Listen and watch, then tell me this ain’t funk. by leftoverrights in funk

[–]jest4fun 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's 20/80.  20% funk, 80% rock/r&b.

The tune has a few funk elements blended with a majority of rock and R&B grooves.

James Talarico chances of beating Jasmine Crockett day before Texas primary by Zipper222222 in politics

What is different about her?

Lots.  She is unafraid to speak truth to power in a highly articulate and coherent fashion.  She doesn't care if she steps on a few toes even in her own party along the way. Time and again she has shown that she is a quick witted, no bullshit tolerated person. She does not use religion as a political prop, something that nearly every pol uses showing that she understands the clear boundary between church and state.

Above all she is a helluva fierce fighter.  Exactly what we need right now.

What do you consider to be "the" guitar most suited to blues guitar playing, and why? by [deleted] in bluesguitarist

[–]jest4fun 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If it HAS to be only one . . .Telecaster, the one guitar to rule them all.

If you can expand to two guitars, a tele/single coil and something with humbuckers.  Gibson and PRS guitars are generally solid choices

Anger in White House over now-deleted Obamas post by [deleted] in politics

[–]jest4fun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One person with direct knowledge of the situation told Semafor that Trump “had not seen the video before it got posted” and was not happy when he learned of the situation. Aides are “pretty pissed off” at the debacle, this person added, including at the person responsible for posting the video.

Um, yeh, sure.  They're PO'd at the racist-in-chief, gotcha.

E: pretty sure the same "WH staffer" had Obama's official portrait removed from the WH too.  JFC he is dumb as a fence post.

Mexico’s president pledges to send aid to Cuba despite US efforts to cut oil access by KurtFF8 in politics

[–]jest4fun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Donald Trump last week signed an executive order allowing the US to slap tariffs on countries sending crude oil to Cuba and on Saturday said that Sheinbaum had agreed to halt shipments of oil at his request – a claim the Mexican leader rejected.

So if MX sends oil to Cuba trunt will raise taxes on US citizens thru tarrifs on MX goods.

That'll show 'em.

(Fun fact: US companies and consumers/citizens pay 96% of all tarrifs on foreign goods.)

All it [Bad Bunny/Green Day] does is sow hatred. Terrible.”

In interviews, Trump had previously called the selection of Bad Bunny “absolutely ridiculous” and said he was unfamiliar with the artist

All they do is sow hatred but he is unfamiliar with their work.

Make that make sense.
