Japanese copy of a Gibson Les Paul Junior, in white. The body is heavily β€œrelic’d”, meaning there are parts of the surface that are scratched, gouged, and otherwise abused.

My most roadworn (naturally) guitar is this Japanese Les Paul Jr. copy, circa late 1970s. Those are gouges in the surface, not just scratches.

I am Graham Platner's age. I too was in the post 9/11 military. I also grew up in a small town in the Northeast US. I am also a college dropout with PTSD. And I am telling you: anyone from my demographic who had a Nazi tattoo for 15 years is either a Nazi or too dumb to be an effective US senator.

This year DHS is requiring the Real ID to have access to the extra hours this year. Good advice to get some out early.

You have to wait for the August sales and stock up for the next year.

Americans do not want this. They do not want another war in pursuit of regime change. They want relief from the affordability crisis. They want peace.

Today’s military strikes on Iran β€” carried out by the United States and Israel β€” mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.

Buy kosher dogs. They answer to a higher authority.

Alt for the video: The old Hebrew National hot dog commercial where the tag line is β€œWe answer to a higher authority,” meaning God and Kosher regulations. The spokesperson is dressed like Uncle Sam.
