I play all the rock instruments and then some. I never got along with fretless strings or horns, because they require much more practice.
My main interests are in theory, composing and synthesizers, so I like instruments that are playable from a logic approach rather than muscle memory.
I’m still pretty technically decent with guitars and the djembe. Maybe blues harp too.
If I were to join a band, it’d probably be on bass though.
Also, the Smurfs
The US bases are already sovereign territory, but sure, it’s great if Trump can be satisfied with getting what he already had. Apparently all it took was for a grown up person to explain it to him.
There’s a reason why we’re allies. We allow shit.
Greenland being like: “You can sleep on my couch any time buddy.”
Trump is like “Don’t call me buddy, I demand ownership of the couch, and I will fight you for it!”
Greenland “Calm the fuck down, the couch is your’s to sleep on already.”
Vance just staring at the couch.
Go to the small concert venues and see them play.
There was no lunch money handed over.
What actually happened:
Trump: “I’m going to attack a NATO country”
NATO: “You shouldn’t do that”
Trump goes golfing.
You: “4D chess!!!”
I’m not following this 4D chess.
Pro tip: Cut the baguette in a 45° angle.
It makes the first bite easier, and it looks better.
“Sovereignty over military bases.”
They already had that on Greenland since 1951. As recent as last summer Denmark even approved the same setup in mainland Denmark, so that the potential future American military bases in Denmark could be allowed to operate their bases under American laws instead of local laws, just like an embassy.
Needless to say, this is wildly unpopular at the moment.
Look at a population pyramid.
This site has done nice animated options: https://chartingtheglobe.com/demographics/population-pyramid
If you want to see more regional overviews, then the CIA also has some nice selections here:

The main issue is that the population is getting older. Not enough new borns to pay taxes to care for the old people in twenty years. This can only be solved by immigration from countries with higher birthrates.
That looks like the Emerica G6 Wino slip-ons.
I wore those out in about a year just from walking. The bottom isn’t very good, which is a shame, because they’re otherwise very comfortable and durable.
Euopean prisons are too good for him, and I don’t care about justice at this point.
He should be placed in an American mental asylum for the rest of his days. A lobotomy and a few daily electroshocks would do good for his dementia and keep his mania in check.
Buy Florida? Forget it.
Let’s try again:
How much are you willing to pay us for sailing three longships full of drones onto the beach at Mar-a-lago and claiming the land as ours?
(The boat-show is a useless but mandatory expense).
Okay, so I can’t really get angry over a demented old man yelling at the clouds, it’s what they do…
But exactly what is happening in USA since there’s nobody telling him to shut the fuck up? Somebody wrote this on a piece of paper for him and put it in an envelope and send it through as diplomatic post between two nations. And NOBODY at any point whatsoever had the courage to tell him what is obvious to everyone else on the planet: That these are the dumbest words every written on a piece of paper in the entire history of mankind. Really?
What are they so afraid of?
The fuck is the Norwegian prime minister to do with that load of shit? He’s not even on the committee.
Apparently Trump doesn’t even know what the fuck the Nobel prize is.
We don’t have to drive goods anywhere. It’s all on paper.
If the German company shipping German goods from a German harbor actually belongs to their Polish subsidiary, that’s Polish goods.
EU is a trade union though, so it’s all of EU.
He can’t tax one EU country different from others.
Let’s say he decides to do it anyway.
Then the EU country with the highest tariff could simply move the goods through another EU country with a lower tariff. All on paper of course.
But anyway, why’d EU even care about domestic US taxes…
Ideas can spread but also get corrected when people interact.
It used to be that people talked to each other and set the dumbasses straight whenever they spit out this kind of “politics”.
These days everyone is just angry online and they’d rather change their online network than to change their minds.
Someone should have told off Trump long ago. They didn’t, and since he chose to communicate official statements on Twitter, instead of passing it through advisers and secretaries who could advise him better, it’s only gotten worse.
Fascism is an idea that needs to die, but it’s really difficult to confront the idea when the fascists hide in their online safe spaces, like X and Truth Social, where they only interact with bootlickers and block everyone else.
I think the best way to kill fascism is to talk openly about it with other people offline.
This is an old Mandela effect.
The issue is that they don’t actually remember what the sun looked like, because you can’t really look at the sun.
Their memories are of the crayon drawings that they made in school.
