut. They won’t be able to fix it. And if they offer…RUN!)
3. Start keeping the “when I grow up” promises that you made to yourself when you were a kid. (The reasonable ones! You still need to clean your room!)
Now, I am in no way making any comment about any of your Quarantine-Self-Barbering that you have been undertaking in the past weeks. In fact, I have been overjoyed seeing how many of you surprise yourself with what you can achieve when you put your mind to it.

Take care
