  1. On the plus side, Yellowstone Bison gorings will be up 1000% year over year.
  2. Everyone interacting with Trump should start calling it El Golfo de America.
  3. Holy shit, I am a goddam soothsayer.
  4. Calling it now: We are a month away from learning that DOGE is simplifying the enormously wasteful Rube Goldberg architecture of distributed government systems into a streamlined and efficient Wordpress architecture.
  5. Right to left: Hotone vow press (wah/volume) Swiff audio tuner F-pedals phasevibe (phaser, vibrato) Mooer blues mood (blues driver clone) Wampler Ratsbane (rat clone) or Wampler Tumnus (klon klone) Tonex one (AI amp/cab modelling using a Vox AC30 capture w/built in compressor) One control dimension blue monger (chorus) JHS tidewater (tremolo) Schutone Loadstone (tape delay) One control prussian blue reverb (reverb) It can go from very clean with neither dirt pedal activated to edge of breakup with just the blues mood to crunch with just the ratsbane to something kinda approaching fuzz with both the blues mood and ratsbane on. The delay and reverb can do ambient "Explosions in the Sky" type sounds. I can fit in with pretty much any musical context with this except detuned death metal and it will sound good. I will probably add a small EQ to allow the base tone to be tweaked for different guitars/pickups without having to muck with any of the core tone knobs.
  6. This little pedalboard plugged straight into a PA has no business sounding as good as it does.
  7. Firebird's are pretty damn sexy.
  8. Trump's the missle. Elon's the payload.
  9. This summer, Damien: Omen 2025 will have nationwide release.
  10. I generally agree with the content of what you wrote. Teachers are generally excellent, in the job for the right reasons, and willing to go beyond their job description for students who show promise or who the system is failing. When Leander ISD was denying our kids special-ed services to comply with TEA's caps on the number of students receiving special ed, their teachers went far beyond what they were required to do to help our kids as much as they could. It was the policies from the TEA and implementation under the direction of the school district's administration that failed us. They are not in it for the right reasons.
  11. Well, I don’t know how you do things around here, Mr Chapo, but in the United States the customer is ALWAYS right.
  12. Hey, I hope you and your family find your place to be yourselves without fear or infringement, but I find this really fascinating. You feel safer around cartels than MAGA? I mean, wouldn't there also be a set of rules for staying safe in Trump's America?
  13. We'll ask you again in July.
  14. There's a rural, working-class white-guy zeitgeist going on in entertainment. It's not inherently MAGA, but it does sell well to people who don't see 21st century progress as worth a damn, and that's a big overlap with MAGA. Taylor Sheridan is seen as having his finger on this pulse, much like Puff Daddy was seen as having his finger on the pulse of urban black culture. I don't care, fucking entertain me as the world burns.
  15. Funny enough I’m going on an Eastman buying spree before the tariffs really get up to speed. ETA tomorrow.
  16. Nine-nines of reliable stupidity
  17. SHAPE OF… A WEEPING CUNT BOIL!
  18. That’s not Kid Rock, that’s Mike Lindell in drag.
  19. I wonder how these pro-corporate, anti-government folks would react if the government shut down a business the moment it finds any evidence that a regulation had been violated? Boeing cut corners bringing the 757 max? Several hundred people died? Sayonara, bitches. You are no longer allowed to exist and thoughts and prayers to your employees. Somehow I don't think there would be the same zeal...
  20. I’m more likely to win Mr Congeniality in pursuit of the Masturbatory Arts.
  21. Based on my adolescent listening habits, it would have to be…
  22. MAGA’s Johnny Football.
  23. My hypothesis that scientists and scholars are just as susceptible to buzzword hype as executives and marketers has proven true.
  24. Surly shart poll... Do you try to salvage the underwear, throw it in the hamper for your wife to deal with or do you...
  25. While I totally agree, I don’t think Musk or Trump are the kind that explain themselves, provide transparency or feel the need to answer to anyone. There is a reason the founding fathers wanted a system of checks and balances. Because they were leaving a monarchy where power was consolidated into a single individual that answered to only themselves and whatever conscience they possessed.
