    They’re already getting ready with the same excuses they used for Hillary. If Kamala loses, it definitely can’t be a result of the fact that Dems seem to actively despise the left.

    This interests me and I honestly don’t even know how to search for more info on this topic. Do you know where I can read more about the situation you’re describing?

    Don’t know who downvoted you, you’re absolutely right. Just as an anecdotal example, my grandmother was an extremely intelligent and progressive Italian-American woman, but Columbus was the one thing she would never budge on. It goes back to a time when Catholics had to constantly defend their loyalty to America. I’d imagine St Patrick’s day was a similar thing. It was these immigrants’ single point of pride that other Americans would respect and understand.

    This rhetoric is sure to convince all those Muslims in Michigan whose family members are being blown up by US bombs. Keep up the good work, neolib crusader!

    Say what you will about the Republicans, at least they get results on their absurd culture war bullshit. Best the Dems can do for the left is ignore us completely and give us Tim Walz as a VP like we should be soooo fucking grateful

    Saying, “we need to” is about as noncommittal as not saying anything at all. That’s like my girlfriend pointing out that the kitchen is a mess and me saying “yeah we really need to do the dishes”.

    A pager isn’t “enemy equipment” in the same way a missile or a gun is. There were literally cell phone stores exploding in Lebanon. A 9-year-old girl died. This is 100% a fucking war crime. If someone kills a member of your family do you get to booby-trap the stove in their house so the kids get their faces melted off?

    Because they would be labeled as a terrorist and promptly dismissed. Gandhi wasn’t perfect, but he knew how to get shit done. The US is the most destructive and lethal country in the world, just like Kamala said at the DNC.

    I always have to preface this by saying I am by no means a Putin apologist, but just follow the money. America loves a war no matter where it is. And why? Because we gotta sell all these bombs and missiles to someone…

    It has nothing to do with it. It’s a straw-man argument. You could do the same kind of misdirection by comparing the number of US-related foreign conflicts under Trump vs Obama + Biden, and that wouldn’t prove anything either. The fact remains that a large portion of Kamala’s constituency wants an arms embargo and those people are being completely ignored.

  • This is my 2008 PRS Hollowbody II singlecut and my 2006 PRS McCarty hollowbody doublecut. Both were purchased second-hand within the past six years. The singlecut was originally offered through the PRS Artist Package and I’ve only ever found one other guitar like it on the internet. Last year I finally pulled all the piezo electronics and had it completely rewired as a regular passive guitar. Aside from that, it’s all stock. The doublecut was a prototype produced before the hollowbody was officially offered as part of the McCarty line, or so I was told. Both of these guitars are remarkably similar. Playability is absolutely off the charts, and I enjoyed the singlecut so much that it was pretty much-love-at-first-sight when I found the doublecut a few years later. They are **the lightest damn guitars** I have ever played; both weigh in at about 5lbs. The weight makes all the difference in the world during long-ass bar gigs and weddings. Tonally, they’re way more percussive than a Les Paul, but incredibly versatile nonetheless. The way the top is braced to the back allows you to crank the gain on your amp/PA without having to worry about the feedback issues typically associated with hollowbody electrics. Hands-down, these are two of my most prized possessions. I never post pics of my instruments to normal social media because I worry about theft, so I decided to do this little write-up to help grow this new (to me) community.

    Picked this one up a couple weeks ago. I’ve been playing for close to 20 years, and this is the first Les Paul I’ve ever really fallen in love with. The big 50’s neck profile is extremely comfortable, and holy crap do I love these Mini Humbuckers! Even though everyone quotes Spinal Tap when I say it, the sustain *is* exceptional; it gives the tone a very “vocal” quality.
