"When you're 95, one hundred years old, you'll look back throughout your life, you won't think... I wish I had a better phone...."
You’ll recall, four years ago, when livid surf fans blamed three-time world champion Gabriel Medina’s exit from that year’s Quiksilver Pro on his friendship with Brazil’s right-wing president Jair Bolsonaro.
Medina, who seemed to have the Quiksilver Pro’s balls on the point of his knife exited in a dull quarter-final with a sub-ten point two-wave total.
His fans, of which there are many millions, blamed the controversial Bolsonaro, with whom Medina and his guy-pal, the soccer player Neymar, had been trading video messages.
Now that the tinsel has fallen off Bolsonaro’s Christmas tree, losing the country’s election to leftish rival Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, although he has yet to accept defeat and remains in the presidential residence in Brasília, Medina has turned to song as a balm to the loss of a friend, mentor etc.
In a poorly tended back yard, although a little lawn seed and water would quickly amend things, Medina sits with his sister Sophie, the pair crooning as Medina adroitly handles a three-quarter sized acoustic guitar.
“It’s not the best voice and we’re not the best musicians, but it’s the best feeling, being with the one you love,” writes the three-time champ. “When you’re 95, one hundred years old, and you’ll look back throughout your life, you won’t think… I wish I had a better phone…. I either want to spend more time on the internet, or I want to spend more times at work or sleeping. Won’t be any of those things It will be… I wish I could spend more time with the people I love. @sophiamedina always together my little one who’s grown up. Hahaha ❤️ 🥰 I love you so much.”

Previously, Bolsonaro had said he faces three alternatives for his future: prison, death or victory in next year’s presidential election.
Exciting times.
cry is free, bolso goin’ be locked tho…
2 out of 3 ain’t bad….
Will Brazil under Lula’s rule be more aligned with US? I though Bolsonaro’s neutral position on the Ukraine war quite surprising. Will Lula keep neutrality or join US and EU on the sanctions. I am very curious about this shit. Also, Derek (and Chas), how come you haven’t profit from click bait controversial #teamputin vs #teamzelensky surf adjacent articles?
Don’t feel bad Bexy; You still have Victor Orban to jerk off to. Plus that nice lady in Italy who’s really (like really really) into Mussolini.
He’s done. For good.
Oh yeah he got smashed.
Yourboy hasnt let go since the 80s.
Isnt there one other cunt on the left that has half a brain over there?
Guilherme Boulos is that guy.
Majority of people don’t like dictators, imagine that.
Well they just got one w Lulu, imagine that. Brazil is toast. Bye bye freedom. Hello Communism.
Half of them deserve it
you must be considering moving back to the the UK as Boris/Liz/Rishi need you, I mean lets face it , they are the future for you and ah , all the other old non-changelings!!
I am pretty sure you don’t know what communism actually is.
Anyone witha half a brain knows…Mao showed the world what true communism is.
Have you looked around? Many barely have one brain cell let alone half a whole damn brain.
I have spent time in Cuba. I should say something more akin to the dictatorial globalist agenda that is unfolding to make myself clear. The unelected WEF is running the show. Are they benevolent? Tell me. Is the WEF, the WHO, the UN benevolent, righteous and for your well being? Tell me.
They like half dead grandads
I think we will all regret not spending more time reading bexy’s comments!
I keep them brief for the Irish and their many bastards

Sorry, no, I struggle enough to care who actually wins a event let alone give a fuck who lost!
Medina who? I mean if you weren’t at the Olympic Games than who cares?
Anyway at least I understand nowwhy the left core surf media hated the guy ( what’s his name) ?
Kelly?
I hope for prison, with a slow and progressive dementia.
Of course… he’ll gets help with bathroom things with his musculous jail partner…
I think your dementia has started allready, good luck with your prison desire.
haha, maybe Bolly and Donny could share a cell?
Lulu can fill them in on the deets.
I was talking brain cells , the deplorables share a cell,LOL!!
Funny as a cell rapist
you must try and give that up .
Oh Bexy boy… don’t cry!
You can go along with him, to scratch and still squeeze the acne from his back!
Just watch out for the big fella black cell inmate… but he’ll smile with free lunch and dinner!
Noone cries more than Brasilian men.
Oh there’s one that cries more…
Seu namorado

He should make a punk rock song about how Filipe is scared of Chopes.
If he doesn’t do it maybe Makuakai can do one on that little eukalaly he likes to strum. It could be a secret song at the end of the next album I won’t listen to.
