That’s basically what most people who drive by were doing. I think we got one middle finger in the hour or so I was there.

 

Probably about 150 or so people at peak crowd size. Not nearly as much as No Kings which must have been close to 500 people but I was honestly expecting way less considering I didn’t hear about this till last week.

Once she’s pointed the finger at who they want they’ll suicide her to keep her from going back on it.

If she gets out for any reason expect her to disappear to avoid that fate.

Yeah they do. One thing covered late in this video that I thought was cool is that you can set both sides to be the same effect bank with the DIP switches enabling you to run two of the same effect at once into each other.

My only gripe with CBA other than price is that their pedals are not really meant to sit on a pedalboard on the floor. You’re really meant to be constantly tweaking the knobs to find new stuff then save the things you really like. This one probably more so than any other they make.

The AI studio ghibli images get my vote for most dystopian

 

It's a multi-effect pedal with 12 different effects that can be routed into each other or in parallel.

Everyone on this list sucks shit but especially Booker. Just the other day he was posting about how the starvation of Gaza needs to end. Then goes and votes like this. Right after he was hiding in that pic with Netanyahu.

All of it is laughably wrong.

Other than “lower taxes” and “stop illegal immigration” conservative policies are largely unpopular. I put these in quotes because once you start to apply nuance to those policies they become less popular. Lower taxes for who? Middle America? No, for the 1%! Stop criminals from crossing the border? No, deport the farm workers and asylum seekers that prop up American society!

This is why conservatives resort to wedge issues, propaganda, and fear mongering to stir up their base. Nothing they actually do is popular. They manipulate people into voting against their own interest or just play on their own voter’s racism.

Personally, the fear-mongering about cities is fucking insane. I’ve been to a ton of cities and never not felt safe. Are there areas that you probably shouldn’t go to? Sure, but that’s been the case for all human history. Do you have to like cities? No, but don’t act like they’re a Wild West town where people get shot and robbed at a whim.

40k does borrow from the bible a lot. Especially the Sisters of Battle pictured here. They're literally the army of the church in universe so they have a lot of units with biblical names and their models are sculpted to evoke that imagery.

Dems tried to gaslight the public like this last year. Look how that turned out.

I think some of them will blame him as soon as it’s convenient for them so they can continue to shift responsibility from themselves. Anything to absolve themselves from being terrible people and lacking critical thinking skills.

“It’s Trumps fault there’s no more food because all the farm workers were deported! Not because I’m a racist piece of shit! I didn’t vote for this”

Yes you fucking did.

Yeah that’s the shame of it. No one else has done what Destiny does. Hell Destiny doesn’t do what it does best sometimes.

Everything I saw of this before release turned me off. Especially another soft reset of our gear. I spent the last 2-3 years build crafting and finding the stuff I like to use. Soon it’ll be obsolete. Again.

To quote Datto: “Innovation in Destiny cannot be ‘more Destiny’ “ and boy did everything I saw look like “more Destiny” except you can turn into a ball when we tell you to.

EDIT: You know what else was a turn off? All those employees getting laid off after TFS was a “massive success” while Pete Parsons is still in charge. Hard to justify giving Bungie more money.

Juan and Nick Reinhart used to do a YouTube show/series called Pedals and Effects and run a site under the same name that did some really non-traditional demos of great pedals. It was basically two dudes in a garage nerding out about gear which was great.

It looks like Juan's accident really messed up his speech but he has been posting a lot of YouTube shorts of him playing bass lately so I'm hoping he gets better.

 

 

She didn’t quite finish writing her sermon before the battle:
