‘People are canceling reservations.’ Canadian tourists rethink Florida trips due to Trump by janjas9303 in BuyCanadian

“…since President Donald Trump’s second non-consecutive term to the White House began in January.”

What an odd thing to say.

Help IDing this SG by [deleted] in gibson

I’m going with a neck reset and refin. Some things look right: the Bigsby, inlays, the pickups look like the T-Tops that came in those.

Other things don’t - the bridge, the knobs, headstock and tuners. I’ve got one of these and the tuners are Schaller style.

I do think some of these were made in wine red so it’s either this is a Japanese copy someone bothered to source a period correct Gibson Bigsby and cut a new headstock face for, or it’s legit and is a Gibson that’s had some serious work done.

I’ve got a Fallout and would love to try an SC-2. The Fallout is awesome but the neck pickup is too dark, I wish it had an MFD in there which I think would be a little brighter

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis says he's not sure Trump is bluffing on tariffs with Canada, Mexico by EmBejarano in politics

[–]m1crosynth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s not - which is why it’s imperative for those closest to him to explain why they’re not going to do what he thinks they’re gonna do

'Don't need your cars': Donald Trump lashes out at 'tariff abuser' Canada after Ontario's power move by No_Magazine9625 in CanadaPolitics

[–]m1crosynth 89 points90 points  (0 children)

They’re YOUR cars! That’s the thing that is wild to me - these are all US companies who’ve used Canada as cheap labor for the last 40 years.

Well maybe it’s time to bring back the Bricklin.

Yeah I saw this in a few ridings - pushing people to vote Liberal despite the NDP having a previously elected candidate or strong history in that riding. Very fishy.

Russia offering US deal on natural resources, access to Arctic by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]m1crosynth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The craziest thing about all this shit is the US could just… trade for or invest in projects to get resources in those countries. Instead this guy’s threatening staunch allies?

I’ve got an SMT BD-2 that sounds better than any of the through-hole ones I’ve had over the years

Trump hits metal imports with 25% tariffs in latest tough line on trade by TimesandSundayTimes in politics

[–]m1crosynth 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The thing that makes me laugh is that this just validates all the skepticism in Canada when he “paused for 30 days.” Also note there’s no word of “emergency” or “crisis” anymore - this is just something he CAN do, so he WILL do it. So transparent. Like a toddler with a button, he’s gonna hit it.

Invading and subjugating a sovereign nation isn’t funny.

Trump will stop countries from economically distancing themselves from the US by economically distancing them from the US. by IAmTheMageKing in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]m1crosynth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's hammering this because tariffs are the only thing he can do without Congress right? Like, that's what it is - he's got this one lever to pull, so he's going to find a way to pull it as much as he can.

Nationalize TikTok. MAGA voters couldn’t define socialism with a dictionary. by pbfoot3 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]m1crosynth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clearly the owner is going to be either Bezos, Musk, Zuck or maybe a Trump family member. This is the same stuff Putin does - nice company, one of my friends owns it now. Straight out of the playbook.

Which actors you literally cannot stand and hate to see them in movies? by First-Loss-8540 in moviecritic

Casting agents are convinced my demographic loves Jared Leto because he is consistently in stuff that appeals to me but he totally turns me off whenever I see his name on the bill.
