  1. Past hour
  2. Trying to get guitar porn thread back on track by: 1) I don’t think anyone believes that TS has an iconic or even “great” voice. That said, she is extremely effective at using it to do white girl tricks in conveying different tones in her songs. Her first two albums have a very nashvilly sound vocally, 1989 is the definition of teeny bopper, while reputation is quite strong in conveying bitterness and anger, and then a very mellow and pretty sound for folklore/evermore. Creating those different album feels is not as easy as she makes it look, despite the fact that she’s not a technical or pitch perfect iconic voice. But at the end of the day, the chick can write some fucking hits and is a very good instinctual musician. She’s also quite smart in her collaborative choices. While being an attractive white girl may have given her a “leg” up in the beginning, her talent and songwriting is plenty organic is is ultimately undeniable. The stadiums of 90,000 people singing along every word for THREE AND A HALF fuckkng hours in every city around the world out front should have told you and I’d sell all of your guitar collections combined in a heartbeat to have 25% of that ability. She’s been wildly oversaturated for the last five years so I get the pushback and it’s time for something different but she’s an all time songwriter and a very talented musician and it’s silly to say otherwise. 2) thanks to consulting you guys, I didn’t do something idiotic and drill a hole in the Martin. Got a really nice strap from them to connect to the neck and it’s working out great so thanks to all for stopping me from doing stupid things.
  3. Any other GMs there? Pelinka got Luka over a cup of coffee. Who knows what Nico would do if another GM bought him beers.
  4. Somewhere in the world Sergio Perez is laughing.
  5. Kind of amusing to see young kids doing a classic like this
  6. This guy has his panties in a bunch again about something someone wrote on the Internet:
  7. The argument isn't invalid though, to align with other standard election cycles in an attempt to boost voter turnout.
  8. Amazing season so far. Pitching has been crazy good, and not just against the dregs of MLB. It's getting harder for the media to keep ignoring this team, but the national outlets are still working hard to do just that.
  9. Put me down for “he who fists himself but will not be named”
  10. I’ve said it before on this website—when I was teaching college in Houston (I’m an administrator now), the top 3 destinations for transfer for my students were UH, Sam, and A&M. The answer most given for why those 3 was “because I know i can get in.” Those same students would tell me “I’d love to go to UT like you Dr. P, but I know I can’t get in so I’m not going to try.” I also knew there was no way 95% of them who wanted to get in *could* get in so I didn’t encourage them. And most of those students didn’t want to go to A&M for the cultish shit, they just knew A&M had their major and it was close to Houston/home.
  11. I have a casual interest in F1 meaning I turn it on in the background 2-3 times a year. This is a movie for movie fans in general, not just F1 or racing fans. The visuals and sound are incredible. We don’t have IMAX nearby but we saw it in a Dolby Cinema with a large screen and great sound and it felt like we were right in the middle of the action. The score by HZ was perfect and the soundtrack was very good.
  12. Texas softball 2026: we’ll fukin do it again I don’t respect tech enough to hate them
  13. Chalky hates Wisner. I apparently hate Gibson. CTJ just hates white people. Anyone else?
  14. “Texas softball 2026: never bought a championship”
  15. Karun sucks.
  16. I don’t get ads with Disney, never have. Have ads with Hulu and ESPN+ (I think).
