it’s the end of a very stupid era. who knew opening a restaurant with worse styling and food than a 90s Taco Bell was a bad business move?

Unlike Bored Apes, 90’s Taco Bells will always be a vibe.

Couple of years back I found a piece of ape-based street art on a corner in Cape Town. Can’t seem to upload it from phone right now but will do in morning
The imagery was hilarious at the time, and I think it’s improved since then (albeit possibly not with the original intention) as a result of the extremely-predictable crash of the insanity

the bored ape is a perfectly good cartoon ape! it’s inherently slightly amusing!
but being crypto bros, they couldn’t not bludgeon it into the ground

i fucking hate instagrammatron (and pretty much all the forceful intermediation with-extra-walled-gardening that facebook does) and on account of that I’ve never gotten around to asking the artist about it, but I’ve been curious about their intent/feeling in creating it. as well as some retrospect now that it’s over 2y on
