I remember when it was Communists being described as the people who would do all that.

Happy 3/11! Another contribution to #100daysofuke2025, a self-duet video I made 2 years ago, here's All Mixed Up by 311. Left: bass ukulele, right: tenor ukulele #ubass #ukulele #reggae #alternativerock #90srock

Dire Straits' Money for Nothing main riff, low G tenor uke #ukulele #80srock #direstraits TikTok video by Dave is just Dave

I don't know that I'll go all in on the #100daysofuke2025 challenge but I still like to show off a little. www.tiktok.com/t/ZT29gJyKY/

It would be interesting to see how the results vary across platforms. I would figure FIF or Rich Mullins would dominate Bluesky while Skillet takes it home on X.

That's the one thing that history class didn't teach us about fascism, is that it gets pretty wildly popular.

I picked up guitar because of some real pieces of shit. It was hard learning that artists I loved were horrible but it does me no good to sit around regretting the time I spent enjoying Marilyn Manson, Eric Clapton, John Lennon, or even Ted Nugent to some extent.

One of his songs, "Look at Your Game, Girl" got covered by Guns N Roses on The Spaghetti Incident album.

The only thing that will convince the GOP of anything is to let them learn the hard way.

It's worked for the GOP since the 90s.

Really boring is what I wish for.

Let's talk about "subject to the jurisdiction thereof." I ain't no lawyer but if you don't have immunity like a diplomat, then how are you not subject to this jurisdiction? If you can be arrested here and imprisoned, that sounds like subject to this jurisdiction to me.

I'm thinking banjo might be my next instrument. I don't figure it would be huge leap since I'm already familiar with open G guitar

The loss of TikTok means a lot of your favorite creators are going to be scrambling for work. Please look into their Patreons, cash apps and Venmos. Please follow us on other platforms. A lot of us are about to lose our life’s work.

Murder is bad.

Which is why we want governments and corporations to stop committing so much.

I only have it because it bundles with T-Mobile

I God, will now create a new word:

Shituation.

This is when you’re stuck in a really shitty situation. This will be Oxford English Dictionary’s word of the year in one year’s time.

I might as well drop an example of what you can expect from me. Here's an alternate setting of "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" on a high G ukulele.

Excellent point. I'm hoping to see more engagement from people who aren't just trying to monetize.

That's what I'm thinking. I'm finding a lot of my favorite local people here but not a whole lot of activity yet. Threads seems to just mirror what people post on Facebook.

What if I told you Bluesky rhymes with a slang word for beer?

I noticed that the songs at the very start and very end of the playlist were used as TV themes. Is this an intentional sandwich?

So I hear posts on this platform are called "skeets?" Y'all skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet!

My fellow Christians, this Christmas, remember to keep Christ in Christmas… by removing yourselves in as many ways as possible from worldly systems of consumerism and capital that directly oppose the teachings of Jesus and focusing instead on love, peace, hope, justice and simple joy.

That's the bite in Barq's
