Electric guitar pickup maker out of Norton, OH, featuring the patented Tuned Aperture pickup. Veteran owned, anti-war, anti-fascist. Pickups made in the USA from global components. Will not do business with MAGA.
Put them through their paces last night and I'm super stoked on how they sound. Let a couple of buddies check them out over calls and they both loved the sound. Today, I started working on the full sized noiseless P90, as well as a full sized noisy P90 set to A/B them. This is a game changer, IMO.

100%. Trans rights are human rights, say it loud and proud. Anyone who doesn't support our trans homies can fuck right outta here.
TRANS RIGHTS ARE A WINNING POLITICAL ISSUE
Every single centrist claiming we must all compromise our bodily autonomy for their personal comfort is a traitor to American democracy & rational human decency.
They have no place in a modern Democratic Party, toss them out. Total liberation for all.

I've lived in this house for over 2 years now and haven't had a functional shop, only as functional as needed to do my work, but my mom has been here helping me clean and set up and the progress has been amazing. Still have a bunch to do, but it's starting to feel far less hopeless.

Republicans want to demolish the White House and build golden ballrooms while millions starve is neither inaccurate nor difficult framing.

A core feature of our unprecedented Article I constitutional crisis is that the Speaker of the House is permitted to performatively lie in public with impunity from the podium every day & the assembled media in front of him offer approximately no pushback at all on the lies.

Why are so many people on SNAP?
Because capitalism requires poverty to function.
That's it. That's the skeet.

Been working on improving my workspace. Added more power outlets, built a riser for my Bambulabs P1S, and moved my computer under the bench and wall mounted the monitor. Still have more work to do but it's nice to see progress.

Again, if you think the creation of the Department of Defense in 1947 had anything to do with “woke” politics you should not be allowed to operate a car much less the entire American military.
Trump: "We won World War 1. We won World War 2. We won everything in between. We won everything before. And all of the sudden they decide to change the name. They went woke then too, you know. Woke is a long term. Word."

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

Started flat sanding the splatter, trying to get a better result when clear coating, and found that the splatter started looking worn, and really liked it, so sanded the whole body in a similar manner. Clear coat starting soon.

The control all three branches of government but this is the Democrats fault 🙃
SCOOP — The White House instructed all federal agency leadership on Tuesday to send out a mandatory message to workers blaming the impending potential government shutdown on House Democrats, The Handbasket was first to learn. Absolutely no modifications to the email were permitted.
My story:
My story:
Trump mandates all federal agencies send email blaming Dems for potential gov’t shutdown
Workers call the partisan email "a vile slap in the face."

If there were a Differential Gap used to decide the pay rate executives could have (including stock options) was directly linked to the wages of their workers. The middle class would flourish and executives would still get rich.

Starbucks is closing stores and cutting 900 jobs in a restructuring move.
1,100 jobs were slashed earlier this year.
Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.
This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

This HSP90 has a secret, can you spot it?
Been working on this one in the background for a while, still have some different things to try, but it's very close to launching.
