I have said it since ~2015. This country was screaming for change. There were two options on the table, Trump's fascist populism, and Bernie's progressive agenda. The Democrats (the establishment and the middle + upper class voters) chose to bury the progressive agenda in favor of a status quo because they were all comfy. Now we have fascist America.

Well done.

Be a homie and make sure your work doesn't run. Use permanent markers.

Same here. First Warhammer anything for me.

I just started Dan Abnett’s Warhammer 40k Inquisition series, starting with Pestilence.

Leave? And go where?

Europe is also on a steady march towards fascism, racism, and homophobia with a strong helping of the threat of Russian aggression. Climate change is an extreme risk worldwide. Money isn't going to save you. Maybe if you are a billionaire you can buy comfort for the rest of your life.

So, wealthy isn't enough. Filthy rich is the only answer...maybe.

I meant that yes, it sucks today, but unfortunately the suckage will persist and escalate. So in the context of the clip, the sun will get louder and hotter every morning until they are finally driven mad or cooked.

I had seen the video.

the sun will come up in the morning

Unfortunately. The torture will persist and escalate tomorrow, and the day after that, etc.

...but I really liked it.

Ultimately, that is all that matters.

Unfortunately, posts that do include the keyword in the text but not in the title, still get through. Case in point, this one.

Meh doesn't mean bothered, it means that it did nothing for me. It seemed to make its point quite clearly and then just lingered. Its purpose seemed, more than anything else, to be a self-indulgent Hollywood circlejerk. Not bad, not good, and very forgettable.

These are the four richest people in the world. Every single one of them became rich by stealing others ideas, exploitation of others and the ecological devastation of the planet.

 

...US congresswoman Maria Elvira Salazar said she was "disgusted" by the "racist comment". She said it did not "reflect the GOP values""...

You sure about that Maria?

A friend of mine put this together. I thought it was a neat tool for parents so I decided to share.

 

Tap for spoilerUsed electric guitars are way overpriced. IMHO current guitars, regardless of country of origin (and often price), are of better quality than almost everything built from the 70's through the end of the 90's.

 

A Travis County jury found Austin police officer Christopher Taylor guilty of deadly conduct Saturday. He faces up to 10 years in prison.

“We hope this outcome continues to help the DeSilva family with their healing process,” Travis County District Attorney José Garza said in a statement. “Our office is grateful to our dedicated staff who worked tirelessly to hold the defendant accountable and seek justice for the victim and their family. We further hope this verdict allows the community to heal and that we can move forward together."

Taylor was indicted for the killing of Mauris DeSilva, a 46-year-old neuroscientist, in July 2019.

Taylor and another officer, Karl Krycia, responded to 911 calls about DeSilva having a mental health crisis and holding a knife to his own neck at a downtown condominium.

The officers fatally shot DeSilva after he refused to drop the knife, KUT previously reported.

Taylor was originally indicted for the murder of DeSilva, but the charge was lessened to deadly conduct just a week before testimony began.

"The Austin Police Department respects the criminal justice process and understands this is a difficult time for all who have been impacted," APD said in a statement.

A judge will decide Taylor's sentencing date on Oct. 15.

Taylor was also indicted for the killing of Michael Ramos, an unarmed Black and Hispanic man, in April 2020.

Taylor was tried for murder in that case in 2023, but it ended in a hung jury. A grand jury declined to re-indict him for murder in that case, but he could be retried on lesser charges.

I ordered this on a whim but I am probably going to sell it. It is a wonderful guitar but I prefer a beefier neck. This guitar is absolutely ideal for someone with small hands.

Currently setup for C Standard tuning. More pictures in the comments.

EDIT: Sold
