“In the early days, a guitar company would come and I’d go into a soundcheck and there’d be all these cases open with different guitars, [The company would] say, ‘choose one. We’ll give you a guitar.’ I’d be like, ‘no, thanks. I have a guitar.’” - Chrissie on her blue Telecaster via Guitarist

Right wing groups are threatening companies with law suits if they don't adopt their white nationalist agenda. Target folded, Costco didn't. There was a resolution put to shareholders. Costco's board recommended voting against it. Costco won. They got alot of new customers.

Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac – Need Your Love So Bad 🎶

Pure late-night blues. Peter Green’s Need Your Love So Bad is as smooth as it gets achingly soulful vocals, delicate phrasing, and guitar work that says more with one note than most can in a lifetime.

This very helpful video from Beatles engineer Giles Martin explains that AI as is most typically used in the studio workflow isn't the same as *generative AI*. Using AI to clean up an old John Lennon recording isn't the same as generating a fake John voice.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help
