I am guessing about like the 1994 Mexican peso crisis?

Fixed it for you.

So, like, some kind of crazy Cuban Buckee’s?

Agree with ya.

The unfortunate consequence of losing someone's faith is that you no longer get the benefit of the doubt. It takes a lot to regain it.

Hey, I like things the way they are, too. But people voted for radical and unknowable change. The populace was given ineffectual and increasingly histrionic warnings that fell on deaf ears. And now no one can do anything about it until things get bad enough to result in a groundswell of support for a return to the way things were, if it ever arises. Trump breaking the economy may very well happen. It has yet to happen. What is an undeniable fact is that too few people give a shit about the hypotheticals for them to carry any weight. People will need to see and feel pain in their lives for these messages to resonate in their mind. Here's to it being not as bad as feared around here.

I am personally kind of tired of this kind of "speculative scenarios wherein voters faces are eaten by the leopard they voted for". Along with the "This soundbite destroys person X" and "unnamed sources close to the President say" items that are thrown around here like they are proven facts. What this lady describes could very well prove to be accurate, but right now it's just worst-case conjecture about how Trump's deportation plans will be executed. The jury of the court of public opinion registered its antipathy to this type of messaging during the election. All it does is scare A) scare the shit out of people who are already scared or B) make you seem unhinged to the people that need to won over to a counter-MAGA movement. For most voters, the general idea that "anyone in this country illegally should be deported" is not in and of itself a bad thing. Like I don't categorically disagree with that. Do I have a lot of confidence the incoming administration will carry that out justly with a scalpel vs a hatchet? No. But this is not a tangible and real concern for a distracted populace who voted for an economic breather. Events need to be allowed to play out. Don't propagate conjecture about citizens having to prove they are in the country legally, propagate the videos of people being wrongly deported if and when it happens. This hypothetical doomcasting is part of the informational overload that is leading people to tune out and choose to be an uninformed voter. For better or worse, the average citizen is going to need to witness some leopards ripping apart faces before they really start to consider, let alone buy into, the rhetoric.

In the spirit that brevity is the soul of wit -- Fucktucky.

They are in rural areas especially.

Is that like an Iowa poll or an accurate poll?

Those Mary Kayes have always been a looker. Almost bought a reissue once. Send pics when you buy it

Disagree it’s just a feet mechanics issue. He doesn’t actually have to be pressured to get nervous. He just has to see a blitzer coming. Their rushers may not even be engaged with our linemen before Quinn is trying to figure out what to do in a pocket that has yet to collapse. That’s mental, not mechanical.

Yeah, but… that’s not what causes him to wilt on days where he’s not able to essentially play 7 on 7. It does not take much to get Quinn out of his game where he’s thinking more about the rush than what’s going on down field. And that’s somewhat damming for Someone at Quinn’s level of experience. He should see the blitz coming and start watering at the mouth with the opportunities it presents down field. If I was a D coordinator playing Texas, I would blitz early and make sure to get some licks on Quinn even if it cost a couple flags on Texas first two drives. If you let him just play 7 on 7, you are going to be down two touchdowns anyway en rout to getting blown out.

My teenage kids convinced me to go see Smile 2 with them at the theater. Great flick that is as much psychological thriller and pop culture commentary as it is a horror movie. Has a telegraphed but still pretty devastating ending.

"Apocalypse Now" in the theater at age 9. I guess my parents thought it was going to be a John Wayne style of war movie or something. The week after, my parents got called by my teacher who overheard me talking to other kids about " The heads. You're looking at the heads. Sometimes he goes too far. But... he's the first one to admit it." I probably wasn't too young to watch it, but I took Mary Jane Rottencrotch on a first date to see John Carpenter's "The Thing" without knowing much about it. I just thought scary movie, she'll be leaping into my arms for comfort. It scared the fuck out of both of us so much I had the ignoble honor of being the only kid I grew up with to not even get to first base with her.

The Enigmatic (Dumble) is the one of these that I don’t own, so no direct experience with it specifically, but I own all the others and they pretty squarely hit their target.

A few ways to do it. The pedals are loaded with cabinet impulse responses which can be turned on/off. So you can have the cabinet impulse response on and go direct to a clean amp/speaker or PA and it sounds like what I recorded. This is basically what I do when I play live. What is also possible with a traditional guitar amp (but I haven't tried) is to use a 4 cable wiring method to allow you to use your amp as normal, but also to use one of these pedals with your amps power amp and cabinet. In this case, you would want the cabinet impulse responses off because your normal amp is providing it. This essentially adds a new channel to your existing amp. The attached diagram shows how its wired up. Activate the UAFX pedal, and you bypass your amps preamp and you wind up with the pedals sound getting amplified by your amp's power amp and rendered by its speaker.

Punish them with this run game, then get cute when they adjust.

Dammit, its the lamentation of their sows. Get it right.

I totally get it. There's a difference between being willfully ignorant and adequately informed, and theres a difference between being adequately informed and an anxiety riddled political news junkie. Its good to keep in mind that many people benefit from the exploitation of your personal anger or fear. Angry and afraid people are malleable and able to be motivated. They will read, tune in, like, subscribe, share, donate, vote, defend and more. Angry and afraid people are a valuable form of business, political and military capital. And many people are looking to cultivate them, not just people on the right. Which isn't to say there aren't valid reasons to be angry and afraid at times, but once you have enough information to be informed, nothing is gained by gluttonously consuming more of the same information. At that point, you are giving others access to the controls of your subconscious.

I got to play the Knuckles over lunch and recorded a little ditty that started to emerge. This is a great pedal for that 90s grunge or metal sound.
