Little 22-1/2" scale guitar I modded into a pretty cool rock machine for a kid who wants to learn. Epiphone Probuckers and Ernie Ball 11s make it sound legit, and the neck is really nice.

Regarding American Dad, I'd say S2 E19 through Season 9 is the "Golden Age." Joint Custody is where all the characters are fully developed. S10-12 are ROCKY. Most recent season I'd say is at about 80%, not bad for a show of its age. #americandad

Two broken guitars are now one, and ready to rock again. New owner wants to play Zeppelin. This should do it.

Trump is the second greatest scam pulled on the American people, only closely following the entire rise of originalism.
Alito calls on the Supreme Court to overturn years of Confrontation Clause precedent that bars the introduction of out-of-court testimonial statements unless the witness testifies live. Would be a revolution for the Sixth Amendment, and terrible for defendants. www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

Credit where credit is due. This is the original Times story reporting on this, and it appears today on the top of page 1 in the paper edition. These are the opening paragraphs, which do a great job of providing legal and constitutional context. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/u...

we’re all for celebrating trans punk bands and obviously celebrate the movement.

but if the only way you can describe trans punk artists is through a punk lens, because you’re incapable of seeing their trans identities as valid, or describing them in an affirming way,

get the fuck out.

Setting up new gear, writing new tunes, and getting this new-ish band to the next stage!

We'll be back on the (local) road in a couple months.

While President Trump illegally pauses federal funding from Congress, the Senate must not be business as usual.

We do not consent to this lawless power grab.
