I really I wish chose a different more fan-friendly band to obsess over, but where’s the fun in that right?
Preferribly, one that releases music!

Oh yeah, add to everything else I'm left handed.. so... i'm a total clumsy dork, too.. lol.
Fellow lefty here, lefties rule!
Also I wouldn't take meds just because most of society does. If you feel like "yourself" and fine and can manage w/out taking meds, then you shouldn't.

With the year coming to an end, this is probably the surprising celeb death of 2023.
Sad. Must have been a heart attack.
I always hated Friends. Couldn't believe it was a huge craze back in the day.
I wouldn't be surprised if prescription drugs were involved. I never caught on to why it was so popular either. I've seen some eps and after a while it just gets kind of dumb.

Slash is definitely on monsters, 4 mins in, you can tell it's him.
#65 Re: Guns N' Roses » The General and Monsters » 86 weeks ago
I'll defend the General a little, it's got a nice gothic Halloweeny type feel to it. But I have no idea what the hell the lyrics are about.
But Monsters is definitely the more catchy song.

Appreciate the optimism but if they wanted to debut it in a bigger way, why did they want to release it on vinyl only with no promo from the band at all? Seemed like they treated it like a b side

Can't say I'm surprised at the predicatably disasterious turn of events here (note: to sky dog, I learned this time around). But I do feel for everyone who bought the single and got disappointed.
I'm not sure why they bothered announcing the release date unless it was some sort of test as to the public's appetite for new music. If that were the case, here's where they failed. They barely plugged it. I'm talking about The General and not Perhaps. They did all these shows and gave a few interviews. Did they ever mention anything about the song or make non-hardcore fans want to buy it at all? Nope. So why would they be surprised when the only people that ordered were diehards(the part of the fanbase they hate anyway)?
Someone needs to tell these guys the basics of promoting/plugging your brand in the 21st century, because it's obvious that they have no idea how to do this . Even if they have totally turned into a for profit machine that tours on "the hits only, they are not making as much as they should based on their management incompetence.

What is ailing us? Can it be defined?
I don't understand why holding powerful people accountable is bad...I also don't understand why Donald Trump has been allowed to behave like this for decades...
Donald Trump is a part of the problem, not the solution. And he insists on doubling down.
How on earth does anything Trump does help anyone or anything? HOW?!
You and I are aligned on this topic. Trump has and always will be about himself and how much he can gain/rip off people for his own gain. Did you read that Meadows flipped on him the other day and will testify in GA? Donald Trump has been allowed to get away with stuff because he is famous. He'll probably won't do much (if any) time.
And yeah, the GOP is part of the problem here. If they didn't support him or give him power, then he'd go away (in politics at least).
#69 Re: Guns N' Roses » The General confirmed next » 87 weeks ago
I'll be freaking honest. I thought they had this thing under control and would roll it out like a normal band and well would get the fan base excited again. They rolled out a video for the first time in ages. But that might have been pure luck.
I should have been more cynical like Lofton and Sky Dog.

He's just an incorrigible simp I think.
That is an excellent point…as i understand it, a beard is just a different kind of business relationship?
I understand why the person seeking a bears wants one…curious though what the beard gets…just money?
Also prestige of being married to a star like Will Smith. Power couple dynamics. I have no idea about the accuracy of this next statement, since it's been years since I read this but, I think Jada was using Will as a beard as well.
Anyone care to predict how the current House speakership situation will affect the default scheduled in just a few weeks?
Seems the Republicans are doomed to lose the house given how they’re handling all this…but we still need a speaker
They've been really incompetent at this. I can't even laugh because it's so fucked up. Jim Jordan keeps on trying and he keeps on losing votes. Other GOP house reps are getting death threats. The country might be better off with Hakim Jeffries being a temp speaker if only to get stuff done and avoid the default.
This is what happens when the crazies take over the party. There should be some leader (GOP side) who can just whip these guys into line and just nominate a moderate who will make sure the country can get stuff done. I have no idea whether or not Murphy is a moderate or even non crazy GOP member.
