  2. FUCK’EM RIGHT IN THE BUSSEY
  3. Love this picture also, this picture I’ve seen a bunch because it’s the last picture before a bunch of hospital shots of ^^that guy being born. We missed it last year but we went back to the same Santa today and I tried to recreate it
  4. Last year I was posting about a disastrous Thanksgiving for a family member. Was just texting them congrats on 1 year. Man last Thanksgiving was a goddamn shitshow, got to make an impromptu trip to La Hacienda, and then swing back through for family week in December. It’s a magical place.
  5. Ok I’m a big fan of buying guitars that you randomly like when you’re in the guitar store (my orange gretsch, my j45, my les paul, my dirnt P) and I’m a big fan of buying guitars that fit your theme. Mine is something like “classics checklist” (blonde tele, cherry burst les Paul, burst strat, d28, burst 45, etc, shit maybe it’s bursts) and yours is “none more black”. I’m also a fan of going back to stores to buy the guitar you didn’t buy the last time (my black gretsch, my d41) so look I’ll finally cut to the chase and ask that you post pics and maybe even live video of our new guitar. also, I think Gibson just reintroduced some version of that Les Paul Special/Junior. Maybe it was the double cutaway that was only available as like a Rick Beato signature or something? I still want one of those specials or juniors.
  6. I was listening to 69 Love Songs and thinking about how badly this needed an Americana or Yallternative cover - close enough
  7. I mean, the overall vibe, hell yeah The upside down bridge on a J45 style guitar also looks like the right kind of rude to go with an all black guitar. mustache bridge works well too. My reservations on that guitar would be.... what exactly is it? EC? Concert depth dreadnought? I'm not sure exactly what that means but it sounds like it might be dreadnought (or presumably, Gibson Jumbo) shaped but thinner front to back. Which is cool but I'd want to play it and understand the volume, unless I'm going to use it plugged in. If you are using it on stage that might actually be really cool and comfortable, especially if you like the baggs pickup. But I'd check to make sure i understand the size, and also maybe play a Gibson or two if you're used to Martin acoustic scale lengths. I feel like you specifically are a Taylor guy? Can't remember their scale.
  8. I need to go watch again and see how it hits me this time - live I felt kinda the same way about the ending. In retrospect, I feel like this movie caught so much right about how the pandemic felt although obviously it's all over the top and cartoonish. But the whole ending sequence from the deep state false flag chaos through the ascension to power of the lunatic mom... several months out from watching this movie it feels true to how the pandemic felt in the same way that first scene with the car and the masks felt.
  9. Sack finally discovered a limit to his moral pliability when it came to the popular suggestion that, despite and unrelated to the fact that somebody had shot him right in the fucking neck, that Charlie Kirk guy was a real jerk.
  10. This is out on HBO now I think and I’m going to watch it again. I was wrong, I do think about this movie and it has grown on me. In retrospect I think it was very good.
  11. I loved this. Touching/feel good, Brendan Fraser is great. Two for two out of movies I’ve seen of his since his return that have made me have feelings about dadhood. The girl was good. I’ve enjoyed a lot of heavy or political or tense movies lately, this one is a good feelings movie.

  12. Seeing as it’s Christmas and all
  13. I lived in the neighborhood around Bedicheck - other side of Congress south of Wm Cannon. I remember one time I went to that HEB and pulled into that trailer park neighborhood on the way out to try and get flipped around. Never took that exit out of the HEB again, and really quickly abandoned that store altogether in favor of shitty HEB, Manslaughter, Brodie, and even Circle C. It is hard to imagine nobody calling the cops, but also I bet it takes a lot for people who live in that neighborhood to invite the police to come to that neighborhood.
  14. Maybe all the ICE agents should wear the same color shirt to help identify them.
  15. yeah for sure. it's funny, I think my first introduction to MJ was as a guest vocal on that Waxahatchee "Right Back To It" song (apart from JimmyJazz mentioning Wednesday in this thread, but I didn't make the connection), but at this point I feel like everything touched by that group of people is part of the extended Wednesday universe, which is Gen Z coded to me. But Waxa is millennial. This video actually put so much context onto her for me - also was feeling bad for the Wednesday mcu derail again but they are an extension of this whole musical tree
  16. It’s so funny hearing a song that’s great and every time, picking up the guitar and finding that it’s the same thing as every other song. He does some quicker changes in there than I was getting and I’m pretty sure the chord I was missing is Am (relative to the capo) but yeah man it’s just g c f d and all those little hammer ons and pull offs Took me a second to find MJ. This is like Gen Z Breeders.
  17. connecting dots here, it seems like Todd was injured in an altercation near the club, tour was cancelled, tour manager sent the band home and Todd to the hospital. When police reached out to the manager he was confused and said he asked for an ambulance, not police. Nowhere in that article does it mention what kind of state he was in that night before the assault, but from the "assaulted" and "no police please" and the state he's in on the arrest cam (the morning after?) I'm guessing he was very not OK. I mean, that article starts with 'none of the PDs have information or are trying to get information' and ends with the part where his babysitter didn't want help from police at the outset of the crisis. I'm guessing that whatever happened was connected to Todd's condition, him escaping the first hospital and getting into an altercation leading to his arrest at a second hospital was related to his condition, and getting sick in a way that killed him from a night of being assaulted, wandering the streets, being thrown in the back of a police car, and then somehow shipped back home to Nashville is also related to his condition. I can speak with some experience that nobody takes you seriously when you present as a delirious drunk or addict, it's hard to communicate effectively or consistently, you're not really in control of your actions, and it is hard on the body. That kind of night is rough at 30, I don't think I could do it at 40, not surprised if that's pretty much what the story is at 50. Fucking bummer to go out like that, if that's what happened. It would be interesting to know more about the altercation outside of the club.
  18. Wife is out of town all week, air fried gnocchi as a quick and easy meal
