  1. Philosophically, it’s interesting to me that a society would only build housing when a private group can profit from doing so. If I really step back and look at it, this seems like an odd way to house a society. Of course if that’s the case then logically you’d think that society would make it more profitable to build homes if there is a shortage. But we all know logic is irrelevant. And this is coming from someone who has built housing for profit for the last nearly 30 years so wtf do I know. But I do chuckle at all the handwringing on the homeless issue when there really is only one solution - build free fucking housing - which of course no one ever says or does. As a species, we really have somehow learned to dominate this planet in spite of ourselves.
  2. And he’s made what, 25-50 mil? Nice job Colt.
  3. I did not know cobain had already tried once before. Wasn’t a huge Nirvana fan so didn’t pay real close attention.
  4. As terrible as it was, I honestly wasn’t all that surprised when I heard about Cobain. (Not meaning to minimize the tragedy though). Stevie was rough. It felt so unjust. Still does.

    Anyone read the books?
  6. I may have told this story before. I did a bunch of open mics a while back. You see a lot of things at open mics. Spoken word poetry is always a hit. What’s not a hit is a guy singing the disturbed version (all growly and shit) of that song a cappella and missing pretty much every note. Yikes. True story.
  7. What’s dumbass about that? I enjoyed many enchiritos back in the day.

    Just steered Inspector Morse last night. Thanks for the rec on Brit box
  9. I have travelled with my acoustic in a Mono padded soft case in the overhead on Southwest many times. I always get a good boarding number on Southwest so I find an empty overhead and sit there. Sometimes people complain but not my problem. Never had an issue. Did have one Delta flight where the overhead bins weren’t big enough and the flight attended put it in a closet by the front door. That was the only non-Southwest flight.
  10. Hopefully someone got laid on that pitchers mound
  11. About midway through the second sentence just interrupt with … “is this going to be a LONG story?”… Works wonders.
  12. I’d add constant never ending assault of media messages of how bad things are. That as much as anything has fucked people up imo.
  13. I’m quite sure she learned her lesson
  14. Yea I get the look on the abortion law. The other stuff I’m not as familiar with. The story on the abortion law supposedly is given that North Dakota is about 120% red the leg was going to pass it either way so what good would it do him to veto it and alienate himself. Personally I think the guy is probably pro choice (based on what I’ve heard over the years from people I know who have known him for decades) but he can’t say it, so he calls it a states rights issue. Which makes sense to me. And look I’m not here trying to change anyones mind. It’s just interesting to me because I’ve never had a personal acquaintance and really good friend of a bunch of my friends run for president before. And at least to me he seems like less of a clown than the rest of the gop, and this is the gop clown show thread right?
  15. Wouldn’t hurt to try. I have a 70 super. It only had three speakers in it when I bought it. I took those out because one was blown. Put it some (sacrilege warning) Eminences on the advice of my amp guy. They sounded great. Later I took the three of originals (Jensens I think, maybe oxfords I’d have to look) and a matching one I found online and sent them all out to be Reconed. Put them back in and while it now looks period correct, the Eminences sounded better. FWIW.
  16. I make it a point to tell the health care workers I deal with that I appreciate what they do. Because I do. Fucked up world they work in and I’m glad they do what they do. And I try to let them know.
  17. Looks like I’ll be at the debate next week. Tangentially involved in Doug Burgum’s campaign - bunch of people I know used to work for him, really good people who think the world of him. Clearly a snowballs chance but he’s a good dude. Actual grown up. Stays completely out of the culture bullshit. Zero right wing alt conspiracy nonsense. One can hope I guess. Regardless it will be cool to be at a presidential debate, even though it will clearly be a clown show.
