    Thanks for that explanation. Are people strictly liable for the actions of their dogs? Kid with access to a gun (even if they’ve taken a course where it was explained that murder is bad and even if they sometimes shoot animals alone) seems like a pit bull.

    I’m defending this position - I could add a “broadly “ in there if that allows legal room for me to mean “in most or many cases”.

    There's a mountain of shitty pop punk but plenty of good shit, especially if broaden it slightly to include the nearby relative punk subgenres. I would defend Blink 182 as a good band and would go so far as to say that you are wrong if you argue that Jimmy Eat World is bad.

    It is interesting, that whole genre ruled the world for what a decade? It's been 25 years, we're back to cycling in fashions from the 2000s, nobody is defending this shit or asking for it to come back.

    Because gun violence is different and, by choosing to keep an unsecured/poorly secured gun in the home, the parent is involved in creating the risk in a way that is different than a parent who owns a car or has a chef's knife. I'm not a lawyer, I'm not trying to pretend to be a lawyer, and obviously this is not a legal argument - a small subset of society demands that society as a whole take on the non trivial risk and negative externalities created by their hobby. In the absence of different solutions for managing that demand I'm happy to see some more risk sharing here. And obviously it's a complex issue and a complex world but if your kid gets your gun and murders someone with it, there were things you failed to do that could have prevented that outcome. Like lock the gun up such that a fucking teenager with a pair of bolt cutters isn't going to get at it.

    Do a better job securing your gun, do a better job parenting/paying attention to your kid.

    There’s something special about guns.

    I’m fairly comfortable with the idea that you are responsible for a minor household member using your guns to murder people. Lots of solutions for people who aren’t comfortable with that risk.

    Honestly a lot of these songs are more annoying than bad. Even LFO, I remember that song 25 years after having last heard it. Bush was one of the least cool/authentic or whatever 90s post grunge bands but they had songs that are defensible as quite good. I don’t know that Chris Gaines song but I doubt Garth Brooks’ worst song quite fits. I can’t remember them but I think there were some Fergie songs that were pretty just terrible. This Black Eyed Peas song is actually great but this sketch about its stupidity cracks me up Call Me Maybe should be a terrible song, on paper. But it’s not.

    Didn’t even know he was sick.

    Ok this is exactly what I do. I’m just not nearly as good at fingerstyle (I mean, or flatpicking). That’s a carry over from playing guitar while sitting at a computer for hours, when I’d type with a pick in my fingers.

    if you're hearing a song on the radio and tv, the songwriter is getting checks

    Just since we're weighing in, I don't know much about Luke Combs but I also don't have a problem with him. Beyond bringing attention to a great song, I am a fan of mainstream country audiences emotionally connecting with black lesbians, whether they're aware of it or not.

    I heard it at Lidl the other day. It is to the Chapman version what the Hootie Wagon Wheel is to Old Crow Medicine Show.

    Missing the tuneomatic but this is the kind of no flame that gets my pants tight https://cartervintage.com/shop/gibson-les-paul-19581954-reissue-1972-sunburst/2bN6CCgK2ysKMFIYfuDpipTMmlM https://www.instagram.com/p/C27npKhuecm/?igsh=Mm9wZ2c5eXlpYW0=

    I did not know about the 30k to Roth thing, and hadn’t thought about grandchildren. Probably won’t be an issue but that does quell a little bit of noise in my head about that. I’ve got like $15k in a 529 for the almost three year old but will probably have to slow down now that there are two.

    He was/is on Pete Davidson’s show, which Lorne executive produces. I doubt he actually dislikes him.
