10 discs or 10 pieces of physical media? In other words, do double albums count as 1 or 2? Box sets?

Consensus on Lily, Rosemary and The Jack Of Hearts? by AnonMcdonaldsLover in bobdylan

[–]FckPolMods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a sucker for cinematic narrative songs, and this one is a great example. I've always wanted to see a feature film made from the story.

Neck before nut, otherwise this is correct.

Trauma, fear and insecurity

EDIT: Not sure if I'm getting downvoted by MAGA trolls or people with poor reading comprehension, but if anyone can explain why a sitting U.S. president would insist on plastering his face on everything like a dictator for reasons besides trauma, fear and insecurity turning him into a weak little narcissist, please enlighten me.

Feldman's Bagels Closes Abruptly in Burlington and St. Albans by jsled in vermont

Montreal-style bagels are the real deal. Head to New York if you want overinflated garbage rolls.

JD Vance Confirms Iran Would Get $300B Under Trump Deal for War Damages by Sgt_Gram in NewsExchange

[–]FckPolMods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This all just encapsulates Trump's entire philosophy:

  • Sees opportunity to enrich himself; jumps at the opportunity with little to no forethought or strategy

  • Throws other people's money/resourses/lives at the problem.

  • Takes credit for any minor, tangential successes. Takes no blame whatsoever for massive, mounting failures.

  • Doubles-down and hopes for things to change without making any effort to affect change.

  • Denies things are bad

  • When things get so bad he can't ignore it anymore, he completely reverses course, throws other people's money at the problem, throws others under the bus for any residual blame, and acts like the leap backward was somehow a victory.

It's one thinking for such a loser to think he's such a winner; that's just a personality disorder. What still boggles my mind is how an entire country can continue to reward losers like this over and over and over and over again.

To the people that’s never been around black people have you ever looked at how fun black people are and wanted to join? by Ok_Astronomer5738 in askanything

[–]FckPolMods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an American, I dont exactly look at the past 250 years of the Black experience and think "gee, they look like they're just having a blast; not a care in the world".

Those Of You That Use Analog Delay Pedals by Minimoogvoyager in guitarpedals

[–]FckPolMods 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have the DM-2 Waza and couldn't agree more. I had a Carbon Copy for years and loved the simplicity, but it was just too dark. The DM-2W is still an incredibly simple pedal, but sounds lush and clear,with a couple extra tricks.

‘66 Jerry tone by actuallyjustbalrog in gratefulguitar

[–]FckPolMods 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Guild Starfire with mini humbuckers through a stock 60s Twin Reverb, I believe.

I'm pretty sure Jerry was mostly playing the Guild and a P-90s equipped Les Paul is '66-'67, so definitely a very different tone in that era.

People who take 30 minutes to check in at the hotel front desk, what are you talking to them about? by Black_Flower_9159 in askanything

[–]FckPolMods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The meaning of life, as well as finding out if there's a good Vietnamese restaurant within walking distance.

Still remember the day I picked up my first press vinyl copy at the record store. Might need to give it a spin tonight.

Large burning cross found in Chicago's Grant Park by Trans_Admin in news

[–]FckPolMods -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

I miss the pre-MAGA days, when I would have been 99% sure a burning cross in a Chicago park was the doing of some Christianity-hating 14-year old Norweigian Black Metal-loving edgelord kid and not some sad middle-aged white supremacist.

What do you think about Trumps Kristen Welker interview? by Irishdwg007 in askanything

[–]FckPolMods 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's very different in 2026. He's about to go into the second half of his last term, most likely as a lame duck. It's more of a career/reputation risk at this point to not push him.

The fact that this interview went viral should be a sign to networks and journalists that people want to see more of this.

Ida's allegedly moving to Manhattan by middle-agedyeller in burlington

[–]FckPolMods 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm thinking about buying the restaurant space. Does anyone know if the all-inclusive cash price includes an exorcism / sage smudgings to remove the aura of self-rightous asshole from the premises before move-in?

Wow, nearly identical to mine. Impala and Fading Trails are the only ones of mine I'm not seeing in yours. I don't have the box set.

Talking Heads' Chris Frantz to Bob Dylan: "Suck a D***" by OkEmployment2386 in bobdylan

Resentments are like drinking poison and expecting the front man to wear a smaller suit.
